That was the bosses ability. It summons goats to taunt you

True…

The targeting system being retarded makes any fight with multiple enemies very cumbersome

Also some of the run backs are very bad

no

you cant complain about the runbacks in this game

this game has like 0

runbacks

at all

(Radhans entire phase 1 is a runback)

radahans isnt really a runback, but thats fair

but even then

its nothing compared to some of the fucking

CANCER

Skeleton blade dungeon

runbacks that have existed before

thats only a runback for the secret boss

and even then

I just think every boss should have a stake

thats not bad compared to some shit in other souls games, if anything its a massive improvement imo

I don’t understand why they wouldn’t

It’s basically, take your time, go slowly so you take no damage and are fully ready for the boss

Or run and probably get hit a few times

you always just run

and hope you dont get hit

I just don’t get it

Why not just stake up

There’s not a lot of skill in run backs most of the time

Especially with ranged enemies

It’s just a time waster

And annoyance

midir four kings bed of chaos capra demon red smelter gwyndolin seath pinwheel (if you die to him somehow lmao) executioners chariot

all of these

are 10x worse

than anything in elden ring

Okay

As I said before

Just because they improved

Doesn’t mean it’s good

A lot of the mechanics of this game feel like time wasters

runbacks are sorta a part of souls, while I like the stake system I still enjoy runbacks so idk

You enjoy runbacks

theyre a nice break between hard bosses, and usually the bosses that HAVE runbacks arent actually that difficult

Ideally I’d just choose an option to spawn directly back into the fight

Fallingstar beast surrounded by shrimp in that trap dungeon

youre just throwing yourself at the wall then constantly, and that makes sense for something very very hard or has a slow phase 1

i think the fallingstar beast runback is pretty bad, but i also think thats a bad bossfight in general

The only thing I will concede for elden ring is that a lot of the combat feels how it should

Which is usually good

But I think combat is almost the only thing they do right

Everything else is done in some weird way

i think the horse feels better

than most open world games

Where I don’t see how they could have come to the conclusion

(It’s worse than pokemon lol)

giving the horse a double jump is something all games should do

Pokémon does that!

ok

and?

But also you can fly

And swim

ok... and

Don’t you like how they handle water

In elden ring

I sure think that’s

Cool

i dont really mind it

its an obvious thing isnt it

dont go into the giant pit

It just feels like a lot of options they take are some of the least optimal ways to handle things

youre wearing heavy as fuck armor anyways

how would you even swim

I’m not saying to swim

ah yes, let me swim with my 60kg hammer

Just make it more of a gradient

And just a

I do not mind people thinking BotW is better than elden ring

Oh shit I fell into the dark ocean abyss

idk i dont really see the issue, its an obvious drop off
