how is that spell different than pretty much any homing soul mass lol

It stays in the place where you cast it rather than hovering around your character, so you can set up several in different locations while moving around

Manage to bumble my way to the capital but they won't let me in without more greater runes.

I love how every single mine dungeon I've seen so far has an area like 2-2 of demon souls where you can jump down a shaft for some bonus loot and it's way less tedious now that you can actually jump. I've had multiple side quests telling me to go to the festival but roundtable told me to head to the capitol. I wasn't sure where to head to first so I went with the capitol. As soon as I found the map I headed straight for the nearest mine and managed to end up at a hidden divine tower. Not quite as crazy as the mine I went to that had 3 separate grace points leading me to a cool dragon fight and a secret back door into the capitol region that doesn't require taking the grand lift.

lol I'm just now exploring stormveil castle and I'm fine with that. I've just accepted that this is a multi month long game

I'll be playing for like 5 years, probably. even if I suddenly get 100 hours I'm just going to want to make a new character. I think this is just my permanent secondary game

so if there a DLC it's got to be about the aliens, right? it's crazy how little prominence radahn single handedly holding back alien hellbeasts from falling to earth has been given inside the main plot, they have to be building this to something

got the magma wyrm's scale sword and I have a new favourite weapon. Then I went to the following area and got scared and ran away because I'm nowhere close to being done with Liurnia or really any of the main quest in it. Then I went into a big manor and it's scary too

did you beat the game yet? cuz (lore spoiler, maybe final boss spoiler) the source of all magic, including the Elden Ring and associated runes, are from the stars. the only things native are the Greater Will and the fire giants lol

Are we sure the Greater Will is even native? I got the impression it was another outer god-type thing that just happened to land here first

Yeah this is correct I don't remember off the top of my head which incantation it is, but the description for it specifically says the greater will sent the elden beast to the lands between to create the elden ring

Oh yeah, I found it, it's Elden Stars.

It says: "It is said that long ago, the Greater Will sent a golden star bearing a beast into the Lands Between, which would later become the Elden Ring."

Lol no I walked in and ran and jumped onto the rock on the right hand side that’s just above them and just tossed my base level flame spell at them until they died. Had to periodically roll when the scythe guy threw at me but once he went down the wheel guy couldn’t do poo poo to me

No there's a point after that in the questline where, if you have a key item early, you'll basically be yelling at the screen when it just doesn't come up in conversation

Was tricky getting my twin blade to +7 for Godrick as I'd wasted some early stones on weapons that didn't pan out. But post Godrick found a cave flooded with SS3 and then one right after up a cliff riddled with SS4 so I suddenly jumped to +13 within the space of an hour lol

lol I did that fight yesterday and hated it too. I generally don't like the "remember this boss from earlier? Well, now there's too of them" bosses, it's one of my only real complaints about the game. At least they mix it up by making it two variants of the same guy, but still.

I did a lot today, finished Ranni’s questline which was awesome, the last boss of it was insane looking but kind of easy. Also kicked Rykard’s rear end and made my way through the capital until I got to Godfrey who was one of the easiest bosses I’ve ever seen. The capital is insanely cool looking
