    How? How do you play video games professionally and chicken out of elden ring? Just grab moonveil or some other OP weapon.

      IMO the OP builds are the super fun ones to play.

      I spent a half a day farming up two Magma Blades and I’m just cruising through it. No thoughts, head empty, just DPSing down bosses before I even need to dodge.

        Most people playing elden ring: scared

        You playing elden ring: bridget-vibe

        I got bored after a few hours with the moonveil. I used dual katanas with bloodhound step for most of my run.

        Honestly fuck em Fromsoft gamers that think you’re playing wrong unless you do it level 1 with no weapon upgrades and no armor, uphill both ways in the snow. They’re challenging games but they’re also not necessarily that difficult if you let yourself use the shit the game gives you

        Elden Ring took the boss design that previous Souls games would have 1-2 of – which they used more for thematic and gameplay emphasis – and designed like at least half of the bosses like it. It’s so tiring to play compared to the Souls series (and DS3 was already kinda’ pushing it). Wouldn’t mind it so much if ER became the capstone to Fromsoft’s Souls-style action games as they experimented with more gameplay styles, but we know that won’t happen.

    Instead of Assmongold, can we focus on the Twitch streamer?

    Here’s the clip where Asmongold says that he’s not going to keep playing the Elden Ring expansion because it’s too hard. He says, “Of course I could beat it, I just don’t really want to”. His copium levels are off the charts.

        Most of us put the game down for the past year or two, but not Soldier of Godrick. He’s been busting his ass training in the lab, just waiting for a rematch.

      For years people have been touting a line about losing react time when you hit 23-24 years old, no idea if it’s apocryphal or not I haven’t personally seen a study or whatever.

      I lost interest in competitive / PvP games well before then, they could be right and I wouldn’t know. It isn’t a noticeable issue if you only play map pervert games.

      I have 100% gotten worse at video games after 25. I don’t think it’s reflexes, I doubt my reflexes have changed enough to matter for the gaming I do. I know at least part of it is lifestyle. I can’t put as many hours into gaming anymore, I’m out of school and tbh I’m a bit out of the habit of pushing myself mentally, which I think has made me a slower learner. Actually I’m glad I’m typing this out cause I hadn’t thought about it this and I’m sure now that I’m aware of it I can turn the trend around.

      there’s still like 40 year olds that can play Street Fighter and other fighting games professionally that still require insane reactions times

        Well that and reaction time isn’t quite as important in fighting games as people think.

        Most shit is educated guesses and conditioning. Reaction time helps, sure, but isn’t as important as folks say.

        That doesn’t really make sense. Professional musicians need to have WAY better reflexes and their careers usually only end when they’re old as shit.

    You know, if we all just stop talking about Asmongold and stop posting articles about him, we could stop seeing articles and media about him and our lives would be improved.

    He is just gamer Vaush, treat him accordingly.
