>this made souls boomers shit and piss their pants
kek, the first boss in ER was harder than this bitch
>>
elden ring is open world dark souls 3
>>
>>738728384
Don't be too harsh on them. Demon's Souls and Dark Souls 1 fans were not used to bosses actually moving.
>>
>muh difficulty
Dancer was a great boss because of the visual design and music.
ALL videogames are piss easy because they're designed for children. Bragging about beating difficult games is like bragging about how good you are at riding a bicycle with training wheels.

this was one of the easier bosses in ER, and I'm an absolute shitter

LOL

Isnt this like an optional boss that you can fight almost at the start of the game if you want or wait until you are in endgame gear/level like you did
>>
>>738728384
believe it or not, this boss took me longer than champion gundyr and nameless king

you didn´t make the webm and you didn´t beat the game
only sword and board / 2H is the true souls experience , everything else is made for big babbies.

to be fair half the fight of nameless king is against the camera

mohg is probably the only good boss in this dogshit game, but he isn't hard

>>738728384
All those now easy bosses being put into nightreign really puts into perspective the souls powercreep

NOT PICTURED: 100+ deaths to the boss.
notice how the soul count is at zero.
>>
>>738729740
thats part of the difficulty of FROM games
>>
>>738729706
All western games have tons of unbalanced shit like this, but it's not fun and you don't feel accomplished when doing it because the game was never hard to begin with, so it doesn't matter.
>>
I don't get why people fellate Gael so much.
Friede is a much better fight.
>>
>>738729740
Camera management is a skill. If you complain about the camera you got filtered. Learn how to fight unlocked and manage the camera with the right thumbstick for large bosses.

>all videogames are piss easy because they are made for children
Videogames in the 90s were often made difficult specificially because they were made for children who had lots of time and they didnt want them beating a game in a blockbuster rental period.
Games now are easy because they are NOT made for people who have near unlimited free time.

Discussion of the "gameplay" of these games has become the most one dimensional vapid slop imaginable.

Everything that ever meant anything in the original Dark Souls has been reduced to rolling and mashing the attack button.
It's as complex as a traffic light but there are 20 things happening so you know it's very compelling and very exciting.

I was going to compare Elden Ring to Call of Duty but I legitimately believe under no uncertain terms that modern Call of Duty is more complicated.
Scopes, barrels, magazines, shell types, holsters, muzzles, grips, stocks and random weird wildcard attachments.
All of this revolves around a core gameplay mechanic and something that's objectively more desirable (ADS speed) and this gets weighed against a hundred thousand different combinations of gun.

I have literally nothing else to say. I hate Fromsoft and these games sicken me.
Fallout 76 is the hardest Fallout game because you do dank quickscopes with schizophrenic button mashing.

>>738728384
only for people not using a straight sword (one handed), your quick hits can never be punished in either phase, you can also keep a shield as insurance if your dodge rolls aren't timed right (just gotta release to recharge stam). Every boss in DS3 is solved by this strat.

You not having enough braincells to write something longer than 3 syllables doesn't mean everything else is AI.

Unironically this. Used 2H for most of the playtrough because i wanted to do a STR build but some of the faster bosses were so annoying to try to hit i just switched to an unupgraded 1hander poker and had a billion times easier time.

Elden Ring players would probably still struggle with Ornstein and Smough

You came "in last" and you don't know how the green arrow works.

You can make Zanzibart May Cry and call this crap anything other than Dark Souls.
Try to convince me why bosses hovering mid air and then doing an autistic meltdown ballerina dance at random intervals is "satisfying combat" if you really want to die on this hill.
>>
remember when bosses animations made logical sense based on movement, inertia, etc? remember when they didnt possess anime null-gravity moves to hover and fly around the arena with perfect tracking?

b4 means before, not first, ESL chimp

I'm quoting a 3 hour video essay I didn't watch.

Call it elden ring and you'll still piss and shit your pants
>Try to convince me
Nah

I'm replaying ER with a dex+int build and I think I have only died like 3 times to bosses. Once to tree sentinel, another to the Crucible Knight in redmane castle, and to Radahn

>>738732936
Okay sure just call it elden ring and stop comparing it to Dark Souls under any circumstances.

When you bring up Dark Souls and the game where the giant orc doing spinning backkicks in the same breath I'm going to look at you like you're comparing Pac Man and Call of Duty.

Rolls in Demons' and Dark Souls 1 cost ~30% of your max stamina at base endurance, and ~20% at capped endurance, so roll spam was very debilitating.
>>
>>738735191
in those games you could just move your character out of the way of most attacks
>>
>>738733438
Good point, can't see his bloodstain mind
Which might even be worse, implying he died on his boss rush (and presumably not recovering lost souls because that stain also contained 0)

Yes they want you to spend several months of 1-2 hour sessions a day playing one game and not any other game which is why games these days have so much ubisoft collectathon padding and open worlds

She's one you get teleported to when you finish some of the Lord bosses. You'd still need to at least get past Alrich or the Giant before her. I can't even remember who comes between them... DS3's early game bosses are super dull... There's the witch hat guy, the tree, there's the twin swords guy, and the Artorias clones.
>>
I like Gundyr but I think DS3 really underutilised the huge black sludge shit. That was genuinely freaky to deal with and made me panic if an enemy suddenly started acting strange.
>>
>>738739513
Elder Scrolls is pretty much built around it too. Making busted custom spells and playing with funky artifacts.

The "You didn't beat the game" debate could be resolved by just having achievements dedicated to beating games in different ways. Just having one universal "beat the game" achievement doesn't work. All FromSoft, and devs in general, needs to do is make separate achievements that detect whether you've done in with or without cheese. There can be two achievements for each boss. One for beating the boss, and one for the beating the boss with melee only, at level 1, while also being aggressive and not just baiting out the same safe to punish attacks (could implement a time limit like monster hunter does to encourage riskier aggressive play). This would solve the problem, and immediately expose who the casuals are.

Make it console exclusive. Problem solved.

The first 30-40 hours are decent, if you don't actually try to find all the copy pasted dungeons and "bosses"
It falls off a cliff after that
