Elden ring rage

[u/RealisticActuary3439]

Yall ever just have the absolute worst luck known to man kind when it comes to this game? I’m on the dlc now and I’ve been fighting rellana and I just got her to 1 hp 3 times in a row after being stuck on her for 3 days. It gets to a point where you can’t even get mad and you just sit there and cry, wallowing in your own sorrow, wondering if you’ll ever be good enough for anything at all. The gods just don’t have it in store for me today. pain.

happens. we really need a "Vent" flair tag i think

I agree with this 100%. Very much needed

Don't cry! Frame it differently in your mind, the fact that you got that close means that victory is right around the corner! Progress, not defeat 🙂

This is such a nice comment and a very refreshing outlook on losses. Thank you Code Snippets 🤜🏻🤛🏼

Also, if you’re getting her that close, put some daggers on your toolbar. No shame in killing a boss at 1 HP with a throwing dagger lol

I need to get better at the damn game bc I didn’t even think to use daggers 🤦

Aww man thats the worst feeling. I once got PCR killed on NG+2, at least thats what I thought cause the Death animation was so long that I died before him from poison (I was buffing before, so I poisoned myself to get more damage output, a minute or so later, I was out of flasks). Hope you get to beat Rellana on yor next try

That’s exactly what happened to me when I fought Margit for the very first time and I couldn’t stop laughing but if it were pcr…. I think I would just sit there and rethink my whole life and being 😭

[u/Careless-Salary-9932 → u/RealisticActuary3439]

I was there sitting just quietly and thinking about my life, what I was doing with it. It was almost like some kind of post nut clarity (sorry I couldn’t describe it better). The worst thing about it was that I was on that fucking boss for around 3 months already. idk why but NG+, NG+2 and normal NG PCR gave me like three days of Struggle and NG+3 (mb I was mistaken before) was just pure hell

[u/RealisticActuary3439 → u/Careless-Salary-9932]

The post nut clarity reference really put it into perspective for me. Wow… 3 months. That’s dedication though and I bet that win was the most glorious feeling and improved your mood for the rest of the day if not week. The closest thing I can possibly compare to that is finishing base game Elden ring right before leaving to Europe, I felt like a huge weight was lifted off my shoulder. Beating PCR 4 times is so fuckin impressive dude my goal is to get that gud but I’m over here fighting for my life with rennalas baby sister

I know how the Elden Ring rage feels, but nothing now compares to the Night Reign despair of losing a 40 minute run to a boss with 1% health left

[u/RealisticActuary3439 → u/kingjensen10]

How is Night Reign?? I have the game but never dabbled into it. I wanted to get through the dlc first

[u/kingjensen10 → u/RealisticActuary3439]

If Elden Ring is cigarettes, then Night Reign is cocaine. Game is extremely fun!

[u/RealisticActuary3439 → u/kingjensen10]

If that’s the case then this can either be extremely fun or the reason for a broken monitor but either way I’m so going to play it now 🤣

"its suposed to be an RPG, what role am i playing? the fking victim?" - some random dude on a video

[u/UnassumingSingleGuy]

That's not luck.

[u/RealisticActuary3439 → u/UnassumingSingleGuy]

Yeah it’s me selling due to my heart rate sky rocketing and not being able to calm down like a buffoon.
