I wanted to see something.

Tired?  Eyes have been sandpapered from exhaustion.  The body hurts.  The heart is a bit sore.  Kidneys and other internals seem okay.  Feet are swollen by a quarter to half over their normal size, and ankles and lower legs.  Issues, I am saying.  The mind keeps trying to shut down, eyes close, as I nod into oblivion.  At least I am not driving this way.  No choice, at times in the past.

Still, I wanted to see if I could... take bosses, in the game.  I have been stuck at bosses, on both games.  Just in fear, mostly.  I doubted I could take them, so I scouted resting spots, easy loot, and such.  So... I wanted to test my abilities, when completely taxed, done, nodding off, at my worst.

And?  On the first 'toon, I took the boss in my way easily.  The second 'toon as well.  And a few mini-bosses which caused me more trouble than the regular bosses?  Yes, but shut up.  :p  I am amazed.  This is Elden Ring.  Not quite as difficult as other Souls games?  Or not always.  Some things are easier, some thing similar, somethings harder.  Bosses are... similar.  There are harder, and easier, ones.  And... you need to be level appropriate, well geared, somewhat patient, and such.  The thing is, they give us no clue what levels we should practically even try a certain boss, dungeon, zone.

And it's open world, to a greater extent.  So you can get way over your head, quickly.  Losing a certain type of look if you can't retrieve that before dying again.

So... yes, for an old, most dead, overly tired, guy, while crashing, I... did pretty good.  But now it really is bedtime.  Oh, and I am fighting bosses, on my newer 'toon, with melee combat.  A totally new concept.  I, generally, hate melee.  I prefer being a sniper (if with magic and bows).  So, getting in there, getting down and dirty, has been a new experience.  Plus, melee is so... singular.  When the mage can act more like artillery, taking out swathes of unclean vermin at a spell.  Ka-Bosch!

Anyway, it's time for bed.  I need sleep so badly I'm hurting.  Good night... day... afternoon?  Crazy.  I wanted more food, but just can't do it, even fussing with it and having it cold.  Chicken.  I hate going to bed hungry, if I doubt I'll be awake long enough for it to trouble me.  Good night indeed.
