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 ?
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.
