    Can you beat Elden Ring while over the max equip load? Wearing too much gear puts you in the "overloaded" state which prevents running, dodging, and jumping. Uh oh.

      Lines like that always give me flashbacks to fighting EX deviants in Monster Hunter GU, with people stuffing their pockets with any type of full heal (or materials for them) that they could get simply because when you get hit you're either dead or hanging on by a thread anyways.

      I did my first ever playthrough of dark souls completely without rolling cause I couldn't get the timing right after trying for barely 5 minutes. I had a shield that absorbed all physical damage anyway so i just played it while blocking everything. Only way later I realised how much EASIER dark souls got by just rolling

    Fun fact: Torrent is 100% not necessary to complete the game, because you can't use him while you're invaded. So From had to design every area to be reachable on foot as well as on horseback. This is why there are long ladders right next to spiritsprings in Mt. Gelmir that lead to the same spots.

      FromSoft has always been good with level design and what we’re seeing in Elden Ring is a holdover from their other games.
      I’ve been going through Dark Souls 3 after beating ER and if you can see it in the level, you can get there. The problem is is usually figuring out where you need to go.

      Maybe it is true that you don't need to USE Torrent to finish the game, but acquiring him IS 100% necessary to complete the game without glitching/zipping. You need to visit the roundtable at least once to enter Leyndell and you can't do that without receiving Torrent first.

    This is so much more than just a meme run, it perfectly demonstrates the best part of the game.
    It's a series of seemingly impossible obstacles that you need to adapt to by exploring and experimenting.
    You can choose to beat your head against a boss with your current setup for hours or adapt your gear and strategy, the difficulty is truly optional.

      Being clever and being able to problem solve are different than tackling the architypical souls challenges.

Trying to do this fight with like a typical medium load weapon based dex character for instance is a much different challenge and is much more of the typical souls expected challenge.

    FYI Pineapple, on Radahn you can skip the ranged phase by going backwards away from him at the start, normally it takes three taps of the sprint on Torrent, so in your run it be a little bit of a walk; the skip despawns Radahn, and getting closer again makes him re-appear, only in his sword state.

    I’ve never played this game but it’s quite wild the replay factor in it and all the different builds and co concepts in it. Wild stuff.

    “This encounter is a whole ass boss fight” yeah as someone who is playing ER as their first true fromsoftware game, I really did think that giant was a boss and was so disappointed when I got to the grace point and he just respawned backed in.

      God yes lol. I spent like 1 hour trying to beat him, because it didn't even occured to me to rest at nearby grace, because why would i need it? I just keep dying and respawning here!

      I've played all the FromSoft games and I was pretty surprised he was just a regular enemy as well. I had assumed he was at least a miniboss who wouldn't come back.
      Very eye-opening for what Elden Ring considered a "standard" obstacle

      It came from the message system in the game, that only works is pre-made building blocks. Something like "Beware of Dog", "Hole Ahead", "Sun ahead, but fire", as examples.
      But the blocks are somewhat limited on the different kinds of creatures, so in most cases we use Dog for any creature. Because of that, we even call them dogs, much to the confusion of others.
      I'm terrible at explaining, but I hope it somewhat makes sense

    • @Edamori

      It honestly reminds me of RuneScape in a way. People lock themselves to regions or to ridiculous restrictions on what they can do and still attempt to complete some of the toughest content in the game. Watching videos like this reminds me of Settled and his Morytania locked account, or Verf and his Karamja locked account, where they use obscure and ancient content to attempt to break boundaries and complete objectives. Elden Ring gives me the same vibe, and it's incredible

    • @Chaosrain112
      @Chaosrain112 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Elden Ring managed to achieve this for its PvE content. PvP is another story of course but I've never been into it very much, so it's not a concern for me. But still, not to undermine what they achieved for the (main) game, it's incredible. There feel like so many games where players are just shoehorned into using specific things and the experience feels very manufactured. Elden Ring has so many facets for story telling, all the way down to how your character overcomes adversity. In this case, you stare straight at them, walk forward at them intimidatingly, and then beat the shit out of them.

    • @TE72GOD

      @@Chaosrain112 I feel like a large part of the PvP feeling is FromSoft's underwhelming servers. I have always despised Dark Souls PvP in general. But in this game, I actually enjoy when it happens. I get to just hurl a lightning bolt and one shot all the Katana folk and its so fulfilling.

    Fun fact: you don’t actually need to climb the tree and use a bow to kill commander O’Neil. Instead, you can sneak up behind him and use poison mist, as it won’t aggro them when cast. In fact, any enemy you can sneak behind, you can use this strategy on. (i.e. draconic tree sentinel or one of the two tree sentinels in Altus plateau)
