"How do speech bubbles work?"

Centurri's style is heavily influenced by manga so it's probably intended to be read right to left.

Even then it doesn’t work great. You can only guess wo says what because of the context.

at least the colo(u)rs match up

In Souls-like games, pressing the 'dodge' button when on a narrow platform is a very easy way to accidentally jump off the platform and die horribly.

What controllers use X for the dodge button? Even with over 2k hours in From Software games combined this joke didn't register with me lol

[–] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 6 points 4 months ago

It's usually pressed with a move command to make you dodge roll, but if you are stationary it makes you take a step back for whatever reason.

Took me five attempts to understand this is read right to left

Why X isn't dodge usually B/o?

[–] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Dark souls isn't the only game with a dodge. In fact, in dark souls traditionally just pressing dodge will get you a back step, not a roll, so I'd argue that this isn't specifically a dark souls reference, just action RPGs in general.

Because the person who posted the comic said it's a direct reference to ds3 (not the comic artist, mind you, just the poster here) it must absolutely be ds3, and nothing else.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 0 points 4 months ago (3 children)

I think DS3 is X. At least one of the Dark Souls games is, I have it ingrained in my muscle memory.

[–] BurningTurtle@feddit.org 23 points 4 months ago (1 children)

DS3 uses the usual souls controls

[–] Ookami38@sh.itjust.works 1 points 4 months ago

It's okay that it's not from dark souls. The joke still works, some games use X to dodge, and some of them include multiplayer and narrow platforms with death below.

Damn Fia got stacked.
