As a man who has never played Elden Ring and really knows nothing about it beyond it being the name of a game, the people getting all het up in these comments are very amusing. I think you guys proved her point.

I say stupid shit on purpose all the time but I don't pretend it's anything but.

Can I have an easy mode for veganism where I can still eat some forms of meat?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

If you care about animal suffering, remember not all animals are the same, there is a continuous line of intelligence between some grass and a dolphin, you have to decide at what point you value. Pig? Chicken? Egg? Insect? Salmon? Sardine? Fungus? Starfish?

From my understanding, cutting out most mammals from your diet would cut out most of the more intelligent animals you eat. (Unless you eat crows or octopus)

I was being facetious. I don't care about animal suffering.

Absolutely not

(Tbh, I think any reduction in meat consumption is good. You don't have to be a purist to make a positive impact and if people really cared about animals they would ostracize others for not being vegan 100% of the time)

I once made the mistake googling easy mode for Elden ring that someone gifted to me. Once I saw the gatekeeping on Reddit, I decided it's not a game for me and uninstalled. I'm sorry that I suck at video games

If you ever want to give it a shot, everything in the souls games can be trivialized if you just farm a little extra between the next fight.

That's not to say it won't be difficult at times, but if you prepare yourself well enough you can take just about anything.

Honestly just ignoring the YouTuber meme builds and pumping vitality to 40 right away makes all the souls games pretty approachable.

it gets much easier when you start treating it like a rhythm game where you get into dance offs with the enemies:)

and no need to interact with a game's community when it's shite, it's a single player game you can enjoy it however you want! (or don't, i'm not pressuring you, just don't want you to miss out on a good game because its fanbase is made of out assholes)

I don't want to redo the same thing a dozen times just to experience the story and world

Whoop, I mixed up dark souls 3 with Elden ring. Though, the same applies. I did like the gritty atmosphere and lore. The main issue I had was the learning curve and when trying to playing co-op there was no way to turn off strangers joining what I recall. But I bet by now there's mods for all of that like you said.

I have gotten all achievements for the game and this is the way. I am not even particularly good, just determined. It is a very good game, just dont read the comments on fextralife.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

Aren't you still forced to see other people's insane / spoiler messages even in "single player"?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

No, you can disable those too.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 hours ago

Hmm, I might have to take another look at this game then... Thanks!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

The messages are very limited and are almost entirely people congratulating you or saying something dumb like fort night

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 hour ago

alternatively

dog!
