OTOH the main ultrawide fix for Sekiro also let you stop R3 from centering the camera, so if there's something similar I'm installing it immediately anyway.

If you try and fail to lock onto something while moving, the camera will snap in the direction you were going. Now you're steering relative to the new camera orientation, which, if you had been running away from something while looking back at it, points you right back toward it. Sometimes it just runs you off a cliff.

That image only mentions playstation versions, though? Capping the PS5 version at 60fps makes sense. Do they mention a fps cap on the PC anywhere?

But this is something you might actually end up doing (if you want to), since there is crafting and there's all sorts of animals, like deer, birds, etc. and the crafting screen showed 'thin animal bones' as one of the items needed to make arrows.

Just hit a blanket made of patches that somehow shoved me off a cliff, and then laughed about how it was going to loot my body. Then I escaped and met it again, and it promised to become a better blanket, that warms and comforts people instead of trying to smother them.

Then later it shoved me off another cliff, despite, again, being a blanket with no arms.

i just noticed that during the bit where they show off co op and they fight the boss on the horse, the other player uses an actual dragon's head to breathe fire on the horse, not like a stone dragon head or whatever. I assume you can get that from Godrick's boss soul or whatever, maybe it's an arcane tool?

Godrick's character animation rig is loving insane, one of the most complicated looking animation rigs I've seen in any video game.

People in various comments sections have expressed an issue with the addition of crafting, but the alternative in DS/BB was to farm souls then visit a vendor to buy x999 of the item they wanted. It's interesting to see that this game will be full of neutral life, or just slightly less aggressive things that have useful resources. Hopefully we will just be able to find the simple things we need, when we want them, relatively quickly. There might be other stuff not shown like being able to retreive unbroken arrows.. I really hope they show another preview closer to release.

It seems obvious why Godrick was showcased as a boss fight. What a creation.


And I think that dragon head breathing fire might be a...what's the word...spectre?

One of those Omni leaks (who knows if they're real) says that the player character is able to modify themselves in some way.


Also, there's something about the way the drake hits the player that is more convincing/tangible/discernible than their previous games.

I've often felt that the big boss makes a swiping motion and what part of it actually hit you was always fuzzy to me.

But if you look at the drake fight (I've got the video lined up at that time) there is just the perfect blend of sound, blood and sparks. And it is the actual edge of the drake's wing hitting you. And the actual pointy bit of its nose.

Just a friendly reminder of what it looks like.

We'll do punctuation later.
fwiw omni did get a ton of stuff right that was shown off in the trailers

but i think 'grafting' just refers to all the extra arms godrick & some of the other enemies in stormveil have, they're likely all stolen from tarnished they've hunted. you can see godrick in the 2019 teaser holding a cut-off arm too

the dragon head attack used by the second player in that footage seems to be the same dragon head godrick uses though, but i think it's likely a spirit or skill etc. gained from defeating godrick somehow, going off what we know for now anyway

Yeah, I keep forgetting that he's the first thing that they showed in the 2019 teaser
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e5wwSxl0atc

I've always wondered what the character *is* with the long red hair that's seen during the bit where the narrator says 'look up at the sky, it burns'. My immediate impression was that it was some sort of troll looking thing with a big nose. And the character running with the spear that 'breaks' the elden ring has really cool looking armor, and I hope it's in the game. But yeah, I wonder if any of that will be in the actual game, the footage of the woman holding a staff and the man hammering something were outsourced to a different company who also did some other concept art stuff, so I doubt that will be in the game, but it would be weird if Godrick was the only thing from that teaser that ended up in the game.

i wonder when the embargo ends for the youtubers who have access to the network test, i was assuming it would be today at like 9 am.
