I want to try it, but I'm not extremely hyped, just somewhat excited. The fact that there is day one DLC is a bit of a bummer in the way it feels like a cash grab.

I'll definitely wait a bit to make sure From's famous netcode is ironed out first. Maybe wait to see if there is a sale during summer.

Gotta be DS3. It was my first one and the game lets you treat it like a boss rush if you know it well, so I've got several NG+ cycles that were completed in a day each. It has less running around / travel time required than DS1 and 2.

Haven't played Bloodborne (thanks, SONY) or Sekiro (soon tho).

It's a lot better as a co-op area than solo, which is hell, but not great either way. Still terribly large and empty and could have used a bonfire in one of the buildings. The rest of this DLC is awesome though.

NK is really sneaky like that. I remember noticing he has that slight delay which became prominent with Elden Ring bosses.

What did you use to track deaths?

For some reason I can't seem to view the meme, but I've been thinking about that kitten too.

I appreciate the advice and encouragement!

Depends on the game and how much experience I had at the time.

DS1 and DS2, between 1 and 5 attempts on average.

DS3 (my first souls game) probably 10+ on average on first playthrough, but now I can first try most of them. I think Abyss Watchers or Dancer took the most tries, probably 50 each. The challenge on NG+7 makes me feel like a noob again, though - Demon Princes, SoC, Gael are all pretty nuts.

Elden Ring, honestly I haven't solo'd most of the late game or DLC bosses, but I would say they are among the most difficult. I'm playing through again now and soloing most of them, I would say it's around 10 to 15 attempts for the main remembrance bosses so far.

Demon's Souls was not bad, maybe 1 to 3 tries each, except for the second-to-final boss was easily 20 or 30 tries, and an absolute nightmare of a runback. I was also on the full black world tendency before realizing how that mechanic worked lol.

Have you played the DS3 DLCs at SL1? My SL1 run is currently stuck at Soul of Cinder, just can't stop getting greedy and eating combos.

Personally I found NK wasn't bad, but I struggled with about as many attempts as you on both Twin Princes and Champion Gundyr. At least they are all fun fights though!

Another playthrough of Elden Ring. There's just so much to it and I forget so much that I need to progress. Hopefully will finish the base game and try to get through SOTE next week.

After that I think I'm finally ready to try Sekiro for the first time. I'm a bit intimidated by what I have seen so far, but I figure enough determination should get me through it.

Fall. No allergies, cooler temperatures, the changing leaves, shorter days, and the coming of winter (2nd favourite). I don't do well in heat and I'm not very fond of the sun.

All 5 reviews are negative. However... I don't think I can turn my back on this creature 🥺 Must microtransact to protect it at any cost

There are quite a variety of sounds on this one. My favourite is track 5, "Pain".
