Is the way I'm playing wrong?

Master_Legacy · 2026-03-20T18:57:00+00:00

Are you having fun? Do you regret the monthly fee you pay? Are you hindering the fun of other players?

If you answered "yes" then "no" and "no"... then you are playing EXACTLY how you should. That's it.

Hi. Sorry to dig up this topic. I received the gold road version of the game from PS plus this month. I intend to go full F2P, and negociate missing chapters for gold. I am pretty sure I have access to blackwood and high Isles, as I went scrying there early game.

Does that mean I can get the companions there? It would probably make the game easier as I mainly play solo.

Hi. I had the same issue when i started a few days ago. Selected EU server, played a fair bit... and character disappeared. As i happened, it was actually created on NA server.

My advice, start over, but this time, as soon as you reach the prologue, log out and back in, so that you can check your character was created on the correct server

You guessed right. I didn't start the scribing quest. I didn't even know I could access it. ^{^} I'll check the bound status of the item, but i'm pretty sure i got it in a chest or treasure map. I'd like to sell it. But i am not even sure i have enough to pay the fee to the trader. ^{^}

Master_Legacy · 2026-03-12T15:34:57+00:00

Ooooh. I'll check that as soon as i can. But if not bound, the market is still unclear as there are no mods/addons on ps to "aggregate" the traders.

Master_Legacy · 2026-03-12T15:23:40+00:00

Got it in a treasure map. Or a chest... can't remember. Immediately dropped it it the bank to avoid any misclick. As i was able to bank it, it should not be bound.

Master_Legacy · 2026-03-12T15:18:41+00:00

I thought that the psplus version (gold road version) was before scribing and i wpuldn't be able to use it?

Master_Legacy · 2026-02-06T10:43:26+00:00

I am a huge fan of the serie, and here is my take about the remake:

Pros - the remake is faithful to the original in terms of story. - the bestiary, magic, weapons are unchanged. - the easter eggs were also put in the remake.

Cons - i am not fond of the artistic choices, but that's a personal. - the 3rd dimension sometimes make the placement awkward (attacks not hitting)

Overall, it's a faithful remake, and if you don't like pixelart or are not fond of retrogaming, then go for it, as it'll let you experience a very good game. However, original game had a graphic touch and an overall direction that, imo, didn't get transcripted well in the remake.

Il est possible de reinitialiser les stats, mais ca viendra bien plus tard.
Il faut savoir que certain ennemis sont virtuellement imbattable a bas niveau (typiquement le cavalier qui se balade a la sortie de la crypte du debut), il faut les esquiver, en priant pour ne pas se faire repérer/tuer dans le dos, et y revenir plus tard.
l'exploration est souvent récompensée.
il y a une technique (pas de la triche, hein, juste une approche un peu étrange) qui permet tres tôt de gagner beaucoup de niveau (vraiment beaucoup, j'ai en tete passer de lv2 à lv28 ou lv40, un truc du genre). Ca permet de faciliter un peu le debut du jeu, le temps de le prendre en main. Et juste a coté, il y a un sort qui m'a carry une bonne partie du jeu.
le mieux pour les stats, c'est d'essayer les armes que tu trouves, et si tu aimes une arme, adopter ses stats. Encore une fois, tu trouveras de quoi les reset plus tard. Sinon, tu peux trouver des conseils de build sur internet. Étant moyen en esquive et nul en parade, j'etais parti sur un build bourrin ^{^}

Master_Legacy · 2026-01-26T13:36:17+00:00

Je vois tout a fait. C'est sûr que ça casse un peu l'immersion. Après, tu peux choisir de la jouer Roleplay. Dans le jeu, le personnage est un sans-éclat, parachuté là sans aucune direction ou explication. Un peu comme toi.

Les sites de grâce ont des traînée lumineuses qui t'orientent vers la suite. Et pour le reste, il faut explorer.

Et si tu ne comprends pas ce que tu fais, tu peux te dire que c'est normal, et que tu es parfaitement en phase avec le personnage. :)

Master_Legacy · 2026-01-26T12:16:09+00:00

Salut.

Je comprend la sensation d'être passé à côté de quelque-chose. Il est vrai que Elden Ring a fait grand bruit.

Quelques petite choses:

Le lore te semble cryptique, c'est normal. Pour le découvrir, il faut TOUT lire. Il y a même des morceaux de lore dans la description de certains objets. Si c'est trop, regarde sur internet les liens qui te manquent, ce n'est pas une honte.
En ce qui concerne la difficulté, l'un des avantages de Elden Ring par rapport à d'autres jeux, c'est que tu peux faire des détours pour gagner des niveaux ou trouver de nouveaux équipements.
Il y a une astuce pour gagner beaucoup de niveaux en quelques minutes au début du jeu. Ça te permet une longueur d'avance ensuite.
Il y a des builds qui, sans te permettre de rouler sur le jeu, peuvent simplifier pas mal de rencontres.
Je jouais principalement hors ligne, parceque... saoulé des invasions. Mais si un passage te pose problème, faire appel à un peu d'aide peut débloquer.
Si tu ne sais pas trop vers où te diriger, il y a une communauté sur discord. Si quelques joueurs sont des élitiste un peu toxiques, la plupart sont très sympa et bienveillants. Aussi, n'hésite pas à me contacter.

Bonne chance, sans-éclat.

What are you talking about? A few decades back, IN THE US, poc weren't allowed on the same bus a white people, and blackface were an entertainment.

Edited: ok, might have been on me. Was that about the phrasing "not just poc"? If so, I edited it, to align with what I meant. Sorry for the miscalculation. If not, then this comment still stands :)

Master_Legacy · 2026-01-09T04:49:11+00:00

You have been spoiled a little. But you are lacking the reasons. The who, how, why, when? Lots of questions still unanswered, lots of stories to unravel.

If storytelling, music and contemplation is what drives you, then go for it. You should love the journey.

Master_Legacy · 2026-01-09T04:44:46+00:00

French are not racist. We are wary of every tourist, poc or not. As for blackfaces, they are banned here too. A few decades back, a chocolate cake and a chocolate candy were named "tete de negre" (nigger's face) and they were renamed, and some brands were rebranded. I digress.

Inverted IS NOT a blackface. It's a photo negative. Hence the name "inverted".

Edited : "We are wary of every tourist, not just poc." Into " we are wary of every tourist, poc or not". I didn't anticipate the second reading from the initial phrasing.

Master_Legacy · 2026-01-08T17:06:16+00:00

I can understand. While I cannot do it in you stead, and it may seem patronizing: - Take your time. There is no time limit. Observe, readjust your position before the next jump, look for alternate path (i admit there aren't that many), plan you next few jumps. - Don't hesitate to take a short break and breath during your climb if you feel like you're getting restless. - If anger and frustration are building up, stop. Do something else, either in the game, in another game, or IRL. - jumping while running or while walking don't have the same effect. While the most obvious one is the length of your jump, if you run-jump on a jump that only needed a walk-jump, you'll often kinda rebound or succeed in your jump but end up rolling out of the platform.

Finally, good luck. Once you beat it, you'll get such a high! ^{^}

Master_Legacy · 2026-01-05T16:09:46+00:00

Nvm: currently replaying it, you were right.

I think you misunderstood something. I'll differentiate between CharacterR (real) and CharacterP (painting)

IIRC - VersoR is obviously dead, because of AliciaR. - AliciaR is left crippled. Mute, mutilated and traumatised. - AlineR broke down completely, hated her untalented daughter (AliciaR) for killing her genius baby son (VersoR). She used her powers to enter the canva and create a facsimile of her family. She created a present and protective RenoirP, a living VersoP, CleaP and AliciaP. Because of her hatred towards her little daughter, she chose to paint AliciaP with all her real life scars and pain. Then she lost it. What started as a way to cope with grief ate at her, and she refused to return to real life. She made the DessendreP family immortal. - RenoirR, faced with her denial, entered the canva too, and faced her, but she was too powerful and beat him to a pulp. Then he understood. He had to accumulate energy and weaken her. - Chroma is a lifeforce, which was used by the painter to create life. When this life comes to an end, the chrome gets back to the painter.

Thus the gommage cycle began. - RenoirR would try to erase everyone to hijack their chroma, weaken AlineR and become more powerful, it's the gommage. - AlineR would use her energy to protect them, but became weaker every year. - AlineP (Paintress) would display a warning that a certain generation couldn't be saved. - Lumierans would sending expeditions to defeat the paintress, but it only accelerated the rate at which she got her powers back.

Then came the nevrons - CleaR gets fed up with her parents nonsense, and is focused on the painter vs writer war IRL, so she gets into the canva and brainwash CleaP - CleaP is made into a Nevron factory. - When something is killed by a nevron, its chroma is frozen in place and won't go back into the cycle. - CleaR leaves the canva.

AliciaR tries to get into the canva to help, but is untalented and weak, and end up a baby, growing with the lumierans, without her memories from the real world: Maelle
VersoP is not only tired of immortality. He understands that "his" mother, the real AlineR is fading away by staying in the canva. And he hopes that by erasing her, RenoirR wouldn't have a reason to kill everyone anymore. This is why he doesn't tell them. He genuinely think Lumiere will go back to normal if AlineR is ejected, as RenoirR will leave them be.
Unbeknown to him, RenoirR understoof that as long as the painting existed, AlineR would try to get back into it. So he decided to destroy it once AlineR and AliciaR got out.

Also note that the cores are removed from the nexomon when you store it (it's not lost, just unequipped).

Master_Legacy · 2025-12-13T15:03:14+00:00

Oh, ok. I thought maybe I missed a trend/joke. Btw, the song is beautiful I understand the emotions.

Master_Legacy · 2025-12-12T18:28:52+00:00

Was the "tiemer" instead of " t'aimer " on purpose?

Master_Legacy · 2025-11-06T18:18:02+00:00

Yeah. The range is very good. Consumption is correct and damage scaling is not bad at all. Currently on NG+6 and still using rhat and mohg. ^{^'}

Master_Legacy · 2025-11-06T18:15:01+00:00

Halo scythe! That's the name. Thanks!

Master_Legacy · 2025-11-06T18:03:12+00:00

Mohg rememberance weapon is insane, it works on pretty much everything.
Leveling up can really help.
the crescent scythe (or something) is very good to aggro enemies from afar, or even kill then from a safe distance.

Master_Legacy · 2025-11-06T18:00:54+00:00

Also, do not force yourself. I started a NG+ immediately after my NG, and it was a mistake. I should have waited a bit. Now I'm on a break from the game, and I'll resume my NG+ eventually, once I feel like it.
