Margit nearly made me QUIT playing Elden Ring

[@lottabilotta]

Nice video! I can genuinely say I kind of hated this game until I beat the second main boss that starts with M. That boss broke me and made me realize how to overcome obstacles. Fantastic game. Im excited for you!

[@mostlymarlo]

Thank you! The style of game definitely takes some getting used to but wow I am falling in love with it, it's so tough but that's what's making it so rewarding!

[@Shazammo]

Sick video man! As a veteran of the souls games there is this strange catharcism woth watching new players take their first plunge into this mad world that we love. If you were keen on any advice, my major takeaway from this video is you would benefit a LOT from investing some levels into vigor. Specifically early game I suggest you try to rush like 25 as early as possible, and then aim through the midgame to get to 40, most people consider 40 a good breakpoint to stop because you get enough hp to survive most attacks in the game that arent designed to be 1 shots, you may find yourself wanting more if you eventually get to the dlc but 40 is plently to get you through the basegame. Looking forward to the next episode!

[@mostlymarlo]

I'm really glad you enjoyed the video. This game style is completely different to any other game I've played before and I love how rewarding making progress feels! Thank you for the tips, I've just got to the point where levels take a lot of runes but I'll try to put a lil more into my vigor!

Yeah, that guy was a tough one, only managed to do it after getting a cool new collosal sword from some poor bastard with a lion's face

[@isaiahren8450]

When fighting any enemy or just travelling into a new places i always be spamming my lock on just in case makes it easier to hit attacks too

[@mostlymarlo]

@@isaiahren8450 definitely, the only time I’ve found lock on to not be a good thing is when you stun a big enemy and I can’t get around them to the weak spot in time to hit them 😅

Genichiro in Sekiro almost made me quit. The fucking bastard literally made me a better Souls player.

The Fire Giant made me give up. I just can't get past him. I did everything that I could and I have no friends to help me

[@mostlymarlo]

That sounds brutal, hopefully you'll get them one day, just have to keep trying!

[@NullVoid-rm7jm]

@mostlymarlo I don't see how. Every rune farm in the game has been patched. I don't expect a ton of runes in no time but there's no way to farm runes at my level

[@thmasdraws]

@@NullVoid-rm7jmdid u do the bird method

[@Da1337Man]

If you've made it all the way to the fire giant, then you can't be that bad mechanically speaking. You probably just don't have the right talismans equipped. The flamedrake talisman greatly negates fire damage, and if you aren't doing so already, light load is the way to go because you generally don't want to be taking any kind of hits from him, regardless of what armor you're wearing. Remember that he is a slow, mostly stationary target and you are a fast, nimble boi. Don't hollow out fellow tarnished, you will be Elden Lord yet!

[@BasedHyperborean]

Sad tbh, just git gud bro
