started this expecting another open-world slog but the first expedition actually forced me into nonstop fights right away. got stomped by a scaled knight on a narrow ridge that dropped straight into fog; the camera swing on that drop felt off, like the hitbox stayed bigger than the animation.
upgraded the greatsword twice with the junk i scraped off lizards and the thing still felt sluggish compared to the quicker weapons everyone else runs. the death that finally stuck was fair though, just missed the timing on a double swipe and the ledge finished the job.
ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN keeps the pressure on longer than i thought it would.
