millicent is best girl
Godwyn won
Malenia.
>Seamless apparently updated and added a co op boss rush modeI would have been so fucking hyped about this like a year ago
The empyreans have both sets of genitals btwMarika was a futaMiquella was a flat futa that insisted she's a male Malenia's dick rotted off and her vagina molded shut Any questions?
Seamless coop devs added 2 new game modes. I assume they are for parties, but i managed to beat the easy level of the arena solo. Finally a way to get extra larval tears (for those who refuse to use CE)
>black flame and destined death are nerfed in the dlc
>>495689559>the arena that can act like a build theater has respec items as a rewardTHATS LIKE SUCH A GOOD IDEA
I will ass rape Smoughtown to death.
>>495689770They are? Maliketh's black blade (the weapon) was fucking awesome on my first run of the DLC. It helped a ton. Got way more out of that weapon in the DLC than in the base game for sure.
>>495689498No they don't retard. They literally swap genders for the desired set of genitals, hence the 'need' for changing forms at all.
>>495689934Nope. Radagon has a vagina only. Try again.
>>495689498Ehybdoesnt Radagon have boobs
>>495690127Yes. In terms of size they're d cups. But that's partly due to his height.
>>495689181>You can now perform a critical strike players in PvP when you knock them off horseback
>>495690568WhatNo he doesn't
JUST BE GOOD. YOU'RE SO FUCKING COOL WHY AREN'T YOU GOOD AAAAAAA
>>495691714I've been beat up by them a lot
Say something nice
>>495691714Ganker coded weapon....
>>495691714You can make this very good! Alexander shard, lightning damage physik, etc.
>seamless is getting better and better>the covenants mod is in the works >the player sex mod has begun boss testing >the mod based on sotfs is being worked onARE WE BACK???
>>495692304One of these things is not like the other
>>495689181It's not that good right now. Horde mode throws too many enemies at you even on easy mode, it's not fun. Boss rush includes gimmick bosses like Rennala and Rykard in particular which takes forever since the serpent hunter doesnt work.
>>495692960i killed rykard with bleed but yeah you're rightsadly placidusax got me
>>495689498>Any questions?we know mohg was a woman (that's why miquella needed mohg's body to ressurect radahn as his consort)but what about morgott? morgott's ingame model isn't male OR female why is that? what devs wanted to show us?
>>495692960Is there any reward
>>495693553Nta but I don't know, I haven't tried it out
>the first fucking boss of the dlc is alredy harder than MaleniaWhat the fuck.
>>495693486Easy. When people have twins they're often in the same sexual pattern as their other twins. If someome has a male and female twin their other twins are likely to be the same. Messmer and melinaMiquella and maleniaMorgott and mohg
>>495694421Rennala?
>>495694561Divine Beast, it took me like 4 tries to down Malenia first phase and I can't even take 10% hp of this fucker in 10 tries.
Does Elden Ring have any cutting games or do you just have to convert a drinking game?
Wageslave hereI got to DLC Radahn (as in literally in front of his fog), took a break and just didnt get to play or even boot up my PissEss 5....then found out he got patched recently Should I unironically unplug my ethernet cable and try to beat him without patching? Is it really that big of a differeence?
>>495695650Yes, play offline and beat him pre-patch or you didn't beat the game
Where did Humans come from
What is Korean head canon?
>>495697406It's a phrase, Korean headcanon
>>495698503Yeah, but what makes someone's head canon Korean? How outlandish it is? Why?
>>495697406Just a funny phrase. My headcanon about what it means is that it's headcanon with little actual basis in the actual game, just made up, false, like the average Korean apperance with how much they have plastic surgery
>>495692960>>495693285Oh fuck, if serpenthunter doesnt work I'm not doing that shit.
>>495695650Honestly, if you are able to beat him pre-patch, then yeah you really should. its a big difference.>>495696874Numens.
My headcanon is simpleYou know shabriri right? I think he's an empyrean
>>495690762>when you knock them off horsebackWhy would I do this when honed bolt eats people on Horseback and they can't dodge it without dismounting?
>>495698816It means like a type of headcanon specificially
>>495699016Ah okay. I guess my question was really about that, like what do Koreans do that would apply to how out there someone's head canon is?
>you can crit hit people off torrent after stun-locking them because torrent has no poise>not a single thought to just fucking remove torrent in pvp>invasion regions likely won't ever be implemented (have fun getting ganked)>devs begun adding over-zealous anti-cheat developments that'll probably start blacklisting people for even having CE or 3rd party apps idle the background>blocksyncs have been rolled out because the resident turd worlder onlywifi got caught cheating multiple times live on stream>chinese hackers will likely find work arounds or just powercycle the game and hop on an alt regardlessdark ages are upon us. 2 steps foward, 5 steps back
Here's a good one: Miquella didn't know he was charming people, he just thought they really liked him for who he was and appreciated the funny twig gifts he gave them
if a cute femboy gifted me a twig i'd keep it until i'm deadand i'd die holding it to my chest
>>495700297Idk exactly, ir probably comes from like manhwas or something like that, it's just kind of a phrase
>>495688738I like this OP pic, good job
In the archive, the majority of posts saying korean headcanon are just people arguing about and asking what the hell korean headcanon means, going back years.
>>495703686The North Koreans certainly have some crazy head canon about the world.
Game finally deadTime to post garbagehttps://voca.ro/11iPaQOy8MOmWorry, I will shit up the thread like this while active.
Lies of P devs put out a reminder that they're still making the DLC recently.LoP has such a good story and presentation (the musical street and opera are fantastic), it just makes me sad that ER DLC promised a lot in terms of lore and understanding the world, and turned out to be a complete disappointment
>>495700505>resident turd worlder onlywifi got caught cheating multiple times live on streamqrd?
>>495700505>>not a single thought to just fucking remove torrent in pvpFuck off you retard, torrent in pvp is one of the most fun decisions
>>495706094Rinnegan Melina.
>>495706094She looks like she does drugs
>>495689181I just tried it and you have to beat all the bosses to participate in the boss rush.I'm not allowed without beating placidusax
>>495706597She does
Bosd Rush and Horde Mode are dogshit.I'd rather defend a castle from an army of Margit or Godrick
Rya cuts herself but Melina definitely puts out cigarettes on her arms, right? They're burned.
I can get the bloody finger after killing Mohg, right?
>>495704817Please don't. I'm the person who posted that originally and 4chan is still all straight men. You have great taste, but it feels rude and uncomfortable intruding upon that, even if I'm not a straight guy.
The modding scene is killing the game.
>>495705000They just ran out of time broJust like the base gameJust like BloodborneJust like DS3Just like DS2Just like DS1
>>495707215>4chan is still all straight men.Kill yourself pickme
can retards stop overwriting my golden vow spell with either their shittier ash version or with the standards skill?
>>495707465Okay!
>>495707717R.i.p.
>WOAUGHAUOAUQGHHH!How do you respond without sounding mad?
>>495707617they overwrite most buffs but buff for 5 mins
>there was a Biblical flood in ER's ancient history >it was a flood of molten stone>the coffin ships are made of stone because they're actually arks meant to help the Ancient Dynasty survive the molten flood>the Divine Towers and Fire Gisnts' bowl even have caked on stone from being hit by waves of molten magma>this is why there's entire structures underneath the bedrock you see in the cliffs in Caelid and Limgravecoolhttps://youtu.be/6KHiCKDj0JM
>>495706094So it wasn't that she was the gloam eyed queen, it's that she inherited a cursed aspect of destined death in her eye that was sealed away the same as Messmer's serpent. Messmer's power just required a stronger seal than whatever she has going on.Do I have that right?
>>495709130I love that artist.
>>495709130Maybe
>>495708721Honestly one of his best videos recently. And I usually disagree with him about the lore implications of some of his ideas. I'm glad he backpedaled on some of his more cringe theories, and even accepted changes to others (the molten debris on each of the divine towers faces a different direction, not towards a single source). It answers the titan skeletons, magma sorcery (only ever attempted by man and serpent), putrescence yet the known survivors of the coffins. It really all lines upAnd 3 ships surviving mirrors the one ship of the Tarnished that stayed behind. Yes, I think he might actually have figured it out.
>>495709180Miquelia is the best
>>495709860Cutest artstyle ever.
>>495708721Just realized it's probably why the massive underground region exists in the first place. They weren't underground originally, a layer of magma covered over the roof of the Rauh structures and solidified into a ceiling. That or magma tubes, either/or.What on Earth happened to Rauh?
>>495708249Mt. Gelmir has erupted before. The last time it did, the world was covered in a Sea of Magma.https://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Magma+Whip+Candlestickhttps://eldenring.wiki.fextralife.com/Sea+of+MagmaA great fiery serpent lies buried deep within the bowels of the earth. It holds domain over profane flames and ambition. When it stirs, magma pours from Mt Gelmir's maw. Children born under its sign include Mesmer, the Gloam Eyed Queen, and Rykard. Stars govern fate. Being born under the stars of a certain Outer God ties your fate to theirs.
Are axes good nowNot great axes, normal ones
>>495710113Oh my god thats why obsidian is used by the godskins and associated with destined death. Solidified magma... Holy shit. A supereruption caused by a meteor impact maybe?That's why the serpent is a traitor. It was a 'traitor' to the ancient numen who lived in Rauh. Marika's hammer is made of stone. Perhaps the old numen were master builders who could shape molten stone, and lost control of their volcano Valyria style
>>495710313they're okayPS moveset is still awful, but they get the job done Death Knight Axes and Stormhawk Axe basically justify the category's existence >best fuck off tool>best chase tooland both conveniently deal lightning damage
>>495710313Can I roleplay a lictor?
>>495710313They are ok I guessMaybe for Elden Ring 2 they'll finally put motherfucking bleed on axes like they should have since DS1
In a world where God places value / significance on how many fingers you have, a snake would seem especially profane. NO FINGERS????FINGERLESS???????
>>495710427Godskin Nobles grow snake tails for a reason
>>495708047I know you told me to kill myself but why do I find you cute?
>>495711840Why are you asking me
>>495711785Soon they will be the death of the gods. The meteoric ore greatsword says it was an arrowhead from an armament of the old gods. Not outer, old. I think the titans might have been these gods, since the arrowhead is a colossal sword. The volcano serpent of eden became the death of the gods, and paradise was no more
>>495711943Tell me again. Be meaner.
>>495712095plz no bully
>>495706094>>495709130I saw a theory that Death used to be purple, but Malekith literally sealed away the red part of death. Ghost flame is the blue part of death.
>>495712186R.I.P.!!!
>>495712281What would the distinction be?
>>495712115I DIDN'T EVEN THINK ABOUT THE SNAKE IN EDEN WTFDid GRRM literally just remix the Bible with a Harry Potter + Lovecraft spitshine???
>>495712212*bullies*Oh sorry I misread. Sorrynotsorry
>>495712420stop asking stupid questions death is convoluted
>>495712494Bit of lord of the rings in there too as far as fiction goes. There is some surprisingly deep mythological and esoteric principles within the games lore too, but surface level, yeah you basically covered it. It's game of thrones meets the bible
Now that reddit hates Radahn does that mean /erg/ is now a Radahn board? Kinda funny the dicksucking he received at release has been completely reversed by the DLC, I don't think I've even seen an unironic "did you know he learned gravity magic for his horse wholesome gigachad 100" post in a hot minute
>>495712767/erg/ hates the game, the loregooners are just in their cope phase because they made this game their personality
>>495712494Like, Astel is basically 1 to 1 with a winged scorpion monster from Revelation, and Messmer is almost literally a primordial serpent locked in hell persecuting sinners, even though he just wants to love his mom, god. Marika oversees paradise from a golden city with a tree of life that gives off healing light.Jesus in Rev is said to appear like a multihorned sheep, not unlike the crucible. There's a lot more
>>495712767SOTE was a nuclear bomb
>>495713268I haven't seen something tank so hard so fast after the final boss came out. Not since Game of Thrones last season has a piece of media ran full tilt off a cliff for no reason other than pandering and studio fumbles
This is cropped BL don't open it if you don't want to see that
>>495713834I wish Radahn had a personality
>>495713834i want to see the full picture
>>495713903I dont like bringing him back anyway, but it annoys me that he was brought back because reddit eanted a "radahn in his prime!" thing and he STILL doesn't have any personality so what was the point?

What are your opinions on the hornsent?
>>495712767this is still a MALENIA board
>>495716684Oh fuck you, you piece of shit.
>>495716684I don't have enough information to make an educated opinion>b-but muh ghostNot enough, like the entire lore of this shit game
>>495716684We should genocide them 5 more times
>>495716684I would want to live under them, but after the fact I want to genocide them if that makes sense.

>>495716931I would fine with being jarring if it didn't make you into an ugly meatball monster
Can't wait for the ER gacha to have better writing than the base game+DLC
>>495717278The games are not canon, the gacha is
What do we think about TA's lava flood theory?I like the guy's videos and sure all the evidence is there, but I feel like he still somehow has it all wrong.
>>495717450Who is TA
>>495717506Total Annihilation.
>>495717506Timed Attack.
>>495717580>>495717629You can't both be right these answers are conflicting! At least one of you isn't right!
>>495716476I recently got it fixed. I swapped motherboards and my old windows key was claimed to be invalid by the system when I took the screenshots
>>495716740It's much better now but being a Malenia fan at release was fucking bleak, one thing I'll thank loretubers for is that the popular Malenia videos are generally well made and helped steer the view of her character to a more nuanced and lore accurate view instead of "evil stinky rot bitch who had to cheat against wholesome chungus Chadahn" propoganda. Radahn's reputation being dragged through the mud must have been karmic justice at how obnoxious his fanboys were at release, they're not even that annoying anymore but they left such a lasting awful impression that "did you know he learned gravity magic to ride his horse" has become a meme in itself
Mage girls or knight girls, what's your flavor?
>>495717987Knight girls, because I love the idea of removing only the bare minimum needed, fuck them in the ass, and then help them put their armor back so that they can go fight while enjoying the feeling of hot cum in their ass.But I'm a huge pervert.
>>495717987I'm suprised they didn't make any minigame based around an among us style thing where you try and find the traitor Leda was talking about or atlwast some kind of falling tiles game
>>495717987Mage girls. They're small, wear short skirts, and are very spankable.
>>495716931genuinely cool comic, but Marika wasn't a jar saint. 'saint' was just the term used by the translation team to fuck with us apparently because it just meant 'good person'. That's why criminals were mixed in with them, to make the bad goodMarika likely 'seduced' one of the hornsent at Bonny to escape this fate. What made her special was being an Empyrean, not being a successful jarNow saying that, I genuinely enjoyed the comic. 10/10 I now want to air drop Maliketh into Belurat all over again. Fuck the Hornsent Inquisitors, and fuck Bonny village
>>495718115
>>495717987Knight girl that's actually a noblewoman, and really embarrassed about it
having sexual thoughts is weird
>>495718770I think I have a huge fetish for clothed sex. Maybe it's the sense of urgency.
>>495718952average zoomer level of sexual maturity
many people said that godskin apostles, despite being the worst boss, got the best soundtrackbut mohg's 1st phase clears everything easily>>495716740this is a morGOD board
>>495719143I haven't thought about it in awhile but I had a big thing for torn clothes, and/or the idea of them being torn or worn down over time because of no way to mend or replace it from isolation/stranded somewhere until they basically go from torn clothes to threadbare useless rags and scraps that don't really do anything except give a slight illusion of dignity for not being "naked" naked
What's Leda's accent?
>>495718494Do you post in /xivg/ by chance
>>495720186I haven't posted there in... around 10 hours, so something like 20 threads ago.Too fast for me.
>>495720145Sounds like a northern English accent, probably Manchester?
>>495718945Aren't all knights technically nobles?
>>495706094Why are the hands drawn so hot and erotic? Is this a hentai artist?
>>495721543Because hands are hot? And no, you just like hands
>>495720136...damn, reading your post hurts me because I understand what you mean and why it'd appear hot, but since it's not my fetish, I don't feel the same passion.
>>495713451They pretty much suck for the exact same reason too, SotE just on a smaller scale, Miquella not helping Malenia after Caelid is the games equivalent to Jaime's "I never cared for the innocent" line, just outright character assassination that makes all of their previous lore/arc completely pointless, and the entire "plot twist" of PCR is the games equivalent to "Dany goes crazy" moment. Not to mention all the dropped plot points that are never mentioned or elaborated on (what's the Haligtree again?)
>>495722204>what's the Haligtree againThe place where I'll spank Miquella.
>>495722037Thats fine, everyone's got their things, it's the same thing as like talking about a book you're reading to someone who doesn't know about it, it's just about a sexual topicSometimes I wish I was someone else reading my posts because I laughed at the idea of replying with >>threadbare useless rag>Relatablebut wasn't gonna samefag for the joke
>>495722514Yeah, I get it. It's like hearing someone gush over all the ways to cook shrimps while you cannot stomach any kind of sea food. You can feel the passion he has, but you can't really sympathize.
>>495722703You what, mate?
>>495722869I'm saying that shrimps are shit. Crabs are the real deal.
>>495723162ThatsTheJoke.avi
>>495723354I realized
>>495720397Are you the guy who poses the spanking stuff
>>495722265proof?
Elden Ring is based on real events and the events of the history of the lands between actually happened irl Think on that
>>495723761Yes.>>495723684lmoa>>495723869My fanfic. Stay tuned for the end of the itnroduction and the start of the proper story.
>>495724358Yeah I met Astel last week
>>495716931I do believe that Marika was a jar saint. Specifically, she was the shaman and Radagon was the criminal, and they were fused together to become a saint/good person. See redflesh and whiteflesh mushrooms being obvious Marika/Radagon references and being used as jar mear substitute.Furthermore - I think that the process involves the innard flesh fusing with the jar. Which is why Marika is made of clay and is hollow inside.
Being jarred should just mean being sealed inside with the meat and sensory deprivation for years, it shouldn't involve fusing with it to become the giant lump, that's just weird.
dlc is non canon
>>495726225The base game is too
>>495720136They also emphasize form. Fishnets are a great example. I think the sense of urgency and impulse are part of it, and it kinda goes along with what you're saying cause still having clothes on makes it easier afterwards. Like you couldn't wait and found somewhere private to just drop your pants and fuck before getting back to whatever was going on before that.Just my take on it, as a fellow enjoyer of partially clothed fucking
>>495725780>Godrick the Grafted would like a wordNo but think about it. Godrick created monstrosities with grafting, and the people used for it became 'chrysalids', a saint by any other name. By the time we arrive the golden lineage has fallen to such depravity that they are emulating the very massacre that sparked its creation.
anyone down for an FC tonight
>>495727346HAHAHAHAHAThat's a good one
>>495726612Maybe that's what Rykard was doing, too. The blasphemous blade even looks like the jar saints and the divine gate when Marika is there in the cutscene.It also gives the turtle Pope's like about how "all things can be conjoined," more weight.
>>495727346God I can't believe I actually kinda miss the pre DLC shitshows, why did everything have to go down the shitter with this dogshit DLC
>>495728287Tell me about it. Seriously, what the fuck

So what is exactly is the significance of hair in this game and divinity? Is there some Japanese cultural language I'm missing here?>Malenia and Radahn's knights, to show their loyalty, adopt helmets with decorations modeled on their commanders' hair>Radagon despairs at his hair color as if it's a big deal >Godwyn's nickname is his hair color >Rennala blessed her younger sister's path by giving her a long lock of her hair >Marika left a braid of her hair at her home village as a memorial when she became a god, and it's magic hair that boosts your holy resistance if you carry it>Malenia, Marika, and Miquella all have HUUUUUUUGE long hair when they become gods, but apparently its temporary because Marika's looks normal later and presumably Malenia won't still have hers when she steps out of the flower (and she's implied to have already assumed this form before)>the helmets you make from Remembrances have hair attached to them as if the Erdtree really wanted that detail kept for e.g. Malenia and Godfrey

ohhhhhhhhelden ring...
>>495728274Oh he for sure is mimicking it, about that same as Mohg. They seem to know the rough ingredients of the rituals to become lords or gods, or at least emulate their power, but they don't seem to know the specifics of it. Mohg knows an Empyrean + a fuckton of blood + a Lord = A god and an Order. Rykard knows that by fusing many lifeforms together one can grow massively in strength. Godrick knows the exact mechanism of grafting down to using it almost like an artform and in the heat of battle, including grafting between species with the dragon (the dragon is the archetypal lord figure). Godrick knows numen blood is needed, but not how or why. He hasn't figured out that you can concentrate more power than just the raw strength in the parts, but the very spirit as well

/erg/ let's have a serious discussion I want you all to chip inWhat killed fight clubs exactly? In bloodborne general even fightclubs remained something people often did long after the last dlc. What happened?
>>4957354164man limit
>>495735416Just host one you annoying zoomer faggot. 4chan is shit now because idiots like you expect someone else to do all the work.
>>495735416The game is unbalanced cancer and it's unfun and unrewarding to get good at it because some scrub can just land one L2 and take more than half your HP away
>>495706094right eye reminds me of Brennan Frasier's JUST eyes
If you use a great katana you’re a nigger
>>495708721TA's first DLC video was also phenomenal. Super excited to check this one out
>>495735416what do you mean i'm hosting one right nowget in
>>495736424Wow! It's a great katana user! I wonder what kind of crazy moves are they going to p->Poke>Poke>Poke>Laggy flaming strike
>>495736646Should said so retard
>>495726612>By the time we arrive the golden lineage has fallen to such depravity that they are emulating the very massacre that sparked its creation.Based, and a great observation.
>>495735416lorefags and offtopic posters
>>495736647No flame. They icing now. I just started multiplayer a couple days ago for first time. And I have qualms with other weapon users and spammers. Like people who spam the wind circles. But great katanas are clearly the gayest thing right now
>>495737076You said the same thing twice, lore is off topic imo
2/4THERE'S HOPE
>>495717278You are a pathetic plague, and a fool who is easily parted with his money. A daring combo.
>>495737169My only issue is the lorefaggotry is like 99% headcanon
>>495737386I'm not retarded enough to spend money on mobile games.
anons get in...>>495736646
>>495728287>>495735416>>495735670>>495733880>>495732969>>495732617>>495737386Why aren't you joining then? >>495736646
>>495737586Because I'm in bed. A man's gotta work.
I want to kiss a femanon
>>495737709I have a job too and like I only get 30 minutes to 2 hours of sleep a night so I can play videogames too, you can get up
>>495737709>>495737875Don't post if you can't play.Simple as
>>495737875that's not a good thing anon
>>495737749Join the fight club, play the game
>>495737586I uninstalled the game
>>495737875Sorry man, but no. My job's pretty intense, long hours. Project management and accounting. There's at least a few others lurking around here who have nothing better to do that could easily join. I'm not even at my PC right now
>>495737950would you kiss me if I did?
3/4 WE'RE SO CLOSE
Gonna leave the queue real quick so i can grab an ash of war>>495738063Take caffeine pills
>2/4Very funny
>>495737913Come and stop me.
Which death knight axe should I use? Long or twin?
Would you guys join a console fight club? On Playstation
>>495738279Right after you joined the other anon left :( i saw 3/4 pop up and posted >>495738194come back anon!
>>495738393I am! I just wanted to go grab an ash of war I want to use>>495738168I didn't say anything I just said to join
>try to rejoin queue>instant connection errorYay
Still 2/4...
requeue i guess
>>495738564so no kisses?
hol up we're back 3/4GET IN.
>>495739130So what shall it be? Do you join the fc, or do you die here? Join, die! Join! Die!
>>495737036The dlc retroactively made me enjoy Godrick a whole lot more than I previously did. Grafting became much more impressive with it as well. I remember the bizarre theories surrounding it before it released. The very first story trailer opens with Godrick grafting a hand. They were teasing us from the beginning. "Look what he can do. Bet you want to know how he does it huh?", even his final line. "One day we'll return together, to our home bathed in rays of gold"He was a mirror of Marika from the beginning, down to escaping Leyndell during the siege instead of helping or fighting
So why is like almost every single faction based around mashing things together into 1 whole?The hornsent, Rykard, Frenzied FlameIt's weird that there's atlesst 3
>>4957366463/4...
>>495739675Apparently only 3 people play the game
>>495739351Life force is a quantifiable attribute in this world, and it can be used to achieve supernatural results. Think philosophers stone from FMAB. Some of this life is already dead inside of glintstone or golden amber, but it can just as easily be accessed from living beings. This is how the gate of divinity was created. Through grafting, and concentrating the power of many thousands of beings into a single one, think the emperor from 40k on Moloch.Marika's children aren't stupid, they know at least some of the past, and many know magic outright. Every one of them is trying to become stronger, and the easiest way to do that with their heritage is to just literally take it and make it there own. They aren't absorbing runes after the enemy dies, they're absorbing them with everything elseThat many would turn to it given the desperation of the events and the opportunity it provides is just a given
>"want to kiss" some "femanon" (haven't been here in 2 months idk the lore)>yet no one comes and plays with the femanon

>>495741408Got things to do. Just passing by after all, gave it a shot and nothing happened. Let's try another day.

I wish like they made it so if you had like 3 people you could let in a random person into the fourth slot

>NOOOOOOO PLAY THE SHIT PVP WITH MEI have retired, From doesn't deserve my time no matter how many pointless "balance" updates they put out, they need to rework a lot of the systems from the ground up, they had 2 fucking years and all they did was release an incomplete mess with more of the same problems because they were afraid of offending casuals>No TT fix>No six player limit>No interesting multiplayer systems>No meaningful rewards>No proper downscaling systemLet it all burn, remove the multiplayer system
>>495742991Did you try to join the fc? Or were you the person who started it
>>495743093Absolutely based.
>>495743103I'm not pancakes aka dsgtroon double agentAnd i started the fc.
>>495743093You're retired??? How old are you?
>>495743169Are you the dude that blocked me?
>>495743169Okay good I was going to call you a retard and to kill yourself for real for a second because I thought you were someone complaining about it not being dead but not joining
>>495743173
>>495743230i've never blocked anyone in this game so far
>>495743347I blocked the noxtroon and grass because of their rampant shitposting lmfao
>>495743448Kinda based ngl. Lowly times, these are…erg and dsg on their knees...
>>495743093Meh, well said. It's all a crude mockery of what people used to enjoy these days, they've lost sight of the essence and now are hardly even competent enough to keep the game functioning properly without duct tape. At this point, just remove PvP entirely and let the normies get babysat by their OL Bubba's RPing MMO games. I'm tired of trying to make it workAlso, Puke Yui just took 5 steps backwards in the recent seamless update, there really is no hope>>495743448>there will come a time when nobody even remembers these namesBittersweet
if a femanon posted feet i would join the fc...
>>495743950Kill yourself
>>495743950It's too late now anyway, retard
never too late to post feet
>>495708721Only lorefag worth watching. Everyone else is making tons of shit up and STILL coming to very obvious conclusions.George RR Martin has a patern of creating settings after a great cataclysm that took out a more advanced society, leaving a more medieval society. A Post-Post-Apocalyptic setting, so this lines up well with the rest of his fiction.
>>495744707except the lands between are ruined, so civilization hasn't really recovered
>>495744141>>495744526
>>495744898Post-post-post-post apocalypse. (Did I get that right? lol) Damn near so many major collapses happed in this setting, they are layered on top of eachother. Which is how the map is played out.Now the real question is, will there be another major apocalyptical event that wipes the slate clean. Oh shit...Madness is the canonical ending. I'm just kidding really.
>>495744526It's like gremlins, yoy can't after midnight
>>495745176none of this matters, because miyazaki is allergic to making a setting where normal people liveeverything has to be a war-torn, abandoned, decrepit shithole where everybody tries to kill you>>495745505you are so cute
That old man with the tablet was the very first sorcerer EVER who discovered the founding rain of stars, the meteor shower that covered the land in amber and probably kick started the great eruption and pyroclastic flow of ancient more active mt. gelmir.Perhaps the mother of fingers was in that first rain of stars, seeing as she teaches sorceries as well. We have already concluded that miracles are just theologically branded sorceries.>>495745743You're just a pussy bro. Plenty of magical school girl settings for you, just go play a gatcha or something if you want things to be neat all the time for your low bandwith mind. This stuff isn't even hard or all that esoteric at the end of the day.
>>495745743Qhat?
>>495735416>the dlc will fix the game>the dlc will fix the game>the dlc will fix the gameinvasions being the same + co-op being worse because of skibidi system was a big fuck you to anyone who cared about the multiplayer, so they never returned or left, with the only people left being "lore" "experts" trying to show how smart they are with their "epic" lore discussion
QRD on femanon?Bonus points: QRD on how the dlc was so bad that it killed both erg in dsg in record time?
>>495746127FROM sucks ass at PVP, and they have never fixed the PVP in ANY of their games. (Yes, even the one you're thinking about faggot stfu) EldenRing is as close as they ever came to even attempting to fix or balance the PVP with constant updates. They fucking suck at competitive PVP, and they should stop trying. Unless they make a dedicated PVP game, where that is the main premise they should keep it on the back burner for as long as possible - because it isn't fucking important no matter how much you rollbabs cry about it.
>>495746341NoMain appeal for me personally is the lore, and it did nothing to tie anyrhing together and all answers to any questions are just "We don't know" unless people want headcanons
>>495746341attention whore2 years to release, mid at best
>>495746341>QRD on femanon?she's weird but I like her
Don't fuck with us Elden Ring fansWe don't play elden ring
dsg plays more elden ring than erg
>>495689498Yeah, that's the only logic that makes sense on why Miquella is one despite using Radahn as a cocksleeve.And that's also why Godfrey is the father of Messmer and Melina, since they have hair that implies parentage of Radagon which means that Godfrey knocked up Radagon's futa pussy.
>>495716684Should be revived with their memories intact then genocided.Repeat this about 20 times and then kill them for good as the 21st time.
>>495746996I'm not gay but...
>>495746601Kill yourself
>>495746851yeah but we're straighter than dsg
>>495746851dsg is also more mentally ill than elden ringStockholm syndrome is an epidemic
augh god dammit i need smithing stones
i keep getting killed by weed cutter and it's fucking infuriating. i know exactly what these faggots are trying to do, desperately trying to make me trade it, yet SOMETHING always goes fucking wrong. the game eats my roll input, the game queues up a roll input so the roll i wanted to delay to not get roll caught comes out too fucking early, it's always fucking something and I'm just dead because I get hit by two attacks + a bleed proc.
>>495743787>Also, Puke Yui just took 5 steps backwards in the recent seamless update, there really is no hopeWhat did he do
>>495749759What level/upgrade are you? I managed relatively fine on my +15/+6, level 80 strength character.
>>495751159Antspur+17, Frozen Needle+6I'm not great when it comes to builds or PvE in general but my strategy is basically rot and then kite, get the last bit for the transition after the rot times out, summon wolves and proc bleed during the transition, and just try to not die after that
>>495750425Recent update did nothing but inconvenience a bunch of the playerbase because some underage children and chinks kept toggling on normies (You now won't be able to run any QoL or extensive mods in the background lest you get filtered from matchmaking)Open world invasions (w/ torrent) are still a thing, player regions probably won't happen, people can still sever out the moment it doesn't go their way, campers and gankers still rampant, and now the rest of the sweats have migrated over to start Pontiff V2. Only the two extremes of bottom of the barrel, inept retards and slimy tryhards are happy, with everyone in between getting shafted
TIRED OF SHITTERS?TIRED OF BACKHAND BLADES?TIRED OF RETARDS?MAY I PRESENT TO YOU, MALIKETH'S BLACK BLADE!

>>495757906stick to one rapier

>>495758739No.

>>495759179>99 balls
>>495759408just a precaution so i don't automatically lose every time an invader pull their infinite scarlet rot/madness/sleep consumables from their ass.
>>495759641Why don't you have max flasks?
ooooohh elden ring
>>495759797because i don't like having cheating, i just think the bolus thing is a necessary evil to have any kind of fun using taunter's tongue in the early game.
>>495759874Look up at the sky. It burns.
>>495760035*don't like having to cheatnot sure how i butchered that so hard
>>495758292It does matter, the rapier dual wield moveset is slow as fuck and animation locks you. Use one rapier and be able to dodge better.
>>495751991>>495757906If my unskilled arse could do it, you can do it. I BELIEVE IN YOU
>>495729810You're the cool crossword guy! Congratulations!You know, I used to wake up at 5 am to get dragged to church service in different town at 6. It was boring as fuck, I masturbated in church. I'd suck you off for free if I could.I hope you have a wonderful day! But of you don't like your job, don't force yourself too much.
>>495730864Hair has always veen a very significant aspect of important people/kings/gods/demigods, and on the flipside slaves and very low class people had their hair shaved. It's something that has veen lost over the passage of time, but I think intuitively most people see hair styles/length as indicators of a person's personality/quality. Long and healthy hair is like god tier vitality/virility/saintly for example.If you want to see a real life example of hair helmets, the swedish royal guard use blond haired helmets and I'm sure the color is specifically blonde for a reason (lol)
>>495707717>>495762596?
>>495738378too busy until 9th of next month or so, after that I will be down for coop and FC on PS
>>495765096Sorry, I'm way too happy for that. No way!
>>495765546Nooo
>>495765661It's okay!
>>495749759alternate the two rapiers insteas of using ps moveset. +12 grave scythe was enough for me this week
>>495758292>mid level without ritual shield talismancome on. Add the defense physik, too
>>495766469>recommending Ritual Shield Talisman ever
I dont like the fact that powerstancing movesets aren't like some unique moveset, it annoys me that they're basically just the base moveset but like "more"
So what was the reason Ranni decided to accept the Blackflame witches? Is it because she had already been a birth giver at the top of the Liurnia grand tower?

>>495768781I hate being TOLD to fall asleep and feel RELAXED by strangers
I hope all rot users get beaten with sticks. Also dragon communion users. Actually beat the rot users *with* the dragon communion users, that way one is hit with the fattest ugliest thing around and the other gets their face smacked against the rot repeatedly.
>>495767354so did you get filtered this hard or ...?
Is tree lvl 1 too low for divine beast? I'm stuck trying to kill this shitty boss.
>>495777352yeah you should have way more fragmentsgo explore a bit
>>495777352>>495777984I'm at 17 and the only boss I've killed is Gaius.
>>495777352I didn't use any fragments for the whole DLC and had no issue
>>495777352You can grab a few skidibi fragments before fighting the Lion. Do you want hints, or are you going to explore on your own?>>495778293Holy shit, on your first run you did that?
>>495766304Grave scythe is such a fucking good weapon. Its genuinely one of the best PVE weapons
Elden ring... "open world"....
best place to test my fashion so i can check if my stuff isnt suddenly shiny like a mirror while outside or lead black in a dungeon
>completely missing from the DLC>not directly mentioned once either>still gets a ton of art from it
>>495739226Hell yeah brother.
>>495779903Going to explore on my own, thanks for the tips.
>>495779903>on your first run you did that?Yeah
>>495777352I did it around skibidi 5 and had mild trouble, so with the right build and enough patience and skill it's certainly doable
>>495780240They really fucked up the fashion in this game. No armor fits with each other because the shades of gold/silver are all different from each other. Hell, even the black armors don't fit together. Wtf Fromsoft. How do you go from DS2 letting you mix basically anything thanks to uniform metallic textures to this bullshit?
>>495780594No problem. And good luck - the Lion is definitely a strange boss with erratic patterns and bizarre attacks, but he's actually quite a fun boss when you've got enough fragments to fight him. Plus this theme and his level are amazing in my opinion.
>>495781193I think the first time I did it around scadutree level 2 or 3, and it was pretty damn hard. 5 is definitely a good place to be if you can manage it.
>>495780130I went back to it after a long break and was positively surprised by the range. Can't go wrong with it in pvp either
>>495781746For sure, its fast, its long, it breaks poise easily, its good for stance breaking. It has innate bleed so it works on strength, dex, or arcane builds, and honestly its probably good on any build.
>>495780446She's hot
>>495784996She's ugly and has brown hair, her weird frizzy hair in that ending is ugly
>>495787681Melina is pretty, unlike you
>>495787743She's kind of pretty but she's ugly. I'm not ugly
>>495787852You act like you're ugly, and you probably have brown hair too
>>495787927How do I "act like I'm ugly"?Look at her hair in that ending, it's so messed up it's like it's singed or she hadn't washed it or brushed it
>>495788228You're constantly putting other women down, it's clearly insecurity about your own looks
>>495788484They're fake people im a videogame amd you don't know anything about my sex, I didn't say anythingYou're telling me that you think her hair just looks completely normal, not different at all? Like if you saw that hair irl you wouldn't assume she was like on crack and going to kill herself?
>>495788810>you don't know anything about my sex, I didn't say anythingThis schtick is getting old, we all know you're a girl>You're telling me that you think her hair just looks completely normal, not different at all?Her hair is not the point, you were the one to bring it up. You're just looking for characters to project your insecurities on to
>>495789140based. women are so mean to each other, fictional or not. everyone in this general thinks meli meli a cute, even after the frenzy ending. in fact, many like her even more
>>495789140So is making random guessesI wasn't the one to being it up, the post said she was hot and posted a picture showing off ugliness so I looked how out their weren't right
>>495789240How? Her hair looks awful, like this basically
>>495693486Morgott is my grandma. This is a 100 canon and lore.
>>495789640is that you?
>>495788228>like it's singedno shit sherlock, not like the world burned down in this cutscene or something
>>495787681Is this the "any hair that isn't blonde is subhuman" schizo
>>495790228Yes, obviously. She spends more time on /erg/ than I do. I hope she's less deranged in real life, I feel bad for her
>>495789734I lowkey wish Morgott was my grandma.Or grandpa.Or grandsomething.Morgott is perfect blend of awesome and comfy and bittersweet.
>>495789640it doesn't look like that at all, are you blind?
This is the best game ever created. This is my Saturday and this morning I will go to a local BBQ place for steak, eggs, and potatoes or whatever. I suck at this game, and its the best game ever created.
>>495730905I mean, some swords are sold blunt, like that cavalry saber. You just gotta make sure the blade is part of the handle, otherwise it might come off if you swing it and nail the neighbour's wife's ass.>>495735147How so? Give me a kopesh already.
>>495791856It really isn't but enjoy your breakfast anon
>>495791856Sounds comfy. Last week I got bacon, eggs, and potatoes at a breakfast resturaunt, then beat promised consort for the 2nd time (after the nerfs sadly) in less than an hour. Was a very comfy morning.
>1.12 patch notes about added dex scaling was actually for qualitydo they just speed translate patch notes? like these last ones mixed up colossal swords with colossal weapons

>>495787681>her weird frizzy hair in that ending is ugly>>495788228>How do I "act like I'm ugly"?>Look at her hair in that ending, it's so messed up it's like it's singed or she hadn't washed it or brushed itThat's sex bed hair. And it's pretty hot.You wouldn't know as a maidenless
Post only your KINOest tarnished.
>>495805714GRRM contributed a loose timeline "5000 years ago" along with the cringe naming conventions and the rapey Dung Eater. He hasn't been involved with the game since like 2019. FROM did all the heavy lifting from there, so you can blame the DLC on FROM.I bet Messmer is 100% FROM, dude talks about light and dark like he's from Dark Souls and he had absolutely no presence in the base game. Miquella and Radahn is a leftover from GRRM's incest mandate.
>>495806258It's not, it's ugly
>>495799549the game would have been better without Puke Yui and GRRM
>>495806445simple look but I just love staff of the great beyond and being a pure caster.Btw I make my tarnished wear fire knight chest piece almost since the dlc came out, it's too kino. This is a rare exception
>>495799634Suck my dick. It's okay when invaders use cheat engine to give themselves maxed flasks, talismans and talisman slots, every consumable In the game, but it's not okay for me to just give myself the Boluses and nothing else so I actually have a fighting chance against them?
>>495809946NOOOOOOOOO YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO DO THAT!!! ONLY INVADERS ARE ALLOWED TO HAVE CHEAT ENGINE!!!!!!!!!!
>>495766304Why wouldn't you use the ps moveset? It attacks with both and it's much faster than attacking with either alone.
How's this game on a PC with KB/M?
>>495810215powerstancing is bad for status motion values, and that's where the most damage comes from at low/mid upgrades
>>495810836Normal
>>495810836Not great but it's okayish
>>495810836If you're an ultra autist hard swapping pvp tryhard, it's better than controller. Anything below that, don't bother.
>Overall disliked elden ring because all the fun shit is so spread out, hidden in anuses, and the game is generally fucking way too long for replayability>Too many copy pasted fights where they just add MORE instead of making a better fight>Never used ashesNow I used CE(because everyone does for new builds on PC for the exact reasons I stated above), gave myself all talismans, AOW, Bellbearings, Scrolls, Prayer books, and fucking cookbooks, a few weapons, and restarting at level 1.And im gonna use plenty of summons because the game gives you like 30 to use and try.God the games great now.Anyone know if the Rando isnt still fucked? You can softlock by getting a skibidi required boss spawning in the roundtable instead of edge lord.
>>495810836I beat every souls game on PC with kb/m and lvl 1ed them all besides ER and did shitloads of PVP.KB/M is the best, but you gotta learn to play with it. Your inputs are far snappier and you have to realize that.
>>495810836It's fine, saves your hands from cramps.
Who killed Thops?

>>495813553I'm happy for youor sad that it happened
>>495815685He used his lifeforce to create an "ash of war".
Bayle should've been the Elden Beast's consort.
Why does Mohg have wings?
>>495819045I think its because his horns bring him closer to the crucible, so just like Crucible Knights with wings he can call upon them when needed.
>>495819045He's divine
i dont like the duck feet of the banished knight legs, do any of the other knight legs fight the rest of the set?
Am I wrong to think the lore and story is told like fucking dogshit in ER but is the most interesting with Demon Souls and BB?this was the only one I couldnt piece together myself at all.
>>495810853>status motion valuesI thought the status buildup per hit was fixed. Where can I read more on this?
>>495819045Considering that his phase transiton opens permanent body transformation, is a ritual for an outer god with weird intensions, and he even gives you a countdown while demonstrating he can do this ritual (as if trying to dissuade us from forcing him to use it), I'm wondering if this is some mutually assured description type of thing, and what kind of impact would it have if ourguy didn't take him down near immediately after
>>495819045Because it's fucking cool
>>495820583no idea but it's (relatively) common knowledge. For example, war cry colossal cr2s are well known to have incredibly high status buildup. The rest maybe you need to feel out, I never found precise values
>>495815685He was wearing the Twinsage Crown with base VIG and stubbed his toe on the door.
>>495820583search for the motion value list and check the status tab
>>495789640Cute.
>>495819045because wings are usefuland awesomechad omens have wingsvirgin omens have only tails
I want to make Freiren more like a ball-headed. Need to make all head rounder now.
>>495824889delete this disgusting man-face now
>>495825089Dont worry I fixed her. Now this is a true Frieren.
>>495826420much better, but a bit fat I'd say.What spells btw?
>>495827513Only the high magic
>>495827662What about the spell for cleaning your armor?
>>495822864It really isnt
Everyone says Radahn v Malenia was all a staged fight to send his soul to the Land Of Shadow and he was in on it etc. But what if it wasn't staged, because Radahn instead thought it a challenge? It wasn't "I'll be your consort and you can give me glorious death in battle", but instead it was "I'll be your consort IF you can face up to me in battle".
>>495820569Before Elden Ring, I also thought Demons Souls and BB were the best. Dark Souls 1 had a special place in my heart because the way that the game sets the player up to sacrifice themselves when they Link the Fire is an extremely well done twist. However, Elden Ring is pretty damn complicated, but once you penetrate the obscurity of it, its a genuinely very cool game. I'd still put BB and DeS above it, but as the years have gone by I've really come to appreciate ER's lore and story.
>>495828812I'm pretty sure thats exactly what happened. He wasn't going to job - Malenia became frustrated, and then busted a nut on him after realizing she couldn't beat him conventionally.
>>495819386That makes sense>>495820629You know shit is serious when a mfer starts counting down in Latin.>>495820968>>495824789No argument here
>>495829809Yup, thus why she abandoned her pride. And also explains why Radahn was 'ok' with Caelid getting nuked and Freyja's arc in the DLC. FromSoft's storytelling was always vague by design but it was a little too vague here, it would've helped to have something to hint us in the right direction.
>>495820569I think the lore itself is fucking awesome, but it's definitely not told very well, even for Fromsoft. BB is still my favorite, and I even liked ds3's story/lore than most other fans seem to. I think in ER it's too spread out. A great example is the Golden Order Greatsword. One of the "legendary armaments" that belonged to Radagon himself, given to him as a wedding gift by Rennala when they got married (and looks just like the Dark Moon Greatsword that Ranni gives the player if you choose to marry her,) and where do we find it? In a random cave wielded by a nameless misbegotten. That's a major piece of the lore and we just find it in a cave being used by some mook.
>>495810836It's fine, ds1-3 and 30% of my ER time was with kb/m, DeS was my first controller-learning game. Left/Right mouse button for light/heavy, if your mouse has side buttons then use them for left hand actions(block/parry).Aiming a bow and unlocked spells/consumables is betterSuper snappy camera, helps with bosses that teleport or attack from out of sight, annoying dragons that attack the lockonNo analog movement but it can be mitigated with good camera use, i did the pivoting animation by mistake on kb/m more frequently>>495824889>>495826420eyes are a bit too big

>>495833283I have no experience in that level range, I saw people with 50 vig there, which seems like way too much to me, but I don't know what to expect.If you tell me how much vig I should have what's a good AR / average damage for this range, I'll figure out the rest
Would you be able to see past Melinas scared back and arm if she devoted her love to you?
>>49583199140 vigor, int and minimum requirements for the 2hander(magic or cold), everything else to taste like more mind for an extra cast or dex requirements for other weapons. Catalyst is useful in the left hand for slicer or star shower as openers.

Miquella has some insane grip strength. Imagine his hand job
I wonder if Bloody Helice would be better than Antspur for Mohg since I'm already proccing Rot with Breath and I don't think I'll be able to get a second procPlus he's a lot harder to kite out in p2
>>495842970Imagine playing Elden Ring
is there any shield better than others for parrying? I never tried but I kinda wanna learn
>>495843689Bucklers in every souls game including ERCarian Retaliation on any shield gives it a slightly longer parry than the Buckler and it only consumes FP if you parry a spell
>>495843689No, frame data for parryign is like decided by the skill, not the shield
Marika gooner please come back
>>495840301Metyr being GEQ would explain why Ranni is the only one with fingers still alive. She was actively working against Marika and the Golden Order while the others wanted to claim the other great runes and the whole ring for themselves while Ranni wanted to get rid of her rune and needed the fingerslayer blade to get away from her two fingers. Probably why the fingers in roundtable don't seem to be very helpful and the go silent "communing with the greater will," as soon as it's time to burn the Erdtree. The fingers were how the GEQ tried to supplant Marika and the Golden Order when outright war wasn't a viable option.
>>495842223I like how he makes a very slight noise when you tell him. Like he's saying "ohhh shiiiit..."
If you were writing a cutting game for Elden Ring, based partially around "buying" crutches during a boss like summons or physiks, would you weight the different uses differently or all just one? Also any reccomendations about what should count?It's difficult to balance it around both bosses and the dungeons too.
>>495845287a what?
>>495844601Sorry but that doesn't make any sense.We know GEQ was defeated by Maliketh, and Maliketh is the shadow-bound beast given to Marika by the Fingers, to ensure she as an Empyrean stayed loyal to them and therefore the Greater Will (although if we are to trust Ymir that was a load of bs because they lost communication with GW a long time ago).Why would a shadow-bound beast go against the mother of Fingers.
>>495842726There was a post on /v/ earlier saying Mohg was supposed to be Bayle through some pact with the formless mother because Bayle looks similar to Mohg, different from all the other dragons, and has the different colored lightning. I almost believe it.
>>495845462They're like drinking games but instead of drinking,I think you can figure out the rest from that
Don't care to be honest. Unless they pull a Farum Azula tornado dive alternate history shenanigan where Miquella can be married in-game.
>>495845536>Why would a shadow-bound beast go against the mother of Fingers.Just because your the mother of fingers doesn't mean the GW wouldn't pick another to carry his will.Our character is now GW will
>>495838680Marika
>>495845650You should fuck off from this general
>>495845901Why? It's a fun idea
>>495845536Cause she's playing everyone by pretending the fingers speak for the greater will. Who benefits by letting Maliketh beat her and become Marika's shadow who is loyal to the fingers?
>>495846010Self harm isn't fun you fucking retard, go talk to your friends/family.

>>495847049I know a Welshman named HuwHe's like the sweetest, most gentle person in the world
I don't want to see anymore Elden Ring related content unless they fix the DLC and even the base game while they're at it.Make it so the Tarnished travels back in time via Farum Azula by jumping in the tornado and ensure they arrive just in time to awaken Miquella's cock lust by fending off a tutorial boss sewer escapee Mohg and sympathizing with him, thereby showcasing the characteristic kindness and strength that the Tarnished displayed throughout the narrative of the base game.Then make Miquella the firekeeper equivalent for this new entry or DLC, with a full on marriage at the end and I'll finally give From my money again and actively support continuations to this IP.
>>495847957And make it possible to side with him.
>>495847049rebellion against Messmer isn't mentioned anywhere else either
>>495847267It helps calm you down, or when I get this awful weird bouts of an elated manic feeling where it gets hard to think and my tongue lulls around my mouth and I get really bitchy and rude and annoying to people, it helps me come back down from that
>>495847437He's not schizo
>>495847437I want to see how far he can take it. I think we are all surprised he got this far. Instead of Mr Smith Goes to Washington, it's Mr Kisaragi Goes to Bandai Namco
>>495848803Suffering upon you
>>495848517Huh. Can't say I understand why it would have that effect, but if it does that for you then I can understand why you'd do it. You may want to look for a different release. Like smoking, lmao
Are Rallanas swords worth anything? I wanna do a battle mage thingy
>>495849094You're about 30 years late to the game to say that now
>>495849409It's not a mage weapon, you'll focus on str/dex.
>>495849267Smoking is dangerous and harmful
>>495849687Well im INT so fking fix it
>>495849932Lol
>>495834395>They removed ranged ashes applying buffs a LONG time agooh fuck im retarded, my b
>>495836676this would have been the kino ending.
>>495849409yeah so you can do a few things here1. go str/ dexthis is straight forward. use consecutive attack talismans or some shit.2. go int / faihave both of your attack options with L2 do great damage. this is recommended because the L2+R2, the faith attack, got buffed and is better now.3. do a weird dex/ int thing and have a really crappy L2+R2. wouldnt recommend it to be honest.
>>495849752That's the joke...
>>495828812This would also mean that Radahn explicitly considers Malenia the winner of their battle, if he would only agree to go along with the side that proved their claim via strength. He wouldn't serve Mike otherwise.
>>495850979So it would be juat as bad or worse, right?
>>495851235I guess. Kinda hard to quantify, but yeah, it's just swapping one form of self harm for another
>>495853004
>>495844059I thought Golden Parry was the 2nd fastest behind buckler?
>>495852304You can get better about making sure to not send yourself to the hospital with cutting, you can't get better at not getting cancer, you can't learn it'd moceset like elden ring
>>495853004No, no, smoking is always shit, no matter how little. It's not like eating meat or chocolate, it's not required to live, it brings you literally nothing but harm.
Anyone got a link to someone who has legit good lore videos? Kinda wanna listen to them in the background as I fuck around until I get to the DLC.
>>495853727There's 0 good lore videos
>>495847049In the trailer we see Messmer fighting a dancing lion and then 3 dancing lions impaled on spears.Also divine beast tornado:>"The majority of divine beasts were gored and hung upon Messmer's spears, then burned in his flame. Those who witnessed the deed likened it to a funeral pyre for the tower itself"
femanon feet
>>495853727There literally, and not being annoying here, isn't any. Like the videos still aren't great but the closest is Zullie's and they're text, so you can't listen to them

>>495854886He's paid by Fromsoft to make shit up
>>495854886He makes things up, yeah. He "cites" his sources by flashing up items or having text that says am item's description but when you go to the item, it often has nothing to do with what he said.
Vaati's ok. He at least is very clear on what is pulled directly from game and what is his interpretation of it.
That hack also stole theories from /dsg/ many moons ago
Next game, please
>>495854976>>495855109...doesn't that goes against the very idea of making theories? You're meant to make theories, not totally invent crap.
>>495853573I guess. Again, I don't really have the same standard as most people. A cut could bleed more or less depending on the day of the week for me
>>495855626That doesn't matter when you get millions of views from slop
>>495855743I wish I had the courage to ignore my morality and make money off dumb people.
>>495854830>Tarnished Archaeologist.What did he mean by this?
>>495856208A famous quote of divine intervention masking the true actions of men, and how people will be willing to believe in faith over what is before their eyes
>>495854830ty, this is the kind of thing I was hoping for.
>>495856208Oh man, is that episode 18? The bomb about the braille reading finger being applied in a literal sense is so cool.
>>495855626Pays the billsI dont even mind theories, like I love theories but yeah he doesn't present them as that which sucks. But people want THE answer, and he says to give ti, soI actually wonder if like there's an audience for someone to make videos about like different theories/frameworks. Hm>>495855742No yeah I know, I did almost die oncenclose calls, and I know hemophilia makes it even more dangerous, I had a friend with that so she unfortunately couldn't, but smoking is bad for you
>>495855626It's more like stretching the descriptions to fit his theories, then continuing to build on those stretches. It would be like saying Rellana fought Radagon at some point because the Carian thrusting shield says she entered into ritual combat one time as a demonstration of fidelity to the Erdtree.
>>495856590You're welcome. His videos are sick.
>>495856856So kinda like that video game theory faggot who keeps pushing the idea that bad guys are actually good guys and that Mario is actually Hitler because of a cut sprite of him punching Yoshi or 2 seconds of him grinding his foot on Luigi's.
>>495857306Game theory (which doesn't make videos anymore btw) is pretty open that none of the things he says are actually canon, the literal catchphrase is "But that's just a theory... a game theory" at the end
>>495857687That doesn't keep him from trying to push ridiculous narrative, get offended when told they're stupid, have his sycophantic fans repeat them as gospel. That "it's just a theory" is just a defense for when people call him out on his bullshit.Kinda like retards will pretend they punch you, and when you remove your belt, they start whimpering and going "it was just a joke!!"
>>495854281they fucked up so hard that im convinced bayle was actually mohg being resurrected in the shadowlands and the coming mohgwyn dynasty was going to have mohg as the lord of dragons under miquella and godwyns age of compassion as mohgs reward for getting miquella to the shadowlands. otherwise i cant explain why bayle looks like mohg and every other drake dragon looks like greyoll and why miquellas compassionate nature just didnt exist when it came to mohg and throwing his soul away just so he can resurrect radahn in that body. mohgs soul was being reformed into a dragon, and godwyn was getting mohgs old body in return.
>>495856772Damn, she's got bad luck, cause it's uncommon for girls to have it. Don't feel too bad: If she needs injections for it, that's kinda like cutting, lol
>>495857942Thats fair, but I always figured that it was super tongue in cheek, but that might have been me being too self aware than what was actually meantThere was a someone I hated in school and had horse teeth that always used to do that until I just started smacking her in the back of the head when she did it and for some reason she never fought back and eventually stopped
>>495858391I doubt it fits the same thingWhy would you need injections for it? Wouldn't you want to AVOID getting stabbed?
>>495858472I dunno, I just saw him pushing the same narrative too often, and too often with clickbait titles, so I stopped assuming he was ironic and figured out he actually meant it.
>no ending where we accept his age of compassion They had one job and still fucked it up.
>>495858321Did you post this in a /v/ thread earlier? Cause I like it. That's what got me wondering about Mohg's wings>>495819045
>>495858832There's no compassion to accept
>>495858832Probably like the main issue is they didn't know what to do about the final boss if yoybdid
>>495707069>Melina definitely puts out cigarettes on her armsI used to do this
>>495858832But there is an ending where you accept his age of compassion
>>495859151I think most people did, I did back when I smoked
>>495859151I also asked someone to put their cigarettes out on me too, but they only did it once
>>495859151>>495859227>>495859325What's wrong with you people
>>495859227if most people in your friend group did this that is kind of fucked up and I would get along with them I think but it is undoubtedly abnormal
>>495859391self hatred, masochism, et al
>>495859391>>495859487How is the smoking itself not worse to you? That does infinitely more damage. If you actually cared about well being, you'd find more issue with that, not the superficial thing, you just don't like it because it hurts your aesthetics, that's performative

>>495859012I did yea its something that just screams rewrite to me. >same heart shaped face with the black horns>same red eyes>is somehow the father of all drakes but looks nothing like drakes and is smaller than both greyoll who is the mother of all drakes and the GIANT drake at the altar of communionto me miquellas plan was>use the body of another of godfreys kids>use the blood of the formless mother>use the divine gate for the souland thats how he'd get his godwyn. there are too many things that don't make sense in the dlc like the deathblight dancing lion, the gloam eyed queen being chosen by metyr which means maliketh was originally gurranq and was originally hers and thats why hes marikas half brother, mohgs purpose in miquellas plan, death itself being the main focus of the dlc with the spirit graves the grave birds the divine gate made of corpses yet no godwyn and no gloam eye, the putrescent knights entire existence. From does this which is why i am not surprised, but they really could have done so much more with what i perceive to be the original intent.
Why does everyone say the ending of the DLC was unsatisfying and anticlimactic, specifically the Miquella memory, when it's basically the exact same template as The Old Hunters which no one had a problem with?>Defeat boss>Interact with item on ground>Short cut scene plays that is supposed to convey an emotion rather than some lore insight>Fin
>>495860776Because the Old Hunter didn't have Lady Maria doing a 180° from how Gerhmann described her.Imagine if Gerhman described Lady Maria as calm, classy, and never reaising her voice, and when you meet her, she's essentially a Karen constantly shrieking in a high-pitched voice.
>>495860776There was no emotion in the Miquella cutscene
>>495860747>There's no blood dragonHMMMM
>>495860776fighting radahn was a let down. even if you were a fanboy the final boss of elden ring being radahn left a sour taste in many peoples mouths. its like in the old hunters if you didnt fight the crazy orphan you just fought young gehrman. now the funny thing is the orphan IS young gehrman and they got it right in how you pull that off.
>>495860776Because they assassinated Miquela's character.It's the same stupid "subversion of expectations" that ruined Game of Thrones. George is a fucking hack.
>>495819045I remember reading a theory that it leans into an existing real world theory of child abuse and how a child's psyche operates to comprehend and deal with trauma. If Marika is the traumatised child, Miquella represents her inner innocence whom she must protect with a winged warrior (Malenia, who grows wings mid fight) against another dark winged foe (Mohg, who grows wings mid fight). It's a serious stretch but the point remains that Mohg is a dark parallel to Malenia.
>>495860323Because you said it was abnormal?
>>495860776The Old Hunters was well executed. Simple as.
>somehow, radahn returned >lazy cutscene that tells you what you already know>can't even walk to the gate Should I put my hope into the mobile game or DLC 2
>>495861503This was dlc 1 and 2 mashed togetherGacha is our only hope
>>495861503sekiro 2 is next. let elden ring go nap with st trina
>>495861039Seeing the memory of the still nascent, childlike Miquella promising to make the world a gentler place after you just fucking killed him was a heart breaking moment for me desu and was the cherry on top of the DLC. It's a subjective issue if people were too hung up on their presumed headcanons being messed with or if they found Radahn a disappointing fight, but I think thematically and objectively it was an amazing finale.
>>495861274>Miquella represents her inner innocence whom she must protectI wonder how I can fit my headcanon that Marika enjoys slapping his rear so much into this.
>>495861174>mohg grows wings>bayle grows crucible energy wingshmmm
>>495861503>somehow, radahn returnedThe DLC spells out explicitly to you that Radahn is returning as Miquella's consort if you pay attention to Ansbach and Freyja's questline>lazy cutscene that tells you what you already knowSame as The Old Hunter's ending>can't even walk to the gateWhy would you want to, it's for gods not lowly Tarnished even if you are the Elden Lord
total demigod death
>>495689559>PVE horde mode that rewards valuable consumables and materials>we have reached the point where not only do fans have better ideas than FromSoft, they're actually able to mod them into the gameIt's over. It's over and I'm kneeling to LukeYui. Seamless is now the definitive way to play Elden Ring.
>>495860776The Old Hunters OST alone has more value than this shitshow of a game.
>>495708721It's nice to see how hard /our autist/ bounced back after his terrible trailer video. Good stuff.
>>495847049were they actual lions, or the dudes in costume?
>>495861859Idk, I never assumed that miquella would stay nice forever so like it wasn't that part thatvwas disappointing to me, I'm happy it resonated with you but like for me like it was just kind of a "I... already knew that." And I had already gotten the gist of like him abandoning everything so it didn't add anything new so I was just like OKI think it could've maybe done with a ludwig thing of having some final thing you can say to him or something, hutblike idk
>>495862479SOTE had a better OST too
>>495862812>MIDra
>>495862812Midra was one of the most fun bosses, but his ost was so boring, ehy post this image?
>>495862812lmao
>>495863301i liked how midra had a huge health pool cause all hes been doing for 1000 years is enduuuuuuuuuring
Why didn't they reuse the twin prince revive gimmick for the final boss?
>>495862990>>495863301>ehyMissed one.
>>495862812https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGqvqUHgCQUthis is my favorite song in the DLC.
>>495863661Ludwig > Any song from SOTE, but the SOTE OST as a whole still tops for me
>>495863301He said the best track in the DLC bar none
>>495863661I haven't even played BB, but Ludwig The Holy Blade still lives in my head. I often find myself whistling it without thinking. One of the best orchestral pieces ever put in a video game.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7n1qe2ZSTPA
>>495863946I hate your corpse
>>495864125That along with Life is Beautiful are songs I singhum to myself all the time and I'm afraid that someonell recognize them in public all the time
>>495858563Synthetic clotting factor to bring the levels closer to average. Apparently most people with it don't have to, but more severe cases have a lower baseline. I'm naturally at around 0.5% of what's considered average for someone without hemophilia. A regular dose of factor brings me up to 50% of the average for like 16 hours
>>495863979Absolutely, gives such a grand but sorrowful atmosphere. I wish Belurat itself was bigger though, despite it getting a whole second half a the end of the DLC.
>>495864196That's okay, you can't hate me any harder than I hate myself.
>>495864906I can
r8 my Midra music sync. https://youtu.be/iFRtKXap9iUI dunno if it was programmed in with Midra's moves but the pace of his attacks matching the tempo of the music made this boss so memorable for me. The clang of the shield is practically a metronome for the choir.
>>495864941I will absolutely take that as a challenge.
>>495865112https://youtu.be/74jfnTczdG4
>>495860776The frustrating part of this whole debacle is that there is a requisite understanding of Miquella as a character that is required to understand why the DLC portrayal of him was unfaithful in the first place.But I'd even go as far to argue that there is a lack of spiritual intelligence, or perhaps too great of a disconnect from people's true selves, to understand why the DLC is a travesty in the first place.Not only are you robbed of your agency and forced to fulfill a role that is forced upon the player when in the base game it was optional, but to complete the DLC you have to defeat the embodiment of innocence, purity and compassion that's been distorted to such an extent to fit the perverted masochistics fantasies of a Japanese game director.It's so infuriating that the moment you understand why it is is the moment you have a dark night of the soul that brings about a spiritual awakening.

>>495866030Moshi moshi
>>495865246We don't really know enough about his character before the dlc to know how innocent and pure he ever was in the first place
>>495865246That's what happens when you hire this fat fuck.
>>495866702He didn't touch the DLC
>>495866702Also, this. With Martin you're guaranteed to get characters that seem good doing bad stuff, and vice versa
>>495866696It was a common belief thanks to the Bewitching Branch that Miquella was a manipulator with malevolent intentions, so really the real twist was that he was good natured all along.
>>495866030/RUBICON III
>>495866829The same way he didn't touch the ending of the game of thrones show, right? lmao he wrote that shitshow and he wrote this shitshow as well. He will never finish that stupid book because everyone hated his ending.
>>495866702>>495867432As much as I dislike GRRM you've very blatantly just got a hateboner and are coming up with justifications for it after the fact
>>495867051That could be, too. Unfortunately we don't really get enough about his character to even know either way. It's why people continue to argue whether or not he's evil or just believes he knows best and can charm everyone into agreeing with him.
>>495867860He still owes me an apology.
>>495867860>just got a hatebonerYes. And I will hate on that fat fuck as much as I can.
>>495860776P1 cutscene: "Radahn will be my consort"Promised Consort RadahnP2 cutscene: "Radahn is my consort"Radahn Consort of MiquellaBoss remembrance: "Miquella wanted Radahn to be his consort"Boss weapon: "Radahn relies on the power of Miquella, of whom he is consort."Boss weapon skill: Promised ConsortBoss spell: "Radahn is Miquella's consort."Memory cutscene: "Radahn please be my consort" *abruptly cuts off*Fromslurpers WILL defend this
>>495867948Everyone is worried about the Game of Thrones books being finished while I'm over here wondering if Fire and Blood pt. 2 will ever come out
>only 3 bosses have a cutscene SLURP IT UP
>>495868240Don't hold your breath.
>>495868074I didn't understand what he wanted from Radahn until after seeing the memory and asking people here what it meant
>>495860776>final cutscene of the Elden Ring saga is a non-diegetic flashback (the only one in the game) using a "memory shard" (a device that shows up nowhere else) of a recycled character model cut from the base game in a featureless black room that doesn't exist in the game world, sitting still with no animations at all, viewed from behind so the lips don't have to be animated either, with the only other thing visible in the scene being a recycled chair asset from the main hub, while narration plays reasserting something we already knew>also you can't unveil the tree despite that happening in the trailer and can't walk through the Divine Gate because the god-slaying Tarnished can't do a pull-upthis sequence is so obviously unfinished that I'm surprised more people aren't calling it out, you can see the seams where content was torn out
>>495867051Why is Miquella such....... a faggot?
What is the Scadutree
>>495868676The Scadutree is the Scadu of the Erdtree.
>>495868751What does Erd mean
>>495868878Germanic for Earth.In Japanese it's just the "Golden Tree" while the Scadutree is just "Shadow Tree."

Miquella forcibly charmed both Malenia and Radahn. The only legitimate uncharmed fan of Miquella is Leda.
haven't got him yet but god DAMN did this feel good, glad i swapped to the helice
>>495874539Helice is such a fucking great weapon.
ded
blood grease or bloodflame blade?
>>495879664The answer is quite obvious
>>495879664Drawstring Blood Grease is faster to apply and doesn't require ARC/FTH.Bloodflame works best with weapons and skills that have lots of multihit.
>>49588015412fth/10arc is hardly a requirement and it doesn't decay as fast as blood grease
imagine Elden Ring, but the combat isn't so poorly thought out
>>495880378You also need to carry a catalyst, and swap to it to buff your weapon, and spend FP on it.And the duration isn't a problem as you can carry 30 of them at once, and craft more, with all materials for them being buyable for runes in unlimited amounts.>>495880638I prefer to imagine an Elden Ring where the matchmaking isn't so trash that the game feels dead with 40k players.

Where does the DS3 Firelink Shrine exist in relation to the "real world"? We know the remains of the real Firelink Shrine exists in the Untended Graves, and the one the Ashen One uses is the copy, but where is it? Is it in a parallel dimension?
