I just killed a massive boss dragon I found by attacking its tail with my bleed dagger for 3 minutes. It didn’t move. I got 50,000+ runes and 5 dragon hearts.
I don’t feel even a little bad.

The game doesn't properly update in Steam. It reaches 100%, the update bar is still in it's infancy. I don't know what's going on there, but it's annoying.

One thing that I really have come to appreciate is the idea of the Ashes of War, as well as how they’ve implemented weapon affinities.
You can basically focus entirely on one weapon, and switch out its affinity without having to spend additional resources and also not needing to deal with multiple versions of the same weapon. However, the Whetstone Knives that you need to use in order to change the affinity, as well as many of the Ashes of War, have to be discovered in the world, so it rewards exploration.

They'll be some purist who'll say "You haven't beaten the game until..." I say f*** that. In this game take every advantage you can get. The game will piss on you if you let it. Cheese away, my friends.

Cheese away, my friends. Yeah, I'm not gonna feel bad in a game where a boss can kill you by sneezing on you no matter how high your level is. Once I figured out I could lure that guy before Renalla to the upper floor and sparta kick him down a pit it became his problem, not mine.

I know Fromsoft gets knocked sometimes for not emphasizing graphical fidelity and reusing assets, but hell, looking down at the Atlus Plateau from a mountain is one of the most breathtaking things I've seen in a game in a long time.
I think this game looks incredible.

I love how the lost capital goes full old-school Dark Souls and gives you one bonfire for the entire opening area that’s only connected by a long looping maze to a locked door.
(No I don’t really love it, I want my bonfires back every 20 steps!!!)

With all the amazing weapons throughout this game … I’m close to endgame and about to max a dagger I found on a random enemy about two hours into the game. 😂

I try out all these new weapons but usually go back to that one when I'm in trouble.

Base damage is junk, but attacks FAST and has 76 bleed at this point. Hit them with magic when they charge in, get a few quick slices for Bleed/burst damage and retreat/repeat. Throw in a full Bloody Slash when I get a bigger opening. It’s nice.

I gotta say, Caelid at night is about the most uncomfortable I've been playing a game in a long time.
