    Think my mistake was doing it with players, I guess the NPC version teaches it to you.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Sense of accomplishment. It is fun, it's just the MMO kind of fun and not the GTA kind of fun Cyberpunk is.

    Something interesting appears to be happening after the 3rd zone. First three dungeons are good, more challenging mechanics than usual I feel. First trial was super hard, don't understand it yet.

    Land are boring and often frustrating when not in the right quantities. They should just powercreep them so that dual lands are worthless. Like they all have some sort of cycling or alternate mode, and a gay black person in the art.

    So what in my post made you think that I dispute that? I thought I had acknowledged this, as I agree with you. What I said was that in Elden Ring have no desire to pick to controller up and casually blast through a dungeon for an hour of fun. I do have long term plans for full playthroughs. I...

    Finished the first zone, did a bunch of the first dungeon to get WHM and RDM to 93. Dungeons are great as usual. MSQ is worse than ARR and I hate it. I'm skipping most scenes, so somehow I've done 3 or 4 of the 7 mcguffins but not actually seen them happen because apparently they are in these...

    Did you read my post after that when I explained it, or did you see it and fire off a reply without finishing?

    ER is lacking in boss music, cut scenes and casual replayability imo. The other things are genre defining yes. The ambient music is the best I've ever heard but other than the main theme, generic orchestral is good for it's purpose but I'm not humming this stuff IRL. Casual replayability, yes...

    House of the Dragon

    You need to prune your complaints. Like the grandson thing, he calls Aegon grandson too so the writers know, it's just shortened for more natural speech. I can imagine someone doing this. Some of it appears to be complaining about events being slightly out of order. Like Otto being sacked...

    I think it's 2nd behind Cyberpunk imo, but it's a worthy debate. Then probably Baldur's Gate.

    Lol did two tries on Malenia. Got her to 10% on my second try with Backhanr Blade. Felt really easy after the DLC, no time for more tries though :(

    1) 2nd Dye Channel 2) Graphics Update 3) Button Consolisation 4) Scifi Glams This is going to be a great expansion.

    This doesn't matter. Hermione is going to be black and they will "fix" other things. Hard boycott unless the entire cast is original race.

    A lot of you guys need to get gud. Game hasn't been out long enough to complain about the difficulty.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    There's a quest log section that has completed quests, so you can see where you are up to. I hated that stuff too but they pruned a lot of it and made it so you can do NPC parties in all dungeons if queue is too long. Imo don't skip anything, the story is half the point of the game and a lot...

    Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster Series

    The game forces you to use her and her OP ability. It's on you if you saw Runic and one of only two magic users and though "nah I'll use Gau and farm his shitty mechanic I hate"

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    In my first playthrough, the second half of the game I just did Comet Azur on every boss. Only ones it didn't work on were the Dragonlord in Farum Azula, Astel and Elden Beast because of their mobility. It worked on Malenia. I killed Astel with Moonveil Katana but couldn't beat the other two -...

    Where is the Sunflower? Is it the east entrance to Shadow Keep? I went through there and only found Commander Gaius.

    I did on my first try, was more survivable but didn't seem to do much damage. Perhaps I should try again. Any weapon suggestions?

    This. There's a flash at the top of his jump which is when you roll. Getting summon out is easy on him. Messmer is not hard. Now Commander Gaius on the other hand...

    Yeah you can either shoot a bird who runs at you and off a cliff for like 8k runes then reload, or kill the enemies there for 1k runes each. I think it's better for sanity to just kill the enemies. However DLC may have better rune farms, like the shadow zombie people in the first little town...

    I must have played about 30 hours and I'd guess there's 10 more mopping up all the side content?

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Are we playing the same game? I could read Messmer's actions and just needed to work on my skill level and build. Putrid Knight is ??? I don't even know where to start. The last boss looked easier.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    A lot of these bosses seem to have an anti summon fuck you attack at the start. That boss isn't even that bad, the bosses in the Shadow Keep are far far worse. I'm not skilled enough in this genre to not need a summon to grab aggro and create an attack window generally.

    Doesn't The Great Pyramid have a bedrock chamber at the bottom?

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    On the last boss, got to phase 2 and noped out. Not sure I can beat that, but I'll google every last Scadutree Fragment now and give it a go. Not sure what Asmongold's problem is, Messmer is a very fair boss, was a challenge I maybe could have done at 12 Scadutree Fragments (got him to 1%) but...

    Who the fuck is Midra lol. Actually seen a thumbnail with her in on YouTube though. Love this DLC. Everyone seems to be somewhere different in the side content.

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Found a secret remembrance boss from the cathedral questline, it's weak to bleed so one shot it. I think trying different weaknesses vs different bosses may help a lot in this DLC. Is he quitting on Messmer? I just did one serious try on him and got Phase 2 and 25% HP, I may regret saying this...

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    I suggest the Reduvia bleed dagger and another dagger on offhand, you get one in Limgrave right at the start from an invader near the lake with the dragon. Now I actually used a katana from killing the friendly npc near that location... However I'm crushing the DLC with Backhand Blades which...

    Asmongold generally has very good takes on whatever the internet is talking about today, particularily the psychology of people. I watch his YouTube clips. The only time I ever watched a stream was when Pewdiepie did it and I was working from home. It's like having a friend talk to you while...
