Aldritch was once a Lord of Cinder who amassed an amazing amount of power by consuming the souls of his followers in Iirythill. When he was revived to once again assume his throne at the outset of Dark Souls 3, he instead chose to invade the remains of Anor Londo and consume the soul of Dark Sun Gwyndo
Miquella was cursed with eternal youth. Despite many attempts, Miquella could not reverse his or his sister’s curses. This led him to abandon the Golden Order and the Erdtree. As an alternative, he planted and grew the Haligtree, possibly Elden Ring’s true parasite , in which he embedded himself in an effort to finally grow into adulthood and eventually cure Malenia’s Scarlet Rot. This plan was cut short when his step-brother Mohg abducted him from the Haligtree shortly after the Shattering be
There are a few historic weapons that don't quite fit into any of the archetypes listed above, but could probably be introduced in Elden Ring's future DLC without disrupting gameplay balance. Stone-hurling weapons such as Slings or Sling-Staffs could give players access to a new type of ranged weapon while also letting FromSoftware introduce new item-crafting options (sling bullets made from glowing ruin fragments, crystals, meteor fragments, half-cooled magma, etc). Javelin and dart-hurling stick tools such as the Pre-Columbian atlatl could become the basic of new melee/ranged hybrid weapons in Elden Ring , letting player clobber foes with one-handed attacks, then launch arrows and bolts at distant targets with the two-handed weapon skill. Finally, DLC could introduce a few more gunpowder type weapons to the game without making Elden Ring feel like Bloodborne 2.0 ; history is full of examples of primitive hand-cannons, fire-lances, and primitive rocket launchers that co-existed on the battlefield with traditional medieval methods of
Said to be the first to die at the dawn of the Age of Fire, Gravelord Nito claimed a Lord Soul and became an embodiment of pestilence and death. Encountered beneath the Tomb of the Giants in the first Dark Souls game, Gravelord Nito is an intimidating foe capable of summoning ethereal swords from the ground and commanding a skeleton a
Since the Omen twins were hidden away, Godwyn is most likely to be the only one to have his own children, but there is no evidence pointing to how many children he had. However, it is known that Elden Ring 's Godrick the Grafted , whom Morgott seems to be assisting disguised as Margit the Fell Omen, is part of the Golden Lineage but only a distant offshoot. This points toward his being at least a great-great-grandchild of Godwyn’s. Given Godrick’s meagerness, though, it is more likely to be a more distant relation than t
The Cerulean Tears' counterpart, the Flask of Crimson Tears, is the outright required potion type to use throughout Elden Ring . Players of FromSoftware's past Souls-like games will be more than familiar with how it functions, as it's the equivalent of the Dark Souls series' Estus Fl
Given the scales of each of these games' respective worlds, the checkpoint systems function differently. They're almost non-existent in Demon's Souls , so players will get sent as far back as the beginning of the level if they're not careful. It's an exciting challenge to an extent, as it emphasizes the tense Soulslike Atmosphere and encourages players to explore the environment to unlock hidden shortc
Music and musicians are a strangely beautiful part of Elden Ring 's gameplay ambiance; the nomadic merchants scattered throughout the Lands Between play ditties on their fiddles to lure customers in, the pages of Leyndell Royal Capital weave haunting melodies with their wooden flutes, and certain winged bat creatures in the open world will sing mournful Latin dirges about the glories they lost. **Elden Ring ** DLC boss weapons modeled after string, brass, or woodwind instruments of these NPCs would not only let players show off their character's "talents" in front of summoned players, but could also logically justify the creation of new weapon Skills designed to strengthen allies or distract enemies in true Bard fash
One of the best PlayStation 4 exclusive games, FromSoftware's Bloodborne introduced everyone to Yharnam, a desolate and crumbled gothic city filled with deranged humans and nightmarish creatures. While there are no plans for a sequel, many fell in love with the dark and twisted world that the developers crea
As anyone would expect from an open-world game, Elden Ring 's traversal is a major change to how players navigate the world of Boletaria in Demon's Souls . The latter uses its checkpoints and hub word to travel between a level and its areas, while Elden Ring is one large, seamless sand
