In a discussion about FromSoftware games, particularly Dark Souls and Elden Ring, writer Alex Garland shares his insight on overcoming difficult bosses. He identifies Malenia as the hardest opponent in Elden Ring, emphasizing the need for persistence. Instead of relying on video guides, Garland suggests repeatedly attempting challenges until success is achieved, describing it as a process akin to monkeys typing. His experience reflects a broader message about resilience in the face of tough gameplay, inspiring players to continue trying despite initial failures.
"I just throw myself at them again, and again, and again, and again. It's not that you get better, it's more like monkeys and typewriters."
"That wisdom might sound useless for most players, but it's actually an inspiring message for anyone... keep trying and eventually, through practice or just dumb luck, you'll succeed."
