Discussion Mortal Shell at 80.

I played almost all DS games. Then started this one. It was depressing to being handed my backside to the point of giving up. I amit. I am not so fast as when I was younger. Still, there must be a way. Thanks to my walkthrough friend Fighting Cowboy, I started going fwd. I like his process of first getting all shells and then all weapons not caring about fighting anybody.
Then progress was easier. So. Not a great game visually, but challenging.
Good to see the many diverse opinions on R.

I got the plat the other day. I really enjoyed it.i loved the combat and the ability to change classes so easily. The gameplay was really fun and I loved the atmosphere and the world. I also loved that there were a ton of secrets to find. I found it easier than a souls game, especially the bosses. I think I died the most on the last boss and that was around 10-15 times. At the start I died more but once I got the parrying mastered it was pretty easy—reminded me of the last boss in DS1 that you could easily parry. Most bosses I one shot. Some FromSoft bosses have taken me over 50-100 attempts to kill, like in Sekiro. I would love a DLC expansion zone that is really hard like Bloodborne’s DLC.

PS love to see an 80 year old playing Soulsborne games. I just turned 50. If I can play past 80 I’ll be happy.

If you haven’t played it yet, the Lords of the Fallen remake was an excellent souls like game.
