>game allows you to play however you want
>people online get very offended if you play however you want
Just like the "I'M A FRIENDLY HOOVY!" in TF2, why are people like this with Elden Ring?
>game allows you to play however you want. >people online get very offended if you play however you want
Autism.
The answer is always autism.
you didn't beat the game if is just a Mike matei meme you moron.
tge people who complain about mimic tear and have some moronic honor code where you're only allowed to play with boring knight with sword+board while ignoring 90% of game content are the same people who cry about the game being unfair and too hard
Fromdrones are very fat without lives. This was always the case. So it's no coincidence why they'd have some ''code of honor'' with a mere videogame, a mediocre one at that. What they're suffering from is Stockholm Syndrome. They formed a cult personality, sort of like a schizo, around fromshit games where they consider objectively bad and outdated game design to be ''difficult''. When in reality it's just a developer making the same mistakes and refusing to adapt. Their games don't even have a pause button. The fromdrone even hates his own games, but unlike a normal person he refuses to admit they're objectively bad games. Again, just like a battered wife that has grown to love the beatings.
>join tf2 server
>see enemy heavy
>heavy jumps
>kill heavy
>"IM A FRIENDLY HEAVY WHY YOU KILLING ME???"
>"VOTEKICK VOTEKICK NOWWW!"
Same shit different day, why are these people like this?
My sense of self worth is based on pretending a mediocre souls sequel is extremely difficult and that beating it is some kind of rite of passage rather than just me suffering through a boring game
You beat the game on easy baby mode if you used it, that's all. The problem is you getting mad when called a casual..
is summoning Solaire also being a casual player for Ornstein and Smough?
solaire doesn't make that fight easier usually so it's not really the same thing
but i'm sure pedantic buttholes would say yes
purists are like christian whackos, they think they're opinion is important, but really no one cares
I'd rather listen to christgays than trannies, seethe harder israelite
>beat the game using a literal movie mode (watching an AI beat the game for you)
i dont give a frick what you do in the game
>pretend that "the game forced me to do it its too cheap and hard!!!"
now you are a coping shitter and i will make fun of you
English please
try graduating from middle school first then read it again
>people keep telling me how hard elden ring is
>use ashes summons
>kill most bosses in 1-2 tries
>waaah anon this does not count
>fine ill use xbow and bow with bleed/poison arrows
>waaah anon range does not count
>use magic
>waaaah magic does not count either, it trivialized the game
>use certain ashes of war, some allow for nearly permanent stunlock
>waaah D O E S N O T C O U N T
Honestly, i feel at this point you have to dodge most mechanics in the game to play it like the purists want. Not gonna lie, some places are still hard as frick, but mostly because the game seems to just break its own rules, like monsters with infinite poise, monsters recovering mid stagger to counter you, monsters cycling trough the same attack infinitely unless you move out of range to reset them, oh god the input reading, oh god its so bad its hillarious. Both ways, it fricks you over so many times, but so often you can just trigger the enemy AI to do dumb shit because it input reads.
Still 9/10 game, if you know you can deal with some serious bullshit.
protip - those purists are actually mexicans who are low iq and think not using what the game has is impressing white men.
another protip - white men dont use Ganker anymore
only Mexicans and pollacks use Ganker now
To po kiego chuja ciągle gadamy po angielsku?
you guys should hang out
because I'm an American and frick you speak English. fricking Pollak
Not just Mexicans, Latin Americans in general.
t. Mexican
jaja gringos maman verga
Elden Ring is the most casual Souls game
NOOOOOOOOO...
Anon...
Why did you have to remind me of what we lost.
>people online
There aren't any though.
>giving away one of the most powerful ashes in the most underwhelming way imaginable
imagine if it was locked behind an easily missable questline like it was meant to originally. wonder how much seethe there would have been from casuals and tryhards alike
>ds1 used pyromancy
>ds2 used hexes
>ds3 used miracles
>elden ring used incantations
My first playthrough was a STR build with zweihander, brick hammer and nightrider glaive. It was boring as sin.
I kill all friendlies ESPECIALLY spycrabs and I've been doing it since way before Ganker realized what cancer they are. I also do my darndest to cap on hightower whenever I find myself on it. Valve servers are not "just for fricking around, no one caps on Valves". Community servers are for fricking around and only morons go on the default official servers and complain about people playing the objective. I will switch between engi, demo and scout and play out of my mind and try to get a few team members on board to sneak a cap. If a team full of gay market gardeners can't hit a stationary target the entire time I'm crouching on that slow ass elevator, and they can't figure out how to go on a community 24/7 hightower after all these years, then they fully deserve the map shuffle and will never improve anyways. If they're not trying to votekick me while spamming "community" mantras, I'm not capping hard enough. Frick ritualgays.
I fricking hate joining a casual match and these morons start votekicking people just because "I AM FRIENDLY" like come on, I want to play TF2 not the sims
that game was gay to begin with
>NOOO YOU CANT USE THE TOOLS THE GAME GIVES YOU TO TAILOR YOUR EXPERIENCE HOWEVER YOU WANT
or
>umm I looked up all the meta builds before I even played the game and grinded myself to level 275 before getting out of limgrave why is this the most boring and laziest game in the series?
why is there no inbetween?
This what summoning remindS me on souls it's optional tool you can use to make game easier, it's more of a clever easy mode.
>be dex player
>get rivers of blood
>Wow this is a cool weapon

>online, even on le reddit XD, people are angry about it
its all so tiring
>Play INT god
>Obtain comet azur

Yes, yes, HOWEVER

Nothin personell
Why do cheesers always try to rationalize their cheesing? It's just a singleplayer game, if you want to use exploits then go ahead.
I thought cheesing was only in fighting games when you're vs another player. if it's single player it's called cheating, or exploiting
Cheesing = cheap strategy (how easy it is to execute compared to effectiveness)
Cheating = inputting a code or breaking the rules (or any other kind of MODIFYING the game to do what you want)
Exploiting = using unintended mechanics to gain an advantage
seems right to me. I always put cheesing in with fighting games though
I would say cheesing is the same thing as exploitation though in a single player game
Cheesing is something like using input reading to your advantage. It's and intended mechanic that the devs didn't expect the player to take Advantage of.
What
says.
A comparison between cheese and exploit would be getting better gear before you are meant too.
Cheesing would be running past a bunch of monsters into an area way too high level for you to snag an item that is placed there allowing you for an easy time.
Exploiting would be clipping trough a wall to get an item that would otherwise be unavailible and then you procede to use it to stomp the game.
Both results are the same, but one used what the devs put into the game intentionally, while the other uses mechanics or things the devs did not put in intentionally.
Elden Ring is the single most casual-shit game in the entire franchise, and it's clear all the secondaries got really fricking offended when veterans thought it was kinda lame that the game can practically beat itself at times.
Elden Ring's success is the worst thing that could have happened to the FromSoft format, because it opened the flood gates to all the normie shits, and it will proceed to cater to them in future.
The actual moronation goes even further.
>Game offers you tools.
>Refuse to use tools for arbitrary reasons.
>Complain that the game isn't build around your unintended playstyle.
>Use tools
>Game plays itself
I guess it's fine for people that like walking simulators, but why do they have to ruin every franchise?
This has always been how soulshit worked I have no idea why people pretend these games are hard.
Yes, because ER isn't the easiest from game.
Don't (you) at me, I dislike disingenuous gays.
>game is built around the idea of jolly cooperation
>whiners whine that people partake in jolly cooperation
Whew.
What's worse, Rivers of Blood or DS2 Estoc?
Reminder if you used comet azur and stood in one spot until "Demigod Felled" flashed up on the screen, you played with training wheels. You selected easy mode. It's fine, you got through the game like everyone else, but be honest with yourself about your prowess at the game. Looking up a meta build online is cheating.
The genius of Elden Ring's design is that it is accessible to low-skilled players who are new to the Souls-like games, while at the same time it is challenging to even the hardest Souls veterans.
you can literally do whatever the frick you want, and make up your own story and challenges
And yet here you are complaining about other people complaining.
And now here you come in, complaining about the fact that he's here complaining about other people complaining. Makes my blood boil.
I summon npcs if I see their sign
I summon ashes if the boss has friends
Simple as
>Just like the "I'M A FRIENDLY HOOVY!" in TF2, why are people like this with Elden Ring?
because they're a bunch of moronic Black person homosexuals. Play any game however you please, everyone else can cope, sneed, and dilate.
Mimic Tear only works if your build doesn't suck in the first place.
However, 'Friendlies' literally ruin the flow of a match. If half your team is being brain-dead deadweight, the only hope is for the other team to be equally saddled with those liabilities. Kill on sight.
im scrolling through this thread and im not reading any of the posts can someone explain this to me in baseball terms
Imagine if half your guys in the field were obstructing the efforts to catch out the batters - and if you have the temerity to criticise them they get INCREDIBLY pissy.
That's a 'Friendly'.
Not him but I dont fricking understand anything you re saying and I'm getting hungry. Give me the fast food version or I swear to God
Okay homosexual
In Elden Ring there is something called the Mimic tear which clones your character and its build. You can summon mimic tear against bosses.
In Team Fortress 2, there are homosexuals who go to the opposing team and gesture towards them, then writing in chat "I AM A FRIENDLY HOOVY DO NOT KILL ME!"
People who use mimic tear in Elden Ring cause autists to get greatly offended and they begin sperging by saying "NOOOO YOU DIDN'T BEAT THE GAME IF YOU USED MIMIC TEAR!!"
People who kill "FRIENDLY HOOVYS" in Team Fortress 2 cause the 'friendly heavys' to get very angry and that 'friendly' player will try to get the killer vote kicked. Most of the time the killer does get vote kicked.
Two examples of autists ruining the fun for everyone else because they want EVERYONE to play the GAME the way THEY WANT.
Even though everyone paid money for the game and can play it whatever fricking way they want.
TLDR version:
Use mimic tear in Elden Ring -> causes autists to get very offended at you for using it because it "makes the game easier"
Kill friendly heavy in TF2 -> you get votekicked for doing this as the people on your team are gay for the "friendly heavy" on the other team
I'll get offended if you choose to only play it in a way that gives you a reason to whine about how much the game sucks.
>use cheats
>people don't like cheaters
>NOO WHY DO THEY JUDGE MY CHEATING SO
>don't like something
>call it cheating
Not how it works.
>use cheats
>noo it's not cheating if we call it something else
not how it works
>ingame item
>cheat
Ooook. Don't you have to dilate or go to a doctors appointment?
you do realize that cheat codes have been in games since forever
For every person actually offended, there are 10 more talking about how "people online get very offended if you play however you want".
Classic internet screaming at clouds.
If you disengage with the hivemind, all of these problems disappear! Try thinking for yourself.
Where can you fight the second mimic tear
You have to get into the third Eternal City, Kruella, and fight the Spotted Hound before dropping off a ledge that leads to the secret Second Mimic Tear fight.
you CAN play anyway you want, but you did not beat the game
It's called gatekeeping, newbie
>Caveman only
Game fun
>Magic Swordsman
Game fun
>Dragon Knight
Game fun
>Hawkeye
Game fun
>Black flame
Game not fun, black flame kinda ass
The trick is to have fun
I don't care how you beat the game you beat the game period. But only under the condition that you didn't have help from the internet. You didn't look anything up and didn't get any tips.
You beat the game all by yourself, yes?
I used the internet 🙁
