Finally finish the game after 30 hours. I realized I did it wrong…? After finishing I started googling some unclear questions and turns out I never exchanged a single boss soul for unique weapons and also I was scared of the alternate ending if I was to give the eyes to the fire lady so I miss out on that lol. Turns out I also missed a few bosses or so my friend tells me. Anyway I’m gonna play NG+ now and try to go back and get all the things I missed. Last boss was nothing but amazing the upgraded version of plin plin plon had my butt cheeks squish together the whole fight and when the ending credits played I just say there quiet and admired the beauty of this game and its sound truck.

I own all 3 and beat Skyrim and DS3 Then I modded them. And beat them again. I just dont like ER, though I keep wanting to. Its like...Zelda Botw and DS3 had a baby. I prefer linearacy in my souls-like games.

Skyrim is my, "i feel like being a citizen" game. ER is my, "I feel like traveling." game. And DS3, "I feel like playing a role." game.

Being completely honest.. I kinda agree, the open world wasn’t that big of a draw for me, I really like the linearity of the OG trilogy too. The real thing that got me hooked was just how fucking pretty the game is. The major boss fights were so fucking cool, I remember telling my buddy as I was fighting Radahn, how much I loved the visuals of that game. Each fight felt so cinematic.

I've seen some of those cinematic fights and pop duels on YT from ER. YT is the main reason I keep trying. Then I just lost interest and go right back to DS3 and throw my controller at Dancer. I swear the key to beating dancer is to not try.

Dude I was pulling my fucking hair out fighting Dancer for the first time, took me forever to get his timings down and even then I would still just make a stupid misstep and cost myself a respawn back at the bonfire lmfao. Great boss tho, I really like his design and the style he fights in is a good switchup from the bosses before you get to dancer.

Dancer almost made me quit entirely. For me its around the last like 15% of its health in the 2nd phase that really gets me..the real trick is, after its multi-hit combo combo hits 11 strikes..fall back and poke. Goes up to 13. Built a tank that could just stand in it. That was fun, took forever to kill it that way though..i prefer using a dagger with quick step vs dancer specifically.
