10 Great RPGs To Play On Steam Deck

Boss fights are a staple in every Soulsborne game. Some of these bosses may be considered optional, so defeating them rewards players with cool items or runes/souls. However, there are other bosses that players must defeat if they want to progress through the game. But in every Soulsborne game, there are boss fights that many players can agree on being annoying, even if they aren't as difficult as some of the franchise's more punishing fights. And out of the many bosses that Elden Ring has , several of them fall into this categ

He took Malenia under his tutelage, where she eventually become a swordmaster unparalleled. After this, she put her swordsmanship to practice to protect Miquella and the new order he sought to usher

steam2_share.pngElden Ring has many difficult areas , with perhaps the most notorious being the aforementioned Caelid. This area is a desolate, punishing wasteland that has gone full-on scorched earth and is filled with high-level bea

Rennala, Queen of the Full Moon is one of Elden Ring’s main bosses that players can encounter early in the game. She can be skipped since only two Great Runes are needed to reach the Altus Plateau. However, players who want or need to respec stats in Elden Ring may prioritize defeating Rennala. Assuming a player reaches Rennala at the appropriate level, she is not overly difficult to fight; she is weak to bleed and physical damage, which players can use to their advant

The Royal Revenant is an optional boss found in the Kingsrealm Ruins in the northwest section of Elden Ring ’s Liurnia of the Lakes . Players can reach the ruins early in the game and find the boss room beneath an illusionary floor in the ruins. While revenants and royal revenants are challenges that can be found in other locations of the game, fighting this Royal Revenant is annoying because of how small the boss room is. Getting pinned against the wall while being poisoned and hit by the boss is a huge possibility. And if players are not careful, they can be killed as soon as they enter the r

The Large Crabs Monocle and Top Hat mod give them the importance they deserve. With this mod, every large crab enemy is given a cartoonishly large monocle and hat. This amusing mod, in particular, only puts the look on certain crabs, making it a surprise when the fancy crustacean does app

Elden Ring , several months out from its release, is still one of 2022's biggest games. The world of the Tarnished brought in so many new and veteran gamers alike. Part of this was due to the world, and the influence of George R.R. Martin was clear in the setting's bleak nat

Elden Ring has been released to resounding critical acclaim, and on top of the enriching open-world design and gameplay, FromSoftware's vintage brand of subtle dark-fantasy storytelling surrounding its characters has been loved by longtime f

Minecraft is also a game about exploring a desolate wasteland. However, the Minecraft Diamond Sword mod really shows how different the art styles are and the blocky blue weapon looks so out of place that one can't help but laugh. It's still powerful to wield though, making it one of the funniest mods in the g

Commander Niall is a difficult boss, but what makes him annoying is the two ghostly Banished Knights that he summons at the beginning of the fight. Winning the fight depends on how well a player can manage the two knights along with Niall himself. The knight with the dual swords is aggressive and should be taken care of first. But if a player defeats both knights, Niall will become aggressive. It is an annoying fight that may make players decide the Consecrated Snowfield is not worth

The known Empyreans are QueenMarika, Malenia the Severed, Miquella, Lunar Princess Ranni, and Ironeye Remembrances the Gloam-Eyed Queen -- though, the latter's lineage is unknown. And given her place in Elden Ring 's boss power rankings , it's unsurprising to know that Malenia is the strongest of them all. Even Ranni believed that only she, Malenia, and Miquella were worthy of the Empyrean ti

Astel has a lot of AoE attacks, along with several powerful grabs. He teleports around the arena and will use his mandibles to bite the player. Plus, when players first enter the arena, Astel does a beam attack that has a chance to one-shot the player. Getting one shot over and over before even getting close enough to him is exhausting. Astel is an annoying fight that can probably be skipped unless players are completing Ranni’s quest. Later in the game, another version of Astel called Astel, Stars of Darkness can be encountered in the Yelough Anix Tun

Malenia's elite combat prowess is unquestionable, but all of that skill had to come from intense and dedicated training. To become her brother Miquella's sworn Blade, Malenia, at some point, encountered a blind swordsman who had sealed away a mysterious Outer
