If you like writing you might as well give it a shot but it depends on what your goals are

2020-02-25 21:21:21 UTC  

I published my book

2020-02-25 21:21:22 UTC  

Like if you want to do it for expression, as a career, to be recognized, etc

2020-02-25 21:21:24 UTC  

on Amazon

2020-02-25 21:21:45 UTC  

Largely to say that I had written and published a book

2020-02-25 21:21:50 UTC  

I just have this worldbuilding idea I want to see realized

2020-02-25 21:21:53 UTC  

I have very little confidence in Elden Ring.

2020-02-25 21:22:06 UTC  

@Argent7771 You think you’ll publish more?

2020-02-25 21:22:06 UTC  

I am done with from soft

2020-02-25 21:22:17 UTC  

unless they have a difficulty setting

2020-02-25 21:22:27 UTC  

I don't have the time to put into their games anymore

2020-02-25 21:22:31 UTC  

No, ew

2020-02-25 21:23:01 UTC  

Difficult settings should never appear in From games.

2020-02-25 21:23:16 UTC  

You have already soft difficulty setting in DS

2020-02-25 21:23:31 UTC  

Ringed City killed my desire to play more

2020-02-25 21:23:36 UTC  

I gave up on it

2020-02-25 21:24:00 UTC  

My main was on NG+

2020-02-25 21:24:04 UTC  

They seem kind of too easy

2020-02-25 21:24:14 UTC  

and I didn't feel like going back and redoing the whole game

2020-02-25 21:24:25 UTC  

Same, did the ringed city without problems.

2020-02-25 21:24:33 UTC  

Basically an infinite plane stretching in each direction, infinite depth etc. and the use of portals
Which has many implications like empires etc. functionally being FTL but without spaceships and whatnot, having huge dedicated hive cities just for administration etc.

2020-02-25 21:24:51 UTC  

After I beat the demon princes

2020-02-25 21:24:58 UTC  

Also stuff like nomadism in that setting would be amazing

2020-02-25 21:25:02 UTC  

someone showed me the fucking Santaclaus final boss

2020-02-25 21:25:07 UTC  

and the shitty ending

2020-02-25 21:25:11 UTC  

and I was like fuck this

2020-02-25 21:25:40 UTC  

Sounds kind of like that old sci fi d&d 70s stuff

2020-02-25 21:26:20 UTC  

Lol I loved that I did that

2020-02-25 21:27:03 UTC  

The ending was underwhelming I'll give you that but Gael is a great boss.

2020-02-25 21:27:07 UTC  

The cool thing about a concept like that is that you can do that pulp style serial where you just go on one-shot adventures to all kinds of places and it just fleshes itself out over time

2020-02-25 21:27:13 UTC  

lol and the DLC didn't introduce anything

2020-02-25 21:27:22 UTC  

@Iron Nation That's the intention

2020-02-25 21:27:53 UTC  

I was thinking of using a bureaucrat turned adventurer

2020-02-25 21:28:26 UTC  

wtf was the blood paint

2020-02-25 21:28:36 UTC  

Uncovering some old portal because it had been forcibly closed for not paying enough taxes

2020-02-25 21:28:39 UTC  

I actually thought the ending fo DS3 was fine

2020-02-25 21:28:52 UTC  

I don't find Souls games that hard really

2020-02-25 21:29:11 UTC  

They aren't. Unless you want to play Mage.

2020-02-25 21:29:24 UTC  

If you are having trouble with the difficulty level, there is a soft difficulty setting in that you can farm souls pretty quickly and just level up

2020-02-25 21:29:32 UTC  

The game is really as hard as you want it to be
