PCG Gamer of the Yr (opens in new tab) Let Me Solo Her is again at it once more, child. As reported by Kotaku (opens in new tab), LMSH, well-known for his nude, twin katana-wielding, pot-helmed avatar and repeated shepherding of different gamers previous secret megaboss Malenia, has began streaming (opens in new tab) a run of Elden Ring the place each enemy is, in truth, Malenia.
I am undecided what mod LMSH is utilizing to make the swap—perhaps some customized parameters on the Merchandise and Enemy Randomizer (opens in new tab) by thefifthmatt—however he is additionally rocking FiftyTifty’s simply-titled Aggression Mod (opens in new tab), which makes enemies instantly residence in on you from any vary as soon as spawned. A whole countryside of forbidden sword method goddesses of decay instantly lock on and pursue LMSH on coming into an space, making for this virtually Threat of Rain-like ratcheting up of the peril as he scurries from Grace to Grace.
LMSH’s targets for the run are to gather his signature pot helm from Alexander’s quest, by no means degree up Vigor, and beat the sport. Presently he is obtained the beginning samurai helm to finish his ensemble, making for a kind of depowered, Samus-at-the-beginning-of-Metroid (opens in new tab) vibe earlier than he collects his signature hat. In his preliminary two-hour stream, LMSH murdered lovable samurai dope Yurah for his Sephiroth sword earlier than taking up Malenia the Fell Omen and Malenia the Grafted.
He began working into hassle with Malenia, Queen of the Full Moon although. Not solely does she have a cramped, cluttered boss room, however each occasion of Malenia within the mod carries each of her well being bars. With a two-phase boss like Rennala, that is really two separate Malenia spawns making for a four-phase boss.
Fortunately, the mod provides the small mercy of not turning all of Rennala’s little child scholar minions into Malenias as nicely—there’s simply the one. That setup would most likely be an excessive amount of of a CPU melter anyway. As LMSH notes, the mod already “makes your sport kinda laggy because it wasn’t meant to assist that many Malenias.”
LMSH indicated that the run will proceed at this time, and you may catch it dwell or in VOD kind over on his YouTube channel (opens in new tab). As one Elden Ring Malenia assassin troopers on, one other has just lately retired (opens in new tab). Participant JPNB (opens in new tab) might lastly finish his “Preventing Malenia with a unique construct each week till Elden Ring DLC Information” collection since we lastly obtained that Elden Ring DLC information. I sit up for all these avid gamers ultimately having to struggle Blue Malenia (opens in new tab) in Shadow of the Erdtree.
