      Ok fine, I can X) Pretty crazy tho. When they announced the incentive goal we were like 400k away. Then ppl proceed to fulfill that and add another 500k on top after and during the run. Def the highlight of this GDQ imo

    • @AkuniLesare
      @AkuniLesare 5 месяцев назад +37

      I hated the DLC. It's style over substance, repeating and exaggerating issues that late game base ER had. For a FromSoft release, this felt very undercooked.
      Honestly dunno how the couch in this run can be so positive, ignoring all the mechanical issues like stutters or hitboxes not lining up, erratic enemy placement or, despite "too much dragons" being a prominent complain, absolutely spamming *one* dragon type.
      Feels like FS didn't really have a solid direction or time to polish for the DLC.

    • @anywhooohowareyou9540
      @anywhooohowareyou9540 5 месяцев назад +16

      I think the DLC benefits strongly from hindsight. The first play through of Elden Ring is truly a once in a lifetime experience. Secrets behind every corner. So many weapons and builds that are viable.
      The DLC definitely caters to somebody that knows what they are doing. I did find the world to be a little more empty than the base game though - once you beat Rhadan that’s it. There aren’t even really many places to go back and do some killing to try things out (at least not that I found).
      The map is incredible though. They used verticality extremely well.

  • @allgreatfictions
    @allgreatfictions 5 месяцев назад +6

    With blanxz being allowed to bring a save file that already has everything set up just as a showcase, I'd love to see more stuff like that shown off at GDQ in the future. Showcase the DLCs of Dark Souls 3, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring with an all-boss run, but let the runners bring any setup they want. One thing I really don't love in speedrunning is the lack of creativity by the time it gets shown off at this level. Everything the runner is doing is the same as what every other runner is doing because other creative people already came up with the fastest strats. Showing off creativity with weapons and attacks you like would be so much more enjoyable, and like they said at the start of this run: it's not scripted, it's just good, clean fights played at a high level.

      Proof of concept Showcase? And (not knowing anything beyond the run itself) showing off fight tactics for each of the bosses routed so far without major spoilers? Maybe something closer to all bosses/100% down the line would need it as opposed to any% but here it’s more for show I’d assume.
