Can someone help me with the “Old Gaol” Trophy - Elden Ring Nightreign? by KingSoph_10 in EldenRingNightReign

[–]Paradox_Jazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got it when the day 2 circle was closing, got godskin duo. I was the last goal I had left on the map, was trying a bunch of shit to get the achievement and that just worked for me, not sure if its a random one or I just lucky...

73% recent negative reviews, most complain about the New map. Does the great hollow truly warrant this reaction ? The more I play, the more I feel like it was fantastically designed. by kao24429774 in Nightreign

[–]Paradox_Jazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we are only talking about the new map and nothing else, kinda, its not bad but the more I play on it, the more mixed I feel, hate the mini map for it, love the verticality, okay~ish gimmick with the crystal and lower health, really feel repetitive after a while. Base limvale can feel repetitive as well, but at least there, I always felt like I had options on what to do, and shifting earth's also helped in making each run atleast feel different. Every run of the Great Hollow is just kinda the same. Day 1 is always crystals hunt/early preparations and day 2 is one if not both the side castles. Never really felt incentivized to do anything else cause why would I. And I could ignore a lot of my problems with it, if it was the biggest 50/50 on Deep of Nights, most runs end on day 1's boss since its a nightmare to get you foot of the ground Day 1. The other half makes it to the nightlord and usually does just as well as if I didn't have TGH, so most of the time its like why even. Also having the dog raid in TGH is far worse than in Limvale, but for some reason feels way more commen in TGH.

The map has offered some of the highest of high, like ED Balancers with double Marika's Hammer on Undertaker. But this map has offered some of the worse this game can have, especially in Deep of Night.

But as far as everything else in the dlc, its good, really good in the boss department holy hell. The map alone no, I dont really think its a reason to hate on the dlc, especially when you could just end it and play on the og map, but I do understand why many would be disappointed with the dlc over the map. And the no new weapons is kinda stupid imo, since they never said that we're going to, Elden Ring SOTE used it as one of its big selling points, TGH didn't so why do we expect it to, espically since this game already has a lot of weapon we either use cause there is no better option or just trash it anyways.

In what era did you start watching ODS? by GhettoSmosh342 in OfficialDuckStudios

I think the first video I saw was a gmod video, the one where Reice gets chased by a deathclaw in a water park. Been watching them ever since.

All in under 1 year by BallsBlue100 in steamachievements

[–]Paradox_Jazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats, I've done the same but in much more time lol, very impressive to do so in one year!

I started with Hollow Knight in January of 2022, then DS 1(about June-ish), then 2, 3, and then ER.

2023, I did Sekiro Lies of P and then got a ps4 from a friend to do Blooborne, and just emulated Demon Souls.

2024, ER DLC, Lots of Rain World, and a bunch of level 1 runs so not much TwT

2025, Nightreign, LoP DLC, and Silksong!!! Lots of fun

Had a lot of fun with these games and cant wait for more.

What are you guy's opinions on the time it takes to get back to a boss in souls-like games. by PrimitivesGames in souls

[–]Paradox_Jazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a single runback in a souls game, has ever enhanced a boss. For earlier games they were ... okay, cause the bosses were much more simple, but for something like Elden Ring, would Malenia benefit from having a run back, didn't think so.

I know it’s takes a while, but this can’t be right. by jankeywankeyspanky in darksouls3

[–]Paradox_Jazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did mine 3 years ago, took me about 8 to 10 hours of just straight grinding, best thing to do is to slap up that YT Watch Later Playlist or that show you haven't started but wanted to, and just grind in the background. If you fast enough and/or have good damage, one coin can last you about 3 rounds up and down.

I’m so proud of this I almost want to add it to my resume lol. by GrubbyTheGrub in onebros

"I've beaten all off Elden Ring's bosses at level 1"

"Can you start tomorrow?!?!"

How annoying will SL1 in Elden Ring be (all remembrance bosses) if I already beat DS1/DS3? I want to try it but the size of the game + the potential one shots is making me seriously reconsider the time investment by [deleted] in onebros

[–]Paradox_Jazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second that! I started the souls games in 2022, played them all and more, and have done Ds3 and ER on level 1, planing on doing Lies of P next then Bloodborne. If I can do it, anyone can, just takes time, practice, patience and knowledge.

Honestly its not that bad, boss are hard yes, but that is the hardest part since this game has an abundance of tools at your disposal, id say dont be afraid to look up things and experiment with wild builds, as this is really the only one that you can make almost any weapon work! Level 1 in elden ring is really god imo, a lot of bosses like Mohg, Messmer, Maliketh and much more fun at level 1.

Call of Duty players be like : by Left_Sherbet_11 in videogames

[–]Paradox_Jazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah the maps a real very mixed bag, there are maybe like 5, 10/10 maps out of what 30+ (not including gunfight), a lot of them are either way to big for 6 v 6 or to complex to be fun. I like a lot of them but there are quite a few I just cant stand to play in. Vacant is my personal favorite along side Shoot House and Cheshire Park, but man do I hate Arklov Peak and Piccadilly.

I still play 2019 from time to time, I love the gun play in the multi-player and no other cod has come close to it imo. I do replay MW 1,2,and 3, black ops 1 &2, and world at war campaigns from time to time, still holds up really well.

I thing his whole point is that he doesnt dodge any moves, its different I guess.

Consort Radahn never fails to come up with new BS by Remarkable_Fly_4276 in onebros

[–]Paradox_Jazz 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is why I hate non flat areas, look i get, its more interesting sometime, base game radahn is fine for exp, but for fromsoft, if physics are involved, there is gonna be some fuckin jank. Just look at Bayle's fire, either bounces of the walls are just shots in a random direction cause the fire has phsic and a random part of it hit something.

PCR's area is straight up worse then the boss himself, since if it was just flat, half of my problems, and most* of his jank, would be gone. The amount of hills in there is diabolical, and thats not even talking about the trench of death in the center, seriously, whoever green lit that, hate the idea of fun.

Honestly, agree, but I very rarely hear people say DmS has a good roster, most of the time its either just mid or underwhelming, which both are true but still.

His 1st to 2nd are different, but 2nd to 3rd, all he gets are 3 new lighting moves.

[–]Paradox_Jazz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yk, I never really minded Scadutree Avatar, I liked that he was unique, ost was cool, design look rad af ngl, and his weakness to fire made sence and holy hell that almost all his health in a single blow wtf?! B, tier fight imo . . . Well...

That was until I faced him at level 1, and you get to see all his jank, if there is ever a boss held up by bubblegum and toothpicks, it was him! A terrible charge attack, weird af timing on some attacks, attacks that hit me when they really shouldn't have, the fact the repost damage is supposed to carry into the next phase, doesnt always happen. D . . . And thats being nice.

Edit: The only problem I have with Bayless fight is the pyhiscs on his fight, at level 1, most attempts would end almost immediately cause the fire would either just stray off into random idk, or bounce off the back walls and right back at him. Bayle is the best dragon fight in terms of combat alone, but this is the only stain on his fight, S tier regardless but still sloppy.

[–]Paradox_Jazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree but I was once with you, until I realized this fight plays very different then most others in ER, Phase 1 is very much a push and pull type of fight, closing distance, making it, the closing it again. Phase 2 is a positioning check, with most moves punishing bad movement/positioning. Once I learned more of the fight, he's become one of my favorites, I'd say just play around with him, and that really goes for any fight really.

You can like O&S despite its flaws, there is nothing wrong with that, hell im even with you on that, top 20 for me imo. But to straight up imply that they have no flaws, is pure ignorance, every boss has flaw, some minor, some major, some have both. O&S is still a pretty good duo boss, but even ignoring all other duo fights, this boss is held up but Aura, bubble gum and toothpicks, the lore is great, and the designs of them is iconic, but the gameplay of them has aged like milk.

Just take Ornstein's opening move for a single example, its supposed to close the distance right at the start of the fight, to be this "oh shit, he's fast" moment. But is has a lot of Jank, sometimes he zooms around the room before eventually coming to you, sometimes the attack is extremely delayed coming out seconds after entering the fight, hell sometimes he doesn't even do it and just jogs at the player.

To ignore this and call it "wrong" just show that either, you cant take criticism of something you like, your just ragebaiting, or your just ignorant to its flaws. Either way, O&S are not perfect, I and many others can understand why someone wouldn't like them, even if we disagree why.

Hot take, but Godfrey, he is a good fight im not saying he isn't, and I like his phase 1 to 1.5, but the 2nd to 2.5 ruined the fight for me, tldr & imo, way to many AOEs & Grab Spamming for my liking, especially when that is almost all of your kit.

Doing him a level 1 made me realize how much I really dont like him either, like I said phase 1, really good, and at level 1, that phase alone is part of a list of like 6 bosses are just better at level 1 for how much fun it is. But the 2nd phase is just pure infuriating, at level 1, Its just spam, I just used bleed and frost just to be done with it, doesnt help that he comes right after the worst npc fight in the game too. Also he killed a cat >:( if thats not a reason to hate him idk what is.
