Okay. The Elden Ring is quite fun and has fantastic graphics. Too bad I'm so bad at the game! Some big dude on a horse has killed me too many times. Maybe I'll see if I can just sneak past him for the time being.

I have an invisibility cloak? I'm not finding much of anything in the game although I smash everything I see. I'll have to see if there's a tutorial out there.

Give him a wide berth, he shouldnt bother you, I sneaked up on him. One hit hit, took about 10% of his health, Decided i was getting done anyway so i went ultra attack and well died anyway xD. So im away to level up and go back for him haha, I did accidentally open up a trap chest though that took me to a new world with enemies much higher level that me, So gotta sneak out haha, Its a soulsgame. So like Dark souls/Bloodbourne etc.
It runs sweet for me maxed at 1440, The odd performance issue but nothing game breaking as of yet!

I just upgraded my GPU yesterday, so I've put in test time in numerous games.

But, I'm going to be focusing on MELE, another run through Cyberpunk 2077, and Skyrim Enhanced Edition.

I will, however, also put in more testing time with Tomb Raider / Rise of / Shadow of and Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, and of course, Elden Ring (#@%^@$#%^@$%^ this game is not forgiving at all. You really have to know how to cheese these bosses, even the baby ones, almost from get go).

LOL. I'm playing Elden Ring now. I just keep running through the same section over and over accruing currency. Didn't realize you have to pay to level up.

Keep at it @jvickers, get enough currency and you will be able to afford a pluton chip :ROFLMAO:

Gods, yes, I've tried both Astrologer and the ... last one, forgot what it is called, the one with level 1 starting point and all attributes at 10. Astrologer is weak, runs out of 'mana' (also forgot what it is called - I'll look it up in a bit and edit the post) but that one char at level 1? Holy #$%@ b@}}s that thing gets wiped out by anything - even if you roll the wrong way and fall down just a bit....

Sheesh.

But, that is what makes this game so fun - frustratingly fun, admittedly, but fun all the same.

I'm playing the warrior. So far, I'm not even to the castle. I just keep going back through the same are stabbing people in the back for the ruins. I just need to level up some, I think.

I was a toss up when i went to choose! Was stuck between a good few that i'd narrowed it down to. I went with the Vagabond, Seems pretty sweet so far, More of a jack of all trades kinda class. The wretch class is like the deprived class in dark souls. Starts off super low and basic but offers full customization in terms of how you wanna build you're character!

I ran through the stormgate, Came across a troll and a bunch of dudes, Lured the troll outside, Done him, went back for the other dudes, Done em too and then got one hit from 3 seperate warriors at the same time. Died D: xD

I'm playing super conservative. I knocked off three of the stormgate guards and decided my luck had run it's course. my dude might die of old age the rate I'm going!

I was just reading a wiki on Elden Ring. Now I know what the tombstone in the bottom-right of the screen is! I've been trying to kill everything on my own. I'll try summoning something using the spirit ashes. Of course, it's now time for me to work. I'll probably forget this nugget of information the next time I get to play!!

You beat the game yet?

I'm still running through the same old screens trying to get past that dreaded gate. There's a fully armored enemy guard with a feather in his helm and a huge shield and spear who keeps unleashing a can of whoop-@$$ on me. I almost defeated him once, but he swatted me with that big spear of his and I perished. Again. I need a mace or something! A big cudgel? I have no hope against even the minor bosses. Oh, well, I guess I'm perfecting killing the same six soldiers. Eventually, I'll be level 30 and still on the same screens.

Nah nowhere near, Im a looter and an explorer so i spend more time looking than anything XD. Im level 28 just now, Ive not beat the first main boss yet, Magit i believe. You can actually pass him by and go the other route but thats pointless i guess. Explore and unlock all the merchants etc, They have some new gear, The roundtable is also a useful place( Rest at the church of elleh at NIGHT, and the spirit will appear to take you there)

I'm trying to collect smithing stones at the moment so I can upgrade my scimitar to +3. Thanks for the tip regarding the roundtable. I tend to not rest my guy, Bob, too often. I'll have to try it out after I finish with the work I have today. Have fun playing!

Well, I finally found the roundtable area. I had to access it from a different area, though. It was a difficult trek to get to it. I bought a short spear. Wow. I love that thing. I also bought knight armor, which turned out to be a waste of ruins because the armor I had is better. I've not defeated a boss yet, but I'm getting there!
