Jan 28, 2023The open-world formula does not improve the Souls-genre, and rather bogs it down.
-
Jan 27, 2023My PC: RTX 2080super, R7 3700x, 32GB RAM, NVME SSD;
Recommended System Reqs for this game: GTX 1070, R5 3600x, 16GB RAM;
My PC simply cannot handle the game, the performance is awful, even worse than on PS5 while PS5 GPU is an equivalent of RTX 2070. So, there simply no optimization for PC players. Issued a refund after 1.5 hours of playing since the game is technically unplayable for me: 0/10 -

Jan 26, 2023The love that breathes in many of its aspects, compared to many modern games gone wrong, says a lot about this title. If you're a fan of FromSoftware, they've done a wonderful job.
-
Jan 26, 2023The Low User score is because of bad people who thought they buy a skyrim. But its different than that. Its harder and you dont get hold by the hand the whole time. Get good.
-
Jan 25, 2023Very nice game, nice experience.
A From Software in open-world.
It's a success. -
Jan 25, 2023a very very very good game.

story:9/10( -

Jan 23, 2023Awesome game that has a lot to offer for both people coming from previous fromsoft games and people new to them.
-
Jan 22, 2023There was a huge amount of reused assets, which completely breaks the immersion. Also, due to the open world, you're always underpowered or overpowered, there are only a few scenarios where you're actually playing on the difficulty that you're supposed to. The Game is still very fun and the main levels are amazing. I also love the theme better than in DS3.
-
Jan 22, 2023Great game has great graphics and interesting story, you can go at your own pace and you set the difficulty you can over or under level if you want to make it challenging or just chill.
-
Jan 20, 2023I can say that this game looks great and I didn't want to kill myself while playing or dying dying dying.. There are some performance issues but I'm sure these problems will be fixed soon.

Jan 15, 2023im a souls like fan & played games like nioh dark souls 1 2 3 & bloodborne sekiro &...

this Game is super unbalanced
even if u explore map & farm in dungen
still u cant beat bosses like godskin & higher boss
unless u have a unbalaced weapon like that ice staff &...

game is super unbalanced -
Jan 15, 2023Amazing game is amazing, It's sad to see such upset people, I dont think there gamers. Anyways it's a really awesome experience everything should play it. It won Game of the year after all!

Jan 11, 2023Truly a masterpiece, everything that worked on previous souls titles was brought here and it was improved greatly.
-
Jan 10, 2023Game was amazing. The open world is very big and interesting to explore. Main bosses and locations in the game are great. I would definitely recommend to play this game.
-
Jan 10, 2023Greatest of all. The perfect artwork from FromSoftware. An experience that will never be forgotten and last forever.
-

Jan 8, 2023To me this game is just short of a masterpiece. A culmination of everything FromSoft has learned from all the previous souls-like games. I understand this game isn't for everyone, as the game hinges largely on its game play which as times can be legitimately unfair.

Jan 8, 2023I'm really sorry, but I just can't manage to like this game.
All I saw was a pretty world, and some NPCs that got me really interested, just to disappoint me later with how poorly written they were.
Congratulations to the artists and composer, but that's mostly it.
Just like other souls games, it ironically felt very soulless to me personally. -

Jan 5, 2023The game just felt kind of boring, it looks great and controls well also but there wasn't ant real sense of progression beyond listening to new character talk like a reddit or discord mod tipping a fedora. It looks great and the boss fights are fun, the rest was meh.
-
Jan 5, 2023
-
Jan 5, 2023The best Souls game I've played, the world is really large to explore, you don't have to defeat a boss to open the map, there are many character classes and many weapons and skills to choose. This is a really good game.
-

Jan 3, 2023It's a privilege to be a soul player. And this is the best soul game ever made. It's Not a game for everyone, it's a game for those who understands the SOUL of Elden ring
-
Jan 3, 2023THIS IS DEFINITELY GOTY, A DARK SOULS BUT OPEN WORLD
IT'S SIMPLY PERFECT! if sonic frontiers is better than this game...
I AM A BUZZY -
Jan 2, 2023Story is completely lacking and without cohesion. The controls are terrible and the majority of keybinds cannot be changed. The gameplay and combat is worthless. Unnecessarily hard. To the point that it feels like a punishment. I have never hated a game this much in my life. After 80 hours, decided i was stupid to keep playing. Deleted. Goodbye Elden Ring and From Software can get stuffed.
-
Jan 2, 2023Very Good Good Good Good Good Good Good Good Good Good Good Good Good Good Good
-
Jan 1, 2023a great open world with a somewhat unbalanced gameplay and powerscaling
still, a very good game -
Dec 29, 2022A masterpiece of soulslike formula. Break the greatness of other games with the grinding and cheesy ways to pass through bosses. becomes a little repetitive in the end, even though still fun and playable even for the ones who's not on fromsoft games.
-
Dec 27, 2022A game that give you everything : Challange and consequences , narative , gameplay , a vast open world. It deserves GOTY 10 times over.
-
Dec 27, 2022They added coliseums, you can invade and be summoned from anywere to anywere, and You can beat your enemies with a litteral finger. 10/10 best game ever.
-
Dec 25, 2022From Software was never worng in anything. I f a game can produce the amount this one does on youtube, you gotta know its good.
-
Dec 23, 2022Game is amazing how ever 21:9 Monitor are not supported just lol , bad port to PC

Dec 21, 2022Elden ring reminds me of Silkroad on time! Time flies...
A great with game with RPG mechanics but I can't be Geraldo Del Rivero. Why? I deducted 1 point for this reason. That's too bad. -

Dec 16, 2022Brilliant game design with possibly the most disappointing execution of any game. It is truly impressive how much they reuse assets.
-
Dec 16, 2022Mesma Review da versão do PS5 Xbox,dark souls de mundo aberto com cavalo com gráficos antigos que não merecia o goty
-
Dec 15, 2022Fantastic game, love everything about, the visuals, the soundtrack, the gameplay. More FROM please!
-
Dec 14, 2022Amazing game

Dec 12, 2022Why is this game so much better then God of War? I notice how every negative review mentions it, and I think it deserved to beat it at the Game Awards. Sorry Kratos fanboys, you loose ;)

Dec 11, 2022Este juego esta genial.
Tiene un mundo libre enorme, una variedad de enemigos gigante, hay cientos de armas, armaduras y hechizos.
Que decir, simplemente es una obra maestra. -

Dec 11, 2022Fantastic game. One of the best i've played. Has everything you want, an amazing openworld, monsters to fight!
-
Dec 10, 2022This game is skyrim for a new generation, it deserves all the praise it has gotten so far.
-
Dec 10, 2022It's a shame God of War can't even compare to this game. What a shame, but oh well, we won Game of the Year!
-
Dec 10, 2022This game is AMZING. One of the best games of all time. These people are insane who are lowing the review score. Screw them
-
Dec 10, 2022If you didn't like this game you're an NPC normie and you got filtered. Keep playing your goyslop Jewstation games.
-
Dec 10, 2022Caused me to finally "get" the Dark Souls formula. I've since beaten DS1, DS3, this game 3 times, and Demon's Souls up next. The build variety and combat in this game are simply unmatched. I can barely stand the mashy combat style of games like GoW or Spider-man anymore.
-
Dec 10, 2022this game is really bad i dont like the combat it is hard for the sake of being hard
-
Dec 10, 2022
-
Dec 9, 2022A massive game that is only made massive by copy-pasted bosses, lazy design, lazy areas etc. The stuttering and lag on pc's even high-end is a joke, terrible port of a terrible game, bordering cash grab territory.
-
Dec 9, 2022Elden ring is a game that proves how much infulencers can effect people. Making a hard game and try to make it look like a good game strategy is should have ended with darksouls 2 but here we are again at this point we should make a hard mario game and pick it as a best game of the year
-
Dec 9, 2022Juega, muere, grindea mata. Eso es elden ring. Un juego dificil si no pierdes el tiempo, y facil si lo haces.

Dec 9, 2022Terrible. No story, no voice acting, just cheap mechanics for edgy players.
-
Dec 8, 2022I literally don't get the hype around this game... it is so empty and boring. Why have so much space with enemies so far and few between... It's like death stranding but somehow worse. How is this game so lauded as being so great?? Literally mind blown.

Dec 7, 2022Elden Ring foi uma experiência bem meme desde o seu lançamento. Joguei no PC e o desempenho estava péssimo, nos consoles em alguns casos não foi muito diferente. O jogo não me prendeu em nada, um mundo aberto bem genérico e preguiçoso.
-
Dec 7, 2022Great game overall. Great open world, great gameplay. The game is certainly not for everyone, but if you like Souls games you will have a lot of fun playing Elden Ring.
-
Dec 5, 2022Game stutters far to much even after patches. Happens the most during fights and around every few minutes. Would recommend waiting for issues to be resolved before buying unless you want to play on the hardest difficulty available...

Nov 28, 2022Another souls game I tried to get into. Its' strong points is a interesting story. Weak points is everything else, especially considering how many soullike games are out there. The control scheme is weird, and I don't see why I have to go through this. When I can play any action rpg on hard mode, and go through the exact same pain, but have more fun.

-
Nov 26, 2022I love this game. I struggled at first and almost gave up after 2 hours...I watched some youtube videos and saw how many different ways enemies could be brought down and started a new character and ended up playing through the game twice. I am actually excited for dlc.
-
Nov 24, 2022Incredible game! I'd say it's the best game I've ever played. There is so much to discover and if you thaught you've seen everything, there still might be some secret spots you left out. Great combat, beautiful and huge map, interesting and well designed NPCs and an overall challanging experience.
Great choice to spend your next 150 hours with. -
Nov 23, 2022At last... an open world game that doesn't hold your hand while ramming exposition down your throat and throwing a bunch of objectives at you. goat 11/10
Gotta love the dad of war shills review bombing this game lol -
Nov 23, 2022BEST GAME ever game of the year and it is way better than any other open world games

Aug 29, 2022Elden 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.
-
Apr 28, 2022Elden 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…

Apr 14, 2022It’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.
