Some of it's probably just me getting older, and some of it is because a lot of these bosses are way faster than in the older games and I have trouble keeping up I never needed this much help before. O&S, the Four Kings, the Ruin Sentinels, Artorias, I soloed all of them at least once.

Elden Ring DLC update: I have defeated Messmer By which I mean I mostly ran around ineffectually while two players and the NPC summon killed him I had a lot more trouble fighting bosses in Elden Ring than in Dark Souls, and I'm having more trouble with the DLC than the base game It's frustrating

I forgot how much of Vaan and Penelo figure into FFTA2 like it'd be one thing if they were just in some side quests or something, but they're straight up part of the plot Not content with ruining their own game, they travel to other lands to ruin other heroes' games

Only an hour til the Elden Ring DLC drops while I wait I'm playing FFTA2 One thing I forgot is that during the speed battles (where you compete with another clan to defeat a specific monster) you can just attack the other clan Since they're programmed as allies they won't respond in kind

Back then they hadn't decided exactly what Guinan was and I think they wanted her be some kind of anti-Q I remember it standing out to me in "Q Who" that she tells Picard that the Borg "will destroy you", not "destroy US" As though what happened to the Enterprise wouldn't affect her
