Did I miss the Elden Ring DLC discourse? - Lemmy

This is the first comic that expresses why I rage quit so many games with overly difficult boss fights ( if there’s any delay measured in more than microseconds between retries ).

I played (and still do) the original one hit kill arcade bullshit. Hell, I beat Alladin on SNES. I’m not allergic to a challenge.

But have no time to repeat anything that isn’t fun in a video game. I could be filling out tax forms with that time.

This is a big reason I farmed hard in Elden Ring and have 356 hours. I spent a lot of that time leveling my health up so I can take more damage. Level 156 and my health bar is like half the width of my TV lmao.
Sure, but farming isn’t really playing a game though. A boss should be beatable in some clever, but challenging way at a reasonable level range.

You can just do coop to safely farm boss fights without the risk of dropping the runes. Or…

You can get 150+ in <1hr if you grab a great bow and make a beeline for the Varre quest. There’s a bird you can repeatedly bait into suiciding without moving more than 10 steps from the grace. Or if you turn 180⁰ there’s a whole swarm of albinaurics that give you even more runes/min if you have good AoE damage. There are plenty of extremely easy options.
