Despite its many flaws (overtuned bosses, reused bosses, bad dungeons, and a lackluster third act, shitty enemies),there’s literally not a single other game that gave me the same sense of grand adventure as ER. At every turn, there’s something massive, mad, and majestic hidden just for you. It’s simply fantastic and deserves all the praise it got.Because at the end of the day, liking something isn’t about specific numbers or design documentst’s about how that game makes you feel, and Elden Ring feels out of this world (on the first playthrough).
>>731138778Thanks grok
>>731138872Np :P you want me to put her in a bikini
Those first few weeks were magicalEven the normie co-workers who only play cod or fifa a couple hours a week picked up elden ring. I shit you not we had some hood nigga literally named jamal talking about how speccing for bloodhound blade with pyromancy as a back up was clearing bosses too easy but he was having trouble with radahn
>>731138953Yes
>>731138954It's far from perfect or best in every aspect but there is magic in this game A game a lot guys wished for as teenagers
>>731138778You forgot the only real horror of Elden Ring and its not what you listed. Its the Ai overworld. With such a huge ugly and barren Ai generated overworld it just can't give me a good sense of adventure. I still really like the game, but its hardly memorable.

>>731139091>With such a huge ugly and barren Ai generated overworldI find it pretty and majestic but it's a matter of taste ig
>>731139541Its not a matter of taste, its bad and if someone told me that it was entirely made using Ai I'd believe it. Its a really ugly open world, if you like it then you are severely lacking in some areas.
>>731138954I'm not into souls games, I never even finished elden ring but exploring it on launch day and getting teleported to caelid was an amazing experience. I wish I could into character action but it's just not for me. Still think it's probably the best game world ever made
>>731138778Fromsoft does excellent dark fantasy worlds I just wish their games were less action more rpg.

>>731139736the only thing the souls artist do is depict sorta realistic ruins of (mainly) european architecture so it does look "majestic" to the untrained eye. Like some "museum shit", like they bothered spending a few hours on wikipedia during the dev process. Add some generic orchestral anime music and it becomes really epic to the normalphlegms. Make the bosses absurdly big, copy their design from Berserk and give them weird lolrandom animation delays and it gives it that epic Berserk anime vibe that troons seem to enjoy. What a dogshit series. DaS1 was good though. It didn't insist upon itself. Japs make good stuff when it's self aware and they admit that they're just sucking off European white male penis in the most subservient manner.>inb4 trannies seething and going "git gud"
>>731140263I have somewhat of a difficult time understanding how anyone can like the Elden Ring overworld, its really quite bad. Not that I needed Nightreign to show me that, but that game should show easily show people that both Elden Ring game's overworlds are only suited for just running around like a prick in a multiplayer setting. They are offensively bad, but at least Nightreign isn't a proper single player game that should have a truly good open world.
>>731138954Please tell me you told him try finger but hole
>>731138778>>>/lgbt/
>>731140704It looks good on a superficial level. It feels epic and normalfags (both female and male despite male NPCs LARPing as logical machines/philosophers) function purely on vibes. If they're vibbin' they like your product and recommend it to other normgroids who then buy it, and so it goes viral and you get rich. Sometimes these vibes surround a core of actual goodness, but not in the case of soulslop.
>>731140908>toilet seat collarBravo.
>>731140064They should GitHub at making engaging bosses
>>731138778They need to make mage gameplay better. They’re so close.
i finished ER with a simple shield and a fully upgraded weight 3 sword. i only upgraded vitality, stamina, strength and dexterity.i never gave a fuck about anything remotely magical. i don't even know how to summon.Story was ass.world design was at least decent. i hated this game as much as i hated DaS2.

Elden Ring has some of the nicest looking visuals and art direction ever. It gives you a sense of scale no game has given before, evokes the same kind of wonder people felt when first playing Shadow of the Colossus, but of course in an even more impressive way. The atmosphere and the creativity on display is jaw dropping sometimes. Everything is so stylish, down to the armor sets and random roaming enemies. The world is derivative, yes, but not in a "been-there-done-that" way. More like seeing time-tested ideas distilled to peak appeal. In some aspects it's truly a masterpiece and one of gaming's milestones.But at the same time it's such a fucking awful game. The minute to minute gameplay is pure ass, all the non-legacy areas feel phoned in, the copy pasting is insulting, and the Zanzibart factor with the randomly teleporting NPCs is so fucking retarded.So for the zoomers>thinking about Elden Ring: happy emoji>actually playing Elden Ring: cringe emoji skull emoji
>>731141594I give ER props for increasing the quality of an adventure game (tired of using open world these days), but the copy paste design with the DmC enemy AI makes the game annoying.
>>731139736when was the last time you went to a blacksmith for anything? or let me guess it's chink shit IKEA for you, right? don't talk about taste, peasant.
>>731141594Fromsoft art direction has always been industry leading, and I include enemy visual design and animations in this too.
>>731141594>sense of scale no game has given before
>>731140118Why the fuck are troons so obsessed with fuckijg 4chan. Every board just discord troons making the worst threads imaginable. Why? Do they really have nothing in their lives? They see 4chan opinion manipulation as the most important thing ever? Nobody even luses this site anymore it’s all paid shills and bots. Whatever if they want to waste their life trying to change the opinion of gurgesh, zhang zhangwei, schlomo and agent johnson so be it. Every white poster has already formed their own opinion on shit and anything to the contrary is immediately chalked up to Jews/indians/trannies/Chinese and is ignored and disregarded with prejudice.
To me open world games stop having that wonder once you figure out how systemic they are. Every ER area has a dungeon pointed by emaciated skeleton statues and all of them are grey, filled with gargoyles and have a boss at the end.
>>731141594>le mysterious ancient giant world trees meme again>le european ruins meme again>le craggy grey landscape again>le piss n shit clouds and anti-soul gas again>le dualism (glowy divine thing vs ruined world) again>le anime references (but mainly Berserk because we're lazy) againReally nigger? Why are japs so bug tier formulaic? Has their history of feudalism and sucking off daimyos, emperors, europeans and americans buck break them into a multi-generational ahegao?
>>731144050i think they have some of the worst enemy design I've ever seen. dark souls 3 especially. too many enemies just have weird ugly growths or proportions, they just look bad.
>>731144369>Why the fuck are troons so obsessed with fuckijg 4chan4chan is the last bastion of free speech that's also accessible to most people since we don't need an account. Whether they like it or not, they like that aspect about it, too, and yet will complain about anything on here, but will never be able to shut us down.
