Elden Ring Reforged is one of the biggest gameplay overhaul mods for Elden Ring, but can someone like me beat it on its hardest difficulty?

Big thanks to Raz and yakko for playing through this with me:

Also, we played on version 0.10.3 of the mod. This version is a couple months old at this point, and since the mod is a constant WIP, it's worth mentioning that there have been several features and bosses added since then.

    🕹 Download Opera GX for free: operagx.gg/IronPineapple It's been a while since I've made an Elden Ring video, so I'll be watching closely to see if people are still interested, and if so, I have a few ideas for other potential mods and/or challenge runs to cover for Elden Ring and other FromSoft games. Also for everyone interested in the Souls-Like series, I do have a pretty big stockpile of souls-likes that have been played and recorded, so keep an eye out for that. For the immediate future, I'm very very excited for Dragon's Dogma 2, so there's a chance I'll cover that on my channel if there's interest. And of course, I'm super pumped for Shadow of the Erdtree. Anyway, thank you guys very much for watching and I hope you're all doing well

    for the record, yakko and I did carry pine through this playthrough. don't believe his lies.

    Mod Author: "I got rid of all the cheese builds." Pineapple: "H A M M E R B R O S ."
  • @slinderb.4592
    1:02:13 "Hypotheticly, if there were three jackasses, all running the same build." That build up leading to that punchline is fucking PRISTINE.

    Hey, fun fact, the 'waking the other' mechanic isn't cut, it's just broken for the duo fight. See, for that fight, there's an Apostle hidden under the map, and when the duo checks to see if the other is asleep, it checks all the knights nearby AND THE APOSTLE HIDDEN UNDER THE MAP, but NOT the boss fight. This is why it works in randomizer, and you can see this in action in the Apostle at the Windmill Village! Lure it to the dancing women, put em to sleep, and he'll wake them up.

    “…and our speed is 50% slower, the enemies learned our social security number and are committing identity fraud, and every enemy can one shot you, and…”
  • @Jexdane
    Take a shot every time he says "with the mod, its only 10%"
  • fun fact, the Godskin duo waking each other up isn't cut content! It's still in the game and works... under the right circumstances. See, for some reason the enemies outside the arena mess with the boss's "go wake up buddy" system. If you clear out the entire area outside, or encounter them in a randomizer, the system works perfectly.
  • One of my favorite changes that this mod introduced, is that on the elevator at the Divine Tower of Liurnia. They just...Spawn a Godskin on the elevator. Half way up. When you have no-where to run

    Mod creator: i hate cheese builds and i made this mod specifically to destroy all cheese buils. Iron Pineapple: 1 hour video of how he cheesed the mod with his friends
  • @xyrolinx3533
    After the Shadow of the Erdtree trailer dropped, I had to get back on Elden Ring. Then Iron Pineapple comes out and releases a new video. The hype train is real.
  • @artemgleba7630
    This is hands down the best Elden Ring video I’ve watched. Even my favorite vids from my favorite streamer LilAggy don’t come close to this. Everything is just perfect about it, both the gameplay and the narrative. Well done, Pine. The wait was completely worth it.
  • @shiiche
    Some of these changes would actually be really good in the base game. Like the Bloodbourne dodge when you have a light equip load sounds awesome!

    RE: Samarg's Glintstone Key. It doesn't start in his mouth. If you're sneaky enough to not wake him up,it's on the same corpse as before. If you wake him up,though,you gotta kill him for it,or posture break him and yank it from his mouth before booking it.
  • @Nyx_Eos
    Just wanted to leave my own input here but the logical reason Torrent is immune to rot and poison is because he is a spirit. I mean you literally summon him with a whistle so it makes sense that a spirit is immune to these kinds of things. But gameplay wise it's probably because during your first bout through swamps you'd usually get invaded by an NPC or it's in a place torrent can't be summoned so after that it's like a little consolation prize?
  • @Daggurat
    Vampire Avalanche was my favorite bit. Giving the finger back to the mod creator who has consistently been taking away or breaking your fun toys throughout the whole thing.
  • @harizharu97
    This is the 1st time I felt soo engage in a video. I was like constantly cheering for you guys to do it and glad you guys did! Awesome content as always!
  • @SteadyTeddy
    10:30 This whole segment explaining how healing yourself heals others and how it resulted in more cooperation by needing to know the positions of your other teammates reminded me a lot of Monster Hunter gameplay. That's really cool.

    I'm overjoyed you played Reforged! I'm one of the team members of Reforged, with the role of doing quality assurance and map editing. I was previously a regular on the Reforged Discord server before joining the team a few weeks ago, so my contributions are a bit too recent to be seen in your recordings. I've been watching your videos for years and have nothing but respect for you. My biggest undertaking with Reforged so far has been fixing literally thousands of errors throughout all of Elden Ring's maps, from floating trees to flickering textures to pieces of furniture clipping into each other. I also help place down new content that is being added -- such as a new kind of harvestable resource coming soon -- and polishing areas added or changed by Reforged, such as the extensively overhauled tutorial that was added after your playthrough. The community of Reforged is welcoming, friendly and inclusive, and the people there are very happy you have brought your amazing community's eyes onto it! Lots of exciting stuff is coming to Reforged in the future that I am excited for everyone to get their hands on.

    Normally I’d be side eyeing the anti cheese changes because I view cheese as a way for less skilled and fromsoft-pilled players to make progress without having to practise past the point of it no longer being fun for them. but I think the difficulty options are a good alternative way to avoid that situation
