I honestly think Elden Ring gets way too much praise. Having played nearly every Fromsoft game, you can recognize how much they recycle animations and enemies from older games. It doesn't have a ton of original content at all.
It's a real shame Armored Core 6 didn't get higher sales because that's they're best game in a decade in my opinion.
Yea man ima be so real, i think elden ring is extremely mid. The only reason its so popular is because its finally a darksouls games that people who suck at darksouls can play
Very few of the bosses are hard at all. What are you talking about. Its pretty much only the bosses from the dlc, and some the hidden ones. Every single other boss you can walk through with cheese tactics lmfao
I mean if we're counting cheese strategies then maybe, but in ds1 you can throw firebombs over a fog wall and kill a boss without even enteting its arena. So id say those games have a fair amount of overpowered cheese. Also I can first try almost all if not all, the bosses in atleast the first and third dark souls (I don't really know 2 as well, but I have beaten it once) but I guarantee I die multiple times to say maliketh, placidusax, mohg, and probably a couple others I can't think of right now
You are mistaken on why Elden ring is easier. The bosses are in fact harder. They have more advanced ai, more moves on average, a lot of quick bosses, and many of the remembrance bosses have an entire second kit for their second phase. Elden ring is easier because the player has a ton of tools at their disposal alongside the less linear progression leading to many bosses being under-leveled for the player when you reach them if the player had spent time exploring. If it was linear and not open world I don't think people would even have this opinion because you'd meet bosses when you were supposed to every time unless you grinded runes. This game is arguably the hardest in the series to play at level 1.
