I've never managed it, but it is theoretically possible to punch that intro werewolf to death. Or just juke it and run out of there. The rest of the level isn't much fun without a weapon though, and dying is the easiest way to get one.

if you do not scramble through the first playthrough of a fromsoft demon souls type game like a shithouse rat (without looking up "builds" and "metas" and "secrets" on the internet) you are doing yourself a mondo disservice

I think this is the main thing. They don't care about public perception of health policy, that doesn't affect them at all. What they care about is people having an excuse to evade the surveillance panopticon.

Elden Ring isn’t actually that difficult despite its reputation. The game gives you a staff that shoots blue lasers. If you choose not to shoot blue lasers at everything and instead carry a big sword so you look like Guts from Berserk, I respect that, but it’s a choice
