So we're clear. I did Elden ring at SL1. I know the game pretty damn well all things considering. I have never parried a single boss in Elden ring. Not even one once. Never will. There's no point when you can dodge everything and it takes less time to learn and gets you through the game fine.
It's no just a matter of size but content. Exploration is completely random, you waste 1 hour combing a tomb to find a doube handed axe that has nothing to do with your mage build. Or you kill the 10th gaol enemy to give a magical wand to your barbarian. There's no clue whatsoever of whats to be found, while traditional DS level-based format gave you thematic levels with linked items, so the "mage" level would give you mage items, etc. This keeps more or less true in Elden's legacy dungeons but everywhere else is big random map full of random shit.
Dark Souls 3 has a better ending than Elden Ring, if nothing else:

I can just.. not be where the attack is and that's much easier than learning parry timing and having to use a specific piece of equipment. The game forcing you to use specific strategies is bullshit when no other souls game has ever done that.
I've seen illusionary wall's videos. I know exactly how this stuff works. In the real world you can't rely on stance breaking to happen. You hit stuff and some times it staggers. You hit stuff and some times it goes into a move with hyper armour before you connect.
The strategy of summoning spirits and spamming the shit out of weapon arts is what the game is designed around.
Are you serious bro? Why would you kill enemies that look like mini bosses in a game with exclusive loot for mini boss kills?
Oh I know. I'm not the kind of fag that would associate with adult play pretend. I like robots.You can select an avatar of a halfling, such as this one under D&D Art - Clyde Caldwell:
That bear did not take just a couple of hits. I hadn't found much use for sleep when I played, because... you can just run away from giant lobsters and bears without putting them to sleep...
I think it's easier to stand on a ledge he can't hit you on and shoot him to death with arrows. Which is the optimal way to beat him if you're a sad sack of shit who thinks an enemy like this belongs in a souls game. DMC? Fine. Souls? Absolutely fucking not and I refuse to fight enemies like him the same with the Corvians.
I only use medium roll and I never needed the pendant to beat manus. Get good kid, learn to space your rolls trololololol. That's the argument right? Git gud if your solution isn't my solution?
Elden Ring is Dark souls the same way Dark souls is Demon's souls. A change of name doesn't mean shit when it's the same engine and half the enemies and items are the exact same.
Excuse me, did you just assume my first sexual encounter with a bear is the same as yours? I will have you know I didn't find Patches cave until after I reached Atlus and I ran into several bears who fisted me pretty hard in mist wood. You know that area you get to if you follow a main road in the newbie area. The game is BAD at teaching you not to fight bears when you see a giant bear defending a staircase you can get down without hitting him and can't get out of without hitting him.
You do realize every From game has bullshit right? I would love for you to defend the hit boxes in some of this games grabs. A problem From has had since at least Dark souls. The big demonic snake thing with a skull head who's name I can't recall right now can grab you even if you dodge clear out of the actual animation. There's also Radagon having specific moves line up that force you to take damage. I've beaten every souls game except Bloodborne at SL1 and I'm very aware of what the games can and can't do. I've parried bosses and used specific boss weakness items to get through. None of it amounts to shit because the games are not designed to let you use those tools in any reasonable way. You equip the biggest numbers you can to keep the roll you want and then hit enemies until they die and that's it. I'm doing a Crossbow only run of Dark souls 1 right now and I genuinely am having a very similar experience to my usual melee only runs because the game is extremely basic and the only reason they're special is the exploration. Which Elden ring does worst of any souls game.
Correct. Figuring out the narrow window using a specific item so you can get a free critical hit isn't interesting.
Then you're retarded. Gundyr is really easy to roll to avoid and easy enough to parry. If you find parrying easier than rolling then you seriously have mental issues. Roll windows are significantly larger and less punishing than taking a hit from a bad parry is. They're also timed to fit with melee attacks, so you get 1-2 hits and have to roll again. Bosses are synced up to these windows and are not synced to parries at all.
I see, you're autistic. Have you tried playing Euro truck sim instead?
Can you poison him? He's a ghost so I assume not. Some of us aren't wiki whores like SOMEONE writing an essay length post right now.
How well do great shields work for blocking in wombo combo land of Elden ring? In previous games your stamina wouldn't stick it out and they would poise break you and rape your butthole for it. I've always been a shield user and as soon as a boss appears it's time to stop blocking til they're dead.
You're got so assblasted by Liberal that you keep seeing him behind every corner?
