This happened to my original character that I put 300 hours into, now I back up my saves daily onto a USB drive cause I’m not feeling that trauma again 😂
@@halloumifries yeah, I stopped playing Elden Ring for like 5 months after that because I was just destroyed. Feel your pain, hopefully this sub and like will ease it a lil
I love building "flip" cars like that in games sometimes. Had a Bug in FH5 that went 0-100kph in like 3 seconds and 170-0kph in one flick of the left stick
I can't believe in your very first game you guys just stumbled across a maypole by sheer chance after less than an hour. The odds of that are astronomically low. Most worlds have _zero_ of those things, while others have perhaps one on the entire planet. For reference, it's that green monument thing on the left at around 3:48. It's one of the rarest things in the game, and the moment I saw it I was actually terrified you would not know what it was and chop it down.
@@halloumifries Glad you're aware now. I was getting super-anxious watching you guys running around swinging at mobs of greydwarfs right next to it, thinking "Oh my God, at any moment they're going to knock it down and have no idea..." I mean, it's not like you get any significant buff from it - just +1 comfort - but it's kind of like a shiny Pokemon, where it's the rarity that makes people want it and gasp when they see one. And had you destroyed it, it would have been like watching someone who's never played Pokemon before run into a shiny in the first 20 minutes, then just knock it out and continue on, completely oblivious to what they'd done.
YEs, smoke will hurt you. You had a two story, so it was all high up. If you do a one story, make sure to allow smoke to exit. So, more tips. You can easily place three cooking stands over one fire. left side of fire, center, and right. You can do more, but I find that too many gets hard to grab what I want. to level ground, make a Hoe, will also make clear the grass. You are about to be able to make coal, so you can make signs, to label chest to keep resources more organized. (also, over cook meat to get some right now.)
2 big thigs to suggest. 1, Food. You should always have three food going at one time. For where you are at, roasted boar, mushroom, and berries should be fine. You can eat more as the timer gets below 5 min, as the effectiveness will drop over time. 2, do not get too attached to your first home. You will for sure want to move after first boss, to make gathering new materials a lot easier. do not be afraid to pack rat and pick up everything. It all can be used in some way, just some things are not as useful as others. Night is a lot more dangerous, sleep and go out in the morning until you get geared up better.
