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.
regardless X on an xbox style controller would be “use item” or switch between twohand on a Nintendo style controller. There is no common controllerscheme where it would be dodge.
There are TONS of games that use X as a dodge button. Just because the big game dev, fromsoft, use another button for roll, doesn’t mean no game does. The joke isn’t about what button you press, it’s about getting someone to press literally any button that would mess them up in a normally safe situation.
These people are clearly incapable of separating the joke from reality. Who cares what button is being pressed. The joke is the same even if you put some hieroglyphics in place of it.
Ah good ole’ “You really care about this” as an attempt to discredit an opposing argument. Can’t let them know we’ve run out of ideas to support our failing point of view!
I think controller is only ‘necessary’ for souls games due to them not supporting keyboard and mouse well. I’d prefer to use keyboard for it, but all of the inputs and menu-ing is fucked up.
Tbh, its a testament to how good the games are, that they are enjoyable despite a huge lack of QoL across the board
I think DS3 is X. At least one of the Dark Souls games is, I have it ingrained in my muscle memory.

Nope
DS3 uses the usual souls controls
Playstation controller 🤢
Steam deck controller > PlayStation controller > Xbox controller > Nintendo switch pro controller

You are really invested in this now aren’t you?
I mean, I am too. The joke doesn’t make sense as it’s written, but it would if there’s a different game that uses X to backstep.

Nobody said they didn’t. I’m saying I don’t know what game this meme is about.
But since there’s TONS of examples, feel free to give us some.

Is this like an autism thing?

Tbf, I thought the exact same thing. B/O would be the right input for dodge/backstep in all From’s Souls games, including Bloodborne and Elden Ring.
Yes. The only recent FromSoft game where this could happen is AC6, but it doesn’t have player messages.
Controller player 🤢
Controller is practically necessary for some games, and souls/souls-like games are a great example of that.

Only for Soulslikes and fighting games 😔
Be it PlayStation, Xbox, or Nintendo, the right-most face button is the only one that is not X on any of them.
