ive dipped my toes into most soulsbornes (dark souls, bloodborne, sekiro) as in a boss or two in.
now that i just got to the valley of the giants i feel like im fairly deep into elden ring, but i've been wondering if im going to go for a ng+ run or what it would be like to back track and actually finish the other games.
Elden Ring is more of a successor to Dark Souls.
Sekiro is like Tenchu mixed with Souls and has one of the best combat systems ever. Overall a lot more fast paced and action-y than Dark Souls.
Would you say that Sekiro is overall better than Elden Ring?
I personally preferred the faster pace combat of Bloodborne over DS3. In addition, I kinda found the DS3 world boring compared to Bloodborne (excluding Anor Londo and Smouldering Lake)
Even DS3 and Bloodborne are still full priced. That price ain't going down for a while.
Just realized that
i got DS3 on on PSN at Christmas for $20 and Bloodborne at Best Buy for $40 last summer

Yeah they go on sale pretty often at least
But tbh if any game is worth full price it's these

They're both great just really different. Sekiro follows the same formula as DS3/BB only there's more verticality involved (you get a grappling hook
) and the fighting is a lot more fast paced. It's a parry/rhythm based system.
Elden Ring is a monster. Like 80 hours on your first playthrough at least and the world is like 10x the size of the other games. The combat is basically Dark Souls 3 improved in every way. You can use jump attacks, more weapon arts, more spells, etc.
This is interesting cause I did notice that the amount of damage the bleed dogs do is just absurd

Sometimes the controls of this game irritate my soul
Feel like the lock on aim has been abysmal since these updates. Wish the sprint button wasn’t the same as the f***ing dodge roll button
Asmon was talking s*** saying he’s not gonna have any problems with Malenia and that he’s so good at the game, now look at him

I started playing a new game of Sekiro for like the 45th time and I think this is my favorite From game tbh. Elden Ring extremely close second I just absolutely love the deflect/weapon art/prosthetics combat so much it’s so hard to sway away from it once you experience it, whether that be the first or 200th time
Because the game and adventure is so long you forget who this b**** is and what she’s got to do with anything.
Like yeah at the very start of the game she says bring me to the tree but then 80 hours go by and you only see her 5 more times. Who are you again??
I don’t need her to say anything but maybe just chill by the grace with me every time I rest so I don’t forget your face and what I’m supposed to do for you. She doesn’t have to say anything.
maybe you did lol
this b**** pops up enough and when she does it actually feels worthwhile instead of "oh new dialgue option now"
I wanted to work my way up to Elden Ring but my disc reader in my PS4 is acting weird + Sekiro is full price on PSN rn
sekiro has nothing to do with elden ring, gameplay is an outlier compared to the others

Yeah tbh it would be nice if she just showed up everytime you rest at the grace, maybe have some dialogue and animation for leveling up, small things like this can go a long way

Yeah Sekiro is overall the better game imo

Bloodborne is free on PS5 if you got PS+
