    “Please fromsoft nerf bleed, noobs are abusing it in PVP!” Been hearing that since dark souls 1. It was lightning then. Dark souls 2 it was dark.

      @@chlama they can, but in PvP if you play like this you are regarded as a no skill player. It's just the truth. This takes all skill away from the game. When you run bleed, it is no longer a souls game. It's not hard, just like every other action-rpg game out right now. Souls games are SUPPOSED to be hard. That is their intended design. The whole selling point is a gaming experience that doesn't feel half-baked or shallow. Overcoming adversity feels good. But bleed builds just take away all challenge, skill, or feeling of overcoming adversity. Believe or not, when everything is easy, things can get boring very quickly. Or at least they should, but people have fun pressing one button for hours on end, watching things get disintegrated. I have fun doing that sometimes too, but I don't like to just shut my brain off and sit on Elden Ring for 3+ hours a day mashing the left trigger on my controller. If I am going to play Elden Ring, I am going to PLAY Elden Ring. Rivers of Blood or instant bleed builds make the game on fun for people that are looking for honest fights. I should not die in ONE BUTTON PRESS with almost 2k health just because someone decided to come into my world with two seppuku scavenger's swords, 80 arcane, and a running powerstance attack. It's just bad balancing.
