Never forgive, never forget
The more I play this game the more I realise the only way to play it by rolling forward and sometimes slightly to the side.
this malenia bitch is ruining my life
>>489852819Radahn is so fucking handsome I'd do anything to marry him. He's the hottest guy in the lands between.
>>489853173calm down miquella
>manage to figure out smithbox to mod>set health maximum as 2100 hp + all the hp you'd get from the flask>set fp as practically infinite>change bull-goat talisman toughness valuesI can now play as a boss myself. I wonder if this will be fun
>>489853086Anything other than waterbrap and the clone attack shouldn't give you any problem.
Justice for Lord Mohg.

good afternoon erg, what's new?
>>489852915They deserved it.

>>489854512Just like the shamans deserved the jar treatment
>>489854613he's weak to holy
>>489854674to be fair yes, nobody in the lands between is 100% morally pure, so I don't trust it when the propaganda tells me the shamans were 100% pure

>>489854613skelebros with greatshield, buff them, heal from afar for them and you just throw black flame at him until he dies.
>>489854414its morningnothing's new
>>489854512They literally didn't du nuthin. What they did was righteous and justified. You telling me you would not retaliate if i spat in your face?
I hate ranni. I understand why wasn't the final boss. If they kept everything the same and just swapped radahn out for godwyn then that means, with the two general interpretations of "radahn was in on it" or "radahn was brainwashed" ranni would've saved the lands between from getting mibdraped by miquella and put a halt to his plans, or she could've in a fucked up way, temporarily saved godwyn from getting mindraped by miquella. Even if that's not why she did it, that would he the two results and it would take away a lot of the evil of the main bad thing ranni did, killing godwyn. It would've retroactively justified his death and even if she did it for selfish reasons, made her a hero and made the rannisimps who are already an annoying pest, even more vocal about how great and wonderful she is. But I still think it should've been malenia, we had stuff in the game for it already, in the base game cut quest they could've been a duo boss kinda like what we have already now. The things are already there for it. They should've just done it. With how gowry and even miquella talks about her and us not getting "god slain" upon beating her its clear she's still fucking alive so why not have the two siblings properly reunited? Why? We know miquella wanted to cure the rot affliction from her, we could've gotten a miquella that if not cured her rot, allowed her more control over it without it eating away at her or others unwittingly. We could've had, instead of the unwilling goddess of rot, malenia, lord of rot alongside her brother miquella god of compassion. Hell we could've even got something for malenia, with miquella at her side, being more compassionate to the kindred, finally accepting them even if she's killed by us shortly after. Or they could've kept the cut base game quest of us being miquella's consortOr they could've kept the cut dlc ending where we side with miquella and radahn and are wed to malenia. Anything would've been better than what we got.
Malenia did nothing wrong.
>>489853789based
is there any order to malenias attacks or she just does random ones?
>Dryleaf set is the perfect "wandering warrior-priest" drip. >Have to go all the way to the second half of the DLC for it.Should I just stop being so addicted to Faith builds? They're so fun... there's so many spells I haven't tried...
Is the Greatsword of Damnation any good at lower levels?>>489856054You can get Dryleaf Arts, Seal, and set without killing any boss.
>>489855548while i think death should've been the focus, (someone) + miquella on their back is stupid no matter what
>60 DEX>60 FTH>Godskin Peeler>Electrify Armament>Golden Vow>Winged Sword Insignia>Millicent's Prosthesis>Thorny Cracked Tear>Two-Handed Sword TalismanTime to game :)
>>489852819>Anons in last thread saying Sellen was likely rapedWith who and with what?
>>489856350Wouldn't that build work better with the new holy twinblade + holy buff?It has the same moveset as the peeler and innate holy damage.
>>489853086just summon tiche
>>489855548Mickey lost.Ranni won.
>>489855841At 75% health she will always do the waterfowl dance.
>>489855548Radahn is just shoved in for Miyazaki's pedo black sissification fetish
>>489856694They literally just turned him into some tranny fugtrup Ganondorf knockoff
>>489856587True, I forgot about Euporia because I'm not at Enir-Ilim yet.Twinblades are so fun, I look forward to trying this one out.
>Skibidi level 17>Gaius's retard thrashing about and/or precision strikes gutted 1/3 of my health, if not moreThose chink retards haven't playtested shit.

>people struggle with Sunflower, Gaius and Rominahow did you even make it this far into the game?
>Shadow of the erdtree>Not one quest associated with itI feel like I got cucked out of something
>>489854742Yea but Hornsent are Canaanite as fuck and that makes Marika 100% justified to genocide.

*destroys the game*
>>489856774my teacherwife.>>489856541By me.
>>489857223whats the order to read this>>489856962yeah the scadutree isn't important at all
>>489857024Hornsent made the chaddest Talisman in the game so it was all worth it in the long term.
>>489856774>no feet
>>489856953How do you even group Gaius with those other two?
>>489856897degeneracy isn't purely sexual acts, it just means a lack of morals which torture would fall into.
>>489857431Isn't the term used in the japanese version "hentai" (pervert )?
>>489842229I'm sowwy
What was fia talking about, what hallowbrand?
>>489857776She's talking about the cursemark from the Dark Souls series, you're playing DSIIII

>>489857732Hentai has a broader definition but it's obviously signaling something sexual here and anybody trying to tell you "nuh uh nihongo doesn't work that way" is clueless and bullshitting you.
>>489857431>>489858212Where are the Japanese translation anons to post her Japanese lines proving she's talking about rape and stuffs
>>489856694>>489856730It's all but confirmed miquella is the top. Even most normalfags now think so. It's over.
I just realized I have more fun using the wiki to play the game.
I am convinced it is impossible to do Sellen's quest without a guide>No errm all you have to do is find the illusory wall dungeon in Caelid, then find the other illusory wall inside the illusory dungeon, then find the hidden NPC wizard on Mount Gelmir, then remember the clone Sellen in the Weeping Peninsula sex dungeon you found 40 hours ago and then forgot about because you couldn't do anything there, then find Selluvis' hidden sex dungeon, then find the illusory wall behind that illusory wall, then talk to Jerren for literally no reason at all, and then magically know you have to be at Rennala but actually in front of her arena and not inside the room itself I am convinced it is impossible to do Sellen's quest without a guide
>Serrosh is Lord of Beasts>Hourah Loux is tied to the Crucible>stitching Serrosh onto Hourah Loux makes him more regal and less savagehow tf this make sense?
>>489858741Godfrey was originally a beastman. Serosh is his St Trina, split off from him to tame his bestial instinct after he was no longer needed as a berserking warlord to destroy the erdtree's enemies. He 'kills' Serosh to absorb its essence, regaining his original beastmen strength and instincts.If you look closely, you can see that Godfrey's axe is actually made of the same material and with the same engravings as the beastmen cleavers from Farum Azula.
>>489858605No because of the infinite monkey theorem.
>>489858193>aaaa tarnished can't kill a godThe people who said otherwise were kind of a kooky crowd so I can see why Gideon would take the contrarian position if only to distance himself from their shitshow.
>>489859020Oh that makes sense, he's divested not stitched on
>>489858605That is the reason I'm using the wiki to play the game from now on. Gonna restart my run after 20 hours.
>>489859067>greater will is going to fall to his blade>says man wielding a club
>>489859330He does have a zwei in the stormhill shack so... uh... yeah...
Is it possible to get banned for using the Boss Arena mod or is it safe to use? What about using CE to revive bosses?
>>489852819Best overall spear?
Dragonclaw fucking sucks, how is this not just a worse maw?
Whoever decided to put the boss fog for coopers here deserves to be hanged and quartered. I seriously mean it. It's Dragonbarrow Cave syndrome but 10 time more cancer.
It's blowing my mind that there is a connection between the Numen and Nox. Is there a place where I can read up on ER's setting and lore in detail? I don't want to watch hours long youtube videos.
>>489859067I don't understand how his lore talked about his maiden throwed himself into the fire. So he passed Morgott and need to burn Erdtree, but they are still alive? Because no destined death so they came back? Or was it "in his world" thing ala dark souls?
>>489859869what connection is there?
Did Ymir know Miquella? He talks of him with such sadness, like he truly does feel for the guy. Misguided or not. Probably because they both share a sort of contempt for their mothers/“mother”.
>>489859020How did a beastman become a human?
Am I missing out on something by playing a pirated version of the game? is the online important for the experience?
>>489860019They’re both boys with mommy issues yes
>>489860121Yes, and yesYou can have a bunch of fun in multiplayer, and a lot of unfun. I enjoy cooping with randoms cause it's basically free runes as long as the Host isn't a paste eater
Why are fextralife comments so fucking bad
>>489860019Probably not personally as he was with Carian and may left long time ago before Radagon even came in picture.It's just Ymir projecting himself as mommy to random kids he thought of as neglected again.
>>489860046The black knives are scions of the eternal city according to rogierNox are inhabitants of the eternal cityThe black knives according to their description are likely numenNumen are the race of marikaThe black knives according to their description have some connection to marika
>>489860334Because normies weren't gatekept properly.
>>489859067Bernahl is so badass.Fave NPC alongside Ymir.
>>489855682she didn't marry me
>>489860019he knows Miquella was aware of his cursed lineage and he feels sadness by the fact that he is abandoning everything to cleanse himself from the sins of his mother. He may have known him as he seems to know more than the average guy, unless this was common knowledge
>>489860315Well, guess I'll have to give Gabe my money.And looking at the payer count, the game seems pretty active still.
>>489860431While Ymir is likely a Carian, you see the cuckoo bird cages associated with Raya Lucarians in his cathedral. The way he is talking of glintstone sorcery is also eerily similar to Sellen’s words on the matter.I still don’t know what those cages are for to be honest. Did the birds squawking do an important thing? Could they detect the sorcerers who were body swapping?
>try to make smithscript build>effective range is 5 feet>Arrow Reach talisman barely helpswhy is FromSoft like this?the falloff is like dam - (distance^2) why is exponential it should be linear
Remember Melina? lol
>>489860019Miquella may have stopped by briefly to have a small chat, and they sympathized with the other. Both know that the order is rotten and tainted and ironic and flawed.Miquella proooobably would have wanted Metyr taken out, had he been successful, and in that sense he probably understood Ymir’s concerns, even shared them.
>>489860884I remember. She’s cute
>>489860884Who?
>>489860862Wizards just like birds anonIntelligent creatures they are
why does fromsoft hate invaders so much? some of these fights are literally unwinnable no matter what you do
>>489860431Do you think the demigods would turn out so fucked up of ymir adopted them and raised them as his kids? Would they turn out better if he was their piccolo
Someone on fextralife said “silly Ymir, men can’t get pregnant” and it got more downvotes than upvotes
>>489860121made it a point to preorder after pirating the previous souls games + sekiro... definitely a lot less lonely this time around, plus the online easily added 1400 hours to my playtime
>>489860862To be fair sellen herself has carian connections. It's likely that he left around the time the cuckoos were subjugated by the carians but before rennala went mad.
>>489861336kekstralife sisters...
>>489861336I believe you.>>489861390Inb4 “nyooo she’s not a stinky carian there is nyooo proof of this nyooo”.
holy fucking shit they need to just outright DELETE 3/4ths the range of bone bow's WA. You can snipe people for full damage from two times the range of great jar's. for like ten times the DPS. It's literally impossible to kill an invader using it, they just run away behind mobs peppering you.
>>489860884>felt genuinely connected to her>wanted to save her>did the frenzy burning>needle'd myself after>to bring the level up wife back>no special scene>realize she appeared for like 3 minutes, still miss her dearly I am dumdum?
>>489856541The phrase "raped to death" is so hot.
Imagine if sorceries used by the players had the same range as the sorceries as used by the sorcerer enemies, and they could target lock much farther.How bad would PvP be?
>>489861653No, but like its still in character for her for that, she probably like views you like a ticking time bomb and also like feels betrayed that she was open with you about what she wanted to do and that you ripped that away from her
>>489861779It should have been this way. Projectiles that fade away are ducking stupid. We’re supposed to be snipers and they don’t let us be snipers…
>>489860046>take beastman>remove beast>left with man
>>489861501Her being a carian would actually be good for sellenfags because of that whole sword giving ceremony they have and she gives you her dagger
I just noticed that Cherishing Fingers blocks/deflects projectilesOh my god
>>489859932>>489860531Meant for you my mistake>>489861836Yeah that's what I always thought. She seems genuinely happy yet solemn when she burns herself. It seems like it's not just something she did but something she wanted to do, her goal, her dream, and taking that from her made her ghost us.
>>489862170It’s also hilarious to picture. Sellen is the rebellious teenaged bad girl who ran from her totally lame and not cool and no fun allowed family/house, running into cool old dude Azur in the process.
>>489858193>I'm rolling with Mohg.It will fuck up your finger and your brain.
>>489861836it kinda bothers me that so many people get mad that Melina doesnt return to you after using the needle but like, simply the act of inheriting the flame of frenzy is a huge betrayal to the trust she laid on you, its a removal of her purpose and dooming her to live on burned and bodyless. She isnt grateful you spared her because you decided for her, you removed her autonomy.
>>489858605absolutely. more improbable than finding millicent at the altus plateau or irina at that one place.they have to fckn improve this. it's asinine
What are some borderline broken and unfair weapons+ash of war combos for PvE (strictly pve) ? And I dont mean your roleplaying animu katana that requires 200 hits to kill a boss. Something busted like bloodhound claws + bloodflame blade that shreds motherfuckers.
>>489858193>>489859067Reminder, Gideon thinks you, the player, are a low iq retard. He thinks you’re too stupid to realize he sent Ensha after you, and he considers you just another useful pawn right after. YOU ARE THE NEW ENSHA.
>>489862620Is he wrong though?
>>489862445Ok Miquella
>>489862710is that a--
Courting Nepheli
>>489862791>>489862710advertiserbros...? What is this?
Gideon can spam Comet without a damn catalystWhy the fuck does he need the player to do anything for himLazy piece of shit
Why didn't Miquella get us onboard with his age by offering our hand in marriage to his newly-cured 2.5m amazonian-yet-cute sister? Was he stupid?
>>489862970It doesn’t matter how powerful one is, shit can still happen.
>>489863105He still thinks as a Lord, so he believes he has to take a noble consort to have a right to the throne.He's just so far gone that he doesn't realize the old order is no more.
>>489862507I think autonomy is a big theme in elden ring in general. While it's not outright stated, it's likely marikas resentment for radabeast came from her losing autonomy under them, ranni herself always gives you the choice to follow her of your own will and even her other followers it's hammered home that they follow her willingl despite knowing what's going to happen, golden order fundamentalism from what little we know of it is the aspect of the golden order with the least autonomy for others and its one rejected by goldmask, ranni, miquella, and marika herself, miquella, a character painted as subtly evil though with good intentions has the ability to remove/alter autonomy. Even the hornsent, in what they did to marikas people removed their autonomy as well.
>>489860019Ymir mentions that Miquella knew his "bloodline is tainted" or whatever he said, you do need to be aware he hates Metyr and isn't mentally well
>>489858573Oh yes, he forces the bull's cock into the ass so he's the top. Surely
>>489863348>isn't mentally wellGeniuses usually are.
>>489862620>>489862710I think he is wrong, infact I think his title of all knowing is meant to be ironic. Much of what the guys says to us is heresay, we have to directly tell him many things, some of which he brushes off despite their importance, and when he finally does learn something at the end he loses his shit.
>>489863435He's not a genius though, neither are you
Fight an ETERNAL WAR without GRACE or HONOR
>>489863445His title of All-Knowing isn’t literal, it just denotes how he has a perfect memory.If he actually knew everything he wouldn’t be possible to defeat or outsmart
>>489863105>>489863258There's a cut ending for the dlc where miquella asks you to marry his sister and attacks you if you refuse. We could've had kino.
>>489862620>He thinks you’re too stupid to realize he sent Ensha after youDoesn't he say something like "Ensha got ahead of himself" which to me sounds an awful lot like he definitely ordered Ensha to kill the Tarnished but Ensha did it a few days before he was supposed to.
FIND THE ALBINAURIC WOMAN
i still think it's pretty cool though, dying and being buried with ears for some reason
>>489863497He’d have to be a genius to be the magic instructor of Rellana, and reinvent finger sorceries in his own image. He’s casually dropping the most heavy lore in the game and can be compared to Isaac Newton in matters of greater will (God) analogies, in relation to the universe/physics.
>>489863282I like that idea because it fits in with my fanfic.>>489863642What is cut is not canon.And it's a shame, because DaS2 would've been awesome if...
>>489863559Do you think this is what happened to Messmer before he left?
>>489858193>I'm rolling with Mohg.Mohglesters assemble
>>489863497He’s a male Sellen. Both use the same words, and both are trying to surpass the human form. Transhumanist lunatics.
>>489863715What's up with like the like weird little goblin man in the top right giving him the Lance of longinus
Does Elden Ring have any good mods besides seamless?
>>489863884Don't compare my teacher to a schizo malepreg fag
>>489863948Ah yes, the orgyball obsessed witch is so much better than and different from the fingers obsessed priest. Would you rather like balls or dick?
>>489863497But YOU are a genius and anon is literally you so he's a genius too.
>>489863642people keep mentioning this and i havent seen as shred of evidence>>489863348even if he is unhinged there is really no reason to believe he is lying, the big theme of the dlc is abandonment by mothers and Metyr is indeed disconnected from the greater will
>>489860865Arrow Reach works really well on the hammer.The Shield has very good reach.The Axe feels pretty good to use as a main weapon, the R2 is kinda shit but the jump throws work well.The Cirque is OP as shit because of the weapon type but it doesn't have much range.It's just the Spear and maybe the Throwing Knives that are unusable.
>>489863559This was Godfrey's POV 24/7 every time he returned to their room and will be his POV again after you kill him and find her corpse after the final fight, afterlife sex
>People think the fag who wants to be a mother knows what he is talking about.
Did Ymir actually have a human child named Yuri, or does he name all of his failed fingercreepers that?
>>489864173it's not that he may be lying or not, but more like his words aren't trustworthy. come on, he gave some random fingers his dead kid's name
Malenia and Romina did nothing wrong.>B-but scarlet rot... KILLS PEOPLE?Every scarlet rot zone in Elden Ring has incredible atmosphere. Without the Scarlet Rot the entire world of Elden Ring looks like recolors of Limgrave. The Rot did nothing wrong. Radahn deserved it btw.
>>489863921Dwpwnds on what you mwan by goodThere's some Overhaul mods that you might like. There's a fewThere's map for goblins if you want to just have a map that shows where everything isThere's the posture bar mod if yoy wanna see like ehwne the enemy is going to break
>>489864236Of course the spear is the one I wanted to use.I guess I can't be a grecco-roman soldier
>>489863445I always interpreted his title as someone with an extensive informant network, like Varys in Game of Thrones.
>>489857024>Yea but Hornsent are Canaanite as fuckGreat comparison. Obviously the only major difference is how Hornsent were just as if not more advanced than the GO societies considering what they built.
>>489864673We know metyr isn't in contact with the greater willWe know miquella did indeed discard parts of himselfWe know marika's beginning was awful with the whole shaman jarring thingWhat he says about the greater will creating life backs up what hyetta and the golden order itself believes
Where did Miquella discard his penis?
>>489857024>Hornsent are Canaanite
>>489865554he didnt, he needs that for his promised consort
>>489865151I'M IMPREGNATING BOTH ROT MOMMIES
>>489865554In Radahn's ass
>>489865554Leda...
>>489865668>>489865719What about his… y’know… bussy status?
>>489858741Serrosh is biting into/clawing Godfrey. It's like as if Godfrey was wearing a spiked muzzle. If Godfrey acts out of line Serrosh bites harder.Why Serrosh agreed to this being arguably more wild than Godfrey, who knows. Probably some "We became frens :D" shit like Godwyn and Fortissax
>>489865334>as someone with an extensive informant networkwell that is something he does have
All of you are wrong. Trina is the one with dick. Mike never had one.
It's insane that Messmer was heavily advertised and yet barely actually matters to the DLC story. The concept behind his character is a million times more compelling than the stupid story they wrote for Miquella.
>>489865954I imagine Marika had something to do with it, she needs his murder hobo strength but she also needs him to act as a lord, which is what serosh is for
>>489863497>Tarnished proves the biggest conspiracy theory ever, something the most erudite scholars of the age never put togetherBy all accounts the Tarnished is in fact a genius.
>>489865314You can cope by using the Messmer Spear and pretending you're a GoW character.
>Marika is a numen>Marika is a shamanWhich is it, Miyazaki?
>>489865707You can't impregnate a bugMaybe she can get you pregnant. It's probably like The Alien though so maybe try to avoid that
>>489866525The most powerful character in the lore.
>>489866710>You can't impregnate a bugYou lack my faith and my willingness.
>>489866525...
>>489865954>>489866094Marika used her shaman nonsense to graft him onto him. Serosh wore a crown and likely did before godfrey. He was likely the leader of the beastmen or a leader.
>>489866650Different name for the same race. Think African American and niggerI like to think that back in Crucible era, there were two kind of people - the exalted ones who were born with horns and the hornless monkey. To compensate, these hornless monkey processed to wear tranny horns, a tradition they still keep to the modern day

>>489866650Shamen isn't a name for a race, retard, it's a lifestyle/religion. The Numen were Shamens.
>>489869916excellent photo anon, save'd and post more please
man online died so fast again
>>489870985And the Nox were essentially edgy, fedora tipping Numen that abandoned the Shamen lifestyle for facts and logic
good morning erg!
>>489869787that's not Radahn
The big loretubers sure have been quiet since the dlc drop. I think even they know it's shit.
>>489871517isn't the Nox tie to the Numen cut cuntent and not canonthought they were an offshoot of the astrologers in the same vein that the Carians are related and descended from to both
>>489871587Hai
>>489871230i have a few bayle pics i can show, i have some other miscellaneous pic from other bosses aswell
>>489871587good rya morning poster
Why is the common belief that Radahn was charmed? They rub the vow in your face in 3 different cutscenes and then call him the "promised" consort. Miquella's followers at the end of the game aren't even charmed either, most of them follow him by their own choice since you can convince them not to.Is it Vaati's fault?
>>489871587It is night.You are not HIM
>>489871505theres still over 120,000 people in game. Most sane people are just well above level 200 at this point
>>489871730the dlc lore is either1. bad2. shallowyou can't work with that shit (just kidding, you can)
>>489871897"Radahn" (Mohg) was charmed
>>489871505I wonder how much the perception of online being 'dead' stems from FROM's godawful matchmaking taking forever to find people to play with.
>>489871870this one is phenomenal, it could have been one of the intro sequence paintings >>489872380damn your Type B be on her swole style bby
>>489871759>The assassins that carried out the deeds of the Night of the Black Knives were all women, and rumored to be Numen who had close ties with Marika herself. >They say the assassins who carried out the deed were scions of the Eternal City. A group entirely of women, arrayed in armour of silver under cloaks which fooled the eye.Plus the nox are literally called MarikaKin ot some shit in the game files
How do you feel about gay Radahn being where Elden Ring ends, forever?
>>489872929at least he had cool music
>>489871883>>489871797
>>489872929Game ends with Ranni though.
>>489871759No it's tying together the black knife set descriptions and rogier calling the black knives scions of the eternal cities where the nox reside. They're also named marikakin in the files.
>>489872787>Black Knife Armor>Sorcerer Rogierpretty good, though the tendency in this game's lore to point out what things are rumour and what things are fact has always been interesting on its own, based off items alone truly no one in-game has a definitive answer, not even you, which I find pretty neat myself
What’s the actual point of Miriam’s Vanishing? You barely move like a meter.
>>489873369for following it up with carian piercer
>>489872929unironically a fitting end, although the game ended at Bayle for me which was even better

Guys I have a confession to make.I don't find the names of the gods/demigods confusing to remember at all. I've literally never mixed up Godwyn, Godefroy, Godfrey, or Godrick's names. Marika, Melina, Malenia, Miquella, Messmer, Morgott, Margit, Mohg...they're not hard to remember. I can't help but look down on those who can't keep track of them or imply that they're too similar to remember.

I still don't understand how to dodge Waterfowl Dance other than running away or using a frost pot. I haven't been able to pull off the close-range dodge method even once.
>>489873930What was his endgame if his plan actually worked? Just keeping Ranni as a literal rapedoll for the rest of time? Was he too horny to think long-term?
>>489875514you circle her and then move forward
>>489875570You need more?
>>489875514It's unintuitive and retarded>Run away if you have time, if you have light roll you can roll it point blank>Roll into it>Unlock and roll away
Holy fuck Malenia's finally dead.I never learned memedance though, about 40 attempts deep I accepted that I wasn't going to dodge it and threw the greatshield on.
>>489853065>The more I play this game the more I realise the only way to play it by rolling forward and sometimes slightly to the side.Yea dog, I can never remember to backstep
>>489875514play it at .25 speed its not that complicatedshe comes down out of her shit and you walk out of it
>>489875570>.jfif.png>Was he too horny to think long-term?yes
>>489875570According to cut content he was planning on raping you too
Are the Hornsent related to the Rauh or Nox?
>>489874971No soup for you.
>>489875570I feel like there's way more overt mentions and elbow nudges towards sex than in previous Fromsoft titles. Seluvis's creepy sex basement, Rya's whore mother, Marika's sexcapades, Fia's entire existence, Sellen's implied rape/torture (according to the anons itt at least), and probably more than I can think of at the moment. It's a sharp change from dark souls where everyone's dick were shriveled and falling off. With the introduction of "romance" with Ranni and technically post-game Marika, I wonder if they intend of adding a full fledged NPC romance mechanic in the next game.
>>489875514Block the first flurry, roll into the second, roll away from the third.
>>489877039it's Gurm's influence and I'm not complaining. it adds a lot to the game

Am I wrong for thinking that 99 Arcane and a Silver Scarab Talisman should be enough to farm any drop in less than 20 kills? I know that's not the case, but I think it should be.

>>489877557>rape, promiscuity and ritualistic sex>jap fetishesDo you honestly think that the Japanese have a monopoly on rapists and whores?
>>489877905huh?
Just beat Elden Ring for the 5th time. Ask me anything.
>>489874591You're posting people who are willing to sink tens of hours in bosses to learn their ins and outs. It's not a reasonable ask for most people. Also, the game does a pretty shit job of teaching most people about all their mobility options, but that's normal. Most of Dark Souls 1 difficulty came from how convoluted some of the systems seemed at first glance due to shit explanations. I know you're supposed to figure it out on your own, but path of least resistance. Also path of least resistance is that it's easier to just roll everything. Having two different types of dodges forces the player to get used to two different timings. It requires that the player quickly read that an attack is jumpable and then execute the jump. Meanwhile, a dodge will work for any attack, whether jumpable or not. ER is a pretty difficult game, at least until you stumble into an optimal build (or use the mimic). Bosses give very little room for error. This combined with years of left over Souls knowledge means that most players are encouraged towards less fun and less risky playstyles.
>>489854742Jarburg is 100% innocent. You cannot tell me with a straight face that the coz’s are anything but good.Furthermore, the nomadic merchants were assumedly good people prior to the Frenzy Flame shit, which wasn’t their fault.
>>489877905Tell From to add the Miquella ending.
I went on a genocidal jar rampage on jarburg when I saw the heckin' tiny jar stuffing Diallos' inside of him, TJD
>>489878241yeah
>>489878784wtf is Jarburg?
Let’s make a few things clear.1. The Hornsent were trying to grow their own big ass tree, in the form of a spiral, or twisty tree. 2. The Gate of Divinity was to go hand in hand with this divine project. One tree to go with one god—and one Ring.3. Marika stole this from them. She stole the idea/project, stepped into the Gate on her own terms, and took the Ring.Very much a Tower of Babel sort of deal. Some possibilities - The Scadutree may be the failed corpse of the Spiral. Or at least related to it in a way; it is being spiraled around.- The Shaman are perhaps a surface or survival of remnant of the old dynasty of the Eternal.- The Gaols are the ruins of the Eternal, and are cold places where swordhands of night are raised and trained.Marika also reformed jar culture. They’re hardly the horrible thing they once were.
>>489877039Hopefully not. Glad they won't be collaborating with that fat slob ever again
>and you can find a mike's lily right here at this graveyard>meaning he sucked the corpses dick clean to give them a proper burial
>>489878784Jars are basically walking coffins.It was literally just doing it's job.
>>489878434Did you rike it? How many hours in game do you have?>>489878895good post
>>489878837>a spiral, or twisty tree.Thank you for clarifying.
>>489878837tldr
>>489878758>Tell From to add the Miquella ending.if From sends people to the court hearing, i'll be sure to tell him people want a miquella endingI'm up against Bandai Namco, not FROM itself. Can't go after FROM unless you live in Japan.
>>489878784"Eating" his corpse is the most honorable thing it could've done. Taking the bodies of brave warriors it what it means to be a warrior jar.
What offensive ash of war do you guys use on rl1?
>>489878895What the fuck are you even referring to?
>>489859872I’m pretty sure that at that point, Morgott hadn’t put up his yellow force field grace-barrier blocking off the Mountain tops. He never expected anyone to go that way until Vyke and Bernahl traveled up there before turning around.
What Lawsuit? Over what
>>489877905proof ityour name reminds me of an obsessive stalker that would show up to conventions to meet a fandom famous no-name musician and she would always make everyone uncomfortable
Marika’s and her entire tribe were taken as slaves, and “one day we will return to our home bathed in rays of gold” or etc is referencing her/their time in enslavement, and the “grandmother” is the statue at the tree in the Shaman village, not Grandam.Marika was the only one to have made it back to her village. She was the last.

Now that the dust has settled what are the actual implications behind the placement for Mike and Trina lillies?Was it a place of worship for them? Or places that once felt their physical presence?
>>489878991I'd place it here on the fromsoft scale:ds2 < Elden Ring < ds1 < ds3 < Sekiro.The grand scale of it, the beauty of the world, the open world style. All of it wears on you really hard after the first playthrough or two. After that it's just a chore because you have to go wandering around doing all sorts of copypasted bosses just to get a high enough level to do well on the lategame boss rush. I like some of the new additions to combat like guard counters. Jumping, however, is a mixed bag. Most of the jumpable attacks do not appear jumpable, like Godrick's flame spray. The flame effect goes above your head, you'd never expect to be able to jump that. The new style of boss design has so many problems. I loathe the lategame bosses now. It takes several sessions for me to stand doing them. They're hyper aggressive, which would make sense if you're supposed to be hyper aggressive back, but they have many moves which put them out of harms way when you try to punish (maliketh's leaps and malenia's dodging slice, for example) or sometimes punish you for trying to punish. That sometimes is key. The bosses feel less predictable. They'll extend their combos depending on circumstances, sometimes by what appears to be random chance, to punish you for trying to punish. It's annoying, even when you realize some of them are positioning base. Enemies have too much health and do too much damage towards the later half of the game. The draconic tree sentinel outside Maliketh's room is a great example of that. Does insane damage and has high health so you have to spend 10 minutes poking him down, then having to reset if you make a bad mistake. Tedious.That's all I can think of off the top of my head. I no longer trust Fromsoft's design. I'll take a long time before I try their next game to see how people like it.
>>489879601proof?
>>489879506proof itCan't link to the twitch stream on 4chan. I'll let you know if it gets uploaded to youtube
>>489879601Yes. She never returned to her village.
>>489878476Maybe for you. Jumping is obvious if you actually git gud and learned the boss.
>>489877905You could be making so much money off this if you weren't a retard schizophrenic
its dark souls 2 2 2 if you think about it really
>limgrave is filled with mushrooms so you can craft pots easily>this, of course, makes sense since it's the early game and they want people to interact with the crafting system>fast forward 2 years later>they do the same in the DLC with random shit, except people know how to play the game and it's late gamedid they learn anything in those two years?
>>489879506>>489879796https://www.twitch.tv/videos/2221613146Here's the interview
the world is in your hands
>>489862360>>489862507I understand that it’s what she wants, but we are part of this as well, and it’s equally wrong of her to damage our autonomy by forcing us to live with the guilt of killing her, even if she wants to die.If someone is going to commit suicide, then it’s pretty fucked up if they try to force someone else to be involved when they can just do it themselves.She can go fuck herself for trying to put blood on our hands regardless of how we feel.
>>489874591>light roll in both clips Neither of them beat the boss.
>>489880221she's not the one putting blood on your handsit's all the other people gaslighting you into believing you killed her
What’s with all the sand spouts in Enir Ilim? Do they not know that sand is heavy as duck and piles up fast? God these city planners were stupid. Hornsent are low iq niggers. What can you even expect from a people that turned their own sorceries into incantations.The place is literally a Raya Lucarian’s worst nightmare.
>>489879425I will save Mohg.Total Mike death
>>489880221She puts you to sleep specifically so that you didn't have to witness her death. All you did was bring her to the top of a building. She's the one that actually decided to jump off.
>>489880661But it's taller, grander, and older? Doesn't this imply the Hornsent are gods?
>>489880525So many of that girl who really likes Maliketh..
>>489878476The issue is that Elden Ring is a boss rush game buried under a really shitty half-assed adventure RPG. Ignore presentation/narrative/etc. Purely from a gameplay perspective: would there be ANYTHING legitimately good about ER if you removed all bossfights? Is there anything in the game you actually have to fight that isn't a boss? If there isn't, then it's just flavor, set dressing. Mechanically inconsequential. Those RPG elements like character building, stats, gear? No point to them.
>>489880067shoutouts to the guy interviewing you for giving you a fair and honest shot despite your admittedly incomprehensible logic and assumptions
>>489880998Unfortunately true
>>489880840No? Rauh would be older. Hornsent are a bunch of retards worshiping horn cancer. That one item even says they consider a baby born with horns to be “blessed” but those same babies DIE early. Amazing. Hornsent are so scared of fire giants for some reason, and we know Raya Lucaria goes all the way back to the mountaintop with the ancient astrologers—or at least it’s founder: Azur/Karolos.
>>489880845Poor Mohg. At least he got to rail Miquella a bunch of times before we kill him.
>see item>pick up item >it’s another pickled liver >see item>pick up item >it’s another pickled liver >see item>pick up item >it’s another pickled liver >see item>pick up item >it’s another pickled liver
What if Mohg was never gay either. And he got charmed into being gay like Radahn
>>489880840>taller, grander, and olderAn endless supply of low iq idiotic zealots willing to build shit even if it will kill them will do that
>go through entire dungeon, die 2 times, kill the boss with one flask left>loot is a literal who weapon that doesn't fit my build at all that only sells to the vendor for 100 runes.
WHY DOES IGON'S ARMOR HAVE SO MANY FUCKING GLOVES
>>489881389I feel like Miquella is androgynous enough that no one really cares in the Lands Between. Not even mentioning St. Trina's whole deal.
You guys have any dank group passwords?>ergself explanitory >straydmnleddit pw, more pve messages and constant lord buff>NIGGERactually see a surprising amount of messages under this tag
>>489881389>what if none of the characters were actual characters and just miquella
SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
>>489881389Items imply he always had a thing for Miquella. Miquella just didn’t feel like entertaining him until he thought he was useful.
>>489881785This is why mindcontrol is dumb storywise.
>>489881365yooo this gameplay is fire>>489881750i only have erg on
Hornsent knew how to cultivate trees off spirit/life energy better than Marika did, and that’s why she had Messmer collect all the Rauh/Hornsent tablets. It’s why Marika had all of them in her bedroom.She KNEW she fucked up by just taking something she didn’t fully understand lol. She was desperately trying to research it, how to circumvent it all. It’s why Golden Order Fundamentalism even started.
>>489881365>>489882153My favorite is 10x standard arrow in Belurat. Feels like an intentional joke.
>>489882309right next to the two enemies who rape you if you stand still for half a second?
In terms of royal capitals / former capitalsFarum Azula > Enir Ilim > Ashen Capital
>>489880352She is though. She wants you to help her get to the giants forge so that she can jump in. That’s like someone asking you to buy a gun for them so that they can shoot themself.>>489880751That’s literally assisted suicide. She needs the player in order to travel around, remember?Also, completely separate, is that if you both are so adamant about saying that her death doesn’t have anything to do with us, then that’s a two-way street, so why does grabbing the Frenzy Flame have anything to do with her? What if I want to inherit it just so that I can go to Farum Azula in order to purge it? The world is now a safer place because it means that no one else can find the three fingers and get possessed by them. Who the fuck does she think she is to tell me no if “autonomy” is her biggest concern?
>>489882257Too bad they still lost 'lol'
>>489881823>the two enemies who rape youL-location? Just so I know where to avoid next time, haha...
>>489880998>Purely from a gameplay perspective: would there be ANYTHING legitimately good about ER if you removed all bossfights?I'd probably like it MORE without the boss fights. I despise the tedious trial-and-error combat format where you get thrown up against a being with several times more hp and damage than you and you just have to scramble to survive until you learn their moveset and then never get hit again. It's like learning dance choreography, or how to beat an MMO raid boss.What I LOVE is getting to each new area and scouting it out and thoughtfully adjusting my equipment and skills, trying new tactics to clear each area, beating every enemy, finding every hidden treasure, uncovering every bit of lore, etc.I view each area as a puzzle to solve in which you have until you're out of health to 100% the area. You have a hard limit in that if you die you restart, and a soft limit in that you only have so many health flasks to keep you going. You can mitigate that with healing and fp talismans and skills, though. My current best clear is I 100%'d all of Shadow Keep other than Messmer himself the first time I went, including the two Ulcerated Tree Spirits, without resting at a site of grace. I ended up relying on Blasphemous Blade + Taker's Cameo for hp regen after running out of health flasks, and Sacrificial Axe off-hand + Ancestral Spirit's Horn for fp regen so I could periodically cast Erdtree's Blessing on myself to top my hp off again because Blasphemous Blade + Taker's Cameo couldn't keep up with the damage.What I want from the boss fights are more hard-counters that you can figure out while clearing up to the boss, and less spam from bosses to allow for more intelligent gameplay. Less emphasis on reaction time and more on outsmarting the boss.
>>489880845Tha was the Mohgwyn dynasty of Mohg's dreams.
>>489882651dumb coomer
>>489882446In the side plaza where you get invaded.
>>489882502Of course they did. Marika seduced their king or something and stole his thang.
Were the Hornsent aligned politically with the ancient dragons? Doesn’t Placidusax have crucible horns?
You mean to tell me I've ridden by this island 100+ times since the game first released and never noticed there was a fucking Crystal Tear on it?
>>489879876>You could be making so much money off this if you weren't a retard schizophrenicWhat are you suggesting, paid interviews? I don't do that. Nothing's stopping you from filing your own lawsuit.

Where's the tower that shows you can summon in the Gatefront Ruins, right after Kale?
>>489882783Just say you want gimmick bosses, bed of chaos enjoyer.
So why didn't the all powerful Ranni protect Iji or Blaidd? She didn't even care to tell them she loved them or care that they died. That's right, she killed Iji and Blaidd, whether directly or indirectly, it doesn't matter.
>>489883746No.
Why are there stone people hanging off the edges of the Enir Ilim pillars? Are they petrified people, or is it merely artistic design?
>>489884105Different anon but I maintain that Jori and Lamenter are the only standout bosses in the DLC. Lamenter should've had even more gimmicks, Jori is just a fun chaotic crowd fight.
>>489884262headcanon it
>>489884213Because they’re all retarded. Blaidd was never going to turn against Ranni, his iq was simply taken away by the Fingers.Just like the Beastmen, who are in the process of losing their intelligence. They gained it, and then they lost it. Kind of like how humans are de-evolving into Demi-humans. Evolution is a theme in this game.
>>489884213She's a selfish cunt and writer's pet what did you expect?
>>489884213she protected them as well as she could, by taking the blame for everything so that only she would be prosecuted by the black knife assassins and not themwell, turns out the two fingers and the entire political apparatus is much more powerful than her and could easily track her down and kill all her companionsespecially considering blaidd was a plant from the very beginning
>>489877743Now do it with a colossal weapon.
Now that the dust has settled, how do we feel about the new weapon types added in SOTE?
What quests do I need to finish before killing radahn or going to the atlus plateau?
>>489883520I JUST DID. I've visited Iji dozens of times and never dropped down here.Apparently I just didn't play Liurnia. Which is nuts because I clearly remember spending an obscene amount of time exploring here. I remember spending hours riding along the cliffs looking for caves and finding the back way to Altus. I remember spending forever trying to figure out the upside-down academy without knowing you need an item from a questline to clear it. I remember spending forever trying to find my way up to the plateau Manus Celes is on.I think the issue was I spent so much time on the perimeter of the zone because the big lake makes Raya Lucaria such a focal point that I didn't even think to explore much of the lake itself or the stuff on its shoreline. I just circled the lake and missed a bunch of stuff that was within 30 yards of the shore.
How is Maliketh Marika’s half brother! Was she raped by dogs/beastmen? Did the Hornsent offer her pussy to Placi?
>>489884612just make sure to buy prawn from boggart and finding diallos in liurnia, every other quest just skips
I think something's wrong with this dog
>>489884793We are never given a proper explanation afaik. Maybe for empyreans their shadows are considered half-brothers?
>>489884527there's barely any weapons in each new category. why even make "throwing blades" and several ashes that can only be put on "throwing blades" if there's only fucking one. perfumes are the only new weapon type with enough weapons and it could still use more.
>>489884793>>489884996The shadows aren’t literal artificial creations lol. They’re just beastmen given to empyreans.
>>489884793He was gifted to her to basically serve as her bodyguard. He and Blaidd are shadows attached to their respective empyrean. It's a thing the Two Fingers do.
>>489885102Ok but why call them half-brothers then?
what happened to malenia's and miquella's shadows
>hur dur shadows are two fingers’ creationsRetards. He’s a beastman cleric. All of his incantations are beastman incantations.
>>489884458Were demihumans ever explained? so it goes beast to beastman to demihuman to human?>>489884509I don't see the BKA working with the fingers since they were chased out and their leader imprisoned in Ranni's area.
>>489885332My headcanon is that only Empyreans next in line for the throne got shadows and Ranni was born first so she was next.
>>489885265Because Numen and Beastmen are their own separate races, and she probably married into his family or something. The Hornsent were probably aligned with the ancient dragons / Placidusax. You even see a statue of a woman in Farum, who is surrounded by three wolves.
>>489884793Yeah that half bother line is pretty weird. Blaidd is never referred to as Ranni's brother, right? >Was she raped by dogs/beastmen?I don't see how having a wolfman brother means that she got knotted by a different beastman, hot as it may be.
>>489884105They're all gimmick bosses. It's just that most of them have the same gimmick: Dodge or block for 90% of the fight, then poke them a few times during their brief openings. Repeat until dead. The only bosses in the DLC that took me more than 1or 2 tries to beat were Midra and Radahn. Midra took 6 tries. Radahn took 8. They were much less fun than the areas leading up to them.
>>489884793the half brother thing doesnt mean there is a literal blood relation, the japanese is more clear about this, referring to them as "sworn brothers" instead.>>489885332Malenia acts as Miquella's shadow essentially, so i guess the fingers just didnt bother
>>489883208I'm talking about the amount of publicity and views your public austism sperg-out is emassing
>>489884793Are you under the impression that women give birth to their brothers?
>>489885921Maliketh is either part man or Marika is part dog.
For an arcane build, what should my secondary damage stat be?
>>489885921Depending on the circumstances they might.
>>489884327>unironic Jori defenderHoly shit fucking die you double nigger
>>489885843Well, I encourage others to file their own lawsuit on their dream game. Square Enix and Final Fantasy 14 are easy targets since you have to pay money every month just to play FF14. Why are you paying money every month for a game you can't access?
>>489885596That women could honestly be anyone at this point. Almost every culture in the game worships or respects some female figure or has a female in power. Elden Ring's world is unironically a matriarchy.
>>489884327Jori was a nice little wizard fight, but I’m still mad Ymir wasn’t a bigger boss.
>>489886214>Elden Ring's world is unironically a matriarchy.Gurl Boss GameWomen have more concentrated muscle mass and have higher peak intelligence.Had this game been made in the west, people would have declared it “woke”.
>>489884327Who the fuck is the lamenter? Did I miss a unique boss or something?
>>489886441And yet the hardest boss is 2 gay dudes. Women just can't stop losing.
>>489886053You’re why we don’t have cool wizard bosses. You complain too much. “Waah he’s summoning, waah he’s teleporting”.
>>489886441We need that Gen Z Boss and a Mini video edited with Elden Ring characters
>>489886441>>Elden Ring's world is unironically a matriarchy.Because it's a world where the men have all died in the endless wars.War is dysgenic. It kills the best and leaves only the rats, cowards, and weaklings behind to run things and reproduce.
>>489886635Its a dogshit fight and wizard fights are always dogshit, there has never been a good wizard boss. Gimmicktroons are fucked in the head.
>>489886717you do realize that women have also fought in this wars right?
>>489883640I always kill that stupid dog.
The most kino thing about Elden Ring is that you're just a faceless nobody who can't even hold his sword or wear his armor properly, yet your killing DBZ characters with wombo combos and continent nuking spells.
>>489877905I-Is that c-cut content? AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE I'M GOING INSANE LAYERMAN SAVE MEEEE!!!!
>sword of light/darknessRedpill me on it
>>489886857Yeah? Do you know what a binary fallacy is?
>>489886441Elden Ring's "matriarchy" is actually really cleverly done because while the women are at the forefront of everything and getting all the praise and power, the men are the ones actually getting shit done. It's a matriarchy in the sense that the women get to play dress up and pretend while the men continue to actually rule in the background.
Did Mohg's cult turn super evil after being brainwashed or was it always that way? Asking because Ansbach seems really clear headed
>>489885332Aren't empyreans chosen by the fingers the only ones who get shadows? Malenia and Miquella were chosen by the rot god, so they get nothing.
>>489887318….you DO realize all the moments of male badassery are topped by women, right? Be it physically or intellectually. Women just have more potential than the men, lol. A woman 1/10 the size of Radahn could match him, and no male has ever made it over 60 intelligence.
>>489886717Why does a god need a consort or to reproduce?
>>489875514I usually just let it blender me and die fuck this game man
>>489887486>no male has ever made it over 60 intelligence.And this is why I hate the moon spells
>>489887486Nah godfrey clears, wahmen cant do anything right and fucked everything up. And that 60 int sure did rennala good after she went insane from getting cucked lmfao
>>489887486Azur and Lusat have the highest int in the game
>>489887486YOU again? There is no evidence to say that women are superior to men in magic.
>>489878837So another spiral tree that failed, like the Haligtree? Why does Miq in particular take after the spiral symbology and culture? >The EternalWho? Another word for Numen or what?
>>489887994Nope. Moons cost 67/70/72 int. Primeval spells cost 43/52/60.Gurl Boss Gaem, remember? Practically all the men are catered to fujoshis, too.
>>489888020>YOU again? There is no evidence to say that women are superior to men in magic.Assuming the biology is the same as in the real world, women would be superior Glintstone Sorcerers if only because men take more risks and that means more top male sorcerers would risk looking at eternity and turn into Graven Masses or crystallize themselves like Lusat and Azur did. Sellen does this too, but she's also a noted outcast.As for other sorceries and incantations? I dunno.
>>489888215messmer is catered towards incels, godfrey and radahn are catered towards normie dudebros, radagon is catered towards trannies (will never be women), idk I guess you fujos can have corhyn and thiollier lmfao
>>489888183The Numen were “scions”/royalty of the Eternal Cities. They’re of “same stock” as Marika, who was a shaman. This connect is hard to pinpoint, but it’s there, word for word. Hmm.
god I wish there were more throwing knife class weapons. imagine boomerangs, poison darts, shuriken?
>>489888382messmer is fujobait dude, what are you talking about
>>489888516nah messmer is our incel king, fujos could never understand him like we do
>>489885265Reddit says the Japanese text says "adoptive brother" and that the translation is wrong. I'm name-dropping Reddit here because I know that nobody itt can read Japanese to confirm it themselves
>>489888382Radahn is for trannies
>>489888634radahn is for normie dudebros and gay men, miquella is for trannies
>>489888183Miquella's whole thing even in the base game was going back to the crucible way of thinking and accepting everything no matter what. Unalloyed Gold is literally gold before it has been refined and had its impurities taken out. The gold we see in Enir Lim is probably actually unalloyed gold and Miq was just copying them.
>>489888582Fujos don't understand that Messmer is actually a gentle soul who hates what he's doing?
>muh trannies>muh fujos>muh incels>muh normiesshut the fuck up
>>489888868No they don't understand that genociding the hornsent was based and that he will never fuck them.
>>489888183The spiral is said to be a “normalized crucible current”, so presumably this is meaning Marika got selective with her tree, and the Erdtree isn’t actually the normal or “correct” tree. She shuns the omen and the misbegotten and considers contact with the crucible (contact with the crucible apparently means dying to some crucible afflicted being, being eaten by it, etc, because then you’re brought back at the roots of the Erdtree as tainted) to be a horrible thing. She’s a conditional cunt, however, and her rule was one of diluted and discriminate life/death—only the truly privileged could live forever, and if your time came, you were called to the Erdtree to die, as fuel for it. Marika promises life, in the form of longevity and resurrection, but she’s highly conditional about it.
>>489884327Jori was cool, but Lamenter was shit.
>>489888878You people make every gaming community you're in worseEveryone has to raise their degeneracy level just to drown you out
>>489878837What if the Hornsent grew their spiral tree, hoping to reach heaven, like the incantation says, but instead they just broadcast themselves to the cosmos and invited all of the Outer Gods to show up, including the Greater Will, who used the Elden Beast and Scadutree to invade, landed in the nearby Shaman village, took a young Shaman girl as a host, and Marika proceeded to take over the world on behalf of the Greater Will?She/It removed the Shadow Lands from the rest of the Lands Between to create an air lock that prevents anyone coming through the way the Greater Will did from repeating its invasion, and to keep residents of the Lands Between, including many devotees to Outer Gods, from going to the Shadow Lands and messing with anything, like opening up a new path with the Scadutree to let the Formless Mother or some other being invade.
>>489887409it was always a tarnished hunting death cult, as the spilled blood's purpose is to feed the formless mother and not Miquella as some people often make the mistake, however Mohg is implied to be a charismatic leader and he is equally implied to let powerful warriors fuck him in exchange for loyalty as with Okina and presumably also Ansbach
>>489888365But that’s just like real life, and more men are known for their risks, and successes. Most geniuses have been men, by far.Men are the ones who DO shit in real life. Not women. Women are outliers. They’re standing out more when they succeed.
Why are we incelposting in here?
>>489888949Do we really have to kill ALL the Hornsent? What if there are good Hornsent out there?
>>489889187I suppose some of them can be relocated to the badlands.
>>489889187Total extinction.
>>489889091Hornsent were servants of the greater will, just in a different form. That's the underlying theme of the setting. The cycles of power. The fundamental flaw in the Greater Will's order is that the puppet kingdoms it puts in place decay and collapse because of the flaws of its leaders, who are 'more man than god'. It happened with the dragons, it happened with the hornsent, it happened with the golden order. The new age we install as the Tarnished will one day collapse too, this is the cycle of order.
What do you think about>SIZE DIFFERENCE
>>489889187>What if there are good Hornsent out there?Fuck off and get cleaved by Godfrey and Messmer.>>489889521S E X O
>>489889091>but instead they just broadcast themselves to the cosmos and invited all of the Outer Gods to show upThis already happened in the form of the divine towers, which were originally going to be beacons for Astels to come soaring down as random world bosses. It was cut however. The divine towers are also filled with meteorites in their architecture. They are also in a perfect hexagon, although it seems their heights are still different.The Nox also called down aliens/Astels a while back by using Eternal Darkness far too much. Someone was even locked up in a tower for it—which is where you find it. >the Greater Will Is just referring to deep space, as well as the implied grand intellect behind it, some sort of being that may or may not exist. It is irrelevant, since it may not be aware of us, even. Who knows what Metyr is really “communing” with.
how much poise do you guys have on your meta level 166 havel mages?
>>489889434"cycles of x" is one of miyazaki's favourite things to dopretty much every souls has an element of "this has happened before and will probably happen again"
>>489889187What part of total hornsent death do you not understand?
>>489889521I would love to be manhandled by those two
>>489889119You got it backwards: https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=perception+of+agency+in+men+and+womenPer virtually every study on the topic, people think men have more agency than they do and that women have less.So when men succeed they get more credit, and when they fail they get more blame.Inversely, when women succeed they get less credit, and when they fail they get less blame. And this can occur through tons of mental gymnastics. For example, people will scoff at Malenia beating Radahn and say the Scarlet Rot carried her and that she's no match for him without the Scarlet Aeonia, but when Godfrey conquered the Lands Between for Marika using the Grace of Gold, he gets FULL credit for it, even though without the blessing of Marika he was just a thug living in the Badlands.
>>489889521The fact that Rennala is significantly taller than Marika is what racks my brain
>>489890091why are you theorycrafting
>>489890091that's probably because women are stupid and can't help themselves
>>489890091>Radahn spends every single second of his life spamming purple magic.>Yet somehow it's unfair for Malenia to cast a single incantation.
>>489890091godfrey has no powers at all.he's just a strength build.
>>489872131those numbers include seamless players and people who aren't open to invasions
>>489890091But we perceive Miquella as having zero agency.
>>489889521what do you call the pose the tarnished is in?
>>489889521Hottest thing imaginable. I don't know why ER porn doesn't take advantage of it more.https://files.catbox.moe/6yqirr.mp4https://files.catbox.moe/q0v9ch.mp4Maybe they lack imagination.>>489890075Manhandled like https://files.catbox.moe/q0v9ch.mp4 ?
>>489889091Is it just me or is the Greater Will implied to be an actual entity, just something that is merely a belief?
>>489891050Noooo you're not allowed to goon to these characters elden goy is a girlboss game nooooooooo
>>489888215This is a disingenuous argument since Comet Azur takes up 3 slots and we’ve seen that 3 slots can bridge gaps. Placi could match Bayle and Malenia took out Radahn, and both use 3 slot powers. Azur (and Lusat) also did more with their magic, since primeval spells are actually, y’know, FOUNDATIONAL, while the shiny moon is just… shiny… and speshul…Rennala did not make small and smaller versions of her moon sorcery. The spells of the Olivinus and Karolos conspectuses are small and smaller versions of the real primeval deals, lol. They all share colours (turquoise and deep blue) and it’s a likely possibility that Azur is responsible for the turquoise (blue-green) singular projectile sorceries, all the way down to Glintstone Pebble, which is more or less just a baby or juvenile comet. You may also have noticed that Olivinus sorceries double in number each time, or halve, in reverse. Three to six to twelve.The Lazuli conspectus is only a thing due to moon reverence being seen as a once heretical view. It is a new take, and spells of Carian lineage aren’t really moons of a smaller and smaller size. ( I like to think Carian sorceries orbit the caster the same way the moons orbit the Lands, and perhaps this is what inspired them and their creation. I could also just be looking too deeply into things. )
>>489886024Dex for status buildupStr for raw damageFaith for long range and spellsInt if you want to cripple yourself.
>>489891107the greater will IS an actual entity yes
>>489890091It’s not backwards. 97% of all scientific accomplishments since the renaissance have been conducted by white people, and 99% of them were MEN. Globally.
Strength weapons like the starscourge great swords having an INT requirement is as offensive as being forced to dip your dick into a Thai tranny for 5 seconds before using dick on your gf for 36 seconds.
>>489891370I mean, not be an actual entity, just a cope sincerely believed in by Metyr and the Elden Beast
how to fix gravitational missile: make its damage dependent on how many times it pulses before detonating>no pulse: 50% damage>1 pulse: 75% damage>2/3 pulses: 100% damagedon't actually touch its base damage though
>>489891050Absolutely
>>489891370>>489891528It’s literally irrelevant if the Greater Will is an aware (of us) entity or not. Christ, this is something irl physicists talk of; the idea that existence may just be a part of some larger than life organism, or ‘life’, the same way there’s life on a micro and macro scale, within our own bodies.Worlds within worlds. The microcosm is a play at that. Ever hear the (Lovecraftian) phrase “blind idiot god”? Something can be so large or so grand that it’s quite ignorant of its own doings and influences, or just what’s truly all around them.
>>489891050That Tarnished clearly underleveled his VIG and STR.
>>489889113>as the spilled blood's purpose is to feed the formless mother and not MiquellaIs it though? The lord of blood's exhaultation talisman says otherwise
>>489892210Does leveling up canonically make you bigger like it does in Dark Souls?
> The spells of the Olivinus and Karolos conspectuses are small and smaller versions of the real primeval deals, lol. They all share colours (turquoise and deep blue) and it’s a likely possibility that Azur is responsible for the turquoise (blue-green) singular projectile sorceries, all the way down to Glintstone Pebble, which is more or less just a baby or juvenile comet. I never noticed this until nowAre all spells comets on some level?
>>489892210From the blindfold, he's a FTH caster, so skimped on STR/END/VIG.>>489892310Runes probably do.
The DLC is really the more relevant plot in the game world.The main game's plot about becoming Elden Lord is some ancient legend most people have forgotten about or think isn't even real.The current state of affairs of the major demigods at the time the game starts is much more related to the DLCs plot.Mogh repeats "Miquella is mine and mine alone"Malenia is the blade of Miquella and is in his HaligtreeRadahn was insane due to Malenia attacking him, as part of Miquella's plotThe most recent event regarding Godwyn was his attempted revival by MiquellaRykard and Godrick are doing their own thing.Ranni kind of cares but is mostly trying to accomplish her own goals. Morgott really seems to be the only demigod who still gives a shit about the whole Marika/Elden Lord plotline.Do most of the demigods even know you're trying to become Elden Lord?
>>489892062I think it matters if the Greater Will is a sentient entity with designs for every world under its control. I saw the field of Erdtrees in the Elden Beast fight and the way the Two Fingers in the Round Table Hold "communed" with it and immediately imagined that it was a conscious entity watching over an empire of connected worlds, all networked together using Erdtrees and Two Fingers.>>489891460https://scholar.google.com/scholar?&q=cognitive+dissonance+and+reinforcementYou didn't respond to what was said. You dismissed it then repeated your established core belief to yourself to reinforce it. Literally, you coped.
>>489891258mini moon sorceries would be funny as fuck, imagine crystal torrent except instead of crystals it shoots out a stream of tiny moons
>>489892434Yes, and all death sorceries are ashes.
Miquella is meant for the Tarnished. They're the only ones who are the same size and share a fate of being manlets. This is why Miquella loves the Tarnished, not only does he understand what it's like to be a manlet he's also strong and handsome.Also I heard Miazaki is adding all the stuff that didn't get into elden ring into his next jrpg games, so how much BL are we getting with a suspiciously look alike blonde boy?
>>489892449Melina turning your runes into strength certainly takes a strange turn now
>>489892558>You didn't respond to what was said. You dismissed it then repeated your established core belief to yourself to reinforce it. Literally, you coped>Literally, you copedLolok
>>489892505>Do most of the demigods even know you're trying to become Elden Lord?Yeah. That's why their Lordsworn attack you. And even if you weren't after their great rune, you're still a tarnished, which means that most people are going to assume you're there to kill and take their grace/runes, which is why everyone is freaking out and attacking you. Tarnished have a very bad reputation in the Lands Between.
>>489892991I remember how the wiki prior to the DLC implied that Miquella would eventually be the Tarnished's Consort after traveling through the Land of Shadow.
>>489892310Where does Dark Souls lore say leveling up makes you bigger?
>>489892558The Two Fingers aren’t communing with the Greater Will. They’re communing with their Mother, who in turn CLAIMS she is communing with the Greater Will, but it is likely she isn’t, and never was. She’s as blind and desperate as anyone else. She likely thinks highly of herself because she is the first star to hit the Lands. She likely cannot conceive of being wrong, as she is the single oldest thing around. It is also possible that she isn’t even intelligent or conscious the same way we are, which is already implied regarding other inhuman lifeforms, like the Crystallians, Astels, etc.
>>489893090
>>489889521I'm a mommy and ginatess fag so it's pretty obvious what I think.
Azur and Lusat don’t even know who Rennala is. They’ve been rocks (astrally projecting into space) for a long fucking time. Look at their fucking robes. Sellen implies they were relocated like artifacts, not people.
>>489893729i dont know what you dumb fags are talking about but you cannot change an axis on a graph to be exponential and then claim a curve is linear wtf is this gay shit talking about
>>489893450>Titanite scale: In rare cases, Crystal Lizards devour souls, growing to monstrous proportion and leaving these great scales
>>489893965Someone told him women aren’t as smart irl as they are in video games, and this is upsetting him I think.
I’d like to know what Azur and Lusat’s staves looked like before they got ruined/broken by crystallized space cum
I wish girls were real
>>489893965you can use log10 to scale data when you plot with ggplot2, I did it myself in the papers I contributed to at the ivy league universities. Everyone said "thanks for that because the data meant absolutely nothing before".
>>489893481So when Enia says it'll take centuries or millennia or whatever for the Two Fingers to commune with the Greater Will, it's not actually sending a message across the stars that's going to have to cross lightyears? It's sending a message to Metyr who is then lying to her children and claiming she is communing with the Greater Will and just keeps telling them, "Hold on a little bit longer" for centuries?>>489893090It turns out that you have to consider temporal context when doing this kind of analysis. You can't just pretend that all other factors were equal the entire time. Hey, thousands of people born the same year as you are millionaires now. You're not, so you must be a total failure, right? Who cares if they were born to rich families or sent to nicer schools or given mid-level jobs right out of college because daddy asked a friend for a favor? You apparently don't think this context is important at all.
God i feel like a complete asshole for using all this shit on low levels but then another phantom dies and drops 10-300k runes and i just want to bully them even harder
>>489861726Elaborate on what you mean by that
i might be retarded and i definitely didn't beat the gamei jump attacked with double colossal swords and just traded radahn to deathi legitimately had no clue the cross slash was a bs move because it didn't even register to me what was going on, i just tanked anything i couldn't sight roll
>>489894768Yep. Metyr is old as fuck and can wait as long as she wants.Read again her Remembrance. First star, period.
>>489865656Hornsent are Chinese. They use Chinese dao swords, wear Chinese-looking armors and have a bossfight based on a Chinese cultural performance. The jarring is also a reference to the Chinese historically being major practitioners of cannibalism, torture and human sacrifice, something which has persisted almost to the modern day. This is why the Hornsent are being genocided.
Why would I ever betray Millicent after helping her? I don't mean 'you get a reward', why would my tarnished do that?
>>489895676they also poo poo their pants because that is very deep and sophisticated poltiical criticism
>>489895676>Pagan Chinese RetardsGod I hate them even more now
>>489895289You didn't compromise your values. You unga'd your way through the game, and you bunga'd Radahn to death. You beat the game.
>>489895676based, chinese disrespect for the sanctity of life deserves ten billion gallons of my spit directly into their orifices all, verification not required
>>489895676so their scorpion stew is just another one of those chinese bat soups or some shit? Guess that explains it along with their cruelty
>>489880067You sound like a Latinxa goblinoid with brain damage causing zhim to be unable to pronounce words without slurring.
>>489895289if you mean you didn't learn how to dodge all his attacks, and didn't dodge them consistently enough to earn your hits and victory then yes, you didn't beat the game
>>489895676Why are they like this
did fatman shart out the lore for the DLC too, or just the base game? honestly i think the DLC lore is a bit more interesting than the base game and adds a lot to it
I don't think I'll ever beat the game. I put my stats from levelling in the wrong spots, and I wasted my smithing stones upgrading the wrong weapons.
>>489895676they're not based on one specific culture exclusively, but they do draw some chinese influences
>>489893341>You will never hug Miquella.>You will never see his tears of joy from having some normal human contact.>You will never hear him vent about family making fun of his height.>You will never make love with MiquellaMiazaki why have you forsaken us? Atleast make your JRPG a game worthy for us degenerates.and please release all your lewd animations, we all know you have them even disney had them.
>>489896152Why? Bugs. They are bugs. Soulless bug men. Not the good kind of insectoids like our Japanese friends. What is a soul for that matter? The consciousness I reckon, sure, but the conscience too, I think.
>>489896152I mean if you lost 60k soldiers to an army of 10k you'd be thirsty for vengeance too
>>489895676>The jarring is also a reference to the Chinese historically being major practitioners of cannibalism, torture and human sacrifice,Wait, what? I thought the jarring was reference to the gu ritual >>489893729

>>489895573I'd be curious to see a certified translation of the Japanese, because "receiving signs" is far more vague than "receiving signals" or "communicating" with something, in English.Likewise, the part about "from the beyond of the microcosm", in English, implies the Greater Will is either the void of the microcosm or its shell, but the language is clumsy and if the original Japanese says "beyond the microcosm", that's a bigger deal. That's something beyond the boundaries of the cosmos and all known reality.It could also arguably be beyond all knowable reality. Metyr could be doing the equivalent of staring at the cosmic microwave background radiation and trying to find signs from the Greater Will embedded in it, because that's hypothesized irl to be one of the few places we could detect outside influence on our universe.
Hornsent are all fugly and deformed, Chinese are all fugly deformed bugmen. Hornsent spiral represents their culture going in circles without progress until Marika(a white person) arrived. Just like first contact between the West and China was characterized by the Chinese being narcissistic freaks, the Hornsent needed to be taught their place by Golden Order military and cultural superiority. If you think about it the Hornsents seething ever since is identical to the Chinese obsession with the Century of Humiliation. The only Hornsent character we meet is a traitor who backstabs us immediately when he thinks our utility for him has run out, another Chinese cultural trait that you see replicated everywhere in the business world.With all this in mind, it's obvious why Messmer, despite being an enemy, is one of the most sympathetic characters and custom-built to appeal to 51% of the human population at minimum as well. If Messmer's Crusade's explicit goal is to slaughter Chinese, and we're given no satisfying reason to fight him, then the implied message for the audience is, "why?" Why did we have to interfere? We could have simply watched and cheered while the Chinese were exterminated but we just had to intervene before WW2. If we had let the Japanese cleanse Asia of the Hornsent, the world would be a better place.
>Random anti-chinese schizo shitWell that wasn't on my bingo card for today.
>>489868091The biggest hack job is no wearable flaming frenzy head like the ending cutscene. Like it just makes sense.
>>489897705Oh, and what was "broken and abandoned" in the original context?The staff?Metyr?The cosmos itself?The Greater Will?In English it seems like the text is almost certainly talking about Metyr herself, but Japanese has some weird grammar rules with regard to when you explicitly refer to something and when it can be inferred.
Hornsent sounds like hornet Truly they are like insects
>>489897796>Messmer was born of Marika and carried on Marika's legacy in the Shadow Lands>Modern Japanese civilization was born of Western influences and carried on its legacy of slaughtering chinksectsI can't wait for those dumb fucks to finally invade Taiwan so we can watch the Three Gorges Dam get snapped like a twig
Is there a way to get Rakshasa before breaking the rune?

>>489898353No but why does it matter? Just get the date rape juice from Thiollier. That's the only thing breaking the rune locks you out of.
>>489897796>>489898256In other words, Total Hornsent Death is Total Chink Death. I like the sound of that.
>>489898532I thought you also got fucked from annoying quest
Why do these characters, especially the women, have such bad head proportions? The neck is far too thick for the head. For instance, here's a hackjob of what Leda looks like with her head size increased by 25%. I think she actually looks pretty cute when you can secernate the jawline from the neck.
>>489898691From's character creator is just fucked with necks. Making appealing necks has been the bane of every waifufag's existence for years.
>>489897069BASED
>>489898456>>489898496Thanks.
>>489898691That is a surprising amount of difference just from a small tweak. I'd waifu Leda hard if she actually looked like the left in game.
>>489898660What?
>Get the FKGS>Its awesome>Slap flame skewer on it>its a bit underwhelming but fire swords is my jam>Find flame spear>Super excited to try it out, a ranged option would be great>The damage is dog shit, even fully charged and its slow>Super disappointed>Figure out the range is a bonus, I'm supposed to stab people with it>Its basically a chargeable impaling thrust on a colossal sword>Even uncharged it hits pretty hardAh, it wasn't bad.

>>489901296Arthur Pendragon wasn't no skinny skank.>>489901323Go to bing (not google, it sucks for this) and search "woman olympian <country> <event>" and look. Leda is a very Scandinavian sounding name and she's pale and blonde, so try searching>woman olympian swedish track and field>woman olympian icelandic rugby>woman olympian norwegian boxingPick any sport. Even the women doing events like diving, gymnastics, etc, tend to have thick necks. Even the 5'0 gymnasts that are 19 years old tend to have thick necks.When you move your body a lot for a living, it happens. Try to pick up something heavy or make a complicated movement, but focus your attention on your neck and shoulders. You unconsciously tense them to stabilize your head, protect your neck, improve stability, etc.

Instead of tits or gtfo and being ignored they got their attentionwhoring rewarded. Now we're at the stage where they feel like they have a comfortable enough majority to start shilling their safe horny and "you don't deserve an attractive women! Ugly fridgebodies are beautiful too!" talking points. Watch as this post triggers them into seething about what features men should be allowed to like and what features are off-limits for attraction. Same demographic forcing the thicc meme because it lets them normalize their fat pig bodies

Spirit summons seem kinda useless to me. People who use or watch mimic/tiche overrate them.Difficulty of playing as a caster is also underrated, unless using some overtuned spells like the slicer. I just fought a DLC boss that isn't hard on melee, but input reading forced me to play in melee range, and fun spells take longer to cast than melee light attacks, also deal barely any posture damage. So casting is actually fun and interesting
Why does Morgott hates ambitious people?

Something that makes me uneasy in From's Souls games and Elden Ring is that there's no natural order.

Am I wasting my time exploring this? Is there anything here? I haven't found a single corpse, chest or loot laying on the ground.
>>489910764>ER must be the only game in the series where you miss out on content by not summoningNo.
>>489910764Summoning NPC phantoms is unironically a worse move than spirit ashes because of how hard they buff the boss HP, it's funny that it's now something you only do on repeat runs where you're just fucking around with bosses you already know by heart. Fromsoft themselves know this and so experimented with NPCs like Igon and Hornsent to eliminate this. Don't know why they didn't do it for Ansbach and Thiolloer, I bet literally only like 1% of players actually beat Consort Radahn with them cuz he gets 5x the HP even though they clearly canonically show up for the fight
>>489860865>>489864236I take it back the smithscript spear is actually very good in PvP.It couples very well with a great shield or a smithscript shield.

>>489907246I'm not some expert on creating attractive female characters but its usually better to just focus on bone structure, making sure you look good enough from the front and sides.

wtf i thought she was a fujoshi
>>489909917There's circumstantial evidence that indicates Rennala's kids were at least not overtly hostile to each other. Like, Ranni gifted Rykard the Blasphemous Claw, and there are Liurnian Marionette Soldiers guarding the Volcano Manor, while there are also Abductor Virgins protecting Caria Manor and Redmane Castle from trespassers. The only thing known of Miquella and Malenia's involvement in the war (aside from slapping down Godrick) was their campaign in Caelid, supposedly aimed at bringing Radahn to heel rather than conquering anything.Mohg was doing his thing gathering followers and taking blood donations, but seems to never have made a move on Leyndell. Frankly it appears only Godrick and Radahn were interested in taking that city.In light of it all, maybe it wasn't so crazy for Radahn to try and besiege Leyndell. The firstborn demigod is assassinated at the hands of mysterious assailants armed with power that should be sealed, the goddess and her husband disappear to who knows where, and in this time of crisis some malformed troglodyte climbs out from a hole in the ground and seizes power in the royal capital, immediately telling everyone to fuck off. A little bit of diplomacy on Morgott's part might have gone a long way.

>>489912960that's a second to last optional area
>>489912960Thats a secret area but like you're pretty close to the end
>>489912960In terms of difficulty, there's 3 areas left excluding the snowfield and you're done with the base game.
I know this isn’t a unique opinion, but upon replaying it the DLC really isn’t very good. I was wowed by the set pieces and the new shit the first playthrough but it really feels empty and boring the second time, and only a handful of the bosses are fun to fight desu. Pepe for this feel?
Who had the best taste in men?

>>489911067>I bet literally only like 1% of players actually beat Consort Radahn with them cuz he gets 5x the HP even though they clearly canonically show up for the fightIt's not that bad. Ansbach even lived to see Radahn die when I beat him. Thollier's poison spam setting up the Poison Flower Blooms Twice skill helped, too. Using it on a poisoned enemy increases its damage quite a bit.
>>489911031iirc there's a sarcophagus for duplicating remembrances NEAR every finger ruin, but not quite IN each one. Other than that, there's nothing really there other than the talismans from blowing the finger in the middle during the Metyr quests.
