If a game requires you to look up online for "hidden" secrets and mechanics that are not explained in the game itself, I'm sorry but I'm not playing it
I wont even pirate it.

During my PS2 days I never ever wasted my time on forums or gamesfaq. The game should leave the studio as a complete package.
If game requires internet "tips" and is tied to a sign in online connection, it means the game has bad design

git gud

This game doesn’t require any of that.

Literal children have beaten ER blind. Even women (actual females, not troons)

You're admitting you're lesser than literal women and children. Embarrassing.

Compared to other From Soft games, Elden Ring's quest design is actually very forgiving. Mostly just requiring you to explore and talk to NPCs as you see them, and even if you miss parts of a questline you can usually just pick it up at the next step

I didn't look up anything online?

If it's required to look those secrets up, how were they found to put the information online in the first place?
