There are no games to fucking play..
Time to play Elden Ring yet again

>>718417704 (OP)
the elden ring... imagine

>>718417704 (OP)
There's Nightreign™

>>718417829
I like it but I'm waiting until the DLC with hopefully more new main bosses, and also new maps
Hopefully they will support this game with new content for a few years

>>718417704 (OP)
i'd rather watch paint dry

>want to play with dlc weapons
>have to wait till the tail end of the game and can only use it for 2-3 bosses

>>718417986
You can reach the DLC really fast if you know what you're doing

>>718417829
i like everything about night reign except the 50 minute long run past everything phase

>>718417986
Beat Margit
Beat Godrick
Get teleported to Volcano Manor and beat Rykard
Do Varre's quest to get to Mohg
Beat Radahn
Do DLC

>>718419721
>No penis
Is this a fucking joke? You stupid fuck

there are hundreds of worthwhile games, you just lack curiosity and seek familiarity

>>718422373
Oh look, it's the aggressive faggot bit to avoid being shit on for being a faggot. kys

>>718422440
I've played all games
There are simply no more

>>718422534
I am NOT gay

>>718417986
They should make a system where you can play the game again but you keep all your stuff and the challenge scales to accommodate for this.

>>718417704 (OP)
This game assraped this whole board and there is simply no coming back

>>718417764
imagine the odour

>>718417986
Just get a mod to get early access to the DLC.
Most DLC weapons and spells are far from OP, there's no reason that you should have to kill Radahn and Mohg to use the Milady or Knights Lightning Spear.
>>718422632
Anything past NG+1 scaling is mostly unfun because flat defenses get too high.

>>718422675
It simply is the zenith currently of all videogames.
It out Zelda's Zelda. It out Fantasy's FF. It out does every other souls game, every action game, ever rpg.

Now that nighreign shows from are perfected the action part and want to develop systems more, we're going to get skilltrees, gem crafting and item loot rarity + everything elden ring in their next game.

Whatever Miyazaki does next will be the game that finally destroys Diablo 2 as "The" 'Forever' game.

>>718423462
>ever rpg.
Elden Ring is still a shitty RPG.
Good action game, bad RPG.
The puzzles in particular bother me. Because there are flashes of cleverness involved, but so often its extremely droll.
Alexander needing you to use an oil pot to make him slippery so he can escape a hole in the ground is fun and uses combat mechanics in a basic but immersive way. Something that in another title wouldn't stand out, but in this game does because interactivity between the player and the environment via mechanics tends to be so rare. It is basically the only time that the game acknowledges the physics of its weapons or items.
RPGs as a genre are known for pioneering this interactivity and some games have really mastered it. But Elden Ring is far behind others for a game that ostensibly asks you to act like an adventurer. Instead the hyper focus is on combat within very specific and preset contexts, and everything else is secondary.

>>718417986
Don't worry, all the DLC weapons are complete horse shit

>>718423793
Where does this sentiment that RPGs need puzzles come from? If you want puzzles then play Zelda or something, RPGs are better without them.

>>718418093
>beat Rykard
Why?

>>718423292
NO PUBES??? not my maiden

>>718424107
Bait

>>718424149
Most RPGs ever have had puzzles as a major part of them, and environmental activity in particular is a lauded aspect of puzzle solving past that point.
Elden Ring has lots of puzzles in it. Navigating the DLC is a huge puzzle at times, even. Other examples are the mage towers, getting the loot in dungeons, solving some of the more vague quest lines, etc.

>>718418093
For the DLC, you only have to beat Radahn and Mohg to get access.
Radahn is pretty hard, so you'll want to clear at least a good amount of the early game just for the levels and weapon upgrades.
Mohg can be neutered with the tear you get from his bloody finger NPC invasion in Altus.
It isn't literally the hardest thing ever, but it is a pretty annoying run up to a DLC that scales independently from the base game, so you don't necessarily have to be at end-game strength to play around.

Becum the Elden Lord.

>>718419245
elden mid would've been better with the ds3 filter

>>718425712
what is it with ds3babs and grey dogshit?

I'm eternally asspained about lightning being split between dex and faith with zero crossover. You can use both but then your build is shit

>>718425791
It's called aesthetics, you'll get it once you grow old enough to drop pokémon

You know the game is good when it generates kino meta jokes like let me solo her
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KjJCDkE1zZo
literally the last time we had this was giant dad in DS1, which was from's greatest work at that point
none of the dogshit games inbetween had kino like this

>>718425108
>Radahn is pretty hard, so you'll want to clear at least a good amount of the early game just for the levels and weapon upgrades.
lol

>>718425803
What annoys me is how every lightning weapon is locked until you get to Leyndell or somewhere around it, even the ashes so you can't even infuse anything with lightning early on. The closest thing you can do is the skip to get Bolt of Gransax early and even if you manage to do it as it's a pain you still need 40 fucking dex to use it.

>>718425108
radahn is not hard, and either way you should summon every single npc to get the full kino experience

>>718426060
i summoned him and he died to her

>>718426467
if it wasn't filmed, in doesn't count.

Im a fellow from junkie but here are some games I recommend that have held my attention recently: Witchfire, Drova, and No Rest for the Wicked.

>>718427181
all shit

>>718427181
no rest for the wicked looks great but i'm not buying early access garbage
i'll wait until the full game is out

>>718423462
>Now that nighreign shows from are perfected the action part
Jeet, get thee gone!

>>718417986
well just cheat them in, or use the rando tool to do a DLC start, or DLC starting classes
on console you can still just arrange for drops in limgrave

Which sick fuck at Fromsoft put this boss here? The area is too damn small and there's a rot lake covering 80% of it, its almost impossible to kill without cheesing

>>718429757
if you still have trouble with ulcerated tree avatars at that point that's on you

>>718429959
Its not the enemy thats the problem its the area they put it in, way too small for a boss this aggressive, if you try staying on the sides it will just fling you off and you fall to your death

>>718430119
Just tank the rot, if your dps is any good he'll die within like 3-5 flasks if you don't get hit, assuming you leveled vigor. Admitedly on RL1 you have very little room because of the flat damage component of rot but even that isn't that big of a deal if you optimise for damage.
If you still have trouble just use a shield to block the explosion, everything else is a pretty simple dodge

>>718429757
By that time you should treat those like the sandbags they are.

>>718429757
>he failed the vigor check
No rotten sword insignia for you
