I mean at the end of the day they just want people to experience the most fulfillment out of the game. If you plus 10 your mimic and spam L2 on overpowered ashes of war you don’t get a feel for the boss fight, learning their combos and when it’s safe to attack and shit like that. Obviously some people take it way too seriously but most come from a good place. What makes souls games enjoyable and what put them on the map is that feeling of “I did it” and when you cheese your way through boss fights by relying on these handicaps it can result in a less fulfilling experience.

@@Smnsnsnsnthing is, even the best weapons and spirit ashes in the game dont make it easy. They do make it less hard, absolutely. But certainly not easy. The thing that bothers them is they love the souls style of having to learn the boss mechanics and work within them in order to win, so they get upset that this game has weapons and other options to bypass those mechanics and they take it out on the people that use them. They wish things like spirit ashes didnt exist (even though you could still just coop), they screech at people that ask why we cant have a shared stash for all our characters (even though you can pass items to other characters using a mule in coop). Basically they're upset the game isnt a duplicate of DS3 with different bosses.

Playing Elden Ring in the right way: Look at all those items, spells, armor, weapons and summons, it should be fun to try them, but you can't do it, because you would be playing the wrong way, so discard 80% of the game content, and play with the simplest weapon that exists. Oh look, you explored the caves and now you are level 100, I'm sorry you are playing the game wrong, Elden Ring is only enjoyable if you are level 70 or less. That's right, the best way to enjoy the game is to play it the same way I did. I had to die 60 times to defeat a boss with a knife for no reason, but I felt special doing it, so if you don't defeat him the same way then you're not that special. Other guy who plays elden ring in the right way: Hahaha you are also playing elden ring wrong, the true way to play it is by parrying all attacks of the bosses, that is the true essence of the game Another guy who plays elden ring in the right way: You are all wrong, the true way to play Elden Ring is to beat the game without leveling up your character.

Ok i heavily disagree with the people who claim you arent "playing the game correct". But also the game is clearly not designed around beating bosses with the ashes. It completely breaks their AI. If they really did design the game around the ashes, more bosses would have the attacks radahn has, where he hits a wide area and doesnt get completely anihilated when his back is turned. Summon have been in every souls game and the games clearly havent been designed around summoing. Edit: also to add on I think the DLC shows a lot of bosses that do seem to be able to handle the ashes much much better, but i think for the most part the ashes clearly destory many of the main game bosses. Honestly my issue with the summoning mechanic I had was it just didnt feel satisfying, I feel the same way about the summons. Like some bosses go from intense battles to just a punching bag. I want to reiterate though that in no way is someone "playing elden ring wrong" for using them. They are a real mechanic in the game and people shaming others for using them is idiotic.

@@Defury8285 I don't think that means at all that ashes are the intended way to beat stuff. There is nothing wrong at all with using ashes, but indeed they make several bosses trivially easy (ofc it depends on the player, but it makes the game a LOT easier nonetheless) and the fact that they are easily and readily accessible doesn't mean anything. The point is that, because they are a very good tool to help newer players and less experienced ones, it is the obvious choice to make the ashes themselves easily accessible and impossible to miss, lest a player which is ALREADY struggling will have another barrier to entry, something the system seeks to diminish. And them being upgradeable is a necessity. If they had a set, unchangeable strength, many ashes would have to be made for different points across the game, meaning you would abandon every ash as soon as it became irrelevant, and these games really enjoy making it possible to use the exact same weapon and arsenal from start to finish. The system is closer to being a "easier mode", and you really do need to make it as easy to access as possible, as it is meant to aid the very players who need it the most.

They have always done a bad job at it in every game.

Elden ring is a game that is meant to be played where the player enjoys the game in their own way and to some people that’s making the game very hard by not grinding or using great weapons but to others it’s just experiencing the world by fighting a lot of the enemy’s and finding the best weapons possible to beat the game so I’ll never understand why people will hate on others for using good weapons or over leveling

Bloodhound Fang got me pretty far in my first play through, till I switched to Ruins Greatsword. What’s cool about thrusting swords and curved swords (including great curved swords like BF) is you can perform a feint. While charging a heavy attack, tap dodge to back step; it will interrupt the charged heavy to perform a unique attack with a simultaneous back step. Useful for hen you miss-time an attack window when you’re going for a stagger and need to get breathing room. It’s pretty much the same animation used with Quelaag’s sword in DS1 in lieu of the kick.

You can still play a pure int mage in a non cheesey way using spell combos and dynamic spells to style on bosses (soul stream's reskin in elden ring isn't the only sorcery that exists in the game, there's spells like carian slicer and piercer too), you also learn to appreciate the magic system and mechanics that way instead of either frothing at the mouth saying they're too OP or frothing at the mouth "owning le epic gatekeepers". It's like saying melee is OP in souls games when you use sellswords in ds3 for example. There's ways to play with your brain turned off.

I don’t get people that diminish other’s achievements because they didn’t do it the “right” way. One of the best things about Elden Ring (in my opinion) is that your build is the difficulty select. Not only that but as long as you don’t do every single possible thing to make it as easy as it can be, it’s still hard. I’m on my first playthrough and am using mimic for things like Horah Loux, but since I haven’t upgraded it and still am using the golden halberd I still have to put in hours learning the bosses patterns and combos because the summon often just dies instantly, so I still feel a huge sense of accomplishment when I beat bosses.

Let's be honest, the reason why people make a big fuss about it is purely ego. Someone else is completing a game that they think they're the best at because they did it the hard way and they don't feel special anymore if someone else beats it any other way. It's really sad because these are just video games at the end of the day. Nobody gives a shit if you beat a difficult game without looking at the TV.

Here is a hot take from me. Playing the game the intended way is simply not using the wiki and knowing where all the busted shit is. That means you must play the game and experience it on your own and without external help. You have to be the one who discovers the games world and utilise the items you find. So, playing with summons and some op weapon or talisman that shreds bosses is alright as long as you didnt purposefully search for it. Thats why i always play the game blind and dont use guides until i finish my playthrough. I usually miss some obscure or hidden things that would make me way stronger, but thats the point of it all. I play with what i have. And the best feeling ever is finding rare items on your own terms. For example, im at radahn rn and i still mostly have starter armor because i found a grand total of 2 sets that suck.

Here is the thing, I think it's kind of rewarding to play the hard way if it's your first playthrough. Even if you do not do it for every boss. When you die countless times you start to get the feeling of how the fights work, even though the bosses patterns are different, the way to avoid the attacks is always the same. I can say for sure that you can't dodge by reflex without experiencing several deaths, because the game doesn't allow that. When the attacks actually trigger and you press dodge at point-blank, the animation is too fast and will hit before your move even start (if you do it really quickly, you will even see the character move slightly trying to trigger the dodge). Once you have the experience, whether it be cheesing, using summons or very strong weapons, it doesn't matter, it'll be much better for you. You will start to get the feeling of when to dodge timed attacks, when to roll forward, jump, run or just to step to the side.

I was under the assumption that the wrong way to play a game is to play it and not have fun, and the correct way is to have fun while playing it.

It's also strange to believe the devs would put things in the game that you are supposedly not supposed to use.
