Is there something I'm missing in sellia crystal tunnels somewhere or are they really trying to say I have to sneak through the tunnels every time I want to attempt fallingstar beast?
Yes, I kicked the ladder down
The beast type monsters are so annoying to deal with. They are way more aggressive than anything else. Just got to Caelid and keep feeling like I just pizza'd when I should french fried.
I'm waiting for someone to release a full summoner build because based on the little I've seen in my 16 hours with ashes, incantations, sorceries and weapon skills I bet you could make it work and make your summons practically immortal while also wrecking face
The joke writing feels very very lazy. Especially for the New Zealand "crew" that has made so many great things. It's not far off from the over the top, not funny at all character Taika played in Free Guy
This game is a lot like old Nintendo games. Not much info on anything in the game itself, open world that you can explore and find secrets or powerful upgrades if you're inclined. Character power tied more directly to items/spells you find and no experience bar to speak of.
A lot of that isnt...
Found the first boss that made me want to throw my controller. Erdtree Avatar.
Could not figure out a way to reliably dodge or block his holy lasers attack. Took me like 20 attempts to finally beat him by just doing hit and run tactics while trying to get behind the erdtree when he used that...
They timed their release poorly. It's From Software. Even if Elden Ring was a PS5 exclusive like Bloodborne was a PS4 exclusive it would have won the hype war
I can guarantee you people are going to find useful setups for most sorceries in this game after it's been out for a few months. Sorcery by itself sucks, kinda. But I can already imagine insane setups with certain weapons and ashes of war. The combos that are possible in this game seem endless...
Elden Ring doesnt really have quests. Not really. It has interactions with mysterious NPCs that give you cryptic messages or ask you for favors. Its subtle but there is actually a difference. You never feel like you have a distinct objective because you never feel like you're being ordered...
Tried firing up the interactive map on my phone since I'm playing on ps5 after I killed Godrick to see what I missed in Limgrave. Lol. Wouldn't recommend trying to use that on a phone
That's not what I was saying. I'm saying people are going to be experimenting for a long, long time and there are going to be a lot of interesting, powerful builds that people find for years to come
Thats the way its always worked. You can't roll on button press because holding circle makes you sprint. It was always button release. But there seems to be some input lag there that I never noticed before now.
So after the latest update Im suddenly getting what I assume are the frame drops other people were talking about on PS5 earlier in the thread. Even with full stamina bar sometimes there is "input lag" before the game recognizes that I actually hit Circle to roll. Its mostly fine but it really...
Because of the weapon skill + wielding options + ashes of war there are probably over 100 builds you could make in this game. And that's not even including consumable weapon coatings. I'm only 10 hours in but as soon as I find a lightning ash of war and/or lightning weapon I plan on going...
Right. You don't really know without an inordinate amount of trial an error.... on anything and everything you fight.
I like the lack of handholding in these games, but some things may as well not even be mechanics if they are enemy specific AND don't have any real in game tells.
I dont think I've ever actually understood how parry/stagger work in any of these games. Like I get how its supposed to work, but... it's as goddamn mysterious as the game worlds themselves
Did you guys who are commenting on that Asmongold video actually watch it? Because all the comments about it make it seem like... you definitely didn't watch it.
I havent actually gotten a chance to play too much but I'm 8 hours in and am pretty sure I havent progressed the main story line at all. I've only killed 3 bosses and none of them were named Margrit.
