I say it like dahtay and you can’t stop me

I dare you to say that to my cats face. They’ll kill you. Which doesn’t prove anything!

I do the opposite. I will run any game EXCEPT D&D. This gets people to try new games, and if they really wanna do D&D they can do it themselves, learn how to DM and run a group, and then I get to play. It’s been a pretty flawless strategy for me overall

I’ll take things that definitely didn’t happen for $1000

Quick someone make a shocked version of

That would just be a real shame if a lot of people did that huh

It would be an utter shame if someone included a virus inside a scanned PDF of the documentation and sent it to that email. It would be downright awful if a bunch of people did it. Just a real mess of a situation. I hope it doesn’t happen.

I mean have you seen a centipede? I wouldn’t want to hang out either

Killing the host is typically a pretty bad long term evolutionary strategy for something that requires a host though. Better to keep the host alive so it can proliferate you

Technically true since the daytime side will know first.

Many spoilers:

My overall thought is that it had some of the best boss fights I’ve ever experienced (Bayle, Messmer) and some of the worst (Radahn, that stupid moon lady). It felt like they relied heavily on phase change full room instagib attacks to make it hard and I thought that was lazy. Radahn especially with his final phase change, took me a while to learn how to spot him and where he was going to land. Felt way different than his OG fight. His second phase attacks are dodgeable of course but you won’t have any stamina left to attack him and by the time you get it back he’s back on his bullshit. Very very few openings means it was an EXTREMELY long and tiring fight without summoning. I did it but I won’t pretend like I had fun doing it.

Once I killed one furnace golem I just ignored the rest. Absolutely ridiculously boring to kill. Just horse jump and smack their legs for 5 minutes wow so engaging much gameplay.

I agree the level scaling was weird but I understand why they did it, they kinda backed themselves into a corner by capping scaling and having the base game balanced around hitting at least some of those caps. It would have been cool to just up the scaling but that probably makes the end of the base game too easy. Which is also a thing I wish they would get away from, as someone who has thousands of hours across the souls games, who cares if it’s too easy.

The world itself was beautiful but the pacing was so weird. You have entire areas that were an absolute joy to run around PACKED TO THE BRIM with things to do and then you have entire areas with nearly nothing (the finger ruins were egregiously empty). Why make this interesting beautiful areas and then put literally nothing inside them.

It felt to me like they had some ideas and they wanted to try them out. Some of those ideas were super cool…there are some seriously cool bosses, enemies, weapons, spells, etc. But some of those ideas had me scratching my head. Also spirit ashes still blow chunkies even if you use mimic tear and even if they’re maxed out. For something that’s supposed to act as a crutch they needed to fix their late game issues and they just didn’t. All of them die hard on all of the instakill phase change attacks which I find very funny.

I hope this DLC was more of a play test for Elden Ring 2…a way for them to try some new stuff and see what folks like and what folks don’t. Overall I enjoyed it but I’m a die hard fan of the series. I don’t think it’s for everyone who liked Elden Ring.

Oh yes, regular folks in the Imperium are absolutely forbidden from knowing anything about or even talking about chaos at all. The guard may even be sent to fight chaos directly without being told what they’re fighting or why, just that they are fighting heretics. And if they ask for more information they will be made an example of so nobody else thinks it’s a good idea.

The Imperium is not a nice place to be, mostly
