Another Elden Ring complaint, because I’m still not over this game:
Weapons and shields have special moves attached to them. A big part of what distinguishes unique weapons is their inventive special moves.
There’s only one special move button, and if you have equipment in both hands, it will always use the left-hand equipment.
There’s only one block button, and it also uses the left-hand equipment.
The most protective shield in the game has a built-in flamethrower for its special move. It’s slow to activate, has poor range, and can’t be replaced.
In my playthrough, I kept picking up new weapons with cool new moves, and I kept going “whatever. I can’t even use this unless I ditch this shield.”
Edit: post canceled. It turns out a shield I never got at the bottom of an annoying jumping puzzle is even more protective and can have its skill removed.
