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

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

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

[–] JamesTBagg@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

No, you can disable those too.

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

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

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

alternatively

dog!

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.

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.

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.

[–] lud@lemm.ee 2 points 17 hours ago

There are probably some mods that make it easier if you want to play.

And yeah game communities suck sometimes.
