222 hours in and I finally finished the game. Save scummed for the ending trophies to get the platinum but I got everything else naturally.

While I wasn't trying to avoid spoilers or anything, I wasn't following any guides so that I could discover as much as I could on my own. My brother helped me out with dropping hints for some quest stuff, though.

Used Spirit Ashes liberally, but I only needed to summon co-op help for Malenia. Fought her for days and was stoked when I finally beat her only to discover she has a second phase lol fuck that shit

This is probably my game of the year. I can't imagine anything beating it. Even after 200+ hours I still want to play it. I love Bloodborne but this is a close second for favorite Souls game.

Congrats! Yeah I fought Malenia for a few days then said fuck it and Mimic River'd her to death. I'll probably return for a magic build in NG+

I took down Margit and I'm working my way to Godrick. I'm maybe level 30. Wondering if I should go explore some more and level up a bit.

So I learn 40 hours in I have a permanent debuff from interacting with Fia?

Also I'd been playing the game offline since I didn't have PS plus, but I just logged in and got bombarded with all the pointless messaged and bloodstains, so I guess that shit is free now? Anyway it's really distracting and all seems useless.

Off the top of my head I don't recall any quest-specific or necessary items in those but there's some decent loot (talismans, spirit ashes, etc)

I think I got the Tree Sentinel armor set from destroying the chariots in one of the later ones

Probably leaves from the erdtree. You'll see that golden effect once in a while when you see golden leaves fluttering by.

From what I understand there's also buffs built into the multiplayer aspect. My brother said when someone kills a shardbearer or becomes Elden Lord it triggers the effect across the server or some shit

If you don't know where the checkpoints are it's easy to get lost and lose a bunch of Souls.

The game also directs you there way earlier than you should actually go there.

The repeat bosses in Elden Ring are just atrocious. And I know "alot of games have repeat bosses" but alot of games don't let these bosses kill you in 2 hits. You end up fighting the same boss fight dozens of times because oops this tree inflicts scarlet rot

the repeat bosses i'm fine with

the repeat main bosses i am less fine with

why are there two astels

why are there two mohgs

why are there two godricks

like, what was the reason for re-using them? why was it needed to reuse them? it doesn't even make sense for there to be a second astel, and the area he's in is just a generic mine.

what does mohg have to do with the three fingers? why is he guarding the entrance to it?

godrick, technically the second one is godefrey, but it's the same character model and animations. there was no reason for that, you could have just...not put him there, or at least altered him in some way. i get the lore reason behind godefrey existing, but there is no lore reason for him and godrick to be identical, especially since godefrey was already imprisoned before godrick even existed
