Morphine nuts need a nerf.

[Frank_Stein]

I dunno I find calling this knee jerk a little dismissive and amounts to telling someone to "git gud" in response to bad game design

Knee-jerk threads result in people misunderstanding the core issues at the root of a problem. You and I both agree that "morphine nuts" were not the problem here, and implementing some specific kneejerk solution of "nerf morphine nuts" wouldn't actually be the right fix.

Yes, it was dismissive. No, it isn't telling people to "git gud." This thread missed the core problem behind the frustration because it was more concerned with being posted as quickly as possible rather than examining the game design behind the frustration. It would have been much more effective if more care had been taken in exploring the second half of the post, about force feeding, and less with reacting to specific inciting gameplay.

That's a good point and I'm glad you agree about the dimissiveness. The "git gud" part was directed towards another post, and I probably could have been more clear about that.

I dunno, I feel like knee jerk tends to carry this negative connotation. While the OP might not have gotten to the heart of the matter, it recognized that something was off and started a discussion that is leading to a greater understanding of the issue and working towards how things can be improved for a better experience, and I'm glad they made this thread.
