I loved this fight
fucking loathed the final boss, not even because of it's difficulty but how limiting attack times you can useand aeo spam is used. All for that to lead to no new ending or reward besides a 5 second cutscene for some faggots saying something we already knew. Worst ending for a dlc

You could always just use summons instead of resorting to cheat engine. It makes it a little easier, but also adds a layer of unpredictability to things that can be its own challenge. You can also try changing your build if one play style doesn't feel like it's working. Mesmer is kinda Like Godskin Duo in that he's way fucking easier if you're bringing a big bonk weapon that can actually stagger him.

Deflecting tear is given to you right at the start of the DLC for a reason, all the bosses were designed to account for it. It's baffling to me how people will play the DLC and refuse to change their build with any of the new stuff they find. The Blade of Mercy talisman that's also in that first ruin right next to the deflecting tear golem is also super good. Just from that very first point of interest you get really good tools for defense and offense that are helpful for the entire rest of the DLC.

They're kinda similar. The only difference with Midra is that he's more like a turret while Mesmer is more like an autistic kid trying to be a ninja.
Mesmer you benefit from locking on, while Midra is easier if you run around him.

Why has this genre become like this? It felt nice being able to curb-stomp bosses if you prepped and built right, made the world feel a bit more grounded where you'd eat shit for mistakes, but enemies would too. Now it's just a shittier DMC clone without the style meter.

Miyazaki has a serious decision making problem since Artorias of the Abuss. From has a habit of making quest and then cutting them in the last moment despite having full scripting and voice acting done(like it was the case with the Artorias DLC) which then leads to plotholes being plugged up by shitty fan theories that decry the cut content as non-canon when clearly it makes more sense than whatever retarded make-believe story ecelebs paddle.

No. The model itself is clunky and moves around like a doll, the cutscenes look rushed and have none the cool factor of prior DLC bosses including Midra, the post-battle cutscene in particular reeks of "was made by an intern 2 days before the deadline".

Miquella doesn't need any saving from Godwyn. Godwyn was actually the victim of Miquella's heinous assassination attempt and Miquella is just a tragic ruthless character in general.

Luckily the Gold of the Golden Order can't kill him and he can resurrect one day as one of the surrogate cadavers

The entire lore was better, the idea that Miquella's plans ALWAYS ended in failure and it all led up to his ultimate master keikaku to be foiled by some random deranged pedo sibling he probably didin't even remember existed just deciding "y'know, he looks female enough" and kidnapping him to kickstart his insane wannabe golden order was just beautifully ironic
Now instead you get the awesome narrative of "Miquella let himself be raped to death which somehow leads into the land of shadows because ???????????????"

No plot was cut in Artorias of the Abyss and no plot was cut in Shadow of the Erdtree. There's actually zero evidence that in any Miyazaki game the story changes in any shape or form. The chopping block is reserved for some pieces of lore text or some dialogue bits, or some unfinished weapons and enemy types.
The only game that we actually know changes for the plot is Dark Souls 2 and even those are minimal

No one believes this.
He has no balance.
Good bosses are balanced around a flaw or, if good at everything, are limited so that they're not tiresome.
Malenia can wreck face, but she's easily staggered. Godfrey is relentless and tanky, but has lots of slow AOE attacks he locks into that give you time to regroup.
Radahn has too much HP and keeps up too much pressure the entire time so that you really just don't get a flow in the fight. The only decent way to match him is to stack armor and shields and status effects and just ignore the entire maneuver and positioning aspect, because even if you could dodge roll everything, it just isn't fun for how long it'd last.

I get the need for challenge but overall the community is way too obsessed with difficulty.
They keep comparing themselves to challenge runners that beat the game on level1 hitless and think that this is the default way to play for some reason.

It's not at all about the player's mobility, it's about the bosses not being relentlessly aggressive and doing 50 hit combos, they don't follow up every second attack with AOE explosions, don't have perfect laser tracking and stupid delayed attacks.

I think just changing animations isn't gonna do much. They have to either lean more into the action aspect overall or lean more into the RPG aspect and be way more transparent about elemental weaknesses and shit and play around more with it.
The latter is super underused in modern souls. DeS made it very prominent but in ER I can only think of the death birds being weak to holy.
For most enemies it's oftentimes only a small weakness/resitance but also very hard to figure it out. Sometimes random enemies have like 20% magic resist or some shit.
Or like most of ER base game bosses getting 40% holy resist and the player has no good way of finding this out.

The damage formula of Dark Souls 3 onwards heavily penalizes wrong elements through resistance and split damage reduction, something that didn't matter much before

Why so mad, buddy? Clearly you're the one who got socialised on here if this is your first reaction.

>through resistance and split damage reduction,
Split damage has been a thing since DaS and has nothing to do with my point, idiot. The retarded split damage formula makes elemental weapons fucking bad and is part of the problem if anything. A normal longsword deals 100 physical damage that only gets reduced once.
A fire longsword deals 50/50 phys/fire and ends up dealing less damage than the normal physical one because of the way resistances are calculated.
It's especially noticable with shit like fire arrows that straight up deal worse damage.

That's now how it works, retarded armchair theorycrafting subhuman.
A Fire Longsword will have 100 physical and 100 fire damage, and will be worse against enemies that have good physical and fire damage resistance but have far more AR against the giant tree enemy because half portion of the AR with lower damage resistance. It actually nerfs players that mindlessly use 1 weapon and rewards knowing the enemy.
Dark Souls 1 had fucked up defense system and didn't matter much.

AR means jack shit because of the split damage formula you dumb retard.
Now add that actually good elemental damage scales off of FTH/INT in most cases anyway so a STR/DEX/Qualiy build will always be gimping their damage for trying to go elemental.
Just load up the game and try it out on the godrick soldiers at the gatefront ruins.

Just like most bosses have DR against all physical. Having less resistance to a particular type of damage counts as a relative weakness. It's pretty typical for RPGs to give bosses blanket DR against all damage.

By this point you've seen items like "Lord of Blood's Exultation" and all of his minions, which are critically weak to bleed (and often accidentally kill each other with it) but get buffed by bleed (even their own). So you should kind of realize that the faction's gimmick is that you can do a lot of damage with it but they get stronger.

There's no sense in denying it. Even if you believe in consort Radahn always being in the lore, it's entirely possible that in the original base game Miquella would have given up on him and picked the player instead (presumably as part of the original questline with Malenia).

My two biggest issues with Dark Souls 2 are:
-Every area feels disconnected. Objects in the distance aren't even close to where they are in the game world. Lighting and weather changes radically from area to area. Massive parts of the world like forests and fields disappear from area to area. It goes from a game with a real sense of place and immersion (DS1) to being a completely disconnected clusterfuck. (Elden Ring does not have this issue as everything in the world is real and not just a bunch of facades)
-Your character is incredibly stiff feeling. Physics are completely broken. (Elden Ring is the smoothest the games have felt outside of maybe Sekiro)

Miquella discarding her lover (because that's how I actually interpreted their relationship, platonic and pure love that trascends everything that happened), is part of the theme of ascension requiring sacrifice of his spiritual body, fate, great rune and the most precious thing, and makes sense that he would do that in the Realm of Shadow.

You can actually see the candlestands all over the Haligtree, also seen in the Realm of Shadow, and to the sides of the statue of Miquella holding a caduceus staff

The immaturity curse is not related to his plan and reborn Miquella is still prebuscent. Miquella's eternal youthness is what allows him to be an Empyrean despite being male.

The idea that the Haligtree Miquella's Order and the idea of rebirthing all created under his newfound Grace with the cocoons found in the Haligtree was "dropped" as things went sideways is also completely unfounded. Miquella's great rune and spells portray the Haligtree even in the DLC

I don't think Miquella's ascension required all that self-sacrifice, it was something he felt he had to do to atone for Marika's sins and have the next age be unburdened by them.
Not just on a symbolic level, but also likely a tangible one. Marika accumulated too many curses from slain enemies that affected her lineage. This is a nuance that was unfortunately lost in the English version, but the JP description for Miquella's rune mentions causality instead of original sin, the same term as the Golden Order law/spell that triggers automatic retaliation.

There's no "sins". It's called sin. English is the main language of the game and the description is correct. Marika's sin is how she usurped grace and tainted it, forming Gold and Shadow. Miquella's need to cleanse itself from Marika's Gold was not atonement, it was literally a cleansing. All Miquella's crosses are golden and reborn Miquella is a creature of light

No, in the Japanese version it used the term for empyrean too. It was patched out in both languages.
https://kamikouryaku.net/eldenring/?守護霊
The most likely reason this occurred is that in the game files ALL hornsent enemies are labeled with the Japanese term for empyreans, 神人 (divine person/god-person). The Grandam was mistakenly(?) given this in actual text before it was changed to horn-person (角人) like the hornsent are called in actual dialogue and items.
Assuming the Grandam part was just a mistake, it does still raise the question of why the hornsent are designated that internally. Is it just a development codename with no bearing on the lore, or does being influenced at birth by the Crucible actually make the hornsent in touch with the divine like the people chosen by the Two Fingers?

That's literally the entire point of the divine beasts bro. They are so in tune with the divine they become mediums for godly beings. The sculpted dancers are like empty vessels for a divine force to control them. It's not them dancing but a being from another realm puppeteer them. That's why when you see under the cloth most of the time the people under it seem to levitate and bounce in air with no support.

Empyreans are beings able to possess multiple spirits within and manifest those spirits outside their body in different forms, and the Hornsent and Omen are naturally resonant of wraiths due to possessing horns growth caused by the Crucible currents. The Lamenter, Mohg and Morgott can even make clones of themselves and Mohg becomes a vessel. The divine is generally tied to merging spirits in a single vessel and the hexing tower invocations are tied to spirit-calling

Empyrean Grandam is correct, and every single Hornsent can be an "Empyrean" by literally absorbing spirits like the Horned Warriors.

>>Outer gods are simply Kami in japanese
That's false. They're called outer gods (外なる神) in Japanese too. You can predict what results you'll see if you google that. The GW being above the (ER) outer gods is consistent.

The exact relationship the Greater Will has with ER outer gods is ambiguous, but I think how the head piece representing it raises Arc together with Int says a lot.
As shown with the Elden Beast what the GW embodies is order (and in turn the frenzy flame outer god of chaos opposes it), but order comes in different forms like rot, and Marika's order wasn't the first one endorsed.
This actually has a lot to do with why the GW is so cold, and the differences between order and gold that are mentioned or alluded to.
