Elden ring kenneth haight update

To prevent white screens on load 100% of the time, add this to the launch options.
PROTON_NO_D3D11=1 %command%
Has something to do with the renderer switching on launch, getting flagged by EAC as some sort of 'cheat' attempt, then the game hardlocking randomly.
This prevents the white screen 100% of the time but doesn't always prevent the GPU from crashing randomly on the black screen right before the logo appears.

Copying and pasting what I've posted before seems lazy but honestly, coming up with a different and more interesting way to present the same information about myself is just ridiculously hard. It's probably why I never hear back from interviewers.
Things I like, the lazy version: -White Album 2, the visual novel -House of Fata Morgana -Infinite Space, an old Nintendo DS game I've probably replayed over 10 times -SRPGs in general -Reading
-Writing -Fanfiction -Oregairu -Handball, although I haven't actively played in years -Fallen Hero Rebirth/Retribution -Keeper of the Sun and Moon/Day and Night/Life and Death -Light novels -Manga, although I haven't touched anime in over a year -Space -Singing badly
Random facts: -I've broken both hands back to back -I've dislocated my knee trying to jump over a bike to save a shot while playing handball -Learned the hard way that physical pain is easier to ignore and get over than emotional pain -Once had a resting heart rate so low that it would set off the hospital monitors by default. Trying to get back to that point right now. -I'm in the process of learning how to person again. -I'm apparently the type of person to make all or nothing decisions. If I'm being wishy washy about something that means I'm still undecided. -I'm also apparently the kind of person who gets burned once and well, let's just say that time does not heal all wounds. -I'm playing Baldr's Gate 3 now, but wouldn't mind getting back into FFXIV or modded Elden Ring Random things I think about, possibly controversial:
-Free will vs fate and how it's really all about control at the end of the day. The idea that the control of our lives is all in our hands vs the idea that the control of our lives is entirely out of our hands. Then I go down tangents like religion and willingly ceding control to some mysterious unseen figure as a form of ironically enough, asserting control. There's a difference between choosing to have no control vs being forced to have no control and people hate the latter. -The only meaning in life is whatever we make of it. Everything is meaningless until we ascribe whatever meaning there is to it. -Subjective truth. Thanks, The Things They Carried and high school creative writing.
Seeking a connection to person again

I’m looking just to have some fun and a casual time with someone to play elden ring bingo with on bingosync .com

So originally I didn't want to play a paladin because of the whole Holy Warrior with a sword and shield thing didn't really appeal to me. Then I thought why use a shield then! lol. Anyways I ended up absolutely loving it so thought it share the build I used, pics with a few sentences to explain what was going on in my play through for fun.

Everything started simply. I was wondering around the world looking for a cause to serve when I suddenly had visions of gold that lead me to The Lands Between. The first time I saw the Erdtree I knew It must be protected and order must be put into place by restoring the Elden Ring. With that said I made my vow to protect the Erdree and restore order at all costs and took the name "Erdtree paladin".
​
Early/Mid game Build
Build wise I choose spells I thought reflected the Ertree and the Golden Order best IMO. Choose the armor to help boost the Aspect spells slightly and for looks.
Stats:
Vigor: 40
Mind: 20
Endurance: 20
Strength: 18
Dexterity: 13
Intelligence: 9
Faith: 70
arcane: 7
Class: Vagabond
Spells:

1. Lightning Spear
2. Lightning Strike
3. Aspect of the Crucible: Horns
4. Aspect of the Crucible: Tail
5. Aspect of the Crucible: Breath
6. Golden Vow
7. Blessing of the Erdtree
8. Protection of the Erdtree
9. Great Heal

Weapons:
Finger Seal Early Game.
Erdtree Seal Mid/Late Game.
Lordsworn's Greatsword: Sacred Blade. Early Game.
Inseparable Sword: Sacred Blade. Mid game.
Armor:
Head: No head Armor.
Chest: Crucible Tree Armor.
Gauntlets: Crucible Gauntlets.
Leg Armor: Nox Greaves.
Talismans:

1. Flock's Canvas Talisman.
2. Warrior Jar Shard ( Yes i did feel like a horrible person ).
3. Millicent's Prosthesis ( See above ).
4. Dragoncrest Shield Talisman/Spelldrake Talisman/Flamedrake Talisman/Boltdraek Talisman.

There was something about the combo of a Greatsword, these spells, and Sacred blade Ashe of War that just kicked so much butt. Even though some bosses may have been resistant to Holy damage I honestly never noticed it much and the play style was very fun and rewarding.

\"The one who walks alongside flame, shall one day meet the road to Destined Death\" Melina
Eventually with the help of Melina I came to understand the only way to restore the Elden Ring was if I betrayed my vow and broke my Oath to protect the Erdtree by committing the Cardinal Sin of burning it.
Watching it burn I tore out my own eye so I never forget my sin and so the last thing it saw was the Erdtree burning.
I replaced "Lighting Spear" and "Lightning Strike" with "Giantsflame Take Three" and "Burn O Flame!" to reflect my broken vow and my new place as a Oathbreaker Paladin.

And when I came across Maliketh and Destined Death I understood I was never doing the will of the Erdtee or even the Greater will. It was the same person that has been guiding me from the begining. Melina, The Gloam-Eyed Queen! With my broken vow, cardinal Sin, and newfound knowledge i continued my journey as..
The Death Knight
​
Red eyes, well eye....
At this point I completely changed my build to reflect my new place as a Death Knight and bringer of a return to the normal cycle of life and Death.
Stats:
Vigor: 40
Mind: 20
Endurance: 30
Strength: 50
Dexterity: 13
Intelligence: 9
Faith: 50
arcane: 7
Spells:

1. Black Blade.
2. Black Flame.
3. Scouring Black Flame.
4. Black Flame Ritual.
5. Golden Vow.
6. Blessing of the Erdtree.
7. Protection of the Erdtree.
8. Flame, Grant me Strength.
9. Flame, Cleanse Me.

Weapons:
Maliketh's Black Blade: Destined Death.
Clawmark Seal.
Armor:
Maliketh's Armor.
Maliketh's Gauntlets.
Maliketh's Greaves.
Talismans:

1. Flock's Canvas Talisman.
2. Warrior Jar Shard ( Q.Q ).
3. Millicent's Prosthesis.
4. Dragoncrest Greatshield Talisman/Spelldrake Talisman 2/Flamedrake Talisman 2/Boltdrake Talisman 2/Pearldrake Talisman 2.

With all things considered. The Gloam-Eyed Queen, Destined Death, The burning of the Erdtree I felt the Black Flame spells would work perfectly along with destined death and the usual buffs and wasn't disappointed how strong and fun the build was to play.
​
And thus the natural flow of life and death was returned.
In short, I started as a Paladin, became an Oathbreaker Paladin, and then after the Cardinal Sin of Burning the Erdtree, Breaking my Vow, being lead by the queen of Destined Death and ultimately Controlling it myself I became a Death Knight.
This was an extremely fun play through and probably the one I enjoyed the most so far.
Anyone else have a particular play through they loved?
Also forgive any grammatical or spelling errors, I'm not perfect.

Let Me Solo Her has become Let Me Solo Them in a quite frankly terrifying challenge run of Elden Ring.
The streamer became legendary in the game's community for assisting players struggling with its most difficult optional boss: Malenia.
Not content with defeating the boss a thousand times and receiving an honorary sword for the effort, Let Me Solo Her is now playing a modded run where every enemy is Malenia. Read more Link to article

Would your weapon recommendations change if it is a WL+0 run vs a WL+25 run?
What weapons did you use/recommend for WL+0?
I did DS3 at SL1/WL+0 all bosses (DLC included) and want to do the same for Elden Ring.
I did check the mega thread but most comments did not include WL+0.

Does anyone have a +25 Lance they want to drop me? I promise I'm not going the way of monkey like Jeenine does. I just want to see if it's fun or not. I'll drop you what you want if you can drop me the said weapon. Thanks.

I've been trying to use the deloading glitch in Mohgwyn Dynasty to get extra runes but every time I do it I'll fall for like forty seconds get no runes and die. Can someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong.

Multiplayer messages in Elden ring are hilarious

hey, looking for anyone who wants to join a small friend group. there are only a few of us and we mainly play elden ring and overwatch atm. we’re pretty chill and happy to play with anyone

Maybe we're all really good at the game and there's just one guy out there who's died 8.9 billion times. Link to article

Hey all. Trying to narrow down best use for me.
I currently run Elden Ring and titles similar to that. I want a laptop that does the following: Has no stuttering or noticeable fps drop when gaming I also will use it to plug via hdmi to my 4k TV for modded gaming on my big screen. This part is big for me. I have a ps5 but like portability and being able to plug into any TV in the house. I do travel a fair amount and don't want to go too big or too heavy, especially when I'm stuck on a plane. Battery life should be usable for up to a couple hours if possible
I initially bought an x16 flow with Nvidia 3060 and 6 gb of vram. It cost around 2k. It's awesome but I think I'm hitting that vram max pretty easily and seeing some stuttering and fps drops.
So now I'm down to these two...
2022 x16 flow but with the Nvidia 3070 ti and 8 gb vram. Amd ryzen 9 6900. 32 gb memory. This is a 2 in 1 which could be helpful on flights for watching shows, etc. Price is 2700.
2022 zephyrus m16 with 3080 ti and 16 gb vram. Intel i9-12900h. 32 gb memory. Not a 2 in 1 but not sure I will ultimately need that. Price is 3000.
I want this to be future proof for at least a few years or more so I am leaning towards the m16 with 16 gb vram. Given the 2560 x 1600 resolution on both of these, I'm not sure if 8 gb vram would cover long term. And even more so if I hdmi port to a 4k tv.
I also hear that the m16 can be hot and noisy but not sure if it's much different than the x16. And once again... guessing battery will be similar on both.
Thoughts ?

Since the games release I've seen tons of praise for its story which I don't really think is warranted. The game has lots of lore sure but I don't think that's a good substitute for a real story and character development.
The core of my problem with Elden Ring's story could probably be summed up with character development. None of the characters in this game go through any growth at all, or give me really any reason to care about their arcs or their motives. I don't know why any of the bosses want to stop me being Elden Lord, I don't know why Melina wants to be Elden Lord, I don't even know why I want to be the Elden Lord. Melina is alongside the tarnished the whole game and yet she goes through no changes in the whole story, nor does Ranni. Was I supposed to see Gideon's betrayal as some shocking thing? I don't know he didn't really do anything.
Other parts of the plot are also poorly explained, I know there's lore snippets everywhere but surely something as significant and everpresent in this game like the Erdtree should have much more information of its purpose and origin before we for some reason burn it down.
I know there are definitely answers to these questions but they're so poorly presented to the audience that I have to go to external sources like youtube or guides to actually know, which isn't really a good method of storytelling in my eyes.
Elden Ring to me feels like if Tolkien only published the Silmarillion without the Hobbit and LOTR existing to make me care about his world and characters, I wouldn't really be willing to dive into all that deep lore. Only instead of having a densely packed book to go through with concise chapters. Instead I have a buch of cobbled together item descriptions and conversations with NPCs who are impossible to trace to even begin to understand this world.
I've heard it said that Miyazaki makes his stories intentionally vague to give the effect of mystery that Fantasy books had on him due to being in a language he couldn't understand very well. I can see where this is coming from but I also think those stories at least had full stories presented even if you could only touch the surface or maybe that style just doesn't work for me.
Elden Ring is a fantastic game that deserves a lot of its praise but the fact it could be nominated for best narrative next to God of War Ragnarok or even a fairly forgettable plot like Horizon Forbidden West is pretty laughable.

I installed SSE and MCO.animations is to simple i dont think they are for MCO but sword animation crash whene i attack untille sheath(both one handed ant two handed) There is any better combat animation? And i installed elden ring animation but its didnt show up on nemesis so its dont work
