kazil posted:They hyped the poo poo out of George R R Martin writing for Elden Ring. I'm sure that got quite a few people interested that wouldn't normally be. It was me. I got suckered into it because I heard bits and pieces but not enough to know what I was really getting into. Luckily Microsoft refunded my money after about 10 minutes of gameplay when I realized "ah gently caress, it's a Dark Souls game." My real life is hard enough. edit: I don't know why they call it a snipe when I'm the one about to get lit up from all the DS fans

I'm Mildly impressed they aped Axel F but tweaked it enough so they couldn't be sued.

Yeah it's exactly the same as the dark souls games, they've just got different names for things. GRRM's involvement was a pure marketing gimmick, by the looks of it he maybe made up some of the names and that's it.

You don't remember in Dark Souls 1 where you fought Ornstein and Smough and then later you had to fight Bornstein and Stough?

DACK FAYDEN posted:It can be either! There's the argument that there are no menus in Middle-earth because there are no restaurants in Middle-earth, just places like inns that serve whatever they've got, which I don't find very convincing. And then there's the argument that the Uruk-hai do not have a reason to know what a menu is because they don't know what restaurants are. Which really I also don't buy but I mean, it makes more sense. I am reading The Fellowship of the Ring right now and Tolkien describes the super cool dragon firework that he brought for Bilbo's birthday as going past with the force of an "express train" which is something they certainly do not have in Middle Earth either. That stuck out as really odd because so much of the narrative voice is in-universe to the point where every now and then there's a footnote to tell you the Elvish name of some irrelevant river, like the reader will go "oh yes, of course, the famous Lonarcadin river, I didn't know that's what the hobbits called it."

The fox did nothing wrong, unlike some else whose name began with an F. One of his names. Bloody gnomes.

The fox is one of my favorite parts of Fellowship! It doesn't need to exist, and adds nothing, but the story would be worse without it.
