    Whatever you need to help you sleep at night, tarnished. Sir Gideon Ofnir, the All-Knowing had the right idea!

    I have to actually go into the office today, so no Melania attempt until this evening. I'm at about 20 tries. All I need for the plat trophy...that fucking whore.

    Just got Malenia down to like 5% health in 2nd phase and died. If I hear "I am Malenia, Blade of Miquella" one more time...

    Well I beat the game. Did all the endings. I now only need Malenia or the Platinum trophy. Isn't happening tonight. I've got her phase 1 down easy, but I'm getting absolutely rocked in the second phase. Hopefully beat her tomorrow.

    Man, you guys were not kidding about the difficulty increase at the end of the game. It really lulls you into a false sense of security before Farum Azula and Haligtree. I'm paying for all my lazy habits in the earlier game.

    I'm so fucking blown away by how much content there was in the base game, especially after DS3 and Sekiro not really being that old so it's not like they were working on this game for 10 years. Anyway, I wouldn't be surprised if these crazy Japanese bastards don't already have a 40 hour DLC...

    Haligtree sucks. This is like Kelethin 1999 all over again.

    Oh yeah, I did give him that key. Shit...is there more to that guy? Don't think I've seen him since then.

    Locked chest is for Ranni the Witch's quest, I think. I got the key to that quite a bit later after beating Renalla. As for the other key, I think it's a dupe as well. Not sure why, though. Maybe there's another way into the academy other than getting key behind dragon?

    Will probably just save scum with a usb drive on PS5 for the endings.

    Should I do Farum Azula or Haligtree first? Does it matter?

    Yeah, a fair point. I'm currently at 40str/dex and 50fai.

    Blashphemous Blade is what I'm using. STR/FAI Greatsword with an absolutely awesome L2 attack and it heals you with every kill.

    I think I'm near the end. I killed Fire Giant* last night, but haven't spoken to Milena at the grace point there yet. I think that's the part that leads to the final fight yes? So I just have that and Haligtree to still do. I've putzed around in Haligtree and between the fog and the enemies, I'm...

    What are 'pest threads'?

    Are there any missable trophies/achievements on the first run? I'm not sure I'll do any NG+ and would like to get the Platinum if possible on the first run.

    I really need to work on parrying... How's this for impressive? Rune Level 1. No damage.

    Yup, that horse's ability to dash the fuck out of there makes all the difference in those outside fights.

    It's like putting a jet engine in the back of a Dodge and bragging that you beat a bunch of stock cars. Nobody think you're really the winner, but the idea and making of the jet engine car is still cool and interesting. EDIT: It's also a lot easier to watch a 28 minute video versus the movie...

    Wakandan, wtf are you talking about? I don't "feel off". I just think it's cool they have already gotten speed running under 30 minutes on the game that I'm spending so much time in and enjoying. Everything is ok.

    Yes, clearly. It's just still hilarious that there's even a path/exploit/etc that lets you do it.

    These autists never cease to amaze me. I'm over 100 hours and only now entering the capital and these dudes have figured out sub-30 minute paths to the end.

    Look, man. I'm not the young buck who Platinumed Bloodborne without any summons(mostly because I didn't even know how the fuck to summon someone). Now I summon, physik, run motherfuckers off cliffs. Whatever it takes! Once I had kids, I lost all honor in gaming.

    I've gone from feeling overpowered to being utterly emasculated and knowing only future failure that I haven't even experienced yet. Thanks, FOH.

    So pretty much everything past Radahn, I've felt overpowered. I get to Rykard and he's kicking my ass and I'm like, "Finally, I caught up to content that is my level!". SPOILER(probably?) - Nope, you're just supposed to use that snake spear in his room. I'm still too OP. Gonna avoid leveling any...

    And I'm saying it's not the ring dismount mapped to L3, it's duck/stealth that is mapped to L3. Ducking is what is actually removing you from your mount in this scenario. Removing the mapping completely would remove the ability to stealth(at least on PS5).

    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    It's not the ring that is dismounting you, it's ducking into stealth mode. You need to remap duck/stealth to fix the dismount issue. I swapped it with spell change(up on d pad). Obviously, this is only if you're dismounting inadvertently during combat.

    Did I fuck up anything by doing the assassination contract thing in Volcano Manor?
