I never played any Souls games before Elden Ring, and while it was a bit frustrating at first, I came to enjoy the exploration quite a lot.

It’s not as hard as people make it up to be, as you can mostly just overlevel a bit if you hit a wall. Some of the boss fights suck, though. They feel unfair at times and I felt a bit lucky to beat some of them when they just randomly don’t do the hard-to-avoid combos.

The exploration is what makes the game for me. The universe and atmosphere is spot on. Trying out different weapons and builds is a lot of fun once you get to around lvl 50.

Not really, it’s just a fun expression. Kinda sounds like a propeller in the water.

Sit at home/at friends’ flats. Stand in public restrooms.

Good luck

As a European browsing the internet, this would not even surprise me if true

In Danish we have the same rules for concatenating nouns, like speciallægepraksisplanlægningsstabiliseringsperiode

This was how reddit was meant to be. Now every opinion the hive mind disagrees with gets downvoted to hell.

I’ve tried many times to convert my non-techy friends but it’s impossible.

It’s hard to argue with “literally everyone I know uses Messenger”.

I use SMS in Denmark with people I don’t know personally. Apps like Telegram or WhatsApp aren’t common here (yet) unfortunately.

Everyone has Facebook and uses Messenger. The absolute worst of all the choices…

Woah Usenet was used for other stuff than 1Gbps piracy?

I used it a lot for Eve Online. Lots of big alliances/corps in the game defaulted to XMPP. Some used IRC or Slack when it came out. Nowadays everyone uses Discord though.
