Do you prefer to okay melee only? Do you 100% every area you come across? Do you stick to a particular weapon type throughout your playthrough?

I always look for the biggest, most ridiculous greatsword imaginable and exclusively use it for the rest of the game, even if it sucks. Not sure why, I’ve just always done it. I don’t like hammers or axes though. Only swords, and only massive two handed ones. If the biggest sword is a magical sword, looks like I’m levelling intelligence/faith/whatever it needs. Needless to say, my Elden Ring playthroughs always start by making a beeline to Caelid to grab GUGS. Then when I enter the DLC I get the Ancient Meteoric Ore Greatsword as soon as I can. DS3? GUGS then FUGS. DS1? Zwei right out of the gate. Not sure why, it’s just always how I play these games.
