The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has a story that was able to be as great as it is because of the literary source material that it comes from. The game's setting is expansive and filled with different monsters for the player to have to figure out a strategy against and then hunt down. There are small villages to pass through as well as enormous cities surrounded by castle wa

Due to the size of the original source battlefield, you’re not likely to fully escape the range of the spray by simply running away. Instead, you want to stay close to the Putrid Avatar when it initiates this attack. When it slams into the ground, roll diagonally around to the side . This should get you out of the Scarlet Rot—if it doesn’t, simply roll again in quick succession to fully escape the Scarlet Rot haz

The main notable unused animation is his backward kick, which still does work in the game, but it has barely any effect on enemies. This kick would launch enemies away from you, making horseback combat feel entirely useful. The reasons behind why it was cut are unsure, but it likely had to do with lining up the attacks correc

Iron Fist Alexander is a bit less serious than many NPCs in the game, a much appreciated reprieve in a world rife with suffering and despair. He's a lovable but somewhat bumbling sort who manages to get himself stuck numerous times. Not to mention -- he is part of a race of walking, talking Living J

The damage-free Sorcery spells listed above prove FromSoftware can add non-combat Glintstone Sorcery spells to Elden Ring 's DLC without infringing on the healing and protection niche of Incantations. New Selian Night Sorceries (similar to the spells hidden behind Elden Ring 's Mirage Rise Puzzle ) could let players befuddle in both PvE and PvP (a group invisibility spell, a spell like the Shadow Bait Incantation that summons decoys, etc.) Alternately, Elden Ring developers could homage the astrological themes of Glintstone Sorcery by introducing spells that let players gather information (for instance, a spell that causes concealed enemies to light up in silhouet

When Elden Ring was first announced at E3 2019, FromSoftware gave a cryptic reveal of what would soon become one of their most extraordinary creative and newly popular games. With, at the least, nearly four years of development, there was an incredible amount of love and time put into the making of what has become many Souls fans' favorite g

The humble NPC Thops, a self-described "Bluntstone" sorcerer players can encounter near Liurnia of the Lakes, may actually be the Glintstone Sorcerer closest in spirit to the non-militant astrologers or yore. He can sell players the Starlight spell, which conjures up a long-lasting ball of blue light, and at the end of his questline creates the Thop's Barrier spell, a temporary shield capable of deflecting attacks from Elden Ring 's final b

In the Lands Between setting of Elden Ring , the discipline of Glintstone Sorcery, iconic to the scholars of Raya Lucaria and the enchanted knights of Caria, is flavorful and fascinating. Glintstone, the mineral affixed to most sorcerer staves, is an extraterrestrial substance that fell from the heavens and grows in a life-like fashion in locations like Liurnia of the Lakes and Selia, Town of Sorcery. Most Glintstone Sorcery spells in Elden Ring thematically conjure up outer space phenomena such as shooting stars, distortions of light, storms of ice, crystal ores, and even surges of gravity, while sorcery-wielding creatures like the Crystalians, the Onyx/Alabaster Lords, and Fallingstar Beasts have an alien look. The lore of Elden Ring even talks about how the earliest Glintstone Sorcerers were star-gazing astrologers simply seeking to understand the mysteries of the cosmos, making it all the more tragic that most of the Glintstone Sorcery spells available to players of Elden Ring are focused exclusively around killing enemies. Future DLC, foreshadowed by the most recent 1.07 Patch, could change this state of affa

Ranni usurps the current higher powers of the land and plans to leave the Lands Between to those who inhabit it. Being guided by the moon and the stars, people have true free will for the first time in their lives. No clarity is given as to what the people will do with their newfound free will, but whatever it is, at least they are making those decisions for themselves. The world is finally broken out of the stalemate and the cycle of pain, and people's destinies are fully their

For you sorcerers out there, the Erdtree Avatar and Putrid Avatar field bosses have a slight resistance to magic but nothing too prohibitive. They do have a decent resistance to Holy damage , however, so if you’ve been specializing in Holy-based incantations, you might be better served to have a couple of backup Incantations that inflict a different damage t

Assassin's Creed might not be the best game in the series as most of the game involves the player getting to a target and then killing that target easily. There isn't really much else to it, and it left many of those who ended up buying it feeling extremely disappointed when it first came out. The gameplay was somewhat enjoyable with the parkour mechanic, and the idea was there which created a base for its sequ
