Yeah same boat unfortunately lol, however one way to think about is. That all that Prod is allowed to show us is only a tiny taste and the developers have bigger and more insane things in store for you once the game comes out. So I will watch the rest of the videos he's got coming.

My 7yo nephew just got into SoulsBorne games and it's good to know he can just summon and grind and finish it EZ.
I love how that first boss showed signs of fatigue towards the end of the fight, same with his horse. His attacks looked more labored in the end and looked a little slower. I can't wait to see more once the full game comes out in Feb.
I’m so moved by this, holy shit. Never before have we had environmental damage like cutting down trees in a from software game. The closest is the grass in the Ishiin fight. Never have we had coastlines with turtles, and birds, and wandering enemies, and a world so ALIVE, and it looks like it isn’t that casual friendly, . . . It’s GLORIOUS.
I came back because Prod made note of the better looking HUD in the actual release of the game, and there's a night and day difference. The Network Test HUD looks like those popsicles in the clear plastic wrappers lol
I've decided to come here to a video from the past Elden Ring-less age of history for a nostalgia trip. I remember how I felt at the time of the network test, all the hype. I was honestly afraid the game wouldn't hold up at the time, and I remember my shock when I first played it and saw it was even better than I expected. Good old times.
I feel like Blood Wolf and Enchanted Knight are going to be everyone's starter class. I know mine is definitely going to be Enchanted Knight because from what I've seen so far magic is so strong in this game.
I think these are just network test builds. Like in previous games network tests they had NPC based builds. In the original Dark Souls 1 network test the character classes were solair and lothric. So I doubt these will be the final starting classes.
I'm definitely gonna go with the Prophet. That cartwheel thingy and the bowl cut are seriously badass. Also now that we've got a mount, I want to play as a lance/hammer faith-knight.
When you were fighting that Giant (terrifying btw) I couldn't help but notice how awesome the cliffs in the distance looked and the sheer size of the landscape. Looking forward to playing this in the NT tomorrow
Y’all remember 2020 when we were shit talking how long this game was taking? And saying things alone the line of “Yo ever heard of the myth of Elden ring?”
This looks so damn good! Super pumped to get it when it comes out. I didnt get into the network test sadly but that's fine, I'll just keep watching whatever Prod can upload, haha
I'm 2/3's of the way through, genuinely and seriously contemplating whether or not to stop watching now and hold off any future videos. Which would mean avoiding the subreddit and possibly other media sources for the next 3 months. I dunno if I can do it...
Champion strikes me more as a barbarian in terms of looks/design really. No natural FP regen, that's troubling.

When he picked up "Oh, Flame". I heard him say it to the tune of that "Ohhhh yeahhhh" stock sound you hear a lot streamers use for their sub notification or whatever. You know the one.
