From Software Elden Ring - From Software's new game with writing by GRRM

[Elttharion]

Doesn't seem any more weird or gay than some of the shit you'd find in Dark Souls, or a lot of real world mythology for that matter. It's a world filled with strange demi-god incestuous relationships. I don't see what the big deal is. It's a fucked up, stagnant, decaying setting and this is par for the course.

I don't think real world mythology has many gay femboy gods who every other god specifically the male ones lust after. It's pretty obvious gay pandering and fetish baiting. Gwyndolin made no sense either and was also dumb fetish shit but at least the entire story didn't revolve around him.

The gay incestous pedhophilic romance is a huge win for the LGTV community.

Funny how I saw someone say on twitter that its actually okay because Miquella is a thousand years old demigod.

Edit: If they go with the Miquella is actually using his powers to control his sister, Mohg, Rahdan, etc it can be 'ok' as he would be the major villain and an asshole. Still a huge cliche and a big disapointment since they could have gone wild with the boss design but they are instead giving us a reskin. I am still hoping it works like this. I was personally expecting a Miquella turns into Femto boss fight but I think that would be too much, even for Memezaki.

Is the relationship somehow portrayed as a positive thing?

The game definitely glorifies Miquella and tries to make him an Uwu Cute Femboy archetype.

My takaway from the Elden Ring lore was that all of the demi-gods were pretty much terrible.

Rahdan was kind of a cool dude. Cared for his men, etc. I also liked that in his boss fight you are actually putting a great champion and leader out of his misery and giving him a dignified death. Pulling him back from the dead just to make him simp over his femboy brother is kinda retarded, imho.

Yep, they shat on Radahn. From a hero to a pedo.

Sounds very european tbh

The "table" Miquella is in always looked like a pelvic bone to me, I thought they were going to pull some kind of "unborn" type of lore with xim

As usual too much hype leads to disappointment

Love that the only criticism is "the game is to fucking long already" lol

 

[AlwaysBrotoMen]

Looks like there are PC stability issues in the dlc.

It seems that DLC can take even 100h to beat

Less than 40 hours until the release.

You mean aside from Loki shapeshifting and fucking everything? And Zeus? And those are just the obvious ones. Just because it didn't make it into the disney version doesn't mean ancient mythology wasn't full of perverts.

The other criticism is "yeah it's a bit uneven but hey, compared to the shit out there it's amazing".

I spotted a couple making that argument if you scroll down to the lowest rated reviews lmao.

 

[S.H.O.D.A.N.]

My takaway from the Elden Ring lore was that all of the demi-gods were pretty much terrible.

Nah, the writing pushed Miquella as the saviour type pretty hard.

 

[Lyric Suite]

Fuckin hell, I just read you gotta make it all the way to Mohg in order to access the DLC.

I'm pretty sure we've known that since Elden Ring first released.

Nothing concrete, just these bits from the interview

“I wouldn't necessarily say that open world is going to become the new base or foundation or standard of the company. As I kind of hinted in earlier responses, we have a lot of game directors and designers who are growing, so we'd love to keep an open mind in terms of the types of games that we develop. So, of course, I can't really say anything at this exact moment, but perhaps when you see future announcements from From Software you'll look back at this point and think, "Ah, that's what he meant."”

“On an individual level, however, the sense of overcoming challenges, and the dark fantasy world setting is something I will always have, but I don't necessarily think that will always be the direction of the company because others might feel differently.”

There's a new Gamer Informer interview, too, where he talks about Sekiro being a “big turning point”.

Bloodborne on PC.
Sekiro 2.

You could've stopped at the bolded part.

 

[Lyre Mors]

As of right now, the Steam page for Shadow of the Erdtree says it's releasing in 18 (19) hours. According to the official global release chart put out by Fromsoft, that is false and we're actually looking at a PC release that is 5 hours beyond that, so actually 23 (24) hours away. Just a heads up for people who are watching that Steam countdown and possibly planning their day around it.

Where's my mother fuckin preload at?

Nvm it's already installed. Cool beans.

Mythology and society at large wasn't nearly as accepting of sex as modern (leftist) historians claim it was.

Even if it was there's a big difference between a fickle king of the gods lusting after mortal women and a literal anime femboy who every exclusively male god wants to bang.

 

[Damned Registrations]

Yes, across thousands of years and an entire continent, everyone agreed on what kinds of sex were okay. Sounds plausible.

You're trying to set some moral high bar with a mythology where people regularly fucked animals, raped eachother, and killed their own children to spite their cheating spouses. The idea that a femboy and anyone they fucked would be too taboo to create a myth about is beyond absurd.

 

[Cat Headed Eagle]

Don't tell him about greek culture, the roman orgies, the catholic priests that owned brothels (which caused the necessity to call a vatican council to ban such happenings)... and that's just Europe.
