  • Shadow of the Erdtree. It’s pretty good, don’t know if I’d say it slaps.

    MASSIVE SPOILERS LIKE FOR REAL DON'T CLICK UNLESS YOU'RE AT THE END

    Made it to what is I think the final boss (Radahn + Miquella) and suddenly started getting just completely annihilated, so I’ve fucked off to get more skidoo fragments. I have fought the angory dragon and St. Trina’s Rotting Boy and they were no big deal so I really think the scaling for Radquella might just be expecting level 20 blessing? Idk.

    Also I lost 200k souls to falling off a ledge (and then falling off a different ledge on my way back), but I’m already level 198 so I don’t really care.









  • There’s also no clear progression for this system.

    I don’t disagree, I’d really like to see how the numbers actually break down to make sense of what a difference it’s making. I’ve noticed that usually I’m able to rush bosses down fast enough that it’s never an endurance slog like Elden Beast, but every hit I take is doing like 50% of my HP and I’m wearing heavy armor.

    Like why do I need to unlock spirit springs now? The rock to smash to enable it is 100 yards away but you’re having me look for it for what reason?

    Oh, is that how those work. Noticed it was broken and figured it might have just turned on later.

    Re: progression, I just beat

    spoiler

    Mesmer at blessing level 10, and I’m getting the impression that the main story is coming to a close but there’s still like 3 entire areas of the map I walked into and just turned around so maybe there’s lots of side stuff?
