    Talves seja o melhor soulslike ja feito.
    Não sei se vão fazer algo melhor do que isso.
    From software so erra no boss final, parece q nao sabem fazer boss final.
    Fiz todas as conquistas, vou jogar um dia novamente, talves em outra plataforma ou com uma build diferente.

    If you are a fan of souls-like genre, just go for it.
    For sure it has some minor fouls, but hey, it has 94 metascore. Just go for it.

    a classic fromsoftware game you will love it or you will hate it.for me the game is a masterpieace but with poor optimization. the game runs awfull considering the specs i have (amd ryzen 5800x and a rtx 2080 super) other than that if you are playing on a conlose i think is a better experience for sure. lets hope so for further update fix the optimization problems..

    My first Fromsoft Game. I heard all of stuff about their games being incredibly hard. And to be honest, I was overwhelmed at first, struggling to fight even basic enemies.

    However, little by little you begin to realize how many tools you have at your disposal. It isn't just about "getting good". Learning how to use those tools, through exploration and experience, are just as important.    My first Fromsoft Game. I heard all of stuff about their games being incredibly hard.

I eventually hit a point where I understood the game, and suddenly I felt like I understood the entire appeal of this franchise.

    Only downside; exploration gets a little boring towards the end of the game, especially when you already have all the gear you really need. Overall though, excellent.    … Expand

    From Software at its finest: this game blends every FS title from Demon's Souls to Sekiro and become something completely new, fresh and original. A game that sets the new startard for open world titles from now on expecially in the exploration and level design. It has some problems and poor choices, but overall is an overwhelming experience that keeps you going for hundreds of hours, literally

I play on xbox but I have also tried it on PC and although it gives lag at certain times it is very playable, the fact that many people say that many reusable things from the previous dark souls are used is because all the original ideas of Elden ring were from dark souls 2 and some from 3, since they couldn't be implemented there, they ended up putting it in Elden ring, but that's good, they don't know how happy I felt when I went through the hanging chains on the mountain of the giants reminding me of the DS2 chains of the mountain of dragons that I do not remember its name, it is a game that recycles a lot but that is good and does not ruin the experience, what if it is just the damage that the special enemies do in the final part of the game, they do too much and not even the heaviest armor protects you as they should, but it's a game with the best soundtrack I've heard just being passed through DS1 and majula from DS2, the fights are also original and good, those of the gargoyles that many You could complain, they were perfect for me and one of the best in the game and to finish...

The art direction is something I absolutely fell in love with, the NPC's while hard to find, were worth finding in my opinion, if only too see this gorgeous world through them. Exploration has been my favorite thing since this game's launch and finding the many many *many* secret areas in the game has been a blast.
    The combat is amazing, fighting and overcoming a hard enemy or boss was just *muah* chef's kiss.

Елден Ринг же за ручку ведет тебя по сюжету. Тут и благодать со стрелочками направления и советник в лице Гидеона. Пепел который можно улучшить так что тебе и драться с боссом не надо. В общем единственный минус который сейчас есть-это не хард соулс игра.(я просто так покупал несколько клавиатур и не одной не разбил??)
    Скажу о плюсах - открытый мир это то что я ждал. Вариативность прохождения очень большой плюс. Механика боя немного не доработана. Таргет спадает а некоторые противники пробивают текстуру стен? Но это с патчем будет исправляться. Интересный лор который в каждой серии соулс игры очень запутан. Описание предметов которые дополняют этот лор... Я обожаю читать эти описания за это отдельный +бал.
    Графика это отдельный пункт который я хочу описать и пронумеровать
    1)Прорисовка НПС-9/10 очень хорошая прорисовка и физика одежды и аксессуаров (9 что бы не зазнались)
    2)Прорисовка персонажа ГГ-10/10 не понимал никогда зачем создавать красивого персонажа если потом он спрячется под тонной броней. Поэтому буду судить по тому как броня себя ведет в бою. Детализация на высшем уровне, физика одежды и оружия это 100/10 все подвижное, в бою по текстуре ударил меч ударился об нее в общем проработана.
    3) Мир- прорисовка мира это просто нечто, забрались на высокую башню вот вам и карта, дальность прорисовки удивляет, ветер который несет листья, трава которая колышется при вашем движении и движении ветра, виды ночью когда появляются маленькие светлячки. Иногда не хочется идти и фармить души а просто скакать и смотреть на эти пейзажи.
    Ну а теперь перейдем к самому не вкусному в этой игре- данжи
    Данжи слишком однотипные и в 80% случаев они бесполезны и очень муторны. Разнообразия ZERO.

    Elden Ring strips down the core aspects of gaming (combat, platforming, exploration) and hones them into near perfection. The result is a remarkably tight hack and slash adventure that provides near endless replayability.

You can be sure about jumping and mount really matters in the soulsborne games and that caused with level designs considering to these mechanics. So that two mechanics aren't minor **** or sth.

    Excellent game. It's maybe the only Open World I love. It's the only one I can travel anywhere without a map because every place is unique and exploration is so rewarding you put many hours into it. Have you tried GTA, the witcher, cyberpunk or Skyrim without a marker, GPS or minimap, even after beating the game? On top of that, level design and art is beautiful

    Gameplay wise, it's varied with lots of cool weapons and differents playstyles. I prefer games with simple controls where you need good reflexes and game knowledge than just farming for better gear until you can tank more hits than your opponent. These type of games are usually unbalanced and too easy in late game or too hard early game.
    Story is cool but, like sekiro or dark soul, the lore is what makes it very interesting. This is the type of game where you question yourself about everything and you go online to look for answers and you realise that you barely touched the depth of the lore (just like lords of the ring, for exemple)

    - Very few bugs (must be emphasized anyway)

    Negative points :
    - Recycling bosses
    - Far-fetched quest systems and secrets
    - Difficulty too simple compared to another FS (because of too many possibilities which allow to pass the too complicated obstacles)

    Elden Ring doesn't innovate enough, like the original Dark Souls, to merit the shower of praise it has received from critics. And it doesn't excel in atmosphere and storytelling in its genre like Bloodborne does. Without these things, I cannot consider it a masterpiece.

    What it does do really well is introduce a stunning open world that is filled to the brim with content. Not all the content is great, but most of it is of such high quality that it boggles the mind.

    A lot of people might see a reused boss or animation and immediately rage and give this game a 5/10, but that doesn't bother me and shouldn't bother you, cause theres more than enough unique content here for anyone who is being sane and level headed.

    At the end of the day, I can't give this any more than an 8 because once again, by playing it too safe, From Software has simply failed to produce something at the quality level of the original dark souls.    … Expand

Les graphismes sont quand même assez beaux. Je ne lag pas, je peux jouer avec mes potes. Je peux choisir de jouer grosse brute, assassin furtif et agile ou magicien de l'enfer. En revanche, seuls la fin basique, celle de la flamme exaltée et celle de Rani sont bien. Pour les autres y'a juste une phrase qui change c'est dommage surtout après s'être tapé la quête de la souillure. Le bestiaire est fou, l'exploration est folle je découvre des zones en ng+4.

    This game made me feel like a kid again. I had gotten to a point where I enjoyed playing video games but they didn't hit in the way that Ocarina of Time or Majora's Mask did when I was younger. The sheer awe and wonder I felt exploring new areas, and the fear and anticipation of not knowing what you'd face next. It's a game you know is going to be hard, but is so fun you run straight into danger.

    a masterpiece. It took me quite some time to finish it but didn't feel bored ever. I wouldn't place it as high on my list as Sekiro which is my favourite but ER definitely is high on the list. ER is quite different from the usual open worlds, because no hand holding which I quite enjoy.. would play it again with a new character as soon as my exams are over.

    After being gifted Elden Ring, and giving it a try, it finally clicked. This game was such a masterpiece that it caused me to go back and play the Souls games. I got all Steam achievements for this game and platinumed Bloodborne.

    The game is a masterpiece, like it or not. Of course it's difficult, but that's just part of the game. The thing is: You level yourself not only your character.

    Elden Ring is by far the most innovative game produced by From Software in the last decade, culminating all the things they've learned along the way. Popping out of the linear game design of the previous titles gives the player base more play on the way they approach the game, alleviating the notorious difficulty the previous titles have had.

Cuando yo jugué dark souls años atrás no me gustó la primera vez, el sistema de combate lo encontraba incomodo, estaba perdido en un mundo que no te decía a donde ir, y encontraba el juego injusto.

    Elden Ring is one of those games you really get involved in, you are fully immersed in the story and the amazing world has so much to offer. The game can be as hard as you want it to be, but the difficulty scaling of this game is a side show compared to the lore that this game brings. This game has revitalised the open world formula that we are so used to and i am so glad to have played this game as it is AMAZING. some repeat bosses, map could be clearer at some regions, but overall Game of the year 2022.

    Elden Ring is an experience that will not be forgotten in a hurry. It's a tremendous, hulking, massive achievement but because it is tremendous, hulking and massive, it is one that comes with many caveats. The shelves in CeX and conversations with people who stopped playing at Stormveil castle can certainly attest to some of those caveats. Much like any FromSoftware title, it's not going to be for everybody, but paradoxically it is one of their hardest and one of their most accessible to date. It offers huge value in one package, and perhaps is a little too much value, only becoming clearer when nearing the endgame. Don't be mistaken by the criticism, though. This is a phenomenal achievement with a moment-to-moment that is incredibly engaging and immersive. No doubt it will be deserving of the end-of-year accolades it will inevitably receive. One pushes through Elden Ring as one pushes through life, with all the highs and the lows that it brings.

    Elden Ring is massive, sometimes to its detriment. A thorough walkthrough might take up more than 100 hours to complete, and at some point it becomes clear that From Software did not have enough manpower to produce that much unique content. Still, it remains incredibly addictive even after those 100 hours pass…

    It’s hard to review Elden Ring without being comparative; that’s because Elden Ring is an evolutionary step, not a revolutionary one, and one can’t help but see how it’s built on what came before. Here is a massive undertaking of a game, not for the sake of chasing trends but as the natural progression of the style the company has been fostering for over a decade. It’s amazing how smoothly the transition to open world was and how much of the Souls identity is still present. In the short time since its release, it has already left a cultural mark, no doubt a result of the game’s increased approachability. Even after sifting past all the hype and grandiosity, there’s still an excellent game left and Elden Ring is a clear showcase of FromSoftware’s outstanding expertise in the field. Elden Ring really is just that good.
