I am currently running a Guts Cosplay build and have been having issues fat rolling for most the game. I also keep finding myself fighting bosses that can easily one shot me even with all my stats only used for Vigor,Strength and Endurance.
 
I'd rather have my semi linear experience than wondering around and hoping I'm in a general direction that won't get me instakilled by a boss.

That being said, if the world was smaller but packed more with unique shit, that might be the best of both worlds.
You want Dark Souls 3 essentially. I
It definitely felt like that one had a good mixture of labyrinthine castles, semi open forests, and deep dungeons
 
Apparently people are screaming in disgust that Fromsoft will now make future games styled like Elden Ring

Those people are wrong.
Yea no kidding I want more. This has easily slipped into my top five games of all time.

As soon as they announce the DLCs I'm all over that shit.
 
I was just discussing how Godfrey/Hoarah Loux is probably Placidusax since his kids have dragon mutations and "Chieftan of the Badlands" makes sense if the entire rest of the world is a dark frozen waste after the sun died in DS3, since only dragons could live there. Because he's a dragon, lord of the dragons...
...and someone pointed out that RADAGON is a terrible anagram of A DRAGON.

Radagon does have a secret identity, but he's not a dragon. Do the questline of the cleric bro from the round table to find out.

Everybody knows he's Marika. What that means and why she would do it, as well as why he's suggested to also be part giant and whether the gold thing was controlling him at times before he died are are all up in the air. All of this probably ties into the wars with the giants and dragons and origins of the Tarnished somehow.
 
Flame, Clease Me and the purge items will probably be your friends.

I didn’t realize Ranni’s mom was so close after neo Sif. I’m a lot closer to ungimping my character than I thought.

What weapons seem like they’re a little off-meta but still fun in pvp if Fromsoft gets around to tuning shit? I used Nameless King’s spear a lot in 3 because a lot of people didn’t seem to know when to roll through the weapon art. The madness spear might still be fun even if they fix dodged attacks applying it due to franzy shit synergizing pretty well. You can go in for the grab miracle of hit them with the sniper when frenzy procs for example; and you can’t spam shit without killing yourself.
Guardian Swordspear catches a lot of peeps off guard. It's got good AR and wide, sweeping R1s, and it takes ash infusions acceptably well. Godslayer GS is one I've seen a fair bit of success with, personally. It's a colossal, yes, but it scales with Dex and FTH, it swings about as fast as a bastard sword, and it's got a nice WA. Plays great with incantations backing it up.

Beat Melania. She was far less bullshit than I expected. She was pretty aggressive, and the healthsteal seemed like a cheap gimmick, but once I stopped dicking around with spells and just went Moonveil only she was a lot more fun. Easily one of my top five bosses.
 
Finished Elden Ring. Radagon was difficult, especially because he hits like a troon on a women’s wrestling team. But I got him eventually. The Elden Beast wasn’t hard though. Also got Age of Stars ending. Anyway, great game. I’ll probably play again when (if) dlc releases.
 
So I've got a base PS4 and pretty shit internet, should I even bother getting this right now?
it works fine for consoles I wouldn't worry about it.

Anyways the giants being up to more shenanigans seems to have people connecting them to previous giants including the cut giant that actually had a face in Dark Souls 2.
 
Just finished the Dragonbarrow Caves, this crap where you have a massive enemy in a small space needs to fucking stop already. Other than that though; the area was fine.

I don't mind the small space fights but I wish more (any) of them had like a moat with a railing or something instead of an actual cave where the camera gets trapped against the walls.
 
What is the best way to deal with banished knights as a Samurai because I have no clue to effectively deal with the fuckers

Guard counters if you have a decent shield will break their poise fast. Moderately difficult to back stab fish but you can dodge through their long combos sneak one in. Various ashes of war may help a lot too.
 
It's funny to me something that happened in the game...
In a couple of different post regarding boss difficulty earlier in this thread I mentioned how Margit was harder than Godrick and Radahn for me and in both cases jokes about how Margit should become the Elden Lord. Well, yesterday I got to Morgott the Omen King and I guess I was on the money, haha! That was pretty surprising, but his early apperance and difficulty makes sense now.
