range tank in RS damn sorry to hear about that xD

This was my 3rd xbox game after halo 3 and gears of War 2. My dad took me to the midnight release, and my parents let me skip school. It was truly magical. Blew my mind that games could be like that.

I cannot give a like for those who like the non-co-op Halo

20:39 I actually made a stealth mage class a long time ago with quiet casting, invisibility, chain lightning, dual cast, and stealth bonus. It was quite effective and it wasn’t traditional so I really liked it.

19:15 this, this fricking send me! this joke zoom past me the 1st time i watched it (just like John117!)

Loved this!

Flanagan just got you a follow my King

Melee combat is quite bad. No combos, special moves, parries or dodges. Magic has variety but switching spells is highly annoying with the left/right hand system. You cant just keybind spells on 1-9 keys and cast them by pressing the key. All thats left is archery.

Hi , thanks for the video. About Skyrim magic and alchemy : I wish it was the same system as in Morrowind . You could create your own spells and potions nearly endless potential for most of the players.

3:20 I think the dark sign existed before Gwyn linked the flame. I wanna say there’s an item description that backs this claim up but I can’t think of it right this second.

Damnit, I managed to not cry until that 2nd kebab.

Hasdvar?? You imperial Dog.

I can't believe they did Scorch so dirty in the Batch.

broski went hollow 😔

What I find fascinating about each of your teammates deaths is that they're all ironic. Jorge, the most connected to Reach, dies in space and off the planet. Kat, the brains of the team, is sniped in the head. Emile, obsessed with clpse quarters and his knife, is stabbed in the back. And you, the character who was told to leave the lone wolf stuff behind, left as the last survivor forced to fight alone one last time after finally finding a team.

When you gonna review Madden 2008??

I used to play with you, and didn't even know it

Not me, (i always grabbed the sword that fired the laser)

Understanding that "if we kill this man WE can take this bow and shoot arrows at people" is more akin to the ancient laws of TTRPGs. The slightly-less-ancient laws of video games (which include laws such as "no matter how flimsy a chest or door, if it's locked it's locked and breaking through it is likely impossible" and "red barrel go boom") actually states that if we kill this man, we may get his bow, a halberd, a magic wand he never used, a unique artifact, his panties or fuck all; only way to find out is to default cube him. If you're gonna talk about dark Soul's weapon variety as opposed to Skyrim, I'd like to add to your point that while they also played identically for the most part, as far as aesthetic variety is concerned, Morrowind leaves Skyrim in the dust. Morrowind was less than great in that regard, and Oblivion and Skyrim didn't really evolve from that. And if open world fantasy RPGs that play way differently are allowed as comparison, the game my mind went to while you were building up to Dark Souls was Dragon's Dogma, which I think is a 2012 game, so still very much the same era. That game more interesting melee than Skyrim at the same time as also more interesting ranged combat (tell me one thing Skyrim archery has to offer that compares to actually aiming at a cyclops' eye or tripping up an enemy from afar with leg shots before moving up close to it), an also ok magic system and giant enemy climbing straight out of Shadow of the Colossus. Although I'd still say that Dark Souls has better melee than DD.

Just thought id let you know that Renalla has no stakes of Marika in Raya Lucaria because her husband Radagon left her for Marika (as far as she knows lol)

How I learned to love Elden ring 1. Golden fowl foot 2. Kill big dragon in Caelid 3. Finally actually have some stats to do something with, now I can enjoy the game instead of wasting 10 hours on bullshit

If you're casting flame at level100 destruction that's a you problem lmao

I've gotten to a point I can finish elden ring in exactly 3 hours and thirty minutes.

You went hollow never go hollow.

I recently did the same thing as this playthrough, went through and played the game how it was supposed to be played, via dialogue and basic open world play. Guess what? first day found a weird ass tree I missed on my first run (where I only focused on building the most powerful build and number maxing), hit the tree, demi human explains where he's from, I go to where hes from, beat the boss. But then I noticed at the end, you could either go back to the start, or continue to through the tunnels. I explore the tunnels, not expecting much other then loot, but then I go come out of the cavern, on a island, that always though you had to do some late game content to get to. And it has a DRAGON CULTIST TEMPLE, which is the coolest thing I have ever discovered by happenstance.

if he had just crouched during the tree sentinel poison cheese, he wouldn't have died and it made me laugh because i died the same way.

37:04 that's a bold statement when the Bed of Chaos exists

Been playing cyberpunk for my first time recently about 8 hours in with the lukeross mods for vr and it has been a blast too 5 games I’ve ever played !

The world and setting is brutal but it also captures the human element, everyone in universe knows the city is awful but hundreds of new people go to the city in droves everyday to try and achieve something, it's bad but it still pulls people in, and it's the same for the player, we know it's bad but it still pulls us in. Plus, as others have pointed out, if we're gonna live in a bad world then might as well enjoy the neon lights and mantis blares while we're at it.

Only the OGs know that in 2011 the most powerfull arrow was the daedric arrow.

Yup, this is a new channel I'm falling asleep to. Fuck yeah.

Ah yes, Reach a game that coasts very heavily off its atmosphere alone with bkand characters and voice acting that gets praised to high heaven because of its stellar atmosphere. It's a shame. I want to like this game more, but the amount of pretentious "tHe PlAnEt Is A cHaRaCtEr" and the undeserved praise of Noble Team as well fleshed out characters (when their characters never extend past archetypes, other than Jorge) is frustrating. Ultimately, I wish this game's praise was toned down a bit. I think its good, but some people make it out to be a masterpiece and that's just not true at all.

When the Clones were cool and had interesting lore... Before Filloni Wars 3D show came in, pilfered what it wanted and then changed it, leaving the rest behind.

I've gotten about 300 hours among nine or so characters in Elden Ring but I haven't beaten it yet. I keep getting to Godskin Duo or Elden Beast and falling out. Over the past three days I've made a new character and gotten almost twenty hours on him but I'm already burnt out. This game is really good but so draining to play.

Paladin goes to use divine intervention their divine intervention is a scorpion tank 😂

Hey! Great video! First I’ve seen of your channel! What’s some of your favorite Guy Gavriel Kay works of Fiction? Would love to know!

Man imagine if the game was remade to work like say L4D2. Co-op with an AI director slightly making each playthrough different! The dialogue is already perfect for that kind of replayability. But allas....

I agree with you so much but I like Skyrim world better than you! Don’t get me started on Ubisoft

I heavily respect you for that spider warning thank you so much! sidenote; great video!

ODST was the first Halo game I ever owned and it has cemented in my mind what Halo shouldve have been. Yes, Master Chief needs to stay the star and face of the series, but the ODST, in my mind, shouldve been the main vehicle we as players experience more of the universe going forward. The music, level design, characters, all are what made me fall in love with Halo. I wish they had more ODST games

3:23 goated reference.

So in short, the real elden ring was the friends we made along the way

Quelana is the still-humanoid sister sitting out by the pillar in Blighttown. The spider one is simply known as the Fair Lady.

What about conjuring a bow

I absolutely LOVE that you didn't level your vigor. Hell yeah. Great video

I think ive been playing a different kind of stellaris human supremacy always

23:12 Best f---ing f--- drop I've heard in a while. Good use and timing.

On the topic of summons I feel like this needs to be put to rest: they are there for you as an assist. A crutch a tool. Your first playthrough of any souls title should be simply to see an ending. That's it. Summons are there to help you reach that goal ans should be used. The beauty of souls games however is that there are 300+ builds you can try not even counting theme builds (as you lightly tapped into as "bug"). Each of these builds makes the game fresh and new again and is a reason to try for subsequent runs. This is when you start expanding your toolset. No longer your goal just to see the ending credits but to experience something new! To get better to get stronger to run new concepts and thematic builds. This is when you start putting the summons away. To expand your proficiency and skill. This is when the games REALLY open up. 90% of the people who bemoan the use of summons probably haven't truly soloed ornatein and smough in das1 and should be ignored. The summons are there for a perfectly valid reason and purpose. Use them and then move on.

I loved that little bit about cheif's and the Arbiter's relationship
