In a match against Malenia, an Elden Ring player was successfully defeated, but Waterfowl Dance did not appear at the match this time. Blade of Miquella made a name for herself in Elden Ring with one specific attack of her own, making it the most challenging boss.

Some FromSoftware veterans will have the sense of achievement by their victories in some difficult games. A player discover a certain Spirit Ash that can successfully stun and kill Malenia and win. Now Malenia can be called the most tough boss in the history of FromSoftware since its release.

On the one hand, players enjoy the feeling of challenging various competitions and achieving the ultimate victory. On the other hand, as the difficulty of the game continues to increase, players also need to keep pace with the times, learn more useful knowledge and prepare more Elden Ring Runes or items before starting new challenges to ensure their smooth passing. However, on the road to success, occasional failure is also very normal.

1.When Reddit user superepic13579 played the game earlier, he was in an excellent position to obliterate "Nihil" Malenia's health with Bloodboon Ritual skill of Mohgwyn's Sacred Spear. Afterwards, Goddess of Rot gradually entered its second phase and pay attention to the player's Mimic Tear. The Tarnished, with full health, seems to have seen his victory. It was such a harrowing experience that led the player to post this video to Reddit.

2.After switching to Rivers of Blood Katana, the player calmly and quickly uses Corpse Piler to stagger Malenia. Later, FromSoftware thought this skill was too powerful, so it was changed to cause damage and Hemorrhage build-up. As soon as a couple escaped from a defeat, the rotting female swordsman immediately jumped up and kicked the player, so that the couple couldn't dodge this attack in time. Since they couldn't restore their health, they devised another method, which was to use another Corpse Piler to kill Malenia. But, at this very moment, they knew they were doomed.

3.Immediately, Malenia stretches out one of her hands, rushes at the Tarnished while still in the attack animation, throws them into the air, and impales her soul on her weapon. The Shardbearer's most damaging single attack is this one. It kills the player instantly, and it's a one-line attack that many players are all too familiar with.

Later, Reddit user said in the video that they had never thrown the controller before this loss, but after this loss, they almost did. Fortunately, they tried again later, and it worked. So, in the Elden Ring community, it's better to enjoy playing the game than to be frustrated with the outcome of the game.

The Jack the Ripper DLC for Assassin's Creed Syndicate could've been gruesome and fascinating, but the Victorian England expansion sadly wasted its potential. The 2015 entry in the open-world historical series casts players as Jacob and Evie Frye, a pair of twin Assassins, in 1800s London. While a DLC following the Jack the Ripper murders sounds like a perfect fit for the franchise, the standalone story campaign ruins the intrigue of the bloody figure.

Releasing shortly after the base game, Assassin's Creed Syndicate's Jack the Ripper DLC lets players control both Evie Frye and the titular murderer. The story sees Evie investigate the notorious Jack the Ripper murders, with her twin brother Jacob potentially being one of the killer's victims. Evie is used to carry out typical Assassin's Creed open-world gameplay, but at certain points the DLC also puts players in control of the Ripper himself. The historical serial killer controls similarly to Evie or Jacob, but he uses more brutal tactics and performs gruesome executions on his hapless victims. While playing as Jack the Ripper is interesting, the DLC sadly shines too much light on the elusive figure.

Playing As The Ripper In AC Syndicate Is Strange

Tracking down Jack the Ripper as Assassin's Creed Syndicate main character Evie is a perfect setup for an expansion, but playing as the Ripper himself removes much of his mystery and intrigue. The London serial killer remains one of the most infamous unsolved mysteries in history, with the real historical figure leaving five or more innocent victims in his wake. The Jack the Ripper DLC reduces these crimes to mere mission objectives, with players carrying out multiple murders themselves. While having Evie follow in the wake of the Ripper's rampage could've maintained an air of mystery around him, putting players in control of the infamous figure turns him into just another Assassin's Creed playable character.

AC Syndicate's DLC Story Ruins The Ripper's Intrigue

While some fans may feel that Jack the Ripper is the best Assassin's Creed Syndicate character to control, the expansion's story also ruins the mystery surrounding the killer. The actual Ripper's motives are unknown, but the Jack the Ripper DLC haphazardly ties the grisly criminal into the tangled Assassin's Creed lore. The expansion explains that Jack is a former apprentice of Jacob Frye who was also a patient at London's Lambeth Asylum. The Ripper's victims are explained to actually be Assassins, with Jack holding a grudge against Jacob for failing to save his mother. This explanation dramatically simplifies and perverts the story of the real Ripper just to fit the convoluted Assassin's Creed narrative.

The story of Jack the Ripper has a clear link to Assassin's Creed Syndicate, but the titular DLC sadly failed to do the killer's historical tale justice. Playing as the Ripper, rather than simply hunting him down and investigating his crimes, removes the mystery surrounding the infamous figure. The expansion's story is even more ineffective, with the serial killer's motives and story being forcibly tied into the larger Assassin's Creed narrative. An Assassin's Creed Syndicate DLC about Jack the Ripper is a no-brainer, but the expansion should've taken more care to maintain the gravitas and intrigue of the killer's story.

Recent Genshin Impact leaks give more information about two new skins for Ayaka and Lisa which are expected to arrive in the upcoming months.

New Genshin Impact leaks reveal the potential appearance of the upcoming costumes for two popular characters, Ayaka and Lisa. Even though the game's characters are the focal point of the game as they are its main source of revenue, HoYoverse does not introduce skins that often.

The last two costumes arrive back in Genshin Impact update 2.8 which introduced the first five-star skin for Diluc named Red Dead of Night. The Electro user Fischl also received a new outfit in the same update which was obtainable for free during the Summertime Odyssey event.

A new post on the Genshin Impact Leaks subreddit reveals the design of the two new skins for Ayaka and Lisa. Both concepts were apparently created based on previous leaks revealed by Team China, a group of credible Genshin Impact leakers. While these leaks should be taken with a grain of salt, almost every previous outfit that was introduced to Genshin Impact went through the same leaking process, meaning that the new skins will probably look very similar to the concepts. There is no information about their rarity, but players expect Ayaka's skin to have a five-star rating which would equip the character with a new set of effects.

While some players in the comment section claim that they like the new skin, especially if it has new SFX effects, others claim that they would not spend over $20 on a costume that has a similar color theme to Ayaka's current outfit.

The Cryo user is one of the most popular characters in the game which is probably one of the reasons why she was chosen to receive a new skin. She even holds the record for most sales within a single Genshin Impact banner cycle, however, it should be noted that her numbers were inflated due to a three-week delay during 2.6.
