I think I might pass on this one. I’m still feeling a little bloated from gorging on stew 2 years ago
i have been stalling on a replay for like a year now waiting for this lol, i purposefully left a lot of stuff out of my first playthrough so i would have reasons to revisit the game/not get sick of it from playing for 200+ hours (I STILL SQUEEZED LIKE 120 OUT OF IT SOMEHOW LOL it was ~40 hours before i even stopped fucking around and started to seriously go after lords besides Godrick)
Also i need to patch the shit out of it, ive also been stalling cuz i didnt wanna nerf Hoarfrost Stomp/Bloodhound Fang (but also cuz i didnt want to start a Greatsword playthrough without that buff… it’s a wonder i play through any games at all with my mentality)
I started up a new character last night. Going more magic-heavy than I usually do with From’s games. Not sure if I’m going to see this one through to the end. I’m progressing pretty quickly, surprisingly. Hope I’m at a place where I can start doing the new stuff before long by Friday (doubtful)
I’m playing the expansion* now. what’s with all the bubble guys and perfumers
[*]: picking up my old game that I stopped playing at just before entering Leyndell
I can almost tell from the inconsistent reviews who’s burned out on souls and who isn’t because these are so uniformly high quality, it’s almost impossible to produce a real critique
the bubble guys are fantasy christians who got reborn after chilling in cocoons for a couple of decades in fantasy jesus’s backup erdtree. they’re there to announce the immanent glorious return of fantasy jesus, which is definitely going to happen any century now, fantasy jesus definitely hasn’t been physically appropriated by a blood cult and this is not a commentary on real-world history
the perfumers are fantasy chemists who developed their science based on the wide variety of fantasy hydrocarbons produced by the erdtree, before it burned down and was replaced by a spectral image of itself. the minor erdtrees still produce tears though, they’re what you make your wondrous physick out of
I remember getting clipped by that banished knight in the doorway, and the stone imps as gargoyles at the start of the area. Damn.
I’d be wary of 1.0 lore stuff though. The unpatched game is missing a lot of items and enemy types, there’s lots of empty chests, etc. I think they just couldn’t fit it all in without a patch.
don’t try me
Reminder that the SB Elden Ring group password is GOD.HAND and you should use it and leave lots of notes around the world so I have something to read when I can eventually afford this thing
torrent in elden beast
wtf, is this temporary?
i wonder if this means mohgwyn palace will be grouped with the dlc areas for summoning pools
impressions: the shader stuttering is out of control but I remembered the banjo kazooie ass horse buttons
i haven’t seen an area this brown in decades
I loaded my old character and immediately got owned by a salamander warrior and one of those horrible mobile iron maiden robot fuckers. Thanks for leaving off there, past me.
my R1 button got disabled at one point and the game has been loading alternately different lighting models on each respawn lol
I tried to reload into the game to fix the performance and it told me it had detected suspicious behavior
incredible work from the best at frame timing in the business
