  • What Elden Ring Has Taught Me So Far... this game is amazing and it honestly has been a great intro to this genre. I think this game is full of in game and real life lessons, just depends how you look at it.

    I am pretty much the same, Elden ring is the first souls I ever played and I bought the main game when dlc released. By now I have finished everything, doing a level 1 run and been refreshing. I bought a bunch of souls games, I recommend Sekiro, I'm almost done with it.

    In the same exact boat as you! Have never been drawn or seen the appeal of single player games. But this is the one game that has ever interested me. Finally started playing a few weeks ago…and now it’s my life 😂

    You should play them in order and you can truly appreciate everything about the souls series. Demon souls, darks souls, dark souls 2, dark souls 3, sekiro, and then finally elden ring. It just gets better. Now you'll be like, well the others arent as fun :( after playing elden ring

    Personally after finishing elden ring I have to say: Not my game. I can easily enjoy a game but the main thing that really made me not want to like elden ring was the exact progression that you said was so good. The rune costs very VERY quickly go into absurd levels and at any stage of the game its only this NEED to either abuse farms or not level because you cant just run around and casually grt the runes for a levelup. On later stages the levelups also become much much less rewarding. Up to I think Vigor40 you get like 40hp or so, after that up to 60 it is only 20, and after that its increments of like 7 or something. Other stats feel almost useless because it judt translates into like 10damage or something which in comparison to the bosses absurd HP bard is far from enough to feel rewarding. Then we have the difficulty. I dont MIND the difficulty, I like a difficult game, I just hate how its achieved. Condtantly getting staggered and unable to do anything by anything all the time, bosses goving you no attack windows, Input reading, outright unengaging movesets and delayed attacks all just drag the fight into lengths that feel annoying. If you actually want a proper fight that feels fun you will barely ever find it. Bosses move, attack and react faster than most of your animations are. If you want a fun fight with an interesting dynamic the only bosses Id have to recommend are Malenia and consort radahn. Unironically the only bosses that actually behave in a way that makes it fun and challenging to fight them at the same time. Everyone else is just: dodge their five million AOE attacks, hit ince and repeat.
    To rub it in, my friend said: If you dont like Elden ring you will hate Darksouls 3. And out of sheer spute I played it. And goddamn THAT is how elden ring should have gone. Bosses actually FEEL interactive amd I hardly think people would say ds3 is easy. Why is it? Because you arent capped by levels or progress. Yes ofc you can level your stuff and upgrade your weapon. But it doesnt feel as mandatory as ER, heck I started as knight, grabbed the lucerne (Helbard) and just rolled with it. Was it hard? Sure but I cant say I didnt enjoy it. Thats how its supposed to go. Maybe you will reach that point too, maybe you wont. Elden ring feels enticing early on but its quickly burning out and becomes unenjoyable the more you think about it. At least for me. ER feels difficult for the sake of being difficult unlike DS3 which is made to feel fun while being difficult. ER lost that fun-component
    Also about people saying much content is in ER: Only in the openworld. The dungeons (not something like leyndell or volcano manor those are openworld dungeons) but catacombs and caves are incredibly boring. They often feel like assetflips left and right, enemies have little variety and feel like they just exist to prevent you from just getting everything quickly. You jsut go therr once, get all the items and then never visit again because its so forgettable.

      this is a refreshing take... I take your word on ds3 being a better combat experience as I have no reference given i have not yet played it. I do agree that the rune gathering process and leveling up in ER is tedious and does feel required in order to simply have fun... I do wish they made runes a little easier to gather in large quantities. As for the boss fights, I don't find them unengaging but some of them definitely can get frustrating after just getting spammed with random and repetitive move sets. Appreciate the comment!

    You do kind of defeat the main attraction point of fromsoft games (them being hard) by having 60 vigor in castle morne lol. Don't farm, just explore every area you can find and you'll have more levels than you need for the areas that you'll encounter. You never have to learn a boss' moveset when you can just bruteforce them by being ridiculously overlevelled.

      @@Aidxxn that one is very restrictive though in story bits. The world is huge and open, but when playing a mission you have to do everything exactly as they scripted which really turns me off Rockstar games
