Elden Ring

Update after about 40 hours of gameplay.  This game is enormous.  So many different things to discover and builds to try.  The combat is great as expected.  Over 80 bosses?  It is a masterpiece game, pretty sure even after my limited hours.  Slight warning that the learning curve is pretty high especially for someone not familiar with FromSoftware games.  It can be quite confusing for some time early but eventually it clicks.  One thing that I can say for sure is this game is incredibly hard to put down.  Addictive is an understatement.  If you like Souls type games you will love this, just need to get used to the open world and be patient for a bit.

After my 40 hours I have explored only 3 of the 5 areas and only like visited 2 of those 3.  Exploring is pretty fun.

There is a ton to explore, I have over 20 hours in and have only beaten the 2nd main boss. 

There are tons of optional bosses

Yeah, 83 bosses in total.  Pretty crazy.  Getting more INT and FAITH at the moment...gotta check out all incantations and sorcereries now.  Killer game.

Im on the full moon witch now. 

I had to take a break from the Bloodhound Knight Darriwill.  Spent over an hour trying to down him.  Boss is lightening fast and deadly.  His three hit combo stun locks me and its over.  Fun stuff.

That was a tough fight, im using his sword now. It took me quite a few tries to beat him. 

The full moon witch is a main boss, she can summon a copy of Darriwill during the 2nd phase of her fight. I just died to her and only needed to hit her once more to win.

Yeah, I kept getting Margit to a few hits and he would smoke me.  I have trouble taking my time with longer boss fights.  You would think that Darkeater Midir would have taught me something.  That boss was a wall for weeks for me.

Just wondering have you played Sekiro?  That game had really stiff difficulty in terms of bosses until you learn patterns.  Amazing game but crazy difficult bosses IMO.

No I have not, I have it on game pass for pc, but I have not played it

I just upgraded my gpu to a 3060 ti and elden ring is the first game im playing on it.

Cool, if you haven’t tried Dark Souls trilogy, Bloodborne (favorite game, masterpiece) and Sekiro I envy you.  Such great games to lose countless hours

    • To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. . 
    • The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
