This Changed My Mind About Elden Ring - Shadow of the Erdtree (Review) 

I abandon here both of my shoulder buttons

Really enjoyed this one! As someone who hasn’t played this genre of game your review really kept me engaged and entertained. Can’t wait for the next one

Ma I’m sorry you didn’t get the feeling I did from playing Elden Ring and it’s DLC. It was the first Fromsoft game I got to play at launch, as I played every one of their games right up to the first trailer for Elden Ring. I was hyped, still hyped, still in love with these games, will always be.

The map being labyrinthine is a good thing, not a bad thing. With so many open world games, wayfaring is reduced to walking in a straight fucking line. This is boring af. Things being missable is also a good thing. Hand-holding is what has turned exploration into following an arrow on your screen, and it won't let you explore or find things on your own, to let you feel accomplished, because you truly found a secret. It's not much of a secret, if you can't miss something.

Not my normal type of game but your video really made me want to try it out. Great content man keep it up, videos are great for long drives to work.

Just clicked the video in my feed, didn't realize you only had just over 100 subs.. earned another one. Very good quality video. I can't wait to see more from you.

wow what a high quality video yay

Great video, I have to say though the music level is way too high compared to your narration. It's like the music is double the volume atleast. Anyway nice work I enjoyed listening to you speak about this

Elden ring is amazing! No game is perfect. Sekiro and lies of p is my favorite combat in a video game. But I just love elden ring. It was my first from software game/ experience.

Definitely having a bit of trouble with Bayle and ****** at the end....which is to be expected. Everybody else I found reasonable (though i cheesed the second liondancer with the death blight tbh). Exploring was actually more fun in SOTE than in Elden ring for me. I loved the 2d map and constantly wondering how deep or how high things went. I will say that you should be at least level 150 if not more. If you're not then you need to swallow your pride and go kill some Albis with the relic sword lol.

60th !!!! ILY RESET BUTTON

i've been playing the game solo and the narrative is actually quite hard to follow compared to the base game. Seems like much of what's going on relies on me summoning allies into battle. As much as people complained about the quests in the base game, when i was 70 hours into the my first playthrough of it, i was able to still finish almost every single questline. Great DLC but i found the npcs a bit of a weak point as far as solo play is concerned

All they had to do was decrease bleed damage each hemorrhage but nope, we just got the 9 million health sponges instead

Really wish I spent more time on Elden ring - I always fell off of it after 10-20 hours because I felt there wasn’t enough to keep me that narratively hooked. Your discussion of the dlc having more of a focused story actually made me want to buy it (step 1 is beating the game though, lol)

You have great editing skills for a new RU-vidr but the music you insert is too loud. Goodluck on your RU-vid journey

Base game bosses are much easier...sooooo you jsut got better. Every boss gives openings. When you dont have experience with them it jsut feels like they dont. People sre too inpstient to learn

My waaaaif!

amazing review

MY 6YO SON HAS BEATEN EVERYTHING EXCEPT FOR PRIME RADAHN IN THIS GAME. IT ISNT HARD

Day 1 asking for a League of Legennds Review

Scadu is actually Old English, which is like German. Gaelic is like Irish or Scottish. Well presented even though I disagree 👍

They were very innovative with new gear, talismans and weapons, but lazy with others. While there are like 3 new fire based armor sets, and an armor set that boosts dragon cult incants, builds like ghostflame and blackflame got severely neglected. The grave bird armor set (helmet) only boosts ONE ghostflame spell instead of ghostflame sorceries as a whole. Instead of new ashes of war they gave us a subpar version of Death's Poker aow from killing one of the few deathrite birds in the dlc (we obtain deaths poker from killing a deathrite bird in the base game) . The expansion feels rushed, empty and uninspired in terms of content in the world. The only areas that weren't severely neglected I feel are the Gravesite plains and Scadu Plateau. Places like Ruah and the Cerulean fields are visually stunning but virtually empty. Bosses like Romina and Rellana feel like they have no reason to be there other than as shameless homages to past Fromsoft fights. Exploring feels worthless as you're only bount to find crafting materials that most players already grinded in preparation for the dlc. Its a soft nudge by From to get us to experiment with new content, but the difficulty of the late game bosses railroads most players instead to a shield and poke tank build, killing class diversity. The balance wasnt struck.
