I just beat this guy. Walked in with a colossal hammer and pancaked him. Took two tries because the first time I didn't realize he didn't turn into the fat one, but it was a summon instead.
I don't really have much advice, really. Run sideways towards him when he spams projectiles, dodge into the big projectile, ignore his summons since your big hammer will hit them too anyway.
I'd readily risk death for the opportunity to be one of the first people to see Jupiter with their own eyes.
Still kicking.
I guess it depends on what you consider an S tier space. I haven't been to Jupiter but I hear they have a cyclone on the pole surrounded by 5 other cyclones. Being in orbit of that would be a (for lack of a better word) religious experience.
S tier? This place is like a C at best. There are some S tier places but there are some G tier places too.
As I said I don't think I'd achieve anything by arguing my point. Imo single difficulty is or should be part of the genre. It's totally ok for others to also just not play it at all.
I'm a huge Dark Souls and Elden Ring fan, but there's no excusing Fromsoft's code quality. Under no circumstances should someone be able to execute invalid code on someone else's machine. I'm a software dev myself and the sheer ingenuity of effects 'hackers' can implement is astounding to me. Co-op is also just terrible, IMO. Unreliable, buggy, and kind of unrewarding that you have to do everything once for every participant. Performance has never been all that good, but it's almost expected for console ports nowadays, which I wish was not the case.
They did update the requirements on pc. I've had to take my game down from high to high with motion blur off and lower quality water and shadows. I hope they make improvements.
I am one of those people who prefers that the game only has one difficulty. My friend and I both played Phantom Liberty, and unfortunately he didn't enjoy it as much as I did because at higher difficulty he struggled too much with combat in a way he didn't find fun. I could argue my point for a while but I doubt I'd achieve anything.
I can see your point on balancing. A great deal of mobs (not even bosses) in the dlc early game can poise or recover from a heavy blow too fast (not talking about damage). It's almost like they're tuned for greatswords and greataxes. That's fine for me, I didn't mind the respec, but other people do.
As for the difficulty in the DLC, it is more difficult, but IMO not as bad as it's made out to be. Early (for me) in the day yesterday I heard people were fighting Messmer, and some have even beaten the final boss. Fucking how? You could only have done that if you did a boss rush and no exploration. People did not play the game and did not have the skills to play the way they were trying.
Whatever levels you have in the base game, they are nearly irrelevant until you get to about your 5th blessing. People need to run around and find those upgrades. I wonder if people even know that some random mobs drop them.
You get several larval tears in the early areas. If you're out at night, you can find little glowing cemeteries with larval tears in them.
I myself have respec'd my character, and have had to give up a few incantations that I used to rely on, but now that I have more of the blessings, they're finding their way back into my repertoire. Thinking back, I'm not as convinced anymore that the incantations were the problem, it's very likely that I just didn't have enough blessings.
I took down a certain knight in a tomb who wielded a repeating crossbow and a greatsword. It took me maybe 30 tries with 0 blessings. I wonder how many tries I would need with 11.
It's not as much of a thing but people do object fines, most commonly mail-in fines when the owner wasn't driving.
Elden Ring's DLC
That doesn't mean anything in a lot of countries.
You know full well I mean up close.
