TL;DW: Journalists played Elden Ring on Switch 2 on gamescom. They weren’t allowed to record gameplay but performance is really bad. Tons of stuttering and reportedly dips to <20FPS in cases.

    Easier and harder are not the goal posts being discussed.

    You yourself say the boss battle was EASY with a shield and pokey build. That is a whole different discussion than, “some builds do better against certain enemies”.

    Stop strawmanning the argument, numpty.

      Back when game design was an actual artform, having a boss who’s easy with one build but terrible against another up-to-then valid build indicates BAD GAME DESIGN

      “easy”

      easy

      EASY

      Are you kidding me right now? Is this a bit?

      He said easiest playthrough. Because towershield plus pokey thing means you take no damage and can poke everything to death, slowly. Veeeeerrrry slowly. You must not do soul like games.
