It's about time for my once per decade ban for being a consistently terrible poster.
Like on the one hand it's good to be surprised, but on the other hand I find it absolutely hilarious they put that....weapon?...in the game so I am encouraged to go track it down. Because it's perfectly fitting and also just hilariously awesome. Real Monster Hunter energy.

If I'm remembering it right GRRM wrote the backstory for the world and they picked stuff out of that. So yeah probably a lot of that.

GRRM is really good at world building but has a habit of letting narrative get away from him.

Is there the equivalent of the stealth archer build from Skyrim? I’m getting too old to learn new play styles.

To a point but you'll probably get stonewalled by bosses if you're hoping stealth to be your main tool since it doesn't look like you can stealth them.
Bows have always been really useful for clearing stuff in between in souls games in my experience though. Also if you're co-oping with a friend you can just plink bosses from range too.

I know absolutely nothing about Elden Ring and I would like to stay that way, but Dark Souls and especially Bloodborne loving Went Places and if Elden Ring gets batshit in any similar way then I might get it and go in completely blind.

Do not tell me if it does or doesn’t but I sure hope Miyazaki went full sicko mode.

This is an optical illusion caused by the oversized hands of the tarnished.

That's actually really good to do early cause the infinite poo is in that cell and it cheeses a huge amount of the game. Plus it's a skip all the way to irithyll dungeon.
