I've taken down at least three evergaols now. git gud scrub (am I doing it right?).
I'm pumping in the hours because they took the shit bits out or at least mitigated them so that when I'm playing it's actually possible to enjoy the gameplay, it's no coincidence I've had fun at pretty much every moment (including many failures) so far except for the one fight where they went right back to their old ways.
Elden Ring to me is basically Witcher 3 exploration with a pared back storyline and much tougher boss fights which puts it in a very high tier of all time games for me. I will never ever have any desire to play the previous games though.
Having just unlocked the ability to respec I desperately need to rethink my build as I definitely went too broad with how i've spread out my levels. and I have a chest full of cool shit I wanna try out now.
I am rather enjoying my bearded brethren's dislike, yet still pumping in the hours!
I have found a couple of evergaols and only beat one (dude gave me a monstrous bleed sword, but I haven't the arcane to use it)
Other one is just after the monkey troll thing that drops down with the archers early game.
Need to rethink my build strat, was going full strength sword and board, (sword is now a battle hammer) but not sure it is going to work for me long term.
Unless I unlock a colossal sword soon...
