Everybody in here beating these bosses at a fast rate...definitely wasn't that way with sekiro or nioh or bloodbourne when they dropped...are we getting better or did yall hype up how difficult these bosses in elden ring really are ? :sas2:

I cleared Dark Souls 3
Sekiro
Demon Souls

for me after a while you start to see
Certain patterns and know what to do

but


Because you can explore and get into so much shyt before you face a major boss, I think it’s making the game easier


Like I came out of Limrick at 48 …. Not because I was trying to be OP but it’s just you keep exploring and the game just takes you places

Caelin unfortunately is going to probably mean I only play through this game one time. I get freaked out by consecutive small holes and that entire area is fukking with me.

If you go through the swamp there is a certain area in which you can get the meteorite staff and rock sling pretty much a few feet away. Demolishes enemies

Well, they weren't lying when they said that this is their most accessible game ever. It's not so much that all the bosses are easier, just that you have a load of different options on how to approach them or change up your approach.

Like, with the summons. I rarely use them and I've not gained the ability to power them up any, so during boss fights, half the time they're not even doing much damage to the bosses, but they're quite the diversion if I need to back off and heal. Which the usual tactics of just backing away to do it without them is fine for some fights, but you have some bosses that either have a shytload of minions helping them or they have unrelenting attack sequences. Times like those, the summons become crucial just to heal up and if the boss got a bunch of cheap tactics, then I have no shame in callling on the wolf pack to at least buy me some time.

Then, as it's been stated multiple times in here as well, you don't even have to be stuck on any particular boss like that if you don't want to, as you have so many other places you can go and be making some sort of progress.

We are getting better and also the game is much more accesible than the other souls games, the summons alone are a game changer and make the game much easier, another thing with the open world is that griding is tied with exploration so it isn't a chore anymore, I coun't beat the first boss, when exploring for like 15 hours, came back and washed him.

Absolutely shocked. Who would think a souls game would pull numbers like this brehs:mindblown:


Kinda happy for Fromsoft. They've come far.


Did big numbers in japan too. This is putting up Rockstar numbers, absolutely crazy to see. Well deserved
