(also for anyone curious, I like layers in bed, so while I do have sheets, they're covered with various wools/fur/knit quilts that I sleep within/around)
I beat Elden Ring! It took me way longer than other people, ~150 hours (some of which was me getting summoned to help lfx with bosses, but only a few hours tbh)
What a fantastic experience. Very satisfying.
Now I'm like...huh, this has been all of my entertainment content for the past month. I haven't been reading or playing LoL or like...anything else. I kinda want to go back to playing LoL right now but I'm not sure. I see why people start NG+ but I think it's best if I don't and just wait for DLC.
If you want something different that scratches a similar itch, apparently Tunic is excellent unguided exploration with puzzles and tough bosses and etc
That's where I'm going next
I really don't like puzzles, is the problem. I was in Elden Ring for the combat and for the vibes. Exploration is nice but not entirely the point for me, I think.
The other games that are sitting on my computer unplayed are:
Psychonauts 2, Control, and Outer Wilds (I am willing to believe that it's good enough to overcome my distaste for puzzles but I'm a little worried)
I almost want to restart Dark Souls 2 or 3 but I think that's wrong
Oh shit wait I had just bought Warhammer Total War and was 25% into a campaign, maybe that?
(I also still somehow have like 30% of Disco Elysium left from when I started it like 2 years ago and inexplicably can't bring myself to finish it or restart it)
alternately: League of Legends, one million hours a day (...except I had instituted a whole thing about only playing 3-4 days a week, not every day, so I need to stick to that)
Outer Wilds puzzles aren't super puzzley, as far as puzzles go, I think. For the most part, they're not very complicated, just one or two steps, and about realizing what piece of information you've found elsewhere allows you to do the thing.

I wouldn't say Outer Wilds really has puzzles. It's more like an information based Metroidvania
and I wonder about my neighbors even though I don't have them
but they're listening to every word I say
i just finished elden ring and it also took me ~150 hours. i did everything! and that was a problem! actually too much content! cut like 20% of this game!
Fromsoft didn't have the foresight to carve off 40% of their product and sell it in small parcels later as DLC, disgusting.
the actual final zone of the game feels like unfinished content shoved in the game because they ran out of time before release date, completely disconnected from the rest of the game. that's one specific place i can name that they should cut
(and then cut a bunch of the repeated boss fights which are bad, namely
cut literally every single dragon fight, they are all bad. ulcerated tree spirit pretty bad also cut them from every instance where you fight them in a too small arena or on uneven terrain

I’d call using information to figure out how to progress a puzzle, though.
I think this comes down to what Cred considers a puzzle. Will you be solving space sudoku to get the yellow key? No.

Capital is only the fruit of labor, and could never have existed if Labor had not first existed. Labor is superior to capital, and deserves much the higher consideration. - Lincoln

hm yeah the dragon fights got real boring after the first one
I think it might have been nice to make some different dragon movesets or something
whereas ulcerated tree spirits (aka wiggly dragons) were always kinda fun for me, although I can't explain why. I think cause I never quite figured out their moves and would just dodge responsively and whack away at them.

god people jerk off so hard to the A-10
PAPPY

(and then cut a bunch of the repeated boss fights which are bad, namely
like, tanks kill tanks and they have huge guns
the A-10 has a 30mm gun, so how does it...?
and turns out oh it just doesn't, really.

What place do you think they should cut?
