  • As much as i want to agree, the obscurity and hiding all the story in the item descriptions / worldbuilding is part of why it works. You can read it if you like and puzzle and wonder about the conections. Or you can hit big monster with big sword and laser beam.

    The bigger issue in Elden Ring is how incredibly difficult it is to track the quests of the people you meet. They are just standing around in the most obscure spots and since this game is super non-linear and has so_fucking_much side content it's almost impossible to finish some of the major questlines without a wiki. I was thinking about a similar concept like the guiding grace or the catacomb guide statues. Just give me a direction where i can find them again.

    Fun that you are saying that. Perhaps the most deaths/minute i've had in this game so far. I was thinking about how far these games have come. Artorias was a joke against this guy. So many variations, different delays, mixups you have to get down before you have a chance.

    Parried the fuck out of him at the end.

    If this is your first Soulsbornkiro, god have mercy.

    In retrospective, coming back with a little more dmg and hp would have saved a little sanity.

    I also use no skills, no summons, no spirits, just greatsword

    If I get hit I’m dead anyway, I love this

    SS is essentially made for skinny 16 year old dudes needing to put on some weight for their specific sport. It's super leg focused and makes you squat three times a week + deadlifts. So your legs are sore all the time, you barely do any upper back workout and you have to learn 3 seriously complex leg movements while progressing rapidly in weight (squat, clean, deadlift).

    Again, this is fine if you are lanky as fuck, 16 and want to get into track and field or football or basketball. If you are at any other point in your life, you should absolutely tweak the program and start from something more "gentle", that only has you squat once or twice and actually incorporates some real pulling work.

    Also some of Rippetoes queues for the lifts are rather questionable. You don't need to deal with chunky asshole chud and his program. There are plenty of alternatives around.
