In any event, the sooner we bury the git gud mentality the better, and if mods such as Ultimate Table, Cheat Table, and Easy Mode can do that, then more (over)power to them! I mean, how is that possible? The steady flow of mods being produced by the game's most creative hands will only broaden that scope for variety – whether that's in line with this Homer Simpson and Shrek-flavoured monstrosity, or this totally game-changing alternate starting point project. And, somehow, speedrunners are blitzing through the otherwise epic action-roleplayer in less than 20 minutes. Players are blasting through Elden Ring with level 1 characters. Our own Alyssa Mercante is getting by with a little help from her friends. One thing I love about where Elden Ring is currently, just over one month from release, is how varied different player's approaches are. And, having taken Hexington's Ultimate Table for a spin myself, I can confirm there's even more joy to be derived from taking down that first Tree Sentinel bastard with a Stars of Ruin magic storm – that'd otherwise require 43-level Intelligence – straight after leaving the Chapel of Anticipation.

There's something so very satisfying about steamrolling an enemy type who once caused so much dismay. The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth Plus's darkest mod is here Join Tear of Grace as he attempts to conquer this Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth. In Elden Ring, Tree Sentinels fill that role as one of the first mini-bosses you can engage in battle, but who later roam the plains of the Lands Between's late-game northern sprawl in packs. Demon Ruins in the original Dark Souls, for example, is brimming with Capra and Taurus demons, sometimes in herds, each of who once posed a substantial threat one-on-one in the game's opening stretch. While not the first developer to do so by any means, FromSoftware tends to reintroduce one-time boss battle enemies as generic, run of the mill foes down the line. I don't believe Elden Ring is more approachable, but it's definitely more sensible and, by virtue of the fact FromSoftware games are notoriously punishing, I can't fault any player for wanting to kick things off super OP.
