    Also works on whittling down large enemies that can't pass through narrow hallways and doors. On my first playthrough I used every single 'cheese' I stumbled upon and this spell in particular quite often

    Yeah, that's a sure-fire way of making things as tedious as possible. You don't need to clear all enemies on the way to the boss, just run through them if you already killed them once already

    KickStarter Kingdom Come: Deliverance - Dan Vavra's medieval chad simulator

    I won the tournament as Hans's champion way back when I hadn't done the monastery quest at least. I had forgotten about that until Black Peter ambushed me and gave me some neat armor upgrades. Stumbled into Marius accidentally too while returning to the ruins of Pribyslavitz, had no idea at...

    All right, I managed to finish the main story. Excellent choice & consequence that affects quest outcomes and follow-up questlines. Notable examples of this are the Talmberg poacher and quarry heist. There's also occasionally a way to resolve questlines with skill checks (other than the three...

    Unless you count the Omen, which closely resemble the Oni from Japanese folklore in their design. Not demons in an Abrahamic sense though, but another example of Elden Ring blending western and eastern elements.

    I want a catacomb that combines the horse carriage traps and the absolutely cancer jumping puzzle on the way to the Three Fingers.

    Might as well, it's not much harder than normal. Only major thing is that you need to pay attention to saving because autosave is off.

    1eyedking What's wrong with min-maxing?

    Some posters here seem to define minmaxing as a thing where you intentionally look up the absolutely most objectively optimal builds and strategies. But I don't think recognizing that a warrior needs some STR equals minmaxing. Overall afaik it's a term that applies more to multiplayer games...

    Just make everything related to moneymaking more strongly tied to Speech or some kind of mercantile skill. Age of Decadence had that whole merchant class, more games should take note of that. In addition to knight Henry and thief Henry, we need a proper groschen-grabbing happy merchant Henry...

    Yeah it's strange, I remember Dark Souls NG+ being noticeably harder than the first playthough right from the get-go. Different design, I guess.

    From Software Elden Ring - From Software's new game with writing by GRRM

    I beat Elden Ring for the first time about a month ago. Got burned out on my first playthrough around the time I hit the fire giants' forge, but this time I didn't feel that the game dragged for too long despite doing quite a bit of exploring, including some legacy dungeon or two that I missed...

    Trigger the codex with a statement.

    The Witcher 3 is a hidden gem.

    Well Runt is dead now, got a Headcracker proc right at the start of the fight and all I had to do was mercy kill him.
