That looks super fun and that a lot of effort went in to capturing the fun and energy of game day.

Effort and energy. You love to see it.

Ordinarily I’d say the lack of gameplay is a red flag but I’m pretty confident it’ll at worst play like Madden, and the gameplay for Madden isn’t all that bad anymore

The trailer looks incredible, but I'll have to see how deep the game actually is in terms of developing your program. Might have to wait to see reviews before I commit.

The fact that they’re bringing TeamBuilder back is a pleasant surprise

What I did like on the official page is they led with Dynasty then Road to Glory, and 3rd was Ultimate Team (my least favorite game more ever).

I really hope they don't **** up Dynasty, but I have hope. And like Machu said, I enjoyed playing Madden this year on Game Pass. Take that gameplay and apply it to the college atmosphere/dynasty and I think there is a real chance. Honestly, it should be so easy for them. Take 2014 and make sure everything that had is in it and add any QOL things.

Doesn't matter how many times you do it, but beating a tough ass FromSoft boss,

I needed a cigarette after Mohg, Lord of Blood.

Winning a boss fight has always been a glorious feeling. My mind went to the first time I sprinted under a jumping Bowser in the original SMB on Nintendo.

High level Elden Ring videos fascinate me. Like I know all of the moving parts, but putting them together in ways like these is mind bogglingly wild. See the last two minutes for examples.



I only have Placidusax, Fortissax, and Hoarah Loux/Elden Beast left on this play through. I'm debating whether I want to finish the game and jump into NG+ for the DLC, or wait and use the DLC on this first play through. Need to do some research.

Beat Demon of Hatred, felt awesome, proceeded to get dumped on repeatedly by Isshin the Sword Saint. I’m going to beat this mother ****.

Sekiro's the mountain I need to reattempt. I've gotten good (or at least better) at parry based games over the last year.

I've been cleaning up Elden Ring since finishing all 30 or so main bosses. Took care of every dragon/wyrm. Collected all the cookbooks. Haven't gotten all the prayerbooks yet. No where near all the ashes. Only a couple divine towers. Decided to do the DLC on NG+.

I'll be heading into NG+ with this arsenal:

Magma Blade +10 (two of these)
Marais Executioner's Sword +10
Death's Poker +10
Blasphemous Blade +10
Rivers of Blood +10
Gargoyle's Twinblade +25
Giant Crusher +25
Sacred Relic Sword +9 (ruin farming porpoises)

If you've beaten Mohg (who is stupidly tough, **** Mohg lol) I'm confident you can beat Sekiro; at what point in the game (I guess specific boss) did you stop playing Sekiro?

I used RoB +10 and Blasemphous Blade +10 in my 2nd and 3rd playthroughs, they're so damn OP lol. I am very curious to see how they translate to the DLC, and if FromSoft pulls any BS to force people to re-spec and re-build haha
