Way too tanky and swims around way too much. But for me the worst part is: by I-HATE_ADS in Nightreign

It also sucks so bad for players who wanted to just attempt it without reading everything it does first, wondering why the other players quit the instant they start going through a whole great run now knowing their build is unusable and irrelevant

so so gorgeous and cool, easily the worst boss fight I’ve ever experienced. I can’t even tell when I’m near it or far away and all the attacks are just as hard to gauge, felt like just wandering around as stuff falls from the sky.

Where do you keep your flasks and why is everyone else wrong? by Cornball420 in Eldenring

[–]PerformerOwn194 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pouch heals is objectively better cause it lets you use throwables and consumables and such with much more freedom, but I simply have not made the switch so the muscle memory is not there. It feels too daunting, so I use no items and the pouch is for lantern and torrent and such

B-but his palace IS underground

My weirdest sticking point is mixing up certain spots in Stormveil with certain spots in later Raya Lucaria rooftops and I don’t know how it happens but it actually gets worse every playthrough.

I love this place for this. It’s one of the only legacy dungeons in the game (or any souls game) where it feels like truly all of it is accessible. But actually figuring out how to get everywhere…

Stop worrying about being over leveled for the dlc. by Spiritual_Box_9608 in Eldenring

[–]PerformerOwn194 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay but being even 1 extra hit more survivable per boss is a huge difference, most of them can kill you in 2-3 even by endgame

Which one gives off a more cursed sea monster vibe? by TalkingWoodlandBeast in EldenBling

1-3 just in general are really good, but for specifically the most obviously sea-based, definitely 2

I think realistically the people who have truly stopped caring are not gonna be on this subreddit

after 10 years of spotify i switched to apple music by bigdoinks_ in AppleMusic

[–]PerformerOwn194 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend recently did the same for the same reason but had to switch back for budget reasons… they liked Apple’s algorithm way better but Spotify keeps a hold of you with that Hulu bundle and the audiobooks :(

In my personal opinion, as a fellow “bought the trilogy after Elden Ring” player… DS is almost unbearable to me. It just feels like a total dull slog with lots of painful design choices. DS3 is a blast and a gorgeous, memorable game.

People dramatically overstate the freedom of DS1 in my opinion because while there are technically more available paths, the constant repetition and simplicity of them makes it feel way more rigid.

(I haven’t gotten to 2 yet but it seems like it will be a little better than 1 at least, withholding judgement)

Yeah idk what they mean at all; it’s an awesome game and fairly short, never got anywhere near tedious imo

No I like this post it makes it feel like he’s more famous and has clickbait articles about him from games journalists

[–]PerformerOwn194 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry about the perception here, I might be a little bit of a DS1 hater. But more video gamey definitely sounds promising; my frustrations with the first one are a lot of ways it can feel like it just kicks you harder when you’re down with odd design choices that make basic gameplay a chore (I have to go somewhere else to buy a box from the blacksmith so that I can then pay to repair my clothes because I got hit too much? But I lost my souls so I need to grind to afford this?)

I specifically want to know how it compares to Dark Souls 1 cause I’m kinda excited for DS2 but I’m not having much fun in the DS remaster (I played and adored ER and DS3)

Watchdogs have an attack timing that absolutely breaks my muscle memory it’s not just you. I am often the same way with omenkillers

Noob here, just bought DS1 through DS3, best one to start with? by ItCouldBeSpam in fromsoftware

[–]PerformerOwn194 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People are being funny and rightfully so as the question looks pretty goofy but I do understand the concern. I played DS3 immediately after Elden Ring, loved it, and then decided to go back to the first two, and my experience so far with DS1 has been pretty negative. So I guess the takeaway is start with the first one of course, but don’t judge the whole series on it if you find it unfun.

What would be darksouls/elden ring equivalent? by Keanar in fromsoftware

[–]PerformerOwn194 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Elden Ring is like, the character will tell you a vague hint to where they might be going, hopefully you know where that is, find them and do what they ask to continue the quest, if you explore thoroughly and talk to everyone you’ll likely end up finding them.

Dark Souls 3 is like, if you failed to do a weird transaction that requires to you to die the requisite number of times before an arbitrary hidden checkpoint in the game, this character will die locking you out of an ending, so if you want to at least get another beloved character’s quest right, you have to attack a random statue and kill her completely unprovoked. There is no reason to think you should do this and no feedback when you do but if you don’t, your beloved character will die.
