Of course, fans currently have no way of knowing if their expectations will be met. There have been many games that have failed to live up to their hype. Yet there are some video games that actually lived up to the hype and turned out to be everything fans on Reddit could have wanted and m

Still beloved today, Assassin's Creed 2 introduced an economy system to the franchise, notoriety, and even updated many of the stealth features in the series to add more variety to potential play styles. New weapons and the addition of a mini-map made the game feel more playable, less repetitive, and much more developed. It lived up to the hype and m

The way through is blocked, however, and you need to find the Caelid entrance in order to fully explore the dungeon. This is worth it for some great weapons: the Cross-Naginata Spear and the Moonveil Katana , one of the best weapons in the g

This sword is incredibly useful against undead warriors like draugr and vampires. However, Dragonborn should be careful when the light explodes as if they themselves are a vampire (or if any of their companions are undead) it will harm them slightly. For players getting swarmed by tons of draugr however, this blade will put them down swif

The boss' head is vulnerable to attack , so when you’re able, strike its head for extra damage. A longer weapon (like the Cross-Naginata) can be helpful here. When the Magma Wyrm charges, spewing lava, this can be easily dodged if you run to the sides, as it can’t turn very quickly. It likes to do this move several times in a row without leaving much room in between charges for you to attack, so it’s best to wait it out until it finis

The release of Elden Ring was heavily anticipated, but the game somehow matched expectations and surpassed them. "I’ll never forget, after years of waiting and excitement, finally getting it downloaded on preorder and it finally going live," says Reddit user Dubbs09 . "I’m not sure I will ever experience anything like it aga

A little to the north of the Siofra River Bank site of grace, you’ll find a wooded path heading northwest toward the second brazier. You’ll need to contend with several Ancestral Follower Spirits here, who can be difficult to fight more than one at a time. If you head up the right side of the rock wall toward the brazier, you should come up behind most, allowing you a chance to open with a back s

Crystal Tears are meant to be mixed in the Flask of Wondrous Physick to create special effects, similar to the way a Talisman works. One of the many perks to Crystal Tears is that they stay in New Ga

The eighth and final brazier is located just west of the seventh, but you’ll need to head north and loop back south in order to reach it, as it’s up on a higher plateau . Be careful in this area; several Ancestral Follower Spirit archers are lurking about, and the area is patrolled by fairly aggressive rats. Once you reach the brazier, you’ll find it guarded by two Ancient Follower Spirits, four smaller rats, and one giant rat. It’s probably best to pull the rats and deal with them first, then backstab the two Ancestral Follower Spir

Once the battle is complete, you’re free to loot. You’ll find two Smithing Stone [4] and one Somber Smithing Stone [4] in the cave walls, and you’ll find the Cross-Naginata Spear on the corpse at the back of the c

The sword is a perfect weapon for melee builds in Elden Ring updates Ring . In Bloodborne, the weapon is first wielded by a boss in the DLC known as Ludwig, the Holy Blade. It also appears in Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice wielded by the Divine Dragon boss but bears a much different appearance due to the game taking place in a fictional Ja

This is likely to be your first encounter with the Magma Wyrm boss. If so, it can be something of a wall for new players. It’s got some extra damage absorption to Slashing Damage, Fire Damage absorption , and strong resistances to Frostbite and Bleed. Strike and Pierce Damage are pretty effective against this boss, same as the miners themselves, so it might be worth upgrading a mace or hammer of some kind if you’re struggl

The first brazier is located very close to the Siofra River Bank site of grace. You’ll find it just to the east , toward the temple stairs. Once you light it, you’ll see the corresponding brazier on the temple stairs light

The fourth brazier can be dangerous to retrieve. It is located east/southeast of the third brazier, up a wooded path, and on the edge of a climb . The path to it is littered with Ancestral Follower Spirits, and more notably, the archer variants. You’ll spot a group of three walking up the path toward the brazier, but the archers are hidden in bushes and behind trees in the surrounding area, and they have pinpoint accuracy. Your best strategy here is to either sprint and panic roll up the hill to light the brazier before you die, or you’ll need to carefully pick your path, eliminating the Ancestral Follower Spirit archers along the way. This stretch is extremely difficult if you find yourself under-leveled. If you are, it might be worth coming back later when you’re more powerful in order to reduce frustrat
