Elden Ring

New patch is out?

Welp, bleed nerfed too.

I realized something about Elden Ring. Some of the important NPCs are named using George R R Martin's initials.

G - Godfrey, Godwyn, Godefroy, etc.
R - Rennala, Ranni, Radagon, Rykard, Radahn, etc.
M - Marika, Malenia, Millicent, etc.

I really like ymfah's challenge runs.

Was anyone able to replay this game again? I tried a lot but I feel like once you have completed this game once it's impossible to get back

You can try new builds or try to set challenges for yourself, like playing without summons or with a particular build.

Well, I don't want to aritfically keep playing when there are many others still in the backlog lol. I am more interested in seeing what other's experience was. Feel like older Fromsoft games were more fun to go back to

I tried playing the game again and again but i feel its not cup of my tea nor that any other fromsoft games are.

I played a bit today, made some progress on my NG+ character. Finished the Dung Eater's quest. I mostly prefer boss rushing these days.

Perhaps you should take a break until the DLC drops.

Perhaps you should stop then

I wish I could delete my memory of this game to play it again, it is that good.

I think this about all the previous games, including this one.

Though trying different builds or setting challenges for yourself is an alternative. I play a caster or ranged build for my subsequent playthroughs to change things up. Or I try to parry all parriable bosses.

I think this is especially true for Elden Ring in particular. The main value of Elden Ring seems to be the exploration. You can't explore something after you have already seen it... Waiting for the dlc to drop, this time I'll try to take it slower

Older souls games are the same, except Elden Ring's map is much wider. You'll get the same feeling then.

But older souls games still have replay value due to different builds. Same with Elden Ring.

 

[Desmond]

Let me know if anyone wants to coop in the new DLC.

The journey so far...
