>half the merchants in elden ring are tucked away in intentionally remote, annoying to reach places>there is no downside to just killing them all as they won't all turn hostile at once>no incentive or reward for keeping them all alive either>your gameplay experience is simply made worse by not taking their bell bearings and turning the twin maiden husks into an easily accessible supermarketgenuinely what did Miyazaki mean by this? and don't you dare giving me the shopping cart routine
>>734460431He wants you to kill the jews.
>>734460431It's a shame they cut Santa's questline.
>>734460431>do something evil for the smallest conveniencethe perfect morale choice
>>734460431I enjoy their music.
>>734460431>>734461612This is a running theme in the souls games, a lot of NPC quest lines can be skipped by just killing them, and in a lot of cases you'll still get their weapons and armor. It's one of the few actual role-playing elements these games have.
>>734460431>>734461612you should kill them all anywaythey summoned the frenzied flame so they could end the world, theyll do it again if given the opportunity. keeping them alive is the objectively evil choice.
>>734461981If they wanted to end the world that badly then keeping them alive and immortal forever is a fitting punishment
>>734460431Why is he dressed like Santa Claus anyway. Is he trying to be jolly
>>734463039Japan doesn't understand westoid brain poisoning well enough to acknowledge those colors in that sequence as being "Santa's" colors
>>734463339hmmm you sound pretty unwell
>>734463419>hmmmAnd you come across like a fragile queer, sorry the right answer was too much for you
>>734463552I had to think how to respond to mental illness
>>734463339Nigger the Japs associate KFC with Christmas because their branding is red and whiteYou're a huge dick-sucking retard
>>734463584Did you practice in the mirror first?>>734463609>be american>be obsessed with fast food>project this on everyone elseHysterical, so he's the KFC man?
>>734463646>be dick-sucking retard who knows nothing about Japan>UUUHMMMM ACKSHUALLY I'M AN EXPERT ON JAPAN [incoherent screeching about the West]you're a dick-sucking retard, and your skin is brown, the color of shit.
>>734463781>be a brain rotten westoid weeb>read some retard shit about fast food chicken, Christmas, and Japan on 4chan>accept it as factBased retard
>>734460431I like the one in Mohg's tunnel who fights back
>>734463893>My wholesome Japanerino would never know who Santa Claus is because they are untouched by the ebil West>But also you're the weeb
>>734463893Not like it really matters, they'll all be speaking Hindi soon enough.
>>734464105>NOOOOOOO NOOOOOO I KNOW MORE ABOUT JAPAN THAN YOU THEY LOVE KFC AND SANTA CLAUS LIKE MEBased retard>>734464570Too true
>>734464727We're talking about knowing, not whether they celebrate Santa
>>734464783>We're talking about knowing Knowing what, that anonymous posters on 4chan have a fantasy idea of Japan in their heads?Goes without saying
>>734464967Now you're just talking about yourself
>>734465008Ok weeb, I'm sure you'd fit right in over there being obese with a KFC bucket in your hand or whatever
>>734460431there's hardly any reason to kill most of them despite this. most of them sell the same shit or trash or limited items you should just buy off them right then. about the only time i killed a lot of them was when i did a crossbow run and i killed all the ones that sold elemental ammo. that one in mogwyn in particular is a good one to kill since he sells infinite crafting material for bleed ammo.
>>734461481Look, the Rudolph rights holders just wouldn't budge, okay?
>>734460431I myself just buy the important stuff from remote merchants to ensure I never have to revisit them as I usually try to avoid killing friendly NPCs
