Yeah, I'm sick of the Demon's Souls era animations and AI. They genuinely need to learn from games like Monster Hunter and Dragon's Dogma. Why can I not climb up the giant monsters and instead have to hit their ass or hind leg? It's insane how shitty some aspects of the game are

Name 10 things that Elden Ring excels at that weren't done better in older games.
>>
>>733717819
While I don't think Elden Ring is God's Gift to Gaming I think it's fair to acknowledge it basically killed the western open worldslop genre by essentially being so much better than the rest of the triple A garbagecan that the rest stopped trying. Every open world game to come out since has flopped super hard and I think they were all just things that were already in development before it released

And I think that was a fucking public service.
>>
>>733718756
1) Elden Ring excels at making people very reluctant to replay the game, because the open world is a fucking chore

Pretty much, hopefully their next game finally puts behind all the Souls baggage and they move towards a better standard, ER shows many signs of that but it's still very much rooted in old Souls sensibilities, Nightreign goes a bit further but again, there's still too many Souls-y bits.
>>
>>733718817
it basically didn't kill anything, games like Hogwarts still sold extremely well, plus they actually have 'real' quest design unlike ER where you randomly meet one of the 5 npcs every 10 odd hours until you find them bleeding out, pick up their items and voila. that is, they do need the map markers
(the graces direct you to the next story boss, maps in ER still outline the dungeons as well as the locations of the remaining map pieces and they've added a NPC list in an update so praising it for not holding your hand is retarded)
The freakiest thing of all is obviously that most people still use online guides to progress through these games so... what's the fucking difference?

I hate to say it but I desperately want a new FROM Souls game to dump hundreds of hours into. There's a ton of great games in the subgenre by other devs, some even surpassing FROM's efforts in many ways, but nothing hits quite like FROM's offerings.

ER is cool but i still think the open world aspect was more of a negative

upgrading equipment is annoying because of bell bearings, traversing is kind of dull because torrent feels floaty (and it had to, because otherwise traversing would've been tedious instead of dull)

Lazy "open world" that feels generated rather than designed, 90% of the bosses have the same fundamentals, only like 7 truly unique bosses, ugly as fuck armor, poorly optimized, boring as shit spattering of the same groups of like 5 enemies, every ruin/cave/dungeon is the exact same, shitty horse mechanics, can't customize horse, retarded tryhard lore with far too many "M" names, only two likeable NPCs, 460000000 dragons (all the same btw), too easy, too many sites of grace, literally no stakes (except stakes of Marika hurr-durr), introduced like 40 status effects that you literally only see once if at all. The list goes on and on. It's the most 3/10 game I've ever played.

I liked the open world aspect, for me the problem was that there's no friendly cities. How can there be like a dozen people total in the whole Lands Between who aren't hostile to the player? It's pretty ridiculous. Hopefully the From's next game is an actual RPG, similar to Witcher 3 or KCD etc

Not really. Lies of P for instance is excellent but it doesn't deliver the same sense of adventure or grandeur that you get from a FROM game. It feels more like an action-adventure game, with a set character and tight levels with little deviation and a well-structured narrative.

I want to be a murderhobo on a grand quest that I do not understand, while occasionally engaging with other muderhobos in a friendly or unfriendly capacity.

Correct. The masses who notoriously enjoy pure garbage (who also happen to be the only people that love this game) pretty much guarantee we're never going to see a good title from Fromsoft ever again. The blind and open-mouthed acceptance of garbage is why big studios no longer make good or finished games. You're to blame, and there's no way around that.

DS formula was fun because it was an underdog powerfantasy with a little git gud in it.

They just follow the most viable builds they find online. Everyone can do that. Even asmongold pussied out because he was getting raped in ER, and resort to a pure meme shield character. In ER its more about your character build, then skill, which is gay.

I enjoyed playing this game a lot and even gave it 9,5/10 in my head after finishing but as time passed I realized this game wasn't that good. Yeah it's miles better than modern slop and it's *satisfying* to play but compared to previous FS games it just doesn't hit or impress nearly as hard. Too many ideas were reused lazily (Alexander is basically Siegmeyer once again), music was bland mostly bland, nearly every boss fight felt samey and safe. /v/ shits on ER's open world but at least it's a new feature, I think FS did a good job with it. I just wish they stopped milking same ideas from previous games and go Assassin's Creed route of safe, soulless clones designed for mindless engagement.

You're uselessly pitting two communities against each other, when the reality is that a lot of people that enjoyed BOTW also enjoyed Elden Ring, and vice versa, because those games share the same kind of philosophy which is just throwing you inside an open world with barely any context and just letting you do whatever you like in that world, tackle anything in almost any order and so on

There's plenty of genres that aren't even comparable to Elden Ring.
For example, who would say they can't enjoy Silksong or Outer Wilds or any shooter because Elden Ring exists?

I played OG before playing the remake to refresh my memory and while I think its a masterpiece, I think the remake is better, it's more cohesive, it removes a lot of gimmicks that at best didn't fit with the rest and at worst detracted from the experience (QTE) the only thing the original has over the Remake is Salazar, they turned him into a generic villan while in the OG he was incredibly memorable. But no wthe whole game just feels incredibly polishes and consistent, even the island section now is just as good as the rest of the game, llike' there's literally barely any flaws.

I've been replaying a bit of it recently, and I have to say I am enjoying it a fair bit more than I did when it came out. It still doesn't touch Demon's Souls and Dark Souls 1 for me, but it's easily superior to either of the Dark Souls sequels.

It's true, Souls combat has been shallow since DeS, and Fromsoft does nothing but double down on the action without actually trying to make the combat interesting, tell me the difference between fighting a regular godrick soldier and a divine best warrior. You roll and punish, that's it, the same goes for all of the bosses.

>>733734432
The game is in the middle using those two as a metric really, having replayed DS3 recently I could tell that Ashen one swings faster and something about his rolls is noticeably better, Tarnished on the other hand feels more like a restrained version of that to put it simply.

Though personally I'm in love with the approach they went with Nightreign, it's fast and fluid but at the same time not as spastic as DS3.

It's very easy to point to the easily triggered fans and call it a day, after all difficulty is the perfect excuse to remove any doubts about the series being watered down. Anything that doesn't involve memorization tests is either downgraded or removed entirely.

>NPCs in the hub world and several areas in the world are invincible
>No consequences for killing merchants
>Cannot get invaded solo, only if you summoned anyone
>Number of players in an online session reduced from 6 to 4, giving hosts a massive advantage

The watering down of the series didn't start yesterday, it began after DS1 until it reached it's peak with Elden Ring. Fromsoft has shown that they are no different from the average AAA slop developer. But as long as they don't add an easy mode they will keep getting away with it, easily brainwashing the masses to achieve higher and higher profits. You know what's the funniest thing about all of this? The game journalists that you mocked for years ended up getting what they wanted.

I was really hoping DD2 would be good enough to spawn tons of imitators like this did.
Not that I don't like Elden Ring, I just want a more varied selection of open-world ARPGs.

why didnt you hope for ddda spawning imitators

he didnt mention loot. the fact you had to bring it up proves that the world is fucking boring to explore with repetitive "content"

they are so lucky their player base are morons who need to listen to 10 hour youtube videos to get at least a surface level understanding of the retardation that is background story of these little electronic amusements

er recycled monsters, open world is pointless and added nothing, just a knee jerk reaction to botw
the world map and world design/ map designs are all bad, copy pasted etc
check points at every boss invalidated the maps and progress, its just not a good game. a lot of the boss fights were buggy janky dog shit rolling nonstop or glitching and being stuck in a bolder

I can honestly say I've never once cared enough about the lore to look shit up

Elden Ring is Zelda 1 on NES brought to the modern day. Even BOTW failed in that regard by having no good dungeons or caves.

Honestly, I was able to take the skelton route in DS1 easily, right after I figured out how the enemies behave.
On the other hand, I cant go from limgrave straight to caelid and not get analy raped in every corner.
Dont blame the players for taking that yolo approach. FS has programmed them to do that with DS games. And you know what? I love this yolo approach. Its the definition of underdog powerfantasy. ER is a min/max fag powerfantasy and a different beast from DS games
There are so many options in ER, you can easily get lost and fuck up your build/boss approach. This wasnt a problem in the previous titles due to their limitations. You don't necessarily need to follow a guide to be good in DS1, but lord have mercy on you if you have missed that goddamned weapon you need for your build, you dont wear the correct talismans and havent found that copycat summon yet. Yes, you can rest your stats in ER, but people tend to get super invested in their shitty builds they wont have it otherwise, and would rather go yolo mode and then complain about it online.

You're not supposed to reply with a game that is literally 5/10, anon.
