But I have been keeping most discussion about it in PMs because I reckon Balrog is the only one who’d want to hear it. Really fun game, honestly. 2 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCzarsHussar Posted June 3 Share Posted June 3 (edited) But after continuous testing, I'm certain it's a frame rate issue. I just flat out cannot dodge that without a high enough rate. Edit: It's not even an issue or matter of getting stuck, I just use this bitch for damage testing.

BigBossBalrog Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Previews coming out at 10! Some of the screenshots got leaked early! And by far my favorite! *Proud Omen Warriors* So pretty much confirmed Marika and the Golden Order lied about everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe the Golden Order says that Omens are a horrible curse/birth defect/sign of being away from grace? Yet you have this entire civilization of them pre-Erdtree, who seem to be just normal Empire/kingdom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 With the others, who looked super badass but weird, I was still unsure, but that one is like "that's a proud warrior If I've ever seen one!" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godfrey was a conquering badass beyond the fog, with armies of proud warriors, knights, and priests. All of them were "cursed" tarnished away from grace. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 https://www.ign.com/articles/elden-ring-shadow-of-the-erdtree-first-impressions-of-the-big-dlc https://www.pushsquare.com/features/preview-elden-ring-promises-a-dlc-masterclass-in-shadow-of-the-erdtree https://www.gamespot.com/articles/shadow-of-the-erdtree-renews-the-awe-and-adventure-of-elden-ring/1100-6523901/ Some initial observations; 1. People were given level 150 character; STILL very difficult. 2. Area is as big as Limgrave, Weeping, and "half" of Caelid. 3. Map is designed to be super winding. One example they gave was when they entered a Gaol from the base-game expecting a mini-boss...only to find a secret route that led to a secret dungeon. 4. Smaller dungeons were designed to feel more unique and be like "tiny" legacy dungeon. Speaking of, in the first three hours, they experienced TWO Legacy Dungeons, and someone was saying there's about five of them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigBossBalrog Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 "The lore is delivered by a new cast of characters, as seen in the trailers. Knights, servants, and followers of Miquella are tracing the Empyrean’s footsteps across the Land of Shadow. Each new character is unique with their own background and story; one knight, Freyja, once fought alongside Radahn. Another served Mohg. They’re assisted by a twitchy, nervous Merchant. All are in this mysterious land because they wish to locate and follow in the footsteps of Miquella. There’s an air of the allies you meet in Roundtable Hold about this motley band of warriors. Some are more friendly than others, of course. They congregate around ‘Miquella’s Crosses’, shining waypoints that appear to mark places that Miquella let go of some part or another of their being."

BigBossBalrog Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Apparently one of the Legacy Dungeons is a Carian themed one; a "mage-stronghold" filled with Spellblades AND RENNALA'S sister. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Some of the new NPC's are fucking insane. There's a Dragon Communion warrior whose supporting Miquella just because he's the last claimant in the Shattering. There's another whose an OMEN, despises "Marika's people", and is only helping to ensure his people's survival in the new order. Alot of different motivation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted June 4 Share Posted June 4 Bandai is saying the DLC is 30-50 hours IF YOU RUSH. HOLY SHIT. It's Elden Ring 2! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in the day, it wasn’t uncommon for sequels to basically just be continuations of the story with some small improvements, but with the same engine and even graphics. Kinda wish this was more common for games where the gameplay formula was already really solid and not in great need of changing. It would speed up the release schedules pretty drastically. Not every game needs to be a huge technological leap. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not every game needs to be a huge technological leap. It felt like a very long time; but two years for such a massive experience (people are comparing it to Blood and Wine) is pretty short for AAA standards I imagine FROM's clever use of asset reusual is something that should be studied by other studios.

I’ve yet to be convinced that every single asset found in Dark Souls 3, Elden Ring, Sekiro, and Armored Core 6 cannot be found hidden in the Chalice Dungeons… somewhere. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
