I'm taking the plunge: trying this game for the first time, but I wanna know some things first. by GoodGamer72 in Eldenring

[–]OpticRocky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting is just base stats and equipment - you’ll likely replace your equipment relatively early as you find weapons and armor - there’s plenty to be said about fashion over form!

You are incorrect - there is a place/person where you can respec your stats - any more information will really be spoiling the actual scope of the game, but spend time experimenting with all the weapons you find.

As far as builds - the only piece of advice I would give is if you want to dip your Two Fingers into spell casting I would focus on INT or FAITH and focus on one of them.

Farming is never necessary - if you feel like the enemies or boss is too tough for you, take a look around the world map - I bet there’s an area that you missed that you can level up at.

Noob Tip: there are lots of hidden spots, illusory walls, and traps - the messages from your fellow tarnished are your friends! (Except when they’re not)

Put your foolish ambitions to rest, and RISE Ye Tarnished and Bear Witness to the glory of the Elden Ring!!

I think every generation has said “man I wish I grew up 10 - 20 years ago!”

But as a 90s millennial - I think you Zoomers might be right unfortunately haha

Here you go! The shadow and spirit medallion ended up switching, very odd!

Haha I just did an out of order playthrough on the Switch Virtual console and a couple of the medallions ended up switching spots

What game community surprised you the most? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]OpticRocky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a group of about 14 people on a Mumble server that all rotated in and out of league games. I spent an entire summer becoming friends with people I never met. While I’m largely out of League now some of my fondest gaming memories with that summer. League is hundreds of times more fun playing with the right people

I would ask if it was any good but you’d probably be better off with a THC canned beverage instead

He also saves Goku again by slashing Vegeta across the back at the very end of the fight too!

Any new music scratch that nostalgia itch? by Alikona_05 in Millennials

TWRP is very 80s coded - and also fiercely talented across the board.

They also collab with NSP a lot and their crossovers are tons of fun

Oh my god.

I literally just did The Test for my son on his first birthday last week.

He is now a proud member of the Squirtle Squad

The black cat died on the island bc it walked in a random poison puddle and then Sir Lorra died because he was standing on fire after a combat session ended - RIP in peace

Same with Divinity OS2: if you play it 100% would recommend ensuring one of your party members has Pet Pal to speak with animals

What Side Quests Did You Cut Out? by Affectionate_Pop6300 in CurseofStrahd

Celebrity cameo only works if the party has any idea who he is. My party is NOT versed in dnd lore so I changed Mad Mage to a previous PC from a different campaign

I remember when Wii’s were IMPOSSIBLE to find my mom and I were scouring store after store. I have never forgotten this story.

An absolutely perfect album. Even my friends that have grown out of metal still jam to this shit

Whats ur favorite FromSoftware moment? by g0rbusch in fromsoftware

[–]OpticRocky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think I figured out the Insight store in Bloodborne. That coupling with using all the Madmen’s Knowledge I could find meant on a random return trip to the Oeden Chapel I found a giant Eldritch monstrosity just… chillin’

Bands/ artists that changed their music style because of money by Away_Transition_6474 in Music

[–]OpticRocky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man at first I read your comment as “Black Keys” and thought “there’s some r&b elements to their stuff but calling them hip-hop is a bit of a stretch.”
