I like the Skeleton Bros, because if they die, a few seconds later they will pop back up. Wolves do more damage, but some bosses just splat them too fast.

Last Celebration posted:I guess it’s a very little thing but I like these spirt jellyfish that are just vibing in Elden Ring. They’re the very rare “enemy” that doesn’t aggro unless you draw first blood and mostly they seem helpful since they seem to like hovering around dungeons that aren’t super conspicuous. They’re just neat! What’s even cooler is that when you aggro one, they turn from a mellow blue to red. If there are others nearby, the red “angry” state will transfer to them as well - you can watch it happen. However they have to be in close physical proximity to transfer the aggro state. If there are other jellyfish a couple dozen yards off, they remain passive. I was playing with this just yesterday.

Oxxidation posted:elden ring lets you summon the ghosts of ancient heroes and skeleton hordes but two of the uncontested best are a jellyfish and an unhealthy dog I am in a zone my character has no business being in, and goop pup just carried me on a boss that would have been brutal otherwise. Much like persona 5’s reaper, it turns out that giving a tough enemy the flu is very effective

For me it's the skeleton militia that does the trick. Ancient monsters or ravenous war hounds got nothing on a couple of boney lads with rotting spears who will just keep getting back up over and over.

The only thing keeping the Shadow Clone from being an instant win button is its total disregard for self preservation. But God bless that gooey little weirdo for soaking up big combos while I chip away at the boss's giant rear end.

I love that in Elden Ring, Godrick the Grafted is just picking up random dudes and stapling them to himself and multiple NPCs casually mention “grafting” like that’s just a thing that happens now and then. “Oh that’s ol’ godrick. Grafting dudes to himself. You know how it goes”. No I loving don’t know. Also thank you fromsoft for A) simplifying the weapon upgrade system and B) FINALLY getting rid of weapon degradation

That loving easy I imagine that the problem is they went from 4 tiers of upgrade materials to 9, and probably gave up trying to come up with names for each tier that still had a clear progression and said "gently caress it, numbers"

Tales From the Borderlands is an alright game, but I do love a good late title card, and I love title sequences integrated into the media in fun ways. I don't know, it's my favorite part of this game so far. I'm just playing to see the next title sequence.

The problem is it shows up Smithing Stone [1] 1 for example, and it took a bit to figure out what it was showing. the only reason I realized what it was doing immediately was because I’d been burned by the same thing in Bloodborne previously - i wonder how many people went through the whole game without doing chalice dungeons and thus learning why coldblood dew [1] x2 isn’t equivalent to coldblood dew [2] to actually tie this back to the thread though I really loved how the tiered/numbered chalice ritual materials had item portraits that generally showed the same thing getting weirder/more arcane/worse. that game had such a strong sense of theme expressed through its items, and it’s the only thing I can think of that I’ve just sat down and read through inventory descriptions for a while, ever Rockman Reserve has a new favorite as of 07:18 on Mar 8, 2022 |

I like one of the boss weapons you get from him. Halfway through his fight he replaces his arm with the head of a nearby dragon to give himself a grisly dragon corpse arm cannon. You can craft a weapon from his soul to emulate this, but rather than puppeteer a severed dragon corpse head you instead somehow procure a comically small dragon with a comically huge head that just kind of sits on your arm and lets you punch things with it.

I don't know which thread to put this in, but it's going here because as a non-player, I love this dumb poo poo, and it's definitely consequences of an intended decision. Escape from Tarkov, an FPS/MMO hyvrid game, uses real-world currencies as its in-game currencies. (Not talking real-money trade stuff, I mean like 'this enemy drops Euros'). For some reason, they decided that the exchange rates of these currencies should be accurately based on real-world currency exchange rates. This is updated in real time. This has caused the game's economy to crash because of real-world Russian sanctions.
