Seems like a Fromsoft thing to do :D

Have they done that before? I don't remember it off the top of my head.

[–] chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world 1 points 6 months ago (1 children)

No, I don't think they have, but I wouldn't put it past them. I remember being trapped in the sewers in Dark Souls after I got petrified and permanently lost a chunk of my life total. I just restarted the game because there was no way for me to get back out with such low total life.

That's not the game locking you out of stuff, that's you being stuck in a portion of the game. Totally different. ER did that too, with the trap teleport chests. Usually you have to fight your way out. If you're underleveled, it's going to be an ordeal, but it is doable.

In most soulslike games, you can usually sprint through most areas without ever fighting common enemies. I don't recall any teleport in ER that you can't just escape from.

It was pretty rough getting out of the Sellia Crystal Tunnel at like lvl 20. The pest threads catch up pretty fast and I had no hp.

Mind you, I did do it. Then I came back and got my vengeance.
