J posted:Is there a point of no return towards the end at all? Or a point where you're committed to a particular ending? I just got to the erdtree thorn wall, and the maiden showed up and said hey let's burn it go to the land of giants, then the finger reader grandma by the lift said hey these are forbidden lands and burning the erdtree is a cardinal sin, turn back, then I talked to some guy with a hat covering his face saying hey go underneath the capital and find the three fingers so you can burn it the honorable and proper way, something something lord of chaos and that sounded like two flavors of the same bad ending to me. I don't really want to commit to either of those things. So spoilers on endings You either have the girl touch the fire and burn the erdtree for you, or go in the leyndell basement and get the blessing to use the fire yourself. Either way you will have to burn the erdtree down. Choosing to keep the fire for yourself locks you into the madness ending, having the girl burn it lets you choose from the other 4. In terms of no return, once you make your choice about who gets the giants fire the roundtable hold will be on fire and some npc stuff changes, but otherwise not much. However beating the zone after the fire Farum Azula will permanently change the game state, with smoke effects globally on the map and much of the capital city layout changed.

So, protip: stay the gently caress out of Gael Tunnel unless you're appropriately leveled for the area, the grace point is at the bottom of a drop and you can't warp out from it  Apparently there's an exit if you just rush through and keep left, but still kinda bullshit IMO.

Jimbot posted:Raya Academy is some real garbage. Dunno why they decided to put so many grace points together in Stormveil then spread them out across gauntlets of groups of machine gun spamming magicians. Nothing speaks of fun and challenge like dodging or getting hit by a hundred magic missiles in three seconds. They have a critical weakness to sprinting jump attacks to the face

heard about a sword of similar levels of ridiculousness as the Sword of Fire & Night and the Moonveil Katana, the Blasphemous Blade, and decided I wanted it. Went into Volcano Manor to get it, and promptly realized that there were more inquisitor golem things than I bargained for. But then I heard if you do the Volcano Manor quests, you can just skip the dungeon! So I started doing that and then the final request takes place in the Mountains of the Giants, and you can't get there unless you've beaten Leyndell. So I start going through Leyndell and god drat this place is huge. I definitely understand why people compared it to Yharnam, it's basically that but shiny instead of gothic horror. e: oh god, it really is Yharnam, I found the real (original?)

Man. Enjoying the game but this pipe maze sewer is boring dogshit. No I will not be coming back to figure out how to access those one way door areas, I don't give a poo poo if they hid an RPG behind one. The late game is really making me not feel guilty about using mimic tear and sword of N&F. Gotta get my hands on some bullshit bleed now for the trifecta

here's a q for the crew that's here in this thread, i ate a rune arc before checking out to have a nice smoke break, does the rune arc persist through closing the game or do i need to eat another one? i know that i'm the one who's been saying "ah it's just like dark souls 3's ember" this entire time but i think i can let it slip here, in the safe place of the something awful forums, that i might not know what i'm talking about

Blaziken386 posted:heard about a sword of similar levels of ridiculousness as the Sword of Fire & Night and the Moonveil Katana, the Blasphemous Blade, and decided I wanted it. Leyndell is imo the pinnacle of Fromsoft level design and I would love an entire soulslike game set inside a similarly-magnificent lived-in city. There's so much to find there it is absurd. I spent an entire day exploring it and didn't even see everything. Everything about its aesthetic is great and after spending a day there I can pretty clearly recognize where I am from whatever landmarks are in eyesight, so despite being massively complex it's manageable. e: Yharnam in contrast felt very muddy and indistinguishable to me. Bright colors and vast distances and constant overlooking vistas in Leyndell do a lot to make everything more visually coherent deep dish peat moss fucked around with this message at 09:18 on Mar 5, 2022 |

Any of you know, I stumbled upon the rya quest and volcano manor and I realize it’s about killing tarnished. Is this a quest thing that locks you into a bad ending or particular ending? Or should I just do the whole quest? You can spoil it for me if need be. Thanks.

drat, after returning to Radahn this morning I finally beat him. What an awful fight. ^^ I definitely feel your pain as a level 56 spellblade. I ended up just hoarfrost stomping him enough, and got lucky to get the aggro away from myself eventually and having him close enough to stomp him to death.

Where the heck am I supposed to go in the academy? After the dog boss, I did that whole rooftop loop 3 times trying to figure out which direction to go and couldn't figure it out. Like, you kick down that ladder to shortcut to the first bonfire and theres a couple of small side areas on the way. No idea where to go for the critical path though. I did find a key I think but I don't remember any locked doors.

Go right from the big area with the scythe golems, hop the fence onto the little protruding platforms, go up the hill dodging the giant bowling balls. You end up at an elevator and then it's the boss

It's a neat feature. hey that was me! Just finished. I think i got... the most mundane ending? my ending spoiler...... was really hoping to see my realdoll Ranni again, pretty sure i finished out her quest correctly? I thought I was heading to a bad ending but kinda just became the Elden Lord, final pic of me was sitting on a throne with the burned tree in the background.... said it was the age of rupture or something along those lines... curious how many endings there are... seen people here talking about bosses I never saw at the end. I was kinda rushing to the end, if i'm being completely honest some of the last areas I was just over with and wanted to see an ending... well, wish granted I got a somewhat lackluster one Willfrey fucked around with this message at 10:28 on Mar 5, 2022 |

Also I tried that dog boss like 3 times and thought it was loving impenetrable. It's move set is absolutely ridiculous. Then I remembered I had the summon spells I often forget to use and lol it's the easiest boss in the game so far if you can distract it for 2 seconds.

Jerusalem posted:So Wolf Bro and Giant Chill Blacksmith are cool dudes and the nice lady gave me the horsey, but I have..... concerns..... about exactly what their end goals are It's important to note that literally nobody on Team Ranni likes Seluvis. But yeah Ranni's goals are not that complicated and I'm surprised people wring their hands about them that much: gently caress the Greater Will, the Two Fingers, and Marika in roughly that order. She's planning on usurping them all. Willfrey posted:hey that was me! You didn't trigger the ending you were going for correctly. Did you put the ring on her finger in the Cathedral?
