Back at it with more criticisms for the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC (FromSoft). Standard caveat: *SPOILER WARNING* In the last post, I talked about cheesing Radagon with no regrets in my first playthrough. Oh, before I go on, I have included a video by Umbriferous with solid cricisms of the DLC below. I don’t… Continue Reading
In my last post, I was talking about the things I found frustrating about the Shadow of the Erdtree (FromSoft) DLC. I ended by talking about my displeasure with how the bosses were created for this game. In the DLC, it’s not so much that they have two bosses as one (looking at you, last… Continue Reading
Before I give an actual review of the DLC, Shadow of the Erdtree (FromSoft), I want to talk about what I found frustrating in the game. In some ways, it’s just an extension of my exasperation with the FromSoft games in general. Also, it’s funny that I started a post yestreday, intent on doing an… Continue Reading
Today, I am offering my definitive review of Shadow of the Erdtree, the Elden Ring DLC from FromSoft. I have played through the whole thing, found every place noted in Eurogamer’s video about 11 hidden areas in the DLC–which I’ve included below. I’m feeling smug because I found all of them. But, it speaks to… Continue Reading
In the last post, I was talking about gatekeeping in FromSoft games. I left off by bringing up the ongoing debate in the RKG Discord/Patreon about the *sigh* use of summons. I sigh because it’s boring as fuck. It’s pretty much as simple as if you don’t like that the boys use them, then, BYEEEEEEEE!… Continue Reading
I am pretty tired of the topic of gatekeeping, but I need to talk about it as a FromSoft fan. There are two reasons I’m specifically bringing it up now, and I’ll try to get to both. The first is *sigh* the isuse of accessibility options in games. You would think that in the year… Continue Reading
We’re back again to talk about the final boss of Shadow of the Erdtree. I will try to stick to that topic, but I will probably fail. Again, here is the pro forma *SPOILER WARNING* I will say that Krupa had the first Lore Masterclass of the second series. This one was on Ranni, and… Continue Reading
Ok. Everything about this post is a *SPOILER WARNING* because I’m about to talk about the last boss whom I reached last night. Hm. Well. Ok. I’m going to take this in chronological order and stop numbering these posts. This is going to be about bosses in general because I fought the final boss for three hours… Continue Reading
I am back with my neverending posts about the Elden Ring DLC, Shadow of the Erdtree. *SPOILER WARNING* At the end of the last post, I was gushing about the Mesmer fight. One, the fact that he was where he was, which took me completely by surprise. Again, it shouldn’t have because lore-wise, it makes… Continue Reading
Hello. At the end of the last post, I was talking about my disappointment with *SPOILER WARNING* an optional boss, Metyr, Mother of Fingers. I mentioned how Fextralife was saying that it was a hard boss and that it hit hard. The latter is definitely true. I think the former would have been true if… Continue Reading
