    Por otro lado a pesar de que mi nota sea alta no está exento de problemas y "problemas":
    Como por ejemplo que los enemigos y "miniboses" se repiten y mucho a lo largo de la aventura,
    La cámara sigue traicionando como en anteriores entregas y te llevarás más de un susto con este tema.

    En definitiva un juegardo muy recomendado por mi parte y si eres fan del género compra obligada.    … Expand

    The first thing you should pay attention to is how the game works technically. Many bloggers complained about extremely poor optimization and constant FPS drops, I played on a patched version and noticed such moments infrequently, well, literally 3 times in the whole game, the FPS is quite adequate at high graphics settings (more than 70 mostly) (RTX 2070 s), however, there is one thing inThe first thing you should pay attention to is how the game works technically. Many bloggers complained about extremely poor optimization and constant FPS drops, I played on a patched version and noticed such moments infrequently, well, literally 3 times in the whole game, the FPS is quite adequate at high graphics settings (more than 70 mostly) (RTX 2070 s), however, there is one thing in the game there is vertical synchronization, which cannot be removed physically at all)) Such a function is simply not available in the settings, and I had to download a mod that fixes this case, for the 2022 game, this is simply unacceptable,in my opinion.
    Cons of the game:
    The balance is dead, If you are under-pumped, you suck hard, if you are over-pumped, then your opponents suck, the map is divided in its complexity extremely strangely and even counterintuitively in places, there are no hints on the complexity of the regions and where to go next. The only chance to understand the complexity of the area is to personally experience it on your own skin, if they **** too much, then most likely you will have to come here a little later. But the main disadvantage of such a design is not even situations where you come to a certain region and they write out the rules for you there, but situations where you easily pass the plot boss for 1 try, due to the fact that you came to him too late (in my case, it was with Rennala). There are also just very strong builds and frankly weak builds, playing with a magician or through katanas on the bloodstream, you will make your life very much easier, yes, you can pump it, but the dominance of blood, frost and any magical stuff is too prevalent, and as a result we see that despite the huge variety of clothes, ashes, weapons, prayers, amulets, most play +- the same.
    The plot, as for me, it's not here at all)) There is some semblance of it, purely for show, in order to justify the gameplay itself. Quests are finally a separate topic, in order to fulfill them, you need to be superintelligent and think like Babazaki, no quest magazines for you, purely developing memory, kids, no question marks either , as a result, for the whole game I completed 2 quests, Rennie and someones else, the witch quest itself was interesting, but it was hard to pass without guides , like all the other quests, And imagine if there was a cool plot in this game and the quests are more intuitive, it would probably be 10 out of 10 game.
    Melancholy and despondency in the second half of the game. You spend the first ten hours in the game with pure buzz and excitement, then, when you already understand everything that is here and how it works, when you start meeting the same bosses in almost identical dungeons, when you are already tired of running around with the same blades half the game, you start to get bored... I was able to remove this boredom only by finding a new katana. I found a bunch of weapons and cool things for magicians there, strongmen, but not for my build)))
    Bosses: almost all the story bosses are cool, even the stuffy bastard Elden Beast, for whom I'm sick of running around the arena, optional bosses, with rare exceptions, are rather a waste of your time, the same type of **** knights, different crystal guys, divine skin guys, guardians of the tree, and the fact that they are constantly mixed/made double doesnt make it more fun.
    Crafting system: what for? I literally used it a couple of times
    Pros of the game:
    Art design, there are a lot of very beautiful and sticky locations in the game, the time of day also brings something special to the atmosphere, this is basically one of the most beautiful games that I've been through.
    As already mentioned earlier about bosses, for the most part they are still very cool, in any case, you will need to learn the moveset, some other features of the boss. The only thing of course, almost all the bosses in the game seem to be on some kind of speed, they are super aggressive, I don't even know how to survive here in heavy armor, so it's sometimes difficult to do without calling dust, which will take the boss on itself.
    Gameplay: a very skill-dependent game, which I, of course, like many, really like it. There are a lot of different options for how to split up this or that mob / boss, a lot of builds, etc.,    … Expand

    One of the best Open World Games of all time.
    It's an instant classic and an absolute pleasure to explore.
    From the technical side it's pretty underwhelming though... Performance is honestly terrible and the music isn't as good as DS3 or Bloodborne.

    If you liked any of the Fromsoft games starting with Demon's Souls you'll love it. If you didn't, then perhaps Elden Ring is not for you. While it is more forgiving than some of FS's previous titles, it's still a "souls" game... Be ready to spend hours trying to figure out enemy's movement patterns and die a lot. If this does not sound appealing then again, this game is not for you.If you liked any of the Fromsoft games starting with Demon's Souls you'll love it.

    What differs it from previous games is the world, which is not only open but manages to avoid the ubisoft formula. There are very few icons on the world map marking locations, and they only pop up once a location is discovered. There is no filler in the shape of find-all-flags or collect-all-logs and so on. There are no objective markers, a journal, quest log, character dossiers, collectibles etc. You are expected to pay attention to what NPC's are asking you to do, often indirectly and often in passing. I found this refreshing, as most games these days seem to be going out of their way to force you to experience everything they have to ofter, and they will remind you of the things you haven't, every time you open a map. When you discover a new location in ER, it's your discovery, rather than an inevitable stop on a theme park ride prepared by the devs. I liked it, would recomend it to a friend.    … Expand

    'ELDEN RING' should be awarded '2022 GAME OF THE YEAR Most awarded game'.
    Action and combat are the best.
    The grandeur and detail of the map
    It's as good as The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim.

    And the elements of the adventure and the way the dungeons are explored are good enough to remind me of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

No micro transactions, no F2P, just absolutely fantastic gameplay, artstyle, level design, and most of all, bang for your buck. I’d pay over a hundred dollars for games if they were even remotely as immaculate as this game. 10/10 I can’t recommend enough.

    The environments are better than any fantasy RPG that has been released to this point. Many of the vistas are like looking at a painting. This is highlighted by many of the in game paintings of the vistas in artist shacks. The artwork is fantastic, beyond anything other companies have attempted to do to this point.

    From Software has mainly focused on decaying or dying worlds. This is also true for Elden Ring. Instead of having a ton of quests requiring logs and tracking, there are localized quests and a few long, story-driven quests to follow. Many of these take you to places you would explore on your journey. When NPCs talk about them, it is very likely you already have the location on your map. Joining factions often gives you the ability to teleport to their base.

    The open world is expertly crafted. It leads you to where you need to go without annoying tracking systems that have plagued RPGs in the last decade. Many players will miss such systems, desiring for the game to tell them where to go. This game is more about exploration, and the exploration is rewarded well. Often with a new weapon, art, or summon.

    Multiplayer in the game is integrated well into the game world. Invasions still occur, but only in multiplayer sessions. As you have seen from other reviews, the game is difficult and frustrating for some people to solo. If you want to play alone, around half of the optional bosses are tedious fights without over leveling or having a good build. Coop is necessary for many parts of the game. Coop is where the game shines. Use it. It is easy to drop in and help others or find players at many of the summon points throughout the game. Playing multiplayer opens you up to invasions, which provide a sort of miniboss for coop players. Many invaders come prepared with good builds, items, and arts. Rarely do they win though since they often face 3-4 players. At this point, everyone is packing some sort of weapon art or spell that will make quick work of another player. You have to be a better player to win.

    Few games really integrate everything into a game so well. If you enjoy hard games, are willing to do coop, git gud, and enjoy exploration, then this is a good title for you. If you are looking for a single player MMO, then it isn't for you.    … Expand

    Elden ring memberikan eksplorasi yang sangat baik dalam game open world. Kebebasan dalam bagaimana cara untuk menjelajah gamenya membuat pemain memiliki banyak cara untuk menamatkan gamenya. Variasi build yang sangat banyak juga menambah kebebasan dalam game ini.

    This is a huge world, fraught with many secrets and mysteries, where you can spend dozens of hours without even killing the first story boss. Elden Ring is FromSoftware's best work to date and one of the best games of recent years.

It is not PERFECT, but its the closest to perfect in a game I have experienced in a long, long time. It is challenging, but just the right level of difficulty and the beauty of the way this game has been crafted is that you can walk away from a fight that is just a bit 'too' difficult, level up some and come back and try again. Never before in a game has progression and levelling up seemed so tightly bound to your progress. It makes for a very engaging and addictive experience. The graphics are not absolutely spectacular, but they are beautiful nonetheless. The Art direction is splendid, everything looks so richly detailed and interesting and some of the vistas are breath taking. Enemy variation is excellent, you never know what challenge you are going to face around every corner, but it just makes for a very tense, exhilarating ride! Performance wise, PC has had a few niggling issues, but thankfully nothing I have noticed too much (the odd frame drop) but I am sure FromSoftware are on top of this.

    This game is an absolute triumph. A Masterpiece. Please play it, you will not regret it.    … Expand

    I really don't get this review bombing of an excellent game. This masterpiece blows any other similar game like breath of the wild out of the water. It has better graphics, sound, atmosphere, gameplay etc. They even finally managed to nail the controls/options almost perfect.

    About the story: It might be basic but I think it's perfect to focus on relevant things and not waste my time with tons of text or mindless dialogue that doesn't have any relevance. For me this focused way of story telling is nearly perfect.

    Yes souls games might not be too beginner friendly. You will need to look up some info and basic mechanics like iframes and maybe watch some videos to understand how to play correctly etc. Also you will need to adapt your strategy depending on the enemy and use your brain a bit. If the enemy is using a knife consider using a shield to block or parry those weak hits. If the enemy is hitting slow but hard consider dodging. If the enemy is shacking the ground maybe a nicely timed jump would be helpful to avoid the shockwave etc.

    Overall this one is the most beginner friendly Fromsoft title I have played so far and it actually offers very good and functional QoL features on top. Absolutely love it.    … Expand

They don’t realize that the difficulty of these games comes from THEM being a **** player because they were seasoned with the titles stated above, titles that reward you for being a **** player. They are not used to challenges. They want quest markers, dungeon markers, npc markers on the map. They want a difficulty setting. They don’t get what “roleplaying” means in these games. You’re not playing as some killing machine that can crush every single enemy as if they were tin cans, you’re playing as a person who seeks to be that strong one day, and you DO become that strong come late game. I hate that this game became a mountain of hype. Sorry but, the souls series doesn’t deserve this treatment. I don’t know why they decided to open it up to the general, more stupid audience. If this game had the same fanbase DS3 had at its release, I guarantee you it would’ve had a fan review score of 98-99. This game is literally the closest game we’ve had to perfect in its respective genre.

While I have experienced, some performance hiccups, they did not detract from my experience playing the game. I do not believe that they will remain in the game given some patchwork. If you have bought the game and have issues with performance, I can understand being disappointed, but I urge you to get a refund and withhold judgment on it. Come back at a later time, because this is going to be a timeless masterpiece and it would be a shame to not experience it in it's fullest. Games are very complicated and pretty much impossible to get running perfectly for everyone, but given time I believe they will get the game running much better for people who at least have the required hardware or better. This belief is based on fromsoft's previous track record of having initial difficulty with PC ports and the sheer amount of effort clearly put into this game. They clearly care. I don't believe the game deserves criticism for how it presents its story, or difficulty. Nor do I believe it deserves criticism for not having the highest fidelity graphics. This is not the game for you if you are looking for a game that has a lot of story to ingest, or doesn't require much of the player in general. There is nothing wrong with that, people are allowed to have their own interests, but that does not make the game a bad game. If you are interested in the visuals I would argue that, despite not being the most realistic or being the highest fidelity, Elden ring has presented me with some of the most, if not the absolute most, awe inspiring vistas and visuals I have ever seen in a game. I would also argue that Elden Ring is a game that prioritizes gameplay (as I believe all games should but that is my opinion), and if you believe that it shouldn't maybe it isn't the game for you, but that doesn't make it a bad game for it's target audience. As for people struggling with the difficulty, contrary to what a lot of people think the intention behind the game isn't explicitly to be difficult, but rather to present a meaningful challenge that is rewarding to overcome. It is about learning and thinking outside the box. There are plenty of ways to make encounters more manageable, they are however left for the players to figure out. Being hard doesn't make the game bad. This game is quickly becoming one of my favorite games ever, but it's not for everyone. That said not every game needs to be for everyone. I recommend the game, but I also recommend getting a friend to let you try it first if you are unsure. Games are about entertainment so find a game you enjoy and don't be mad at people for liking a game that isn't made for you.… Expand

    The culmination of all the souls games thus far. Takes the best of each and polishes it. One of the best open worlds I've ever played through despite the developer's lack of experience with such.

Never experienced the alleged performance issues, playing with an NVIDIA 1080. It has removed a great deal of the tedious grinds experienced in bloodborne, smoothed out the alternative playstyles of dark souls 3, and fully integrated the new systems introduced in sekiro, making it into one of the smoothest experiences I have ever had, without compromising on the challenge. Amazing game.… Expand

    absolutely amazing game. Would recommend to anyone any day, definitely game of the year, perhaps even top 10 best games of all time so far? the fact that people who never even read up on fromsoftwares games and instead of bothering to learn the game they get salty, rage quit, and review bomb it to make themselves feel better and make it seem like its the games fault is honestly kind ofabsolutely amazing game.

    Primero que nada, Dark Souls supo evolucionar y mejorar en mi opinión todos los aspectos convirtiéndose en el mejor RPG Souls hasta la fecha,

    Cuando """"Gane"""" el juego vuelvo con reseña final, pero por ahora GOTY.

    I never could get into Fromsoft games before. Tried Dark Souls 2 and 3 and wanted to throw my PC in the trash. Elden Ring? 10/10 would die 30,000 times any day.

    Are there problems? A couple I guess. I do get some stutters on my 1080ti/Ryzen 3600 but they are few and far between. Frame rate locked at 60 sucks but I've got the graphics settings maxed with no issue. The game is beautiful.    I never could get into Fromsoft games before.

    Easily the best game I've ever played.
    The open world is vibrant, diverse, and full of places to explore, the combat is the souls formula at its peak, the story is intriguing as long as you're willing to pay attention to it.
    If you're a fan of From Software's previous works, I don't doubt you'll quickly rank this game among the best.

    Such an incredible experience. I didn't believe the reviews at first saying that this game is a masterpiece, but here we are after 72 hours of gameplay and yeah, THIS IS INDEED a masterpiece! A much better and more authentic open world experience than all the "mouth feeding" "simpleton NPC mind" open world titles out there. Things don't necessarily need to be easy or super intuitive.

A much better and more authentic open world experience than all the "mouth feeding" "simpleton NPC mind" open world titles out there. Things don't necessarily need to be easy or super intuitive. There is so much more meaning in a game like Elden RIng. Just give your self a chance to try it. It is the closest thing to a DnD gaming experience, everyone has a different journey. The world is incredibly mysterious and rewarding, it's fair to say that nearly every corner of this nearly endless world has something hiding, something that most of the players could potentially never see or experience. I hope that new patches will fix some minor performance issues for PC. Otherwise, me and my friends loved every single bit. Felt like playing Elder Scrolls : Oblivion or any epic game of the deep past again. Certainly a game changer for the whole industry and open world Genre!… Expand

    Elden Ring is the first FromSoftware game I have played, and now that I have played the game for some hours, I only have one major complaint, the fps spikes/lag spikes. If they optimized the game a little I would definitely give it a ten out of ten. I have a pc that should have no trouble handling the game on max settings, but I still get the spikes even if I go on low settings.

    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.
