one of the best parts of the game is when enemies get close enough to perceive you the just.
freeze and stare at you

no matter how far away they are

its even better when youre sneaking and its like 😬

there are fun little....pranks in the game where some treasure chests just. teleport you across the map

its a very good part of the game, honestly.

beat my first great lord! first try, too!

godrick who? lmao ​​​

oh yeah forgot to post but after i was pranked and warped super far away i found a boyfriend

my most upvoted message is "up, dog" which is killing me

i unlocked a lot of the map today, which was a lot of fun especially in the higher leveled areas that i am NOT prepared for lmao

i also found the best shield ngl

hoped on voice chat and told my friend about how i found a certain long-running NPC in elden ring

and then helped him beat godrick.

did some more exploring and when he went back to like the ONE "safe" area in the entire game and got invaded and we were FREAKING out lmao

also im apparently like. WAY over leveled for a lot of the early area stuff...

OH AND i figured out how to properly apply my great rune? so now ive got all stats boosted to +5 lmao

i was SO excited when i found <Long Time FromSoft NPC>

ive beaten a good handful of bosses first try and that feels nice, although i think it means i may be a bit overpowered

WHO THE FUCK GAVE THIS DRAGON A SWORD

wow, whoever's fetish it is to make dark souls swamps must have been told "go wild" with elden ring

theres like. 3. fucking. swamps

me: "wow these swamps kinda bite. huh?"
game: "haha what if i said go to the stinkiest, swampiest part of the swamp to find a thing :)"
me: ​

writer: "okay we need to really show the player how desolate and fucked up this poison swamp area is"
environment artist: lmao i gotchu

subtlety is for cowards

coworker messaged me this morning
"finished elden ring in 45hrs! 💪"

and im like "haha im 45hrs in and just finished the second boss :3"

this coworker also missed a few things that i knew about

so i guess ive just been..... a LOT more thorough with exploring lmao

horse

me: "wow im kinda getting used to these dudes on horses. i think im finally getting the hang of this ga-"
fromsoft: here are some dudes on giant ants. prepare to get fucked lmao.

so i was playing a bunch today and i was just like minding my own business and then this fucking dragon swoops down at me, charges up with electricity and then has the nerve to turn that electricity into a sword to swing at me

i was so overcome that i could do nothing but run around with my mouth agape in awe of the thing.

LIKE??? it was so fucking cool and out of the blue

what a game

was also trying to do a cave with a friend and we got invaded and i was super nervous but i fucking just clowned on that kid lmfao 💪 ​

stun locked and poisoned them lollll

that same friend saw my health bar and went "this is just a boss health bar" lmfao

its true. i AM very powerful and have more than one phase (the second and third phases are just crying) ​

there is no difference between these two images

explored more in the capitol city and finally found the sewer area and holy shit. i can honestly say i didnt expect a whole fucking dungeon

and it had so many elements of classic DS1-esque design. it was pretty cool although i did get lost at least once

put down my sign for randos and there was one person who was just ONLY using dragon magic and like. was doing NO damage.

thats the only time ive done this where a host has died DURING the fight lol

two words: boy. friend.

boyfriend gone ;w;

i keep saying "Raya Lucaria" instead of "Raya Liurnia"

went and re-specced my character, moving a few points from DEX and into STR and various spell attributes

HAD to keep the ridiculous health and stamina meters though

look,, i realized i had a few really cool incantations that i just couldnt cast

and i had 11 of the respec items so i thought why not!

took me a bit but i beat this giant ass cosmic horror beast

really cool shit. great design, super powerful and scary

sorry for the blurryness lmao

but like. look at 'em. cool as Fuck tbh

finished an NPC's storyline and i think this may be the FIRST storyline in a fromsoft game that ive actually finished

"hey hows elden ring going"

but then! after that area! it got a lot better.

i made a friend :3
