stop being right pls
Can’t stop won’t stop! Lmaoo
if people are complaining that the game is too hard 'cause they refuse to use the tools in the game then congratulations, you played yourself.
People who don't use summons deserve to miss out on the epic summon that is Igon vs Bayle. Summons are fun. They are your travel homies. Some of the new summons are so fun to watch too.
CURSEEEE YOUU BAYLEEEEE
@@carlubeytubey for me that immortalized that fight. Anytime I use Igon's bow I can't help but smile. And with bows now viable I find my self using it quite a bit
@mercurialblonde that's how I feel about it too. It's nice to have summons that add to the story, even if it's just sprinkled in lore. The fact that it gets repetitive for ppl is kinda of just "it is what is" cause not dying is the players responsibility. I know I'm crazy and was not annoyed by that dope monolog (even tho he wasnt doing much dmg).
There's way too many arbitrary rules about what makes someone a 'true gamer' today. It's exhausting to try and keep up. My liberation happened when I played RE7 and RE8 on the easiest difficulty. I have no intention of following METAs or arbitrary rules ever again.
All that matters is you enjoy it ^^
i think most peoples problem is that in the souls games that liberation you had playing on the easiest difficulty is just not something within the grasp that they allow.
Yes you can summon but if you cant stay alive the summon and all souls games tie some form of consumable to summoning so if you are struggling its often not something you can beat your head against the wall of.
Yes strong spells exist that make the game a lot easier, but a lot of them are a fair ways into the game so if you are struggling already to get further it is not something that would help.
So what a lot of people are stuck with is being stuck on Re7 madhouse difficulty for the first time and the only help they are given is go get the M21 shotgun it makes it way easier, like ya it does but if you cant get there its not really a help. and a lot of these people never get a chance to have a similar experience with what you had with the soul series.
@@bloomleaf8310 Fantastic explanation and example, but that isn't the player base this video is talking about. I'm curious now what ratio of players leaving a bad review were players you speak about vs players that just refuse to use things like summons(aka just following arbitrary rules).
I'm not one of the players that is incapable of beating harder difficulties btw. RE7 and 8 on the easiest difficulty was just my first experience playing a game without putting arbitrary rules behind it. My wife wanted to watch and simply asked me to play on the easiest difficulty in order to make it enjoyable for her to watch. We had such a blast on those playthroughs. It completely blew my mind that games could be played for simply enjoyment and not all games needed to be even challenging.
I do still play harder difficulties or even soul-like games, but that RE7 and 8 experience just helped liberate me from those arbitrary rules many gamers put on themselves.
@@josephcarreon2341 i play only easy games on easy difficulty.
I waited for 2 years on this game. I will not rush through this. And also to the people who says this game is too hard and don't want to use the tools available to them? I put it this, we're both gonna break rocks, I will use a pick axe while the other uses a chisel because they don't want to use a pick axe because they want a challenge
I remember when people weren’t leveling vigor and we had to repeatedly tell them to level vigor if they want to stay alive longer. Now we have to tell them to collect the scadutree fragments. It really is just a cycle
60+ vigor and max blessings is the way
Some people in the Souls community baffle me.
They'll chastise you for using magic and summons saying you're cheesing Elden Ring.
Then a lot of those same people went samurai blood build cheese day 1 on Elden Ring.
It's really weird. There are a lot of challenge runners, and people who do minimal self imposed rules like no summoning. But, I've never once given a shit if someone else plays through casually and uses w/e.
I think a different loud group that likely haven't even done challenge runs are trying to put down other's by self imposing arbitrary rules so they can feel better about their gaming accomplishments.
It seems absurd to an extent. But when I watch people do a boss for the first time and they don't struggle in the same way I did I get an "itch" so to speak, and for some people that itch must be compelling them gatekeep.
Like yea it sucks that someone won't experience the game the same way as you if you wanted that, but like, that's the beauty of the game, especially ER where there's so much variety and ways to approach the game and it's many many utilities for combat.
@@BokkoTheBunny I love playing fantasy games with magic if I'm allowed to use it over melee builds, cause lets be honest, literally almost every game out there that isn't a shooter is mostly melee. IF a game lets me do cool magic shit like dark souls and elden ring, I'm gonna do the cool magic shit. it helps immerse me more in fantasy style games if I'm using magic.
Yep, they don’t use one cheese and walk over and use another. Crazy
@@Coeford what's funny is that beating a souls game with no cheese is like, the LEAST impressive video game challenge out there. These people are the bottom of the barrel of "hardcore gamers" as they love to tout. It explains why they're so insecure.
but tbh thats been the entire thing of the souls community forever everysingle game fromsoft releases they bitch and moan that its too hard while simultaneously making fun of journalists i dont think any of them are hard to begin with me and many other ninja gaiden/ nioh diehards are playing those games to relax ffs
also agree play however df u want if i feel like im stuck i summon im doing a hardcore run later down the line anyways
I'll give you a power metal mechanic. Rhapsody. You're welcome.
I played a tank shield greatsword build day one so i wasnt having issues with the dlc. It wasnt until i started to see videos on it that i noticed it was squishy dex and magic users having issues.
If you fight the dlc bosses with any summon for 2 seconds you can immediately tell they have been tuned to deal with summoning. They will straight up ignore the summon to hit you even if the summon is wailing on them. They straight up don’t cheese them like they did to bosses before. THEY WANT YOU TO USE THEM, hell they are DARING US to use summons.
And that's how I used ballistics on Bayle. I sat on one end while my mimic sat on the opposite side while igon sat in front of the gate. We shredded him with the power of 2nd amendment.
Im always down to fight a boss alone. Usually if an npc is tied to it I will use them. If a boss is really hard for me you though you better believe im coming back w/ mimic and myself and I are gonna kick their ass.
I have never cared at all how someone else beat a boss, I would not put my own ideals of a challenge on others. If the boss is easy for you, good for you, you fight it with your bare hands, I will be using the tools provided that I need. And I fight a boss until I learn it's movesets and prevail alone or with my ash spirit. Summoning other players is only on Ng+'s, and that's to quickly go through so I can help other players, or progressing with friends. Just do you, and keep your personal restrictions to yourself.
mechanic that mechanic this, the reason people dont use summons or some people dont use them is just for the satisfaction of beating the game without using that ONE mechanic everyone uses, it just makes you feel better than others in wich cases you are
That's fine, but don't complain because you chose to do a challenge run. The game wants you to use summons. There's literally quest story beats that you can only see through summoning
@@mercurialblonde my name is Kira yoshikage and i like hands
@@villum3289well prepare to run these hands
@@ghostface3140 i like dirt
@@mercurialblondeNah i’ll complain. Summoning a meatshield so you can spam r1 at the back of the boss and ignore mechanics is not fun. And fighting bosses with hp and dmg stats balanced for summons without summons is not fun either. 🤷♂️
I can’t wait for Purrodie to play Sekiro. That’ll be fun
One day xD Parrying is not my friend haha
@@purrodie neither was I, Sekiro fixed that lol
@@purrodie just gotta treat it like guitar hero with extra steps
There's nothing wrong with using summons or certain builds and weapons that lets you beat the game in a less frustrating way. Just cause someone decided to beat a boss the hardest way possible it doesn't mean that's how everyone should beat said boss. There are different play styles.
Is a farmer that grows his crops only using old style tools more skilled than someone using modern ones or vice versa? No. Their just better at using different tools than the other farmer. Yet they achieve the same goal.
Have fun and play your way because in the end that's all that matters.
Use whatever you want unless it’s an exploit that is not intended
Great take. One thing I want to add onto it is, Elden Ring is in its core, an RPG. People can play as different types of characters, enjoy different kinds of interactions and playstyles, or different aspects of the game. Some people may prefer their character being overpowered, or feeling the glory of being unmatched in the game versus all these epic bosses. Some may prefer a challenge, akin to completing trial after trial. And all of these are okay, it's YOUR game, YOU bought it, YOU get to play as you please. Objectively, the DLC is indeed harder than the base game(which imo hugely is due to how new it is, and how out of practice we are), so people who prefer seeing their characters do cool ass moves just to tickle the boss, then die to two bonks to the head from a random horn warrior may want to use summons to feel like they are once again "in character", and back to being the entity that rolls each boss easily. And that is most certainly okay.
And another thing, some people(myself included) just want to go through the DLC to experience the bosses for the first time, not for the challenge but for the aesthetics, the loot, the lore, etc, without dealing with them necessarily for hours on end while making the game more difficult than it is. Then come back to it later on another NG cycle or another character, and this time learn the fight better, take our time, maybe try out different builds.
Everyone plays differently. It's a game, let people enjoy it the way they want.
Exaacccctlyyy! What matters is how the person playing the game enjoys it, not how someone else enjoys it.
well I am not into power metal but most of the description for dad bod did count, so glad to hear dad bods are welcome XD
Dad bods are celebrated here!
I need more broken weapons from the dlc. I keep trying out the new weapons but ultimately go back to my base build when I get stuck because they're more OP
Time for me to hop back intro elden ring after not playing for 2 years while being in the middle of a newgame plus. I don't remember shit, but I look forward to learning how to play again. Wish me luck.
I wish you all the luck!
I like your cartoon. It was a good idea to be a b&w sketch, because it's unique.
Now we have Consort Radahn NERFED to the ground due to complaints from the Elden Ring community.
I meaaaaan if you beat him before the nerf
purrodie-shop.fourthwall.com/products/i-beat-radahn-before-the-nerf
LMFAO
Can confirm, they did not patch the crow. Using it as I watch this vid to build a fresh character to run the dlc. I did my first dlc run on a NG+2 character. It is not too hard. It was difficult, but not a single boss was harder for me than Malenia. If you beat the base game, giving up is the only thing stopping you from beating the dlc. It doesn't take any more skill.
The problem is people are way to aggressive in the boss fights. Way too eager to proc their consecutive hits buff and their status ailments. I play colossal and i can still find a chance to hit a charged r2 between combos.
I love the Torrent fighting. Then again, I use Mohg sacred spear, so great spear
I'll wait my judgement on the DLC until I beat the final boss >:(
GOOD LUCK hehe
If its too hard, summon like you did
That was a really good video. The elitist side of the Souls community should calm down.
Managed to defeat 4 bosses (black knight, dragon man, twin moon sword and Dancer Lion).
Also, I found a few of the Scadutree fragments and their Ashes equivalent (those things really help).
My biggest problem was the constant unable to summon thing I kept getting only in the dlc
That's because it's hot, and the sign is already used. Need a password and post to pull specific people. I had this throughout fromsoft games especially the old ones which were janky and had you go through hoops to summon.
I think they didn't expect you to use your summons. But they gave you the choice to do so. It's there if you wanna use it.
Ty based purrodie ❤
the game shouldn't funnel u into using summons tho (i dont use them tho and have beaten all dlc bosses fine tho)
I feel like I'm fighting the final boss for so long so many hours so many deaths. I was so happy when I finally beat it^^ i think i know how to chess the dlc now with the perfume botels. i won the DLC with a BLOODFIEND'S ARM because killing people with a torn of arm is metal^^
If the DLC is too hard, either come back to it later, put your pride to the side and use the summon system the gave GIVES YOU to make the game easier, or just bash your head against the boss until you beat the boss, it isn't that complicated guys lol. You paid for this game, don't let people tell you how the right way to play it is.
MY MIMIC IS ELDEN LORD!!!!!!
🎉Take Torrent to the Elden Beast
playing elden ring on pc while watching this
Funny thing is the video used to be called elden ring dlc is easy but people kept crying online about so he changed it.
HAHA did he really?
@@purrodie yeah he made a video about it on how it was so stupid he didn't wanna keep hearing it so he just changed it to hard even though he has many other series named that it's easy.
Honestly this DLC is not enjoyable for me, and I'm a big fromsoft fan, I like that it's hard but I hate how they increased the difficulty
I mainly hate the fact that bosses have narrow openings
Also the open world feels too empty to me so it's boring to traverse
Because the bosses are balanced around the fact that you can summon. So bosses have more moves and longer combos to hit multiple people.
Again, they give you ash fragments because they want you to summon
to be fair if youre watching someone play a souls game and theyre using magic and summoning and spirts and shit then its just not fun to watch and imo its probably not that fun to play either which does carry through the screen. I want to watch someone like kai struggle and finally win its a much more compelling viewing experience than the steamrolling cheese players. Also if you enjoy cheesing thats cool, but im still gonna make fun of you for not really playing the game, kinda like watching oppenheimer on your phone.
I mean that's your preference for who you want to watch just like it's their preference for how they want to play ^^
I understand that I'm not good enough to beat Elden ring. Not even to mention the DLC. I would however enjoy it if there were an easier difficulty option. I'm not going to bitch and complain that there is none, because I know that that's not common from this kind of game.
I would love to be able to play the game at a difficulty I'm comfortable with because I've heard how amazing it is and watching videos just isn't the same. Still not going to whine about it though...
U can use certain builds that are basically an "easy mode"
You can definitely find some OP builds out there that will make it easier! I recommend looking up “Lightning perfumer build” or “impenetrable thorns” they’re currently two very OP builds that maybe could help you enjoy it more ^^
I never played an soul like game but I feel like if they did have more difficulty options like an easy mode or a hard mode or just normal mode more people would be willing to play the game. I’m not a big fan of the just get good mentality or having to use a build that you don’t want to use just because you want to beat the game. I think you should be able to use whatever build you want. I just think people would be willing to play any type of game if they had more difficulty options and I have to suffer through the game being hard or using a build that they don’t want to use. I hear a lot of people saying that they like these type of games because when they beat the boss after trying so many times it gives him a rush and relief and I never really got that from any game most of the time when I beat the boss, that’s really hard in any game, it just makes me not wanna play the game even more just gives me a headache trying to beat it. I Don’t get relief from finishing a boss that is super hard just makes me hate the game more and wishes that there was difficulty options without having to change my style or things that I’m using just to beat something
Imma be real Elden ring is the easiest souls game. As long as your are exploring and leveling, it’s very easy. On my first run, no boss took me more than 3 tries. I promise it isn’t bad if you play it smart
@@GBelmont87 it’s good that it probably is one of the easier ones but I still probably would never play any souls game because I just don’t like playing really hard games I mainly play call of duty I used to play destiny but Some of the community got toxic and things kept on getting nerfed that was fun And things just kept on getting harder then it was and I was not feeling the power fantasy that I used to of spamming the abilities. But I feel like the older I get the more relaxing games I want to play. I’m not even that old but I just don’t wanna feel like I need to do something over and over again just to beat something or having to do with certain build just to do something.
Elden ring sucks. People only like it because other people do.
No, it's a good game, maybe you suck at it, like most of your opinions...
If i see you Dead
What, lmao
Or maybe you think it sucks just because everyone else likes it.
