I think, in retrospect, 20 End is enough in Elden Ring, as I could already fast-roll in med-light armor at 19. So now I am finishing off my build by putting all my points into Str, 24 more levels to go to reach 80 Str and be truly op and unstoppable!
Edit: After doing a bit of research I've discovered that 60 Str should be enough, so just one more level to go now!

I decided to finally check the next-gen update to The Witcher 3. I wanted to just play for a few hours to get the feel of the game but it was inevitable... I immediatelly got sucked in again and it will be very hard to stop playing and I have so many games waiting for their turn
@Jimmer-jammer I finally completed my build today and bested Margit, the Fell Omen, this evening. I guess that despite his boasting, he wasn't the one to extinguish my tarnished's flame of ambition 🤣😉 .It's like @JohnnyShoulder said, he didn't pose too much of a threat to my op character, and I am thoroughly appreciative of my hard work farming paying off. Now just have to get my Greatsword up to +18 when I reach the Mountaintops of the Giants later, and Jellyfish Ashes up to +5 later for the endgame bosses, who I am sure are gonna pack a heftier punch.

@JohnnyShoulder You're probably right - I'll have to go with another option. I'll reflect. I have a Lhutel the Headless Spirit Ash in stock - just have to level Mind if I'm gonna use it. Might have to respec further down the line or something.

Defeated Godrick and Radahn this morning - next onto obtaining the Mimic Tear Ashes and doing some more farming to level up Mind when I play again.
@Jimmer-jammer I did think that Stormveil Castle was actually quite reminiscent of the Gates of Boletaria level from Demon's Souls, rather than resembling a level out of Dark Souls.
Edit: Just learned the required stats for Mimic Tear, looks like I won't have to level up after all! No more farming!
Edit II: Got the Mimic Tear Ashes this afternoon, and I have to say that "going underground" was quite the experience!

@Jimmer-jammer Where will my adventure take me next? To the same place it takes me every time, jimmy, TRYING TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD! (of The Lands Between) 🤣
Haha, if you didn't get that reference and are presumably not of a similar generation to myself, here's a bit of background media to put that paraphrased saying into context:
All joking aside, however, I'm planning to storm the Royal Capital (of Leyndell) next, in terms of my plans for the immediate future with the game.
Edit: Got my Mimic Tear up to +2 now, so theoretically he has more health than even my character now! Great stuff!

Defeated the Draconic Tree Sentinel this morning, Entered Leyndell. That boss was quite the toughie.
Edit: Also defeated Godfrey, Golden Shade and Morgott yesterday. Morgott was the first boss where I felt like, "hey, this is it, I'm really playing Dark Souls again!" got a proper 'FromSoft' feeling from that boss.
Edit II: Reached Mountaintops of the Giants, got my Greatsword up to +18.

Definitely hit a roadblock with Fire Giant in Elden Ring. Gonna upgrade my summon some more and hopefully that'll be enough to topple the big bully.
I got him down to about half-health with my +3 Mimic Tear, but I've decided today's a day for listening to jazz and hip hop and reading Chekhov, so I'll take a break and come back to him, hopefully refreshed, tomorrow.

@BlAcK_Sw0rDsMaN For what its worth, definitely work to upgrade your Mimic Tear - I think you should be able to comfortably get to +6 / +7 if you research a guide as to where to get the upgrade materials. By Fire Giant, I think you should have access to most/all the material locations. Likewise - do the same approach for your main weapon to increase damage
Well, I got the platinum trophy for Dragon Age: The Veilguard last night and absolutely loved my time with it. I was then planning on playing Stalker 2 on my Xbox Series X, but I woke up with a desire to play Dragon Quest 3 Remake so I guess I’ll be playing that on my PS5.

Got to the penultimate stage of crafting my build. Got my Mimic Tear up to +7 and my Heavy Greatsword up to +21, now just have to get it up to +25 after hopefully beating Fire Giant and Godskin Duo and the build will be complete!

I booted up Dragon Age Origins for the very first time, thanks to Xbox Series X and Game Pass. So far, I’m very impressed with how rich in lore the game is right out of the gate, and the amount of animations on screen via cutscenes and whatnot. The writing has been excellent so far, too. I can understand why original fans were disappointed in Veilguard (although I enjoyed it immensely).
