To make and Anderson joke, if Joseph hadn’t made his video the title of this video would’ve been “Strength Purist 3 DAYS of Malenia Mald”. If you liked this video please consider sharing it with a friend, I am so tired of the greater discussion about these games constantly bogged down because of all the BS information that is constantly being spread about them.
If you think this is objective criticism of Elden Ring than you have brain rot from watching too many long form video essayist critics. Objective criticism of art is idiotic. I can only give you my opinion and explain why I feel that way. Someone can hate Waterfowl for being obtuse and someone can simultaneously love it for feeling badass to dodge. I am not here to say ER is objectively better than souls, that is my opinion. What my problem is, is when one party starts bitching that the game doesn't catering specifically to them and also bases that opinion on misinfo. You can not like Margit, or any boss, without having to invent some BS excuse that he has undodgeable frame traps or he input reads your attacks. It keeps people from trying these games. All I can do is point out misinfo and give my two cents. It is up to the individual to decide where they draw the line of how they want to play, how much time they think is worth putting into the game, and finding their own balance of fair and fun in this game... and that's the fucking beauty of it.
I have 2 reasons for doing this challenge run. One is that I miss challenge running a lot and two is that I know some comments will devolve into “whatabout dis attack or this boss” so I not only want to beat the bosses at low level, but I want to style on them to show people how fun and consistent they are if you really learn them.
Thank you to the Souls community for helping me making this long form video essay. I have been working on this video for almost 5 months and I am going to f**king bed now. All in all was about 400 hours of just editing, nvm the 30 page script I rewrote 3 times and the research, fact checking, and testing. I know I explained flawless running, and then used the term “flawless” interchangeably with “hitless,” my bad for the confusion.
I will caveat that mrBorkD and GinoMachino both mention in their descriptions that they have gripes with some of Melania’s design choices and wish she had a bit more polish, but ultimately find her a fun fight. This is very similar to most complaints levied at Lady Maria. Swagapagos Turtle also makes it clear that he fundamentally disagrees with the decision to allow Malenia to animation cancel and would prefer that no boss should be able to do it, even in this niche way. Kudos to him for his testing.
