Elden Ring in combination with its DLC is the greatest game of all time. Nothing comes even close.

>>730826846You tell em doxed bronyOP I knew you'd come around after a while.
i can't wait until ai really takes off and we can actually have games that look like this
what do people who disagree think is the best game?
>>730826846dlc was trash thoughbeit
>>730826846>the greatest game of all time>improves significantly when you remove half of it (the open world)
>>730826846Careful you'll trigger the bronyfag that can't stand sentences ending in though. >>730826972There he is.
>>730826960That's literally a screenshot from the game, retard-sama.
>>730826972Filtered inferior seanig
i hated the dlc in my first playthrough of it. the second playthrough made me realize it's a masterpiece
>>730826846Rollslop. Souls combat was ruined when they speed it up again post-bloodborne
>>730826960we actually have a game that looks like this
>>730826972yep no one wants to replay it
It's peakslop
>>730827172I literally replay the base game to play the DLC
>>730827104What changed?
>>730826846What, Nightrein?
>the greatest game of all timeNo, the greatest game of all time if Final Fantasy VII (1997).
Probably the best game ever made. No idea how they kept the game fun from beginning to end with so much loreshit everywhere.
>>730827036>>730827078>nooo your opinion is bad you must be the same person!!!retarded niggers
>>730826846i have had the displeasure of playing elden ring for the first time. i genuinely felt disgusted by the gameplay, every single design choice in character movement and gameplay seems to have been made solely to fuck you over. the bossfights being damage sponges full of moves designed around these limitations to make these even more of a handicap is even worse. it's genuinely the worst combat system i ever touched.it's like an anti-stylish action, it's made to make you feel the worst you could ever feel during combat: not even dark souls was this fucked up, at least you could end those gay ass fights quickly
>>730827434
I'd rate DS1, Bloodborne, and Sekiro higher, but Elden Ring is still better than 99% of AAA slop.
>>730827036>>730826932hello dragonirian schizo you sure are active today huh
>>730827660> DS1Death Stranding is trash though
>>730826846>Elden Ring in combination with its DLC is the greatest game of all timeAnyone who says anything remotely like this only got into video games in the past 10 years.Simple as.
>>730827593>full of moves designed around these limitations to make these even more of a handicapThat's basic game design retardbro. But since you used the word "stylish" I can tell you're an idiot that doesn't understand what a good action game is.
>>730827663what the fuck does that even mean?
I am lost in the sewers.
>>730827769i'm talking more about the delayed actions and the hitstun aoe bullshit, that just aint fun with how shit the controls are
>>730827434ff7 (1997) is a shitty visual novel
>>730827838look for an entry from outside the sewers, marked with a lit candle
>>730827838Yeah when you memorize the route it's easy For the last set of pipes, the one you jump down follow the rat and fall down the hole right after it turns to attack you/stops running.
>>730826846I thought the DLC was bad
>>730826846Sex with Ranni
>>730828159Lmao
>>730828159Average Curseblade
Game is stale and boring if you have played fromsoft games. If I didn't know or play their games before and played this, I wouldn't call this as a best game ever. It is fun for its genre but lack the calm and relaxing of games that I would play it over and over again
>>730826969Shandalar
>>730827397i got in a car accident and received a brain injury
REFORGED UPDATE WHEN
>>730826969Black Myth: Wukong
>>730828159>trying to instantly quit out instead of enjoying the 1 in a million eventfaggot lol
>>730826846I just wish it wasn't all so half-baked. I wish Melina had more presence. I wish literally anybody would acknowledge the DLC in the base game areas. I wish madness had more enemy varieties and spells. I wish I had a scene where I consummate my marriage with Ranni
>>730829758>I wish literally anybody would acknowledge the DLC in the base game areas.You haven't met dungeater or goldmask yet? Never saw a single omen?
>>730829758>>730829835Gaymers are retarded. I mean it's obvious marika betrayed the beastmen, serosh was supposed to be the god of the era with Godfrey as his lord. But these nonces can't even infer that.
>>730829835You need to play the dlc and infer that when playing the base game the characters don't out and out tell you the links. The only link you can make from just the base game is assuming the divine towers are ringed around something.
>>730829835You got a quote from either of them on the topic? Any omens say jack shit about it? I'm pretty sure not even Mohg says a peep about the whole affair.
>>730830141Dungeater gives you his manifesto pretty openly. You can't tell he has anything to do with the dlc until you experience the dlc though. Same for Goldmask. The omens were explained in the base game but you can't get the full scope until you play the dlc and talk to someone there. For dungeater and goldmask their clothing explain it more than anything else.
>>730830283You're describing the DLC incorporating elements from the base game, not the DLC being alluded to the in the base game. The DLC wasn't planned. It's based on things that are in the game for the most part, but there are no references to it in the original game.That said, I don't know why this is the standard for FromSoft DLCs. AotA incorporates elements from the base game, but it was only directly reference when it was added (the Sif cutscene). Similarly, DS2 only references its DLC through Aldia, who was added at the same time. And DS3 doesn't really reference its DLC at all, it's a self-contained story that compliments the base game. The Old Hunters is the only DLC that's truly integrated with the base game, because it's so integral to its story.The Souls DLCs have always been side stories.
>>730830526>TRC isn't alluded to in DS3loar
>>730830526The incorporated elements were already there anon.Dungeater already wanted to turn everyone into omensGoldmask already wanted to address the failings of marika's reignThe omens as a populace already existed in the base game.The only thing the dlc did was add context that wasn't there before. Dungeater served in the war in the shadowlands as evidenced by his sun talisman, goldmask is a hornless hornsent as evidenced by his wind motif anklets, terrible mother visage over his crotch, and shawl like an inquisitor. The omen exist because the hornsent cursed marika. Nothing in the dlc changed the base game (in relation to these topics), it only added context to things. You can make a valid argument that the context cheapens the characters, I don't think it does but if you do thats a fine stance to take. I agree the dlcs always feel like side stories, it works in elden ring because it was designed to be something hidden and erased from history canonically.
>>730830782>The incorporated elements were already there anon.That's what I'm saying, but I'm also not the person you were replying to originally so I don't know if he was arguing something else.This board needs IDs badly.
>>730831021I never assumed you were the same person, I only replied to a post replying to me.Those elements were always planned for the dlc that is why those characters have ending routes attached to them. There was always a reason dungeater wanted to turn people into omens and there was always a reason goldmask wanted to fix marika's reign the particular way he did. Those characters always had unexplainable elements to them even before the dlc came out. Its more like chekov's gun than it is ipso facto reasoning like you are implying.
>>730826846Belurat/Enir Elim/Rauth Ruins are hauntingly pretty, I wonder how they can top that.
>>730828358I played their games starting with Dark Souls as they released over the years and found Elden Ring to be the best.
>>730831808Same/v/ is just worthless nowadays
>>730827434>>730826846Have both in my top 5 favorite games. Haven't really thought about the "greatest" games though. Wouldn't it be something like Super Mario, PONG, or Legend of Zelda?
>>730826846I can't decide who's more insufferable in all platforms: RDR2 swifties or ER babs.
>>730830283I meant going the other direction. The DLC just adds context, but doesn't touch any dialogue from the base game at all. Everything that happens in the DLC is completely contained, like an event horizon where you're the only exception. They didn't even bother to add any new endings.
>>730826969there is no best game of all time, and elden ring is just dark souls with a horse
