>MC cant swim
bravo Miyazaki

Elden Ring truly is the nigger of Dark Souls

The water is made of the same substance as the pool in the middle of Vamp's boss room in MGS 2. There's a mistranslated datamined cut content item description that alludes to this.

Swimming with an armor. Anon....

>strip down
>still drop like a stone
>not even a drowning animation

Swimming would be a pointless thing to have as only Limgrave, Weeping Peninsula and the desert bit of Caelid have beaches as all other coasts are impassable cliffs

>>716477145 (OP)
They’re saving swimming for Nautical Souls

This is why Sekiro is the best souls game.

>Sekiro has swimming
>Elden Ring doesn't
why? they are the same engine

>>716479219
the map was initially drafted and made without swimming in mind, it's kind of a waste to add swimming and then have like 2 places to swim in

this is why Zelda games MOG soulsborne

Not even the 1st game desu you couldn't swim in Kings Field or Evergrace either you could in Chromehounds and Armored Core because big stompy robit

Sekiro has a single main weapon
Elden Ring has many weapons
They would have to come up with new animations for every weapon type to use while under water, for a gimmick that nobody would actually want play.

>all that cope
in Sekiro underwater fights werent a gimmick and why the fuck would i care if fromsoftware needs to make animations they recycled entire game from previous DS games maybe should make something new for once

>in Sekiro underwater fights werent a gimmick
Yes they were you fucking retard, there weren't even 10 underwater enemies in the entire game, and the only boss was a copypaste of a boss you fight multiple times on land.
Cry harder about no dogshit underwater fight where all you can do is press a single button to hit something and then swim away and repeat over and over again.

>>716477145 (OP)
You could swim in Sekiro and the game was worse for it
There's nothing interesting in swimming unless you are playing Subnautica

>>716481346
entire elden ring open world is a gimmick you faggot

Thank fucking God and fuck every dogshit game with swimming
Whew... We dodged a bullet elden chads

>>716479219
Sekiro is a shit game, so it naturally has shit unfun mechanics

>>716479219
Yes, I can't believe we have lost the riveting gameplay experience of swimming in circular motion around the Nth Headless boss fight and playing literal AssCreed tier hide-in-the-bushes stealth with giant fishes
Goddamn it Sekiro was such a dogshit game holy fuck

>>716482487
There's nothing to be filtered about.
Sekiri is simply a shit, poorly designed game
The fact they wastes dev time for fucking swimming is baffling
