Midra is such a cool fight. Fuck the optional Huge ass dlc dragons which all have way to much hp tho
Idk, Bayle is totally worth going out of your way to sidestep Senessax.
I can’t overstate how awesome Dragon’s Peak was for me. Riding up the side of a mountain, jumping from peak to peak, red lightning crashing everywhere, climbing over entire mountains of dead dragons. And the payoff, the Bayle fight, was easily my favorite dragon in the whole game. Even better than Placidusax. It was like playing a Dio album. 10/10, give whoever worked on that bit a raise.
I’m convinced Elden Ring, until very late in development, required all 6 Great Runes to access the capital. It feels very strange for that much to be optional, both in terms of gameplay and lore, it was probably just thought to be unreasonably long in testing.
I found this years ago when someone edited the site. One of my favorite DSs, although kinda hated that boss.
