Is it worth it to go New Game Plus?
Or I can just create a new character and complete the game from the start again? Basically I want to try a new build but doing it when you have everything at your disposal from the start sort of kills the enjoyment.

Not worth it imo, the only game that is worth it to do ng+ is Dark Souls 2.

I don't know it is kinda fun to 1shot the limgrave cave and catacombs bosses. You know, REVENGE!!! Just remember to take it easy on patches. Use your fist or a dagger that's not upgraded.

I like late NG+ runs for extra challenge and ability to use any build and any weapon.
Hybrid builds with heavy shields and weapons aren’t really possible at low levels.

Depends. If You're interested in pve only, then probably not. If You're big on pvp, then it is probably more beneficial to have a whole arsenal of armor, weapons and stuff to build diffrently when You get bored of Your build or want to meme.

You need to to double up on cool stuff like seals, staffs, boss weapons, whatever.

only difference is in ng+ enemies have more hp, do more dmg and give more runes
that effect increases every time you beat the game with the same character

Exactly No.
If you want review personally all the contents or you play hardcore naked bald run, then yes it's worth it, but only for them.
Actually, it had to be worth to run NG+ but it isn't. Nothing changed from DS3. What you think, new builds, are usually sucks. You can believe me. I tried new runs for new builds on DS3 and ER more than 10 characters for each. But results were usually disappointing. That's one of the reason why FROM is making great weapons more faster and faster on each updates. Also, it is why many people are upset from ER.

If you love multiplay and want to place yourself on passed stage with lower level, that can be one more reason. It's better reason to get back to move to previous stages. But for new build? Bah Full of cheesing weapons and tactics. No worth to reborn for them. It's wasting time. Just try dip some OP weapons with your 120LV character and leave for better life.

Full equipment on the start, that doesn't matter actually. Actually, in many Souls series, 2nd run NG+ is said to be the easiest run in the game. It's even easier than 1st run. But that doesn't matter really. But I don't recommend it because of other reasons as I said. New character with NG is same. If you just want to fulfill your curiosity, then check with your endgame character in 1st run.

Game NG20 here so far. Do you want to develop you character to the max and make it a god? Get every single weapon or a pair of it? Rare consumbles and ancient dragon smithing stones?. Sure go for it.

Its ok to try and score cheap-shots, really (even when you are in a videogame forums duh.).

Then i inspect your profile and see 8k in Final Fantasy online (LOL) hours played.

Its also ok to have terrible taste but nevertheless im thankful for your advice. I prefer to touch something else, remove the G and R from grass and you will have it ( she is starting to hate my sadly :( ). But im sure you get it, an alpha gigachad like you really touches a lot of it.

I've yet to go to NG+. I have 8 characters. I play about an hour a day.

I did NG+ in Dark Souls 1. It was ok. Seems like a "worse" experience in Elden Ring, unless you like being invulnerable.

If you like to keep all your stuff and have sort of an "easy" run, do NG+ cycles and just change your build.

If you want the same hard time you had on your initial run, but with newfound knowledge for your new build, make new characters.

No hard feelings Mr.Weeabo , we are just having some harmless laughs.

Right?
Yeah, me too but it seems Fineous took my comment way too serious.

Guess harmless laughs concept doesn't work both ways, huh?

Ok my bad (for real) usually people uses the grass thing as a insult......people coming to a video game forum to laugh at people playing....videogames. After watching your 8k Final Fantasy hour i pretty much knew this was some harmless fun.

Still you guess what? my 9500 World of Warcrat hours eats your Final Fantasy ones!
