So what the frick were these things supposed to be lore-wise? Why are they hanging around Carian Manor and buried in snow up in the mountains?

looks like a giant hand.
I don't know, but head-cannon is the hands of giants that were experimented on to find out how the could wield fire or whatever.
They look like Rykard's hands.
They wanted spiders in the game but didn't want to trigger arachnophobs.
I miss Bloodborne
I hate spiders but I know spiders in game are fake even though they spike anxiety. Fricking spineless pussies wrecking games
>Fricking spineless pussies wrecking games
It's game devs accommodating to them that is killing games. Either suck it up or play something else, I say.
These are more unsettling, they failed
Giving Carians a hand. Sometimes a handjob. They're all raound handy to have around.
buried up in the mountains because....
they ran away from home?
They are reskinned spiders because arachnaphobes have infiltrated gaming
>carbs on carbs
why do people do this?
It's delicious.
fingers, O fingers
all the more fingers
I assumed they were Two Fingers flunkies but that doesn't really match up with where you find them.
The Ringed Finger weapon's description mentions blasphemy, which ties into the theory that they're linked to Rykard, but I don't know why they'd be up in the giant's mountaintop instead of just circling around Volcano Manor.
>Bludgeon made of an enormous finger sheathed in several heavy rings. Thought to have been cut from an ancestor of the Fingercreeper.
>Some life yet remains in this legacy of an ancient act of blasphemy, as evidenced by the barely perceptible warmth it still exudes.
MotG has a few very huge ones, like bigger than the big ones.
Carian attempt at understanding The Fingers, discarded like everything else, which is why you find them buried in random places but instead of standing straight up they wait to trap people because Carian sorcerers actually just made murderous weapons instead of divine messengers
Those hands are scary
With as fricking massive and varied as the bestiary in Elden Ring was, I think they were just getting burnt out by the end and throwing in whatever recycled enemies they could to fill out the last area or two.
Do I just skip the crucible knight? I didn't use a single flask on darwil or whatever. How can one evergaol be so much harder in the same zone..
>the
you cant run away forever. sooner or later youre gonna have to deal with it or the eventuality will only hit you harder
I parried him twice in a row (first boss I have come across where I needed to) and he doesn't become vulnerable until the 2nd parry, hard enough doing it once but not sure what else to do. Dodge rolling doesn't seem to work when the boss has a big shield slam attack
I was using +3 lordsworn great sword and then thought I'd try using a regular mace and shield. Is the game really that much easier as a mage? It sounds harder being a glass cannon but I picked the knight looking class and mostly went into strength.
>Is the game really that much easier as a mage?
Yeah kinda. It depends on the situation and what magic you've collected up to that point.
With the range of overpowered spells you can get by the end of the game it can make a huge difference, but there were also a lot of fights early on where I felt like I was just stuck in a boxing ring with an angry bear throwing glowsticks at it.
If anyone's really fricking you up just go on a fifty mile hike in the opposite direction and come back later with a slightly bigger sword.
>How can one evergaol be so much harder in the same zone..
That knight is definitely tuned way higher than basically anything in the entire region, including a couple other crucible knights. Don't feel too bad
Does Miyazaki have a hateboner for animators?

its just a cool looking enemy, shut the frick up
The Carian Nobility made them. Volcano Manor was amassing an army out of whatever they could get their hands on, which is why so many disparate enemy types appear around Mt. Gelmir. Although since Rykard is the lord of Volcano Manor, he may have just brought some with him.
I'll tell you what they are, reused assets that were put in the game because it looked cool. Just like almost everything in these games. Reused concepts, reused lore, reused characters with different names...
At this rate, the dlc will be set in a giant recycle bin.
The game has a ridiculous amount of original content, but I also wish that they had just cut out half of the copy-paste mini-dungeon tombs and caves.
