Oh I got the stone key to unlock this first fog door. It's in the tutorial area so it's got to be easy, right?
I fuckin soloed Margot in the first ten hours. It's even an achievement on my Steam. They redid the cloud storage or some shit because there was a patch bug. I seriously no lifed it as it dropped got good armor set from Florida. I forget the zone. Beach and an annoying boss I used the wolf summons to beat.
The patch ERASED everything. I still have the achievement on my steam account. Emailed them. They can't do anything. Never played it again.
That one red area to the East of the starting area: ☠️
(I've forgotten all the map areas, haven't played in almost a year.)
Don't forget the rot swamp in the middle that tricks you into thinking you can bypass it on horse
Im really glad that I didn't play elden ring when it came out and the hype was real instead I got it at the right moment in my life and have been enjoying it over the winter like a fine wine.
A funny thing I just did was to try and get to the ::: spoiler spoiler lift of rold to burn the tree or whatever ::: through the sewers. Having only ever played DS1 my intuition was "Hmm this is a souls game so I bet I need to suffer through the shitty sewers to get to the next part of the game like blighttown"
Needless to say, I got all the way down to that ::: spoiler spoiler naturalborn of the void space insect thing and murked it ::: before I considered maybe theres another way to the lift. It had never occured to me to just follow the main road through lyndell to the big door and just open it. I felt equally stupid and kind of proud that I basically discovered like 3 new underground areas and beat that omen prick fair and square when I was probably underleveled. I don't use magic or spells or grease in souls games just good old fashon sword and shield and health potions until it dies or I die.
good old fashon sword and shield and health potions until it dies or I die.
I'm the same way. No tricks, no fancy shit. Just manfight until I get good enough to beat them.
Not sure if it works on wine but it works on proton. Source : me, I played elden ring two days ago on steam. Even the multiplayer online component which uses EAC works.
