The sci fi hollywood music was very inappropriate. Looks like another generic souls game. Only thing that seems somewhat interesting is the mounted combat.

Getting tired of souls games. Couldnt be me!

If anyone is having a fromsoft itch in anticipation of gamings magnus opus i recommend a randomized sekiro run to tide you over. Im having a blast playing thru this again, almost feels like a new game

God i love the final boss fight. Its so sick. The music, the pacing, the location, boss. Everything about it is Gamer Heaven. I wanted to cry (i still do). The greatest game ever made: Elden Ring

As someone who has played but never beaten a DS game before, I made a vagabond guy thinking I'll be pure melee and probably balance str and dex pretty evenly. Reading stuff has made me second guess that idea, though. It seems like it won't really keep up as the game goes on and doesn't have any tricks to it without some magic.

Now I'm tempted to make a full str meaty boy, or a str/faith paladin... any tips? Am I just wrong that a balanced vagabond guy will be kind of underpowered?

My tip is to not read this thread or much at all. Theres no point in speculating over anything if you have not beaten the game. Just enjoy it and have fun

I haven't really found anything in the Lands Between to indicate that they can or should be saved. Is there a 'annihilate everything, return it to the primordial void' ending?

Everyone is sketch and no one seems to have good intentions lol

I feel like I've been playing an entirely different series of games to you guys? The Souls games and Sekiro were so good because by and large the combat was clean and deterministic. There has never been anything as janky and bullshit as the boss just pushing the 'you die instantly' button five minutes into a grueling fight, which I imagine is why they removed that element of the fight once they saw what it looked like under live conditions

Yeah ill take Dodging for 500

Spent a lot of time helping people co-op through Malekith last night, largely had fun clowning around

But I do not like that his hits apply a dot.
There's something exhilarating about being in combat, a boss striking you down to <10% of your health, and needing to put in a shitload of distance and find a safe opening to pound your flask.
If you get hit with one of his dots, well, forget about that.

Status effect dots are fine, because I have to be standing in the poop for a while
Auto dots on hit I think is pretty lame

Just dont get hit

It’s actually funny how this story is just a more refined version of Bloodbornes story.

I managed to finally beat the Elden Beast...with the Carian Retaliation glitch. I'll be honest, I have no problem using summons and magic, but I do feel like that was a bit of a cheap trick. I don't think there's really a way for me to go back and do it again, cause I'm not going back and replaying the whole game for that one fight. Maybe I should just put down a summon sign and help other people until I beat it "legitimately"? I don't know, I feel a bit incorrect saying I "beat" Elden Ring at this point. Maybe I should just go back and finish Sekiro or Bloodborne.

Post carian feel lol. Gamers with shame.com

I'm hoping the egg is not the main DLC entry point - there was a line about touching "the armor" to enter the land of shadows at the end of the trailer, so I'm assuming the egg might just be related to the DLC, rather then a sole entry point.

You can just ask a goon to help beat mohg hes not that bad

I've beat Mohg, the implication of the DLC being behind him means everything in it will be as hard or harder, and that's also at a point in the level curve where levels are less effective at giving you more power. I'm probably up to it, I'm just more interested in more of the mid game of Elden Ring then more of the end game.

Plus it's also that it's super deep in the game if I need to prep a new save file/start fresh with the DLC/do a new build, etc.

Its based around the difficulty of end game miyazaki cobfirmed
