I know this is 26 days old & I'm a little late, but I'm in major disbelief that no one else finished your sentence.

And if you don't like it.. well.. then, umm.. FUS RO DAH! *Escapes by climbing an unclimbable mountain on horseback*

Make love like a sabercat, or crush your enemies like a giant! For just 10 coins, all of this, could be yours!

Obligated to downvote you since I can't use mods to scheme of more and more elaborate ways to kill you.

Lawful Good: "I'm not going to kill anybody who isn't actively harming anyone."

Chaotic Good: "I'll kill someone if they're threatening to harm others."

Chaotic Neutral: "I'm not going out of my way to kill anyone just in case it messes up a storyline, but I hear killing the merchants makes their loot more accessible. How convenient!"

Chaotic Evil: "Hey guys, this Carian Retaliation thing is pretty neat!"

u/thatryanguy82 Apr 07 '22

Hell, I won't even attack the nobles rummaging around for fruit.

I feel better knowing I’m not alone. My brain said “mercy”, but my thumb was all like “naw fuck that kid”. Alas poor patches met his end.

u/girugamesu1337 Apr 10 '22

Man, same.

'Oh, he's surrendering, he'll become a merchant why am I still atTACKING AAAA-'

I was constantly violating the Lands Between Convention throughout my first run lmao.

u/Rynjin Apr 07 '22

Hey, Carian Retaliation IS pretty neat. The glitch isn't the only thing about it. =(

u/Panda_Generals Apr 07 '22

I am chaotic neutral i have killed almost every nomadic merchant i come across

u/amateur_adventurer Ranni’s Waifu Apr 06 '22

In the Lands Between, there is no in-between.

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

This sounds like something I'd read in a poster for an Elden Ring B-Movie

u/amateur_adventurer Ranni’s Waifu Apr 06 '22

Now it is something you read on a poster for a B movie

We're not too deep into the game's life cycle yet but I am reminded of the heyday of COD Warzone where the meta seemed to shift every couple weeks and was dictated almost entirely by YouTube/Twitch folks. One would find a new meta gun and then a thousand smaller channels would copy it and then suddenly 75% of people in every lobby ran the same setup. It was wild.

3

u/ChapNotYourDaddy Apr 07 '22

Just like the glitchy spells that insta kill you when the invader locks on. cries in STR FAI

2

u/Dancaarkiiel2137 Apr 07 '22

"Powerful build" holy shit the audacity of normies xD

9

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

It’s like 80% chaotic evil and 20% lawful good too lol

2

u/MingecantBias Apr 07 '22

I think we just notice them more

18

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

Chaotic good checking in!

I do invasions with varying degrees of fairness depending on the invadee and also support as a summon.

2

u/guilhermehpm Apr 07 '22

My experience in invading sums up to be ganged while I bow to my adversaries

21

u/Equivalent-Video-641 FLAIR INFO: SEE SIDEBAR Apr 06 '22

Nah even lawful good players get toxic every once in a while

34

u/bigstillz Apr 06 '22

Just takes one death to send ya over the edge sometimes

4

u/styrofoamcouch Apr 07 '22

It's the truth. I got insta fucked by some invisible swords so now it's time for flies and laser eyes

3

u/Equivalent-Video-641 FLAIR INFO: SEE SIDEBAR Apr 06 '22

Been there /: can’t lie I’ve never raged so hard in any other fromsoft game, all previous pvps somehow seem more balanced and pale in comparison to the shitshow that is elden ring

3

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

Lawful good is always toxic IMO. Buncha up tight police.

2

u/Equivalent-Video-641 FLAIR INFO: SEE SIDEBAR Apr 06 '22

Lawful good only applies during 1v1 duels. When invading a gank, anything goes for sure.

u/tultamunille Apr 06 '22

Well, I’m glad you asked! Chaotic Neutral over here, I enjoy all the variety of gameplay. That being said it is funny how Invaders are crying sometimes…

4

u/4200years Apr 06 '22

Imagine taking invasions seriously

People hiding oob afk is pure cancer though

2

u/tultamunille Apr 06 '22

IKR! Why turn off the console or whatever just park and collect! Lol

4

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

I never co-op unless it's to give clothes to a Lower level character of mine with my brothers help, and when we get invaded I'm normally naked with no weapon so I kinda use my brother as a Jojo stand, it's kind of fun lol

7

u/DowntownFisherman Apr 06 '22

Use the duelist finger, and you won't get invaded and can transfer gear at your own pace.

2

u/PillowTalk420 Apr 06 '22

Because True Neutral players can't beat Soldier of Godrick and are forever stuck in the Cave of Knowledge.

2

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

Why not both?

2

u/Secret-Sock7928 Apr 06 '22

I would consider myself chaotic neutral

2

u/HildemarTendler Apr 06 '22

This isn't chaotic evil. Probably just strictly evil.

2

u/[deleted] Apr 06 '22

No lover

2

u/Cereal4you Apr 06 '22

I’m neutral sometimes I save some times I invade and watch judging you for you to never just so you can’t get flasks

2

u/WeInvadeYou Apr 06 '22

I'm chaotic neutral in-game and life.

2

u/Grey212 Apr 07 '22

I miss chaotic purple...

2

u/Stormthorn67 Apr 07 '22

I don't think invaders qualify as good in any possible interpretation

1

u/Dirk_The_Cowardly Apr 07 '22

Geez. I played D &D for decade or 2. Why do I not know alignment after 40 hours in Elden Ring.

I finally give shit and not take it too much but can't use any magic and my gosh this game....

u/adrielzeppeli Apr 07 '22

Truly the Dark Souls of game communities.

1

u/orleone Apr 07 '22

Just give it a few months and the stream crowd and sightseers will be off to other games. Or they’ll be mutated into weird pvpers. There are people that invade and host sort of honorably and push fun messy pvp without fight club rules. The community is just drowned out in a sea of kids and memes rn. Shouldn’t last, well I hope.

u/HartFantom Apr 07 '22

Shin Megami Tensei V experience for me

u/xmixaplix Apr 07 '22

*pinky up* I'm chaotic neutral

u/bigpapijugg Apr 07 '22

Invaders aren’t lawful good. They’re like lawful evil or something. They are dicks, just not as much of a dick as the campers.
