                Well, last I heard from it is that it is having development issues. I never had any hopes for it, because:
                1. A new developer to action gameplay with no proven trackrecord, on top of that, they are Chinese, potential for vaporware and scams is super high.
                2. Only developers who make proper melee action gameplay are Team Ninja, Itagaki Games, FromSoftware and sometimes Capcom.

                If Black Myth: Wukong or that Korean game Project EVE are released and good games, then cool, I'll support them, but I don't have any expectations for those games.

    In general I agree, it was very noticeable in Elden Ring. Bloodborne feels pretty good though and the DS1 and DS2 combat feels appropriate for the overall slower pace of the games, with more emphasis on playing methodological. Dark Souls 3 and Elden Ring feel like some weird in between though that isn't fun.

              Traditional Souls summons give the bosses a massive boost to HP and Stats, making some of them even harder if you use summons (Gaping Dragon is an excellent example of this) when compared to solo. Elden Dogshit Ring Spirit Ashe summons do not have this penalty. Tiche/Mimic +10 literally solo bosses, the vast majority of traditional Souls summons are incapable of doing this.

              You exposed yourself.

              Fire Crackers are weak, getting 1 or 2 extra hits doesn't carry the fight. Did you even play Sekiro? Of course you didn't, you don't even know how the summon systems work in souls games.

                Having excrement and urine eating evolving into a new race shows the severe anti-nature and anti-humane and evil of the israeli mind, which gave birth to All Tomorrows. All Tomorrows shows how much israelites hate nature and humanity, how they wish to disfigure it into something ugly that reflects their own ugly nature. That Turkish israeli subhuman who created All Tomorrows exposed not only how disgusting israelites are, but also how disgusting the subhuman low IQ non-Jews are who promote these ugly anti-nature and anti-human garbage. The extermination of israelites is not enough, all non-Jews who like the israeli mindset and the creations of the israeli mindset must also be exterminated.

    Not really. It's like the other way around. You WILL follow the highschool curriculum you little niglet. But "Souls" combat is much more open ended, and if you insist on an education system metaphor, it's exactly signing up for a college/uni course because once you start it's a pain in the dick to change course if you even can.

        Stop projecting

        You're posting a boss using cloud passage from sekiro. They literally ported a sekiro boss and took away all the tools you'd use to kill her

    Yeah like ER, difference is it's quite a feat for a developer to be able to remove replay value from an open world rpg lmao

        0 because they deal no damage, they're only good as a defensive option.
        Even if I needed something to use against beast, I'd pick the Flame Vent over Firecrackers.

          You could also just use mortal draw. It does massive damage and breaks the stance of beasts.

        I think I only ever bothered using firecrackers on Gyobu.

    This can't be done in sekiro. You have to play accurately to kill bosses, you can't just press Y to summon tiche and L2 to use the OP troonveil weapon art to win the game
    Elden ring is easy.

      It quite literally does not count. It's shitter cope at its finest.
      You can always summon in all Souls. The difference is that you homosexuals have been filtered in actually engaging with the content and this makes you mad, so you use the "Uh actually ER is le easy because you can summon"

        You can't summon in sekiro and you can't use the OP weapon to break the game either.

          But on the other hand it already has the most easy combat and worthless fodder enemies

            It's easy to master if you spend 100 hours on it. Elden can be mastered day one 2 hours in if you get the troonveil or rivers of trannies with tiche

      Was it something that was already in the game that the modders just had to turn on?

    Elden Ring is the only souls game I've played and really enjoyed it. What souls type game should I play next?

      depends, what did you enjoy about Elden Ring? The intricate level design of the legacy dungeons? Dark Souls 1 and Demon's Souls. The fast paced combat? BB and DS3? The overused copypaste bosses and lack of quality control? Dark Souls 2.

        DaS2 DLC areas are best designed levels in all souls games.

    Can you contrarian morons stop sucking off Sekiro as if it's the second coming of Christ already? Only you care about how many times you came in your pants after blocking-I mean "parrying" one enemy four hundred times with your katana, nor about how hard you're constantly seething over ER being exponentially more popular than your shitty ninja game.
