This is like saying a meal tastes better if you eat it with a toothpick.

some food does taste better with a stick

increasing mob life is a legitimate aspect of difficulty scaling since it requires more consistent performance from the player.
William Martinez
If Dark Souls enemies dealt half damage it wouldn't become huge with the casuals as a the hardest game of all time shit.
More health is boring, but double damage is unironically a good way to make a hard mode. I don't know why people still complain about this, as if development time could just be added to make complete structural AI changes on a mode for 5% players.

Landon Fisher
How is Monster? Always been curious about it
Colton Morgan
it's entertaining if you can put up with everything urasawa writes being contrived
Mason Roberts
Zone of the Enders or 2nd Runner, or both, can't remember.

It's great. It doesn't feel like a typical manga/anime series. It's kind of novelesque if you know what I mean, I'm not sure how to say it in a less faggy way. It's very dense and has interesting complex characters. It's not afraid to take things slow and go on what might seem to be unrelated side tangents. There is action but it's often brief and intense. It's not for everyone so I'd recommend checking it out and making up your own mind.
Sebastian Rodriguez
10/10. Grimmer is best boy.
Oliver Smith
Does the dick you slurp taste good with my nut?
Jayden Garcia
Might check it out then. Cheers anons
Parker Morgan
There are plenty of Johanns. The real question is, who is the Grimmer of vidya?

>fling so much shit at you that the FPS drops

Sometimes extra damage can be good, but only if health is directly your "fuckup allowance" and skill is expressed by your ability to avoid damage, in any other case giving the enemy extra damage is only going to make it harder to engage with the systems that actually take skill.
Kayden Ross
I haven't watched Monster since I was in middle school
I remember loving it, but having a hard time sitting through it because of the pacing
I think it's time to revisit it, maybe I'll like it even more as an adult
Jackson Wilson
Good show ruined by the ending.
Dylan Gray
is this anime overrated or is it worth a watch?
