    Elden Ring - From Software + George RR Martin

    Some folks asked for my info on my goofy ass setup so I created the below diagram. Basic principle is simple: mouse in right hand for pointing camera, gamepad in left hand for controlling character movement, pedals for actions with "hold" behavior like sprinting or guarding. Pedals are poor for...

    Satisfactory

    Not really. Because there are almost no restrictions on belt design and the inclusion of a vertical dimension the utility in really precise layouts is small compared to Factorio or Dyson Sphere Program. In other words, the difference in cost, power draw etc, between an ultra-clean and efficient...

    which is fine because that 30% is front-loaded, so it covers the area you're in unless you're a nolifer who showed up to work today being sleep deprived over a singleplayer game release of all fuckin things

    there's quite a few mini-quests that require you to swing at something with no guidance that it's the right choice. There's one that . It's a little obnoxious because you don't know if you're permanently failing the quest or just doing it.

    I'm kinda considering respeccing once that unlocks to something like a spellsword or maybe fully caster I dunno. I'm currently using a str build now with a greatsword and it's fine, but this is such a huge game it'd be nice to try different options.

    The flow I've settled in is to wander to each location, "clear" it, and then check https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Interactive+Map to see if I've missed anything. It got tiring trying to be thorough in each area, knowing that you might be missing a high-value Smithing Stone, weapon etc...

    The torch guy arresting your movement is somehow so much more insulting than if they had pikes.

    Just did what I would consider my first "jumping puzzle", pictured left, because I saw something on the top of it. Was a player marker, sons of bitches.

    you will probably feel dumb later when you're drowning in a bunch of low tier weapons that would've helped you but are now useless.

    In prev games you could get a lightning or other elemental affinity weap that would scale with int. Not sure if that'll repeat here

    PS5 is probably the better version today, but I'd argue that my crazy gamepad + mouse control setup is superior to either mouse/kb or gamepad only. Really, buy it for all platforms and preorder the switch version. From deserves your $$$.

    Starting as a wretch I'm pre-emptively boosting str and dex just so when I get a weapon I can use it. Club does pretty well tho.

    pretty cool vid. What's funny is that in my business I'm really interested in bumps and imperfections in the roadway that get you the realistic motion as you traverse the roadway. I'm surprised this track doesn't have more of that in GT7.

    I'll be enjoying my half-assed PC port with troll messages, but it'll be tempting to switch to a modded experience after a few dozen more hours.

    Sure. It's more boring than you think tho. I just have an xbox controller in my lap and my feet on a couple of pedals. The pedals aren't really necessary because of how minimal the dark souls controls are. Elite Dangerous, GW2 etc take advantage of them more. The crazier versions of this...

    Yeah I played DS2/3 with an xbox 360 controller. It's fine. I like being able to look around with a mouse and I hate switching between having camera control (right joystick) and all my ABXY actions.

    I use a single pedal and a triple pedal from iKKEGOL I got these when I went back to GW2 to switch fire/water/lightning/earth constantly on my elementalist. Has turned out to be a huge benefit for other games too. I use them to alleviate having to hold down buttons or replace really busy...

    Welp, got a couple hours in. Unlocked the horse. Game runs fine, a little stutter here and there and the lack of ultrawide is funny but who cares. Game controls are fine, I'm using mouse + gamepad + some pedals. The dodgeroll seems delayed by about 250ms by design, but I kinda wish the...
