>>502286973You can see Rya's nipple
>>502287146good night sweetie
whens the next dlc and ther sequel and the next patch please god dont make me play factorio dlc instead
>>502286760Impaling thrust vs piercing fang For PVEthat shit looks simple but deals loadsa poise damage, and fast
>>502288558you can literally play anything besides factoriotry out psychopomp
They look like baki characters
>>502293264Not lore accurate. Rellana is an incel simp for messmer.
Malenia.Miquella.
The end of SOTE is a Shinto summoning ritual.Mohg = yoshiribo (the gid's vessel)Radahn = kannushi (divine lord of ceremonies), and a lesser kami (ascended after death)Divinity Gates = Shinto shrine
>>502287146why do you self insert as Rya instead of the other eldie girls?
>>502296818The end of SOTE is a Shinto summoning ritual. In the original Japanese:Mohg = yoshiribo (the god's vessel)Radahn = kannushi (divine lord of ceremonies), and a lesser kami (ascended after death due to martial frats in life like Tokugawa and Hachiman; had to die a worthy death that wouldn't dishonor him to ascend, and the only one capable of delivering such a death is the mighty undefeated Malenia)Divinity Gates = Shinto shrine (a summoning point for kami, indicated by the shimenawa ropes wrapped around them)Miquella = o-kami (a greater spirit, a god, summoned by the lord master of ceremonies); also a miko (a shrine maiden acting as a conduit for a kami, exactly the word used to describe Marika's kin)Also Godfrey is a shintai (yoshiribo inhabited by a kami), Serosh is another lesser kami, and their whole dynamic plus Hoarah Loux's sumo moves and name change is a reference to a yokozuna, a sumo wrestler at the top of Japan's power pyramid who goes by a name other than his birth name and is held to be a living shintai.
>>502297151This also contextualizes Malenia. By choice she's a great warrior serving what she sees as a worthy cause, by ancestry she's another miko like her mom destined to serve as conduit for a kami - in this case the spirit of the Scarlet Rot - and rejects her fate. Miquella and Marika only accepted their own fates as such in warped states of mind out of misguided desires to change the world for the better. She's not a "true god" in the boss fight and never will be one if you return her needle and dew because a true god wouldn't have a body like she does. They'd be a pure spirit and need a yoshiribo to empower to act in the world. This is also why Miquella's clearly noncorpoereal form fades away after Mohg's body is killed despite him not having his own health bar like Lothric did - he isn't dead, his anchoring point in the realm of the mortals is severed (Shinto holds that kami inhabit their own uncorrupted realm), so he's pulled back beyond the gate despite trying to hold on to Mohgdahn.Marika herself as a miko acting as a vessel of the kami that is the Elden Beast, but later ascended to kami status herself. But in the process she was no longer the same person. Marika the God and Marika the Shaman are distinct entities.
>>502297151>>502297527You'll summon HIM, be carefulFun lore though. I wish stuff like this made it through the usual shoddy from translations
>>502297072What?
>>502297682It's not an issue of translations. It seems to mostly just be cultural language - it doesn't matter what translation you use, most people outside of Japan (and maybe even in Japan?) wouldn't inherently connect terms like "kami" or "yoshiribo" or "miko" to specific concepts, nor would they realize the significance of the ropes on the gates. It'd be like if someone who never heard of Christianity was shown that episode of the Simpsons where Homer meets God and goes to Hell with Ned Flanders as Satan. To them that'd just be pure noise, but to someone with a vague idea of what Christianity is, they'd get the implicit storytelling; no one would have to even tell the viewer that the fiery underground place of damned souls is Hell.
>>502297682Once again, like always, the issue has never been with the translation stuff, I think its interesting
>>502298201The job of the localizer in the translation team though is, in theory, to act as the person who knows those things and is there to help convey the meaning of those things as accurately as possible. From's international releases have definitely gotten better with time but they still fundamentally lack in many glaring ways, and I think it's a valid criticism that as much as the company has grown they still can't seem to provide a translation that conveys everything intended in a game where 90% of the story is told through flavor text.I love FS, but I also want them to do better, especially when they charge 70 bucks for the base game and 40 for the DLC
>>502299192the main issue imho is that most of the people finding work on projects like that though are effectively the lowest possible biddersthey'll shell out for one or two moderately competent regulars, like ryan morris, and then supplement him with random xitter tards trying to break into the industry for pocket lintwhich is also how you get egregious issues that get patched out later if you're lucky, like straight up lying about the effects of items
>>502298186The question is pretty clear.
>>502300906Makes no sense
what do I need to do before breaking the great rune in the dlc?is it only giving the black syrup to thiollier? is there anything else?
>cretins still spamming chatgpt nonsense
How did Miquella get that far inside enir elim?
>>502286973I'm glad you love your mom.
>>502304820Diplomacy.
Howdy /erg/.Is the Mohgposter still around? i need a bunch of bulky Mohg pictures. Last time i read about him (around 7 months ago...) he was saying that these Mohg pictures were the vast majority from Xitter. But i can't really find them, he had a loooot of these but i only see like 1. The more the better. Would be nice to dump all of them in something like a drive folder and then share the link.For what do i need them? huh... artistical purposes.
>>502305793Do you think if you milked him it would be burning blood still?
>>502305972No. I think it would be milk but brimstone flavoured.Wait, if you milked him from where?
>>502305793>mohgposterI believe there were of two of them but they're both gone. Big sad. Had a sexy mohg piece saved somewhere but i think I lost it
>>502305793He evaporated when the DLC dropped and revealed Mohg was just brainwashed the entire time.
>>502306102oops! My finger slipped
>>502305793>>502307034
does golden parry still have the same parry frames as carian retaliation?
>>502286973none of them are sluts.Have sex
>>502286760Idk how to describe it but the Elden Ring reminds me more of the Antiquity while Dark Souls is more Medieval-ishDoes that make sense?
>>502310357MhmmLleyndell feels a lot more like Rome even if it like has like a lot less of the aesthetics and actually even has more of a medieval aesthetics than Dark Souls
dead and abandoned 'g
>>502316979Like Miquella's ass.
Which spirit ashes are both useful and honest?
>>502317467Mimic Tear.Spirit Jellyfish.
>>502317467Jolan and AnnaSpirit JellyfishFinlanHildeHuguesFlorissaxNepheli LouxTherolina
>>502317467Stormhawk deen is a bit too strong, but since it's airborne and thus doesn't clutter the battlefield it feels good to use
>>502319272Stormhawk tuah!
I finally read your review of SotE, bloganon, and I disagree with both your assumptions and conclusions
good morning /erg/
>>502324863>morning
>>502324926yes, it is 8:18 in the morning where I live
>>502324992good morning then :)
>>502302705You can get a bunch of rare ansbach dialogue if you go to scadu view, belurats, the cerulean coast, and a few other miquellan crosses before the great rune breaks.
I'm retarded and still on my first playground almost 3 years later. I just beat Rennala. Wondering if there's anything I should do before heading to the next dungeon. I'm a Vagabond and my build is mainly strength and dex.
>>502328520level vigor
>>502328726My vigor is 20 rn. Or 19. What should I get it to?
>>502329213endgame vig ideally is around 60, maybe a bit less. level vigor when you feel you need more of it
>>502329213get it to 40 around leyndell, and 60 as you progress in the mountaintopsyou probably have no idea what those places are, but you'll figure it out
>>502320845based. same here
test
Death's Poker and Helphen's Steeple should have been int/faith weapons.
>>502310565Leyndell is Constantinople at its peak
>>502309351Yes. Unfortunately it uses FP for every parry, even if it misses. For that I prefer carian retaliation
are there any characters that stick out in the game? like ds1 chester, the asian dude in bb, etc?maybe that could give us a hint.
>>502333101For me, Dryleaf Dane really sticks out. He's a silent monk in a world full of knights.
>>502333101>asian dude in bbwho?
>>502333281Yamamura. His attire is straight up Wolf's from Sekiro + a hat because everyone wears hats in Yharnham. He has the scarf and everything
>>502333101nope, this is the last souls game
>>502333281>>502333101>dessatsuki>ds1chester, shiva, ninja bodyguard>ds2alonne>ds3sword master>bbyamamura, technically father gascoigne as well but its more subtle >sekiroROBERTTTTTTTT's dad>eryura? eleonora uses two katanas stuck together into a twinblade, and then there's a couple npcs invaders who are squid ppl
>>502333101Dane and Spellmachinist dude (items and description only, but still)
Can you get every Elden Ring achievement without starting NG+?
>>502332515Yeah. They should have. But Fromsoft seemingly HATE build cohesion.Case and point: lightning damage.>half of lightning damage is pure FTH >half of lightning damage is pure DEX>the new Death Knight axe weapons are STR FTH split>the only split DEX FTH lightning weapon in the game is a fucking perfume bottle
>>502320845>>502331896just a reminder he's a shill for israel and a jew cock slurper because he believes they don't want him dead unlike muslims i have never seen someone this retarded and gullible before so you shouldn't take anything what he says serious anyway
>>502335310sote is kinda mid desu, I hope fromsoft doesn't make another elden ring game.why does everyone hate israel, aren't they just the other side of the coin of nazis
on the one hand the weapon is ass, on the other hand you can just keep bullying people with it
>>502336764It's a good finished/chip tool yeah. Also the scattershot ass is good
>>502336553shalom
>>502335310lmfao wow point taken. what a fag. never gonna take that guy seriously ever
bloganon is CANCELLED for being a zogbot. you have no place in the lands between
name a more depressing weapon (you can't)
>>502334041Sekiro is obviously the Pot Nobles>>502334970On multiple characters, yeah. Really it's just the different endings. Everything else can be done in a single run.
this bow is busted
>>502339318Zog zog!
>>502340068what the fuck? how is that damage even possible?also whats so good about ansbach's bow anyways? i always see people raving about it
>>502340173it has an ash that's actually good
>>502340173weapon art is broken
>>502342231Oh look, the only reason to make a quality build
>>502342382no, not even, it's pure dex.
>>502342706>>502342231my god, what a fucking slaughter
>>502342902You can stop answering your own posts now.
>>502342706>D/D scalingThe only dex part of it is the requirement
>>502343305I mean the build I am using. so it's not even max damage
>>502297151>>502297527tl;dr: the Gate of Divinity is, very straightforwardly and literally, just a torii. What Marika's doing in the trailer is putting the shimenawa on the torii as part of her ritual to beckon a kami from the divine world of the spirits.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torii>A torii (Japanese: 鳥居, [to.ɾi.i]) is a traditional Japanese gate most commonly found at the entrance of or within a Shinto shrine, where it symbolically marks the transition from the mundane to the sacred,[1] and a spot where kami are welcomed and thought to travel through.[2]>Structurally, the simplest is the shime torii or chūren torii (注連鳥居) (see illustration below).[note 2] Probably one of the oldest types of torii, it consists of two posts with a sacred rope called shimenawa tied between them.[14]And Miquella and Marika were performing a kagura:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kagura>Originally called kamukura/kamikura (神座), kagura began as sacred dances performed at the Imperial court by shrine maidens (miko) who were supposedly descendants of Ame-no-Uzume [goddess of the dawn]. During the performance, the shrine maidens usually utilize a channeling device for god such as masks and spears to imitate the trance. With the kagura music that has the power to summon the gods, the miko start to dance to transform themselves into the representation of the gods and receive messages as well as blessings from the deities.[1]
>>502346521>literally, just a toriiNo, it isn't "literally" a torii.
>>502346648Yes, it is literally a torii. It's a divine gate with ropes wrapped around it that acts as the entrance point to the divine world of spirits which are literally kami and which can be summoned to a vessel that's literally a yorishiro by a literal miko. This isn't even subtext, it's just text, it's what the game states plainly.It's like looking at a Gothic cathedral with crucifixes everywhere where someone referred to as a bishop is saying the Lord's Prayer and ends it with a person invocation asking for a blessing from the one creator god, in the same story where another person called a deacon defeats an undead monster by sprinkling blessed water on it, and then concluding "that isn't a Catholic Church."
>>502347112It doesn't look like a torii, it isn't made out of wood and painted red, ergo it's not "literally" a torii. Learn what that word means.
>>502347205>It doesn't look like a torii, it isn't made out of woodIt looks exactly like one and the Gate of Divinity is clearly made out of wood. It looks like a husk of a tree. Torii also don't have to be painted red.
>>502347503>It looks exactly like oneNo.
The Theatre of the Divine Beast also has shimenawa everywhere, unsurprising considering the Divine Beast is another kami summoned into a vessel. Yorishiro is also the term used to describe the Horned Warriors on the Horned Warrior Ashes. They're mega strong (even by the standards of the TLB which already runs on the premise that everyone can get inhumanly strong by cultivating ki) because they're vessels for kami.塔の守護者たる重装の戦士の霊体神降ろしにより、人ならぬ膂力を得大曲剣を振るい、それに角を降ろす塔では、戦士も、その武器も、依り代なのだ
>>502348136
>>502347863The most basic form of torii is just "two posts with a sacred rope called shimenawa tied between them", meant to resemble a gate.It's two posts referred to as a gate, it has ropes on it, and in the trailer we see Marika put a rope between the two posts. It's a torii.
From would make a ridiculous amount of money if they released a modding kit for this game. The only thing stopping this game from having infinite replayability like skyrim or bg3 is the shitty modding.
Will any of the new From projects avoid appealing to casuals?
>>502348452just generate some more chalice dungeons, boyo
>>502350112No, because the endgame of any dev is to sell games.
>>502305793i love you
Every time I leave my room and have a bad day I dream about breaking Madison's ribcage apart with a billhook or a butcher's cleaver. The thought soothes me. I love you maddy.
>>502333101Dryleaf Dane is clearly a tease for the next game
>>502353185please do not bully our mentally ill femanon

>>502359093this is terriblecan you post your tits in varre cosplay again
>>502359093Is this fucking Far Cry?
>>502359331Yup.
>>502359435>>502359262
>>502359631No.
>>502359435Alas, I have to agree with >>502359262 over here. I guess you're not horny enough?
>>502353185You dont have to say that but I Loeb you too
>>502359729pretty please?
>>502359262>>502359772I think you're mistaking me for someone else.I just wanted to shitpost with webms.
Went through Messmer's fight again. It's SO meticulous, every detail is in place, everything, it's exactly as cinematic as in trailer, maybe even better. What the fuck did they mean with Radahn fight, did they really assign it for intern just to laugh at us.
>>502360332Yeah, I figured. This anonymity thing is a hassle sometimes.
>>502361450Heh, that's how 4chan is. I like it, personally. Make sure site doesn't become a circlejerk like so forums I've been on.
>>502360516Radahn? What Radahn?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfxT0hDXyZc
>>502359262Please do, Maddy. For your adoring fans - you know who I mean.
>>502362092Anonymity has its own brand of shittiness, but let's not get into it. >>502360516Radahn is truly a dogshit fight. Who the fuck thinks it's fun to run away from the boss while it does a massive AoE attack?
>>502359865Really??
>>502362647I love her too but she's never said that she loves me except once by accident
>>502360516Pretty sure they ran out of time and started working on Radahn like 1 month before the DLC came out
>>502363278When, why
>>502363278That's because you don't threaten her with violent enough properly enough
>>502286760Anvil hammer is great but it takes too much space on my damn screen! So I'm not gonna use it!
>>502368081This potato isn't edible.
>>502368081your mistake
Sorry if this is off-topic, but I haven't been keeping up with his threads: whatever happened to that schizo who sued FromSoft claiming they hid a secret world in Elden Ring? Did he ever make anymore threads after the court date? Was he just laughed out of court?
>>502373358Idk but he’s been crawling around 4chan and visiting dsg years before elden ring came out. I’m sure his unmedicated ass is going to pop up again. Have you watched his streams before? It’s terrifying. He tries to do made up glitches over and over again for hours.
>>502329213The very first thing I do is level Vig to 50damage stats matter way less than Vig because the game will often just give you straight up HP checks and rapes you if you don't meet the bar
>>502348136>>502346521This is interesting. Good posts, anon
>>502360332I wish we'd get a new turok game, preferably one that didn't suckI'd even take a remaster of turok evolutioni don't know why conan fighting crocodiles on the beach made me think of that
>>502360516SOTE, as several anons have mentioned in these halls before was supposed to be two DLC's, not onethe first DLC was going to be for messmer and the second for miquellatime and budgeting reasons caused the two to be merged into one, which is why everything from a lore perspective is disjointed, and why the QA on some of the bosses is nonexistant
>>502368081Sometimes I wish From's games took after Final Fantasy, and told us that there is hope after all the suffering.But then again, what's more poetic, to keep fighting while knowing there's hope, or to keep fighting while not knowing if there's any?>>502377841I wish Conan Exiles was less grindy. I get that you can lower ressources costs to make it simpler for one player, but it feels like cheating.
>>502378053thats basically supposed to be the goldchud ending, though.
>>502378268>replace oppressive Golden Order by more idealistic Golden OrderIt's like replacing the Marines Malevolent by the Black Templars.
Working on this. I think it's looking good but it's also missing something...
I am never listening to Steam reviews again.Just finished Shadow of the Erdtree and I genuinely don't understand the whining about difficulty. Sure it's maybe a bit more difficult than the original game, but the power scaling from the Scadutree fragments is pretty generous and the bosses are just the usual T&E. Even the final boss wasn't that bad, though probably about as hard as Malenia or Maliketh.
>>502373358Was schedules for September then they has a hearing and got it moves to january
>>502379972>plays the game in the most overnerfed state>actually game's is not hard guys!!!
>
>>502379972It makes more sense once you consider the fact that most people don't have a huge amount of times to play games and it's more of a smaller side fun thing to do rather than like their main hobby
>>502362647>>502381408
>>502381558Yeah
>>502379972Current patch has almost every enemy in the DLC at 2/3rds damage and effective HP. That is a massive difficulty drop.This is on top of patching broken hitboxes and other jank from when the DLC dropped.
>>502368081This is why being an intCHAD is so rewarding.I get to have the haima havel AND I dont have to stare at some big hunk of metal filling up a quarter of my screenspace at all times

>>502385509
I've been using the Godslayer Greatsword up to the snowy areas, and I don't have the DLC. Should I switch to a different weapon soon to take on the endgame areas?
>>502387847No, From games have horizontal weapon progression, not vertical. A weapon you'll get at the very end may very well be worse than the beginner broadsword. Vast majority of weapons can handle everything in the game just fine, Godslayer GS in particular is a strong A tier.
