“So you dont have to be as good as games journalists”
I mean, ignoring the fact that From/Bandai 100% gave journalists a 100% complete save with a high level character to play the DLC with, this is such a massive burn to people complaining that its too hard.
Someone who was a tech journalist rather than a games journalist, and posted the attempts as a bit of self-deprecating humor. Of course capital-G Gamers think being bad at a game is a Serious Crime and nothing to joke about, so they responded as you would expect.
Sort of. They front loaded the benefits of specific upgrades so you felt more buffed early on. So the new stuff scales more akin to sacred tears for flasks.
Honestly probably a worthwhile change. Hooks players in better.
It is pretty lack luster. I was hoping there would have been at least one more layer of depth that might’ve let me choose between offense and defense rather than just both.
But to me: duplicating all new crafting materials and filling a lot of places with loot that can be purchased infinitely in the base game is more of a drag, however. Crafting is the original sin of Elden Ring.
You thought From was just going to make a massive DLC and let everyone waltz through it like they were a god with their high level base game character?

awkwardly looks at IGN’s previous Souls game “guides” on yt Oh yeah, games journalists are great at games…
Who was the one who couldn’t make the jump on the cup head tutorial? Was that the Verge?

That’s not “being bad at a game”. That’s “worse than a 5 year old”.
And the source of that video absolutely thought they were qualified to complain about difficulty.
Better than the people giving it a bad review for difficulty, it would seem.
Did they actually cave in because of some crybabies? Sad!

The blessing system kind of sucks, basically the most fucked up milestone leveling you can think of.
“Yeah, I know you just killed a demigod… but you know what you should really do? Go kill some hippos. That’ll get you true power.”

No I just expect them to make their leveling system not complete ass.
Please, explain it to me in detail - why does killing two hippos gain me more power than killing Messmer? I’ll wait.
Did you actually just purposefully imitate Trump posting on Twitter?
It’s a minor buff for early game that normalizes by the midgame.
Good, cry more you whiny gatekeeping capital G Gamers.
