Another one I haven’t mentioned yet is how different certain bosses feel in this game where they almost are designed to specifically be taken down with a certain build or using summons
No. I beat every boss with a strength build. I haven’t run dex yet but dex/bleed seems op so I don’t think there would be a problem there. Int builds were able to melt every boss with comet azur early after release from what I saw so I doubt that’s a problem either. These games and their bosses are as simple or as complex as you want to make them. If you wanted to run the game with a simple dagger you could do it. Every build is viable.

Many also feel like they were straight out of bloodborne put into Dark Souls 4
I mean the game is pretty much an amalgamation of all the best parts of the past 13 years of their catalogue. So it wasn’t really a surprise to me that there was some BB/Lovecraft inspiration thrown in

I didn’t say you couldn’t beat the game with a certain build. I always play the first run on a dex/skill build think blades of mercy/chicage/rakuyo from Bloodborne type weapons and I did the same here for every boss in the game except Malenia “blade of Miquella” who is straight up annoying as hell and poorly optimized (but looks very good and her and miquella have the coolest lore stories) without a certain weapon art and summons.
They have extremely interesting lore and stories imo. They had something almost truly great here in Elden Ring but couldn’t resist just making it another way of telling Dark Souls 1 story with new characters.

Makes sense, now go with an intelligence build and try it. Strength builds are simply the base line because all entities take physical damage. My first build was a mage and it was a hell of a time to get through some bosses because you could not get enough damage on them. I have run an intelligence, dex/bleed, and now pure strength. My 150 level str build can blow through bosses. My 150 level intelligence build, I had to find different magic combos to get past various bosses. I have not played any other RPG game except Elden Ring since the early 2000's, I can say it is a very good game. As good as Ultima Online when it first came out and it took the gaming world by storm. The fight against Lord British castel is still a thing of legend for us GenX gamers. Elden Ring is on that level. Is it a 10/10, probably not, but its close based on the depth and expansiveness of the game. I have run through it 3x and I still have not done all the different quests and such.
