    You can’t say anything bad about fromsoft, it gets a special kind of people to straight up insult someone just because they see someone saying “This is kinda repetitive” or “I like DS2”.

      Same was when servers were down year before for 8 months because of the exploit in coding. Guess what? Free pass. It happened during Return to Drangleic too, people had PVP builds ready to duke it at Iron Keep only for From to pull the plug. Funnies is, creators of Blue Sentinels had solution IN A WEEK!
      If this happened to any other company like EA, Ubisoft or Rockstar, people would flame them alive but because its Fromsoft with Genious Myazaki then nooo we shall be strawmen pulling every possible excuse.
      And with the animations I agree, they still reuse the same riposte animations for swords with downward stab to the ground since Demon Souls.

      @RanVor 9 місяців тому +2

      This is only a problem because there's no stat progression outside of damage and crit through mastery. I like inn items, but right now, food is pretty much mandatory after the first region because it's the only way to get more HP to offset the huge damage boosts the enemies get from Ordainment. With enemy speed, you at least have a few different ways to counter it (pro tip - daze is your friend). There's nothing you can do against +40% damage other than buying the best food available at every inn.
      Ordainment is a bad mechanic in need of a substantial rework in general, but adding some sort of stat progression system for the heroes would be a step in the right direction in my opinion.

    • @ExtremeMan10
      @ExtremeMan10 9 місяців тому +2

      @@RanVor wut? You can go through entire game without having any food. Ordained enemies are not even a problem as long as you know what they do and when. For instance Resesment buffs their damage plus fire, so if you can get proper resist and block tokens the ordained is no problem.
      Plus if we use your "rework" then the game would be too easy.

    • @RanVor

      @@ExtremeMan10 All Ordainments save for Denial give enemies +40% HP, +40% damage and +2 speed. The rest of the effects are fairly inconsequential.
      If my rework was implemented, the game would be too easy, you say? How curious, considering I haven't proposed any. I merely stated that I wish we had alternatives to inn items when it comes to increasing hero stats. (If I were to do so, however, I'd suggest an option to put mastery points into stats instead of skills - seems like a fair tradeoff to me.) I could easily flip this argument on you, though - if the enemy speed was reduced, you'd be able to kill them before they go, and the game would be too easy.
      I dislike Ordainment not because it's hard - it's not, outside of a few edge cases - but because it's random. The difficulty of encounters is very inconsistent because of it, particularly in region 2, where it's a coin toss whether a miniboss is a menace or a pushover. I don't even understand why Red Hook would go for something like that, it seems like a pain in the ass to balance. I'd much prefer a static buff to enemy stats based on how close to the Mountain you are.

      Oh my god you're right... That's insane! That means a single hit, if I did my math right, deals 24 damage. 6 of whatever DoT triggers first, then that DoT will give another 6, and then those two DoTs will give 12 combined next turn, provided all of them land. With the fact that it basically ignores Block (Since it's DoT damage, not frontloaded physical damage), and triggers more Death Armors due to being DoTs... I'd argue Malediction might be stronger than Burning Stars. At the very least on enemies with low res

    what do you think if resolute/meltdown wasn't random, but rather if you completed hero goals (or interact with other stuff in the world) you could like charge up 1 resolute (or more potentially), and so you are guaranteed to resolute if you have it. and having the task necessary to get there hard enough that they're not free, and easy enough that they're viable

    Elden Ring is one my favorite games that I will never recommend anyone to play. It's only for people who are die hard fanatics of the Souls genre, because nobody else can tolerate that game without resorting to going to Reddit and writing a small novel about how badly designed the game is. It's a game that wants you to play it backwards and also have in depth knowledge of all mechanics and where to find any weapon worth using. And if you don't get a build going before the first boss, you're gonna have a bad time learning his dubious moveset.
