OCH Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 I like the diversity of Ash Summons. Initially, I stuck with the early game wolves for a while. Only to learn later, they suck. By the time I tapped out, I had a rotation of about four of them. Mimic Tear (the one referred to as "easy mode") I didn't really take to. Tried him on the Gargoyles and Niall. He just seemed to kamikaze without any significant damage. Whether this is due to the nerf, I don't know. But I like the idea of the Ash Summons a lot more than other players in my game.

Nag Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 The way it's going I may not see an ending after all... I'm up to the final boss now and it's laughably stupid in how much area he can move around in, all while I'm stuck doing feeble little rolls. The last few hours with this shitty boss run is really doing its best to take away all the goodwill I had to be fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 That boss feels like they designed it for a horse but accidentally set the horse code to 'false' when compiling. Everyone hates that boss. I did consider cheating here as well, I must say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I managed to get to the second phase on my own with Ash summons but I just wanted it to end so summoned in a couple of folks for that boss and took him out very easily. Stick at it, you'll get there, summon some folks for help if you're in a bind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nag Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Believe me I tried, there were either no gold tiles or the game kept doing its annoying cannot summon thing.🙄 I'll be having another crack at it later, keep your fingers crossed that my controller survives.

Nag Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 And done!!! Got it second try today... with two co-op summons #sorrynotsorry. Ended up with the "age of the stars" ending that kicked off just as I received a phone call so I didn't even get to see it properly.😂 For the most part I actually really liked that, there were a few parts that really frustrated but like Bloodborne the fact I wasn't wondering around aimlessly helped out a lot. If someone had said I would put 90 hours in to this a few months ago I'd have laughed them out of the room. My ending stats... And a scenery shot for good measure... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OCH Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 One thing I did want to ask, now a few more people have the game under their belts. Did anyone bother with the paintings? I must admit, after finding the first few. I soon forgot they were even a thing?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nag Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Think I found two... and I still have no idea what they were supposed to be for/do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCH Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Same. They are supposed to be treasure location maps. But they get lost so quickly in my inventory, I just forgot all about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiofloyd Posted June 29, 2022 Author Share Posted June 29, 2022 I think I found a lot of them just from exploring anyway. Usually it was a treasure on a dead body right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 I found a lot of them but didn't bother with any of them to be honest lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Did not do painting stuff A bit OT maybe but it seems like a lot of people here were disappointed in this, except maybe nag lol I was thinking tho, for a sequel I wouldn't mind them to try open world again and go for something with a little more danger in the open world, I'm thinking a hybrid between BOTW and dragon's dogma where you always have to prepare to go somewhere and when it gets dark it gets dangerous as all the creeps come out at night, Berserk style, so maybe you set up camp and wait it out. Fast travel would work like a sort of silt strider system, not wherever you want This is sorta what I expected this game to be, tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DisturbedSwan Posted June 29, 2022 Share Posted June 29, 2022 Said it before, but yeah, easily my least favourite From game (post renaissance era From), just so boring at times. Too big for its own good. I really hope they don't do a sequel to this and go a different route, but I think it's somewhat inevitable given how well it sold. If they do do a sequel I hope the open world is much improved and much more involved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogma already did it better, even Monster Hunter did it better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might irk some of the fanboys if there is no character creator though. In a similar sentiment to @DisturbedSwan. For the moment, I've tapped out of ER. When I even maintained enough interest in Dark 2 to finish that all the way through. That's saying something about my enjoyment of this game.

radiofloyd Posted July 2, 2022 Author Share Posted July 2, 2022 This is pretty boring now so I probably won’t play it for more than an hour a day. In the snowy area at the moment. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
