Elden Ring

Ok, so i am completley new to these type of soul games. I played first demon soul when it came out and gave up after maybe 2houers. I just didnt enjoy it and found it way to hard.

Now i started elden ring and i will first say this is not a joke game. If you are looking for an easy game you should go on to something else. And all the haters saying the graphic is bad and there is loads of bugs and other issues then either your playstation is crap or you are lying because i dont have any of those issues at all. And graphic btw is a 9/10, its great.

Now ive played arround 40houers and i really like the game. From the start i was abit confused but the more i playd the more i learned.

If a boss or an enemy is to hard for you back of and go somewhere else. Its an open world game and you can go whereever you want. I didnt kill the second boss till i was level 35. It is hard but just level up and even you and me can kill bosses and enemys.

Its a great game. Dont give up if you are abit stucked. Search help on google and youtube and with a bit help it will get easier.

This game is a 9/10 for me.

This game is worth playing. It's worth buying a gaming console for. It's worth buying an entire house just so you can use the TV to play it with.

Don't listen to the low-star reviews or anyone on twitter. This game has more story than those people's entire lives. You will find hours of fun in this game, and I can concur with that because I have played almost 150+ hours now, and I am still having fun.

Then again, this game isn't going to take you ten hours to beat. It also it's going to be easy either. There is no difficulty slider, so you must level up your skill to be able to keep up. Don't expect to beat any boss on the first try either, it took me a good 10 hours before I could figure out the first boss, but from there you understand the flow.

Please, I'm begging you... get. This. Game.

This game borders on being too much. Too many weapons, too many areas, too many items... too many secrets. But the reality is that is it all done to near perfection. Everything from the traversal to the settings to the lore; it's basically perfect. The one thing that stands out the most are the side quests. Just when I thought Ranni's quest was the best side quest ever created, I find myself totally captivated with Fia's quest. The other thing is that you can basically play however you want and it is all enjoyable: mage build, tank build etc. It is hard to imagine another video ever coming close to reaching the standard that this masterpiece has set. Just make sure to clear your calendar.

What can I say. Mr. Miyazaki does what he is good at (I mean the genre). And rightly so, a person should do what he has no equal in. I'm not a fan of video games, I'm more of a film critic than a gamer. But one day a friend gave me four discs, one was written Bloodborne. I completely began to live the game Bloodborne, after that I studied All the games in the Souls series. Elden Ring is waiting for the same thing, I don't want to throw on and praise this next * MASTERPIECE. (No matter what you draw beautiful pictures in front of you in advance) I'll just say that my rating is 10 out of 10. That's it. This game should be for everyone who looks to the future. Good luck and enjoy your game...

I know the massive appeal for Souls games is their complexity, and I even understand why people enjoy this. I'll be honest, for me, it's mostly the same. I love that I actually have to work at getting better at the game and learning a boss's moves instead of just spamming them to death, but there's one thing I don't love. It's what made me rate it with a 9 instead of a 10.

I don't like how there's no quest log. You basically just have to either memorize every encounter with a questgiver, or do the quest immediately and even then, you still have to pay very close attention to know what to do. This is something I could've done without. I understand the mindset of Souls fans. I know people love this, but as someone who's new to FromSoftware games, it's a bit annoying.

I think they've done a really good job at welcoming newcomers to the SoulsBorne games with Elden Ring, but what would have made it perfect is to give us an option to toggle objectives and quest logs on or off. That way, the Souls fanbase would be pleased as well as the newcomers like me, who want to complete everything. This map and game is huge and overwhelming enough without constantly having to look things up on my phone.

That's really the only problem I have with the game though. The combat, the aesthetic, the music, world/boss design and weapon/gear design are all top notch. This game is definitely going to be a GOTY contender!
