    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.

    Very good, its a souls-game just improved upon with bigger lore and more broad gameplay opportunity also that its open world which makes it fun to explore and get better equipment use on the bosses.

    Si no les gustó el juego y nunca antes habían jugado un souls les recomiendo que le den otra oportunidad. 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. Pero una vez que entiendes el sistema de combate, y logras pasar el primer filtro de dificultad, el juego te engancha de una manera increíble. El juego no es malo, solo es distinto a la mayoría de los juegos que uno suele estar acostumbrado a jugar, y sí, es difícil, pero rara vez injusto. Si mueres en algún momento del juego suele ser por culpa tuya, y no por un error de diseño.

    Respecto a los problemas de bugs tengo entendido que ya fueron solucionados, así que no hay razón para que no puedan disfrutar de esta joya.

First Souls like game i have ever beaten and the experience is so organic and makes me regain hope in the video game industry and reminds me time and time again that there are good video games that are worth your time. this game is like dark souls 456 all in one game, sure its hard and you die probably over 50000 times, but that is the gameplay. I truly enjoyed playing this masterpiece and i hope either this or god of war ragnarok wins goty 2022! excellent work Fromsoftware

    my steam review
    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. Highly recommended to anyone who likes adventure games.

    Incredible 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.

A difficulty that challenges you quite a bit. The visuals in this game are also great every time I use magic, weapons with ash that have visual effects I get maximum enjoyment. The bosses all look both beautiful and menacing at the same time. And even when you just travel around the map, your eyes rejoice watching all this beauty. The music in this game is also great. When you fight the boss or just with the enemies, all this is accompanied by great music, which keeps you in suspense until the end of the battle, but you never get bored. In general I give this game a 10/10 rating and think it and only it deserves to be the game of the year. Expand

The levels are spectacular; there are also so many weapons and spells, allowing you have so many different play styles and builds. The online plays are fun, with now arenas dedicated to PvPs.

From the moment you start playing, it's clear that the developers have poured their hearts and souls into creating a game that is both challenging and rewarding. The graphics are breathtaking, with detailed character models and environments that are a feast for the eyes.

    The story is equally impressive, with a rich and complex lore that draws you in and keeps you invested in the world of Elden Ring. The characters are well-written and memorable, with their own unique motivations and personalities that make you care about their fates. The voice acting is top-notch, with talented actors bringing the characters to life in a way that few games can match.

    The gameplay is where Elden Ring truly shines, with a deep and complex combat system that rewards skill and strategy. There are countless ways to approach each encounter, from melee fighters to spellcasters to archers and everything in between. The loot system is equally rewarding, with a seemingly endless supply of rare and unique items that can completely change the way you play the game.

    But what sets Elden Ring apart from other games in the genre is its dedication to its themes. The game explores complex topics such as the nature of power, the relationship between gods and mortals, and the importance of sacrifice. These themes are woven seamlessly into the gameplay and story, creating a cohesive and immersive experience that is truly impressive.

    In short, Elden Ring on PC is a game that deserves to be played by anyone who loves action RPGs. It's a game that is both challenging and rewarding, with a level of depth and complexity that is truly remarkable. If you're looking for a game that will test your skills and engage your mind, look no further than Elden Ring.

    A-yoo, by far the best game FromSoftware has ever made. It takes everything good done in previous games and improves them, also an amazing open world and suberb boss fights. There are also so many weapons and spells, allowing you have so many different playstyles.

    Indeed a Masterpiece, yep.

    Es la primera vez que divierto tanto explorando cada rincón en un video juego, con grafico muy buenos, una ambientación increíbles, se te premia por tomar riesgos y enfrentarte a jefes de alto nivel es básicamente el mejor video juego que eh podido tocar.

    Flawed Masterpiece.
    The world is the best looking in gaming history Really satisfying exploration and the way the dungeons are scattered really encourages exploration
    The main Bosses are just too great And all legacy dungeons are awesome On the other hand ..Reusing bosses a lot was really annoying and prevents me from calling this game the best in history

It's a challenging game, but never too difficult to master, and never frustrating because of the high amount of checkpoints. There are also plenty of tools in the game to make the combat much easier, such as summoning other players or NPCs for help or doing a mage build. The Story might be too difficult and complex to understand for the casual gamer, but it is very deep and interesting. The Soundtrack is beautiful and fits the game perfectly. The Art Direction has never been better. You can look in any direction in the game and it looks like a painting. There are hundreds of weapons, pieces of armor, shields, spells and more, giving the player an insane amount of options for their builds and adding a lot of replay value to the game. Bosses have very well telegraphed attacks, making it very fair to fight and learn them.

I've also seen reviews saying theres no side quest, well Elden Ring does have side quest it's just hidden in the dialogue. And the way I see it, if you play a blind playthrough missing quest just adds to the replay value once I starts new game plus. New gameplay mechanics slowlys get introdued at the start of the game. I've also seen people say the world is bland, well to each there own but fighting new locations in Elden Ring dropped my jaw so many times. My girlfriend just has fun watching me. The only negatives as is it's locked to 60 fps
    I used to get a stutter here and there but now I only get stutter if I have my Bluetooth mouse on. Believe it or not this game has only crashed once, in my over 300 hours of playing.

    Eu demorei mais de 200 horas pra avaliar porque não conseguia parar. Facilmente, posso dizer que esse é o jogo da minha vida.

    Desde 2011, com 15 anos, eu tentei jogar Dark Souls e sempre desistia porque, além de não ter tempo, eu não tinha habilidade pra isso. Achei muito difícil e punitivo, sentia que não conseguia evoluir, pois os Dark Souls são meio "lineares" se compararmos à Elden Ring. Logo, passei o resto da adolescencia em outros jogos que me davam uma sensação ótima de recompensa por explorar, lutar, fazer as quests, etc. Achei que jamais voltaria a tentar jogar um "souls like" outra vez.

    Porém, em 2022 minha surpresa foi grande ao saber que eu poderia explorar muito mais, sem ser tão punido, poderia praticamente explorar quase o mapa todo antes de poder enfrentar o primeiro boss. As mecânicas de jogo, a curva de aprendizado, a IA dos inimigos, a variedade de armas, armaduras, talismãs, magias, encantamentos e possibilidades de builds são gigantescas. É muito prazeroso jogar (entendam que eu coloco essas classes "clássicas" do meu ponto de vista) de mage, rogue, warrior, paladin, archer... enfim, não há como não se divertir. TEM GENTE ZERANDO COM TOCHA COMO ARMA, POR FAVOR!

    Depois de conseguir todas as conquistas, eu fui para os outros jogos da From Software e consegui completar não só a trilogia Dark Souls, mas Sekiro também (que venha Bllodbourne e Demon Souls para PC!). Elden Ring abriu novamente a porta dos RPGs de ação souls like para mim. Posso dizer facilmente que o GOTY foi mais que merecido, o jogo não peca em nada na minha visão. Facilmente vai ser um dos jogos, senão o, mais jogados da minha vida. E, sim, eu prefiro ele do que Skyrim, podem me julgar.

    GOTY says enough. Although the scope and size of the game isn't quite my taste, and it sometimes takes away from the excellent quality of each individual encounter Im used to seeing from from software. Although I personally prefer other fromsoft experiences more, none of this stops this game from being an absolute 10/10

    Elden Ring marked my first foray into the challenging world of Souls-like games, and it was a captivating journey from start to finish. From Software, known for their prowess in creating punishing yet rewarding experiences, teamed up with George R.R.

    Elden Ring marked my first foray into the challenging world of Souls-like games, and it was a captivating journey from start to finish. From Software, known for their prowess in creating punishing yet rewarding experiences, teamed up with George R.R. Martin, the acclaimed author of “A Song of Ice and Fire,” to craft this epic adventure.

    A Novice in the Souls-Like Realm:
    As a newcomer to the Souls-like genre, I was apprehensive about the notorious difficulty level. However, Elden Ring struck the perfect balance. It was challenging without being excessively punishing. The learning curve was steep but not insurmountable, encouraging gradual improvement rather than frustration. Every defeat was a lesson, and every victory a triumph of perseverance.

    Visual Splendor Beyond Resolution:
    Elden Ring’s visuals are nothing short of breathtaking. Even without a 4K display, the game’s world oozes with artistic brilliance. From the sprawling landscapes to intricate character designs, every aspect is a testament to the developers’ dedication. The world of the Lands Between is a vast, interconnected realm filled with secrets, each corner a visual feast waiting to be explored.

    Flawless Execution:
    One of the most striking aspects of Elden Ring was its near-flawless technical performance. Bugs and glitches were almost non-existent, a rarity in modern gaming. This attention to detail was evident in the fluid animations and precise hitboxes. Combat felt responsive and fair, a crucial factor in a game where every swing of your weapon matters.

    A Triumph from Day One:
    Elden Ring’s launch was a refreshing departure from the industry’s recent trend of releasing unfinished, buggy games. From day one, it was a complete and polished experience. This speaks volumes about the dedication of From Software and their commitment to delivering a top-notch product.

    In conclusion, Elden Ring is a masterpiece that transcends the Souls-like genre. It caters to newcomers like myself while still challenging veterans. Its visuals are a testament to the beauty of game design, and its technical prowess sets a standard for the industry. From Software and George R.R. Martin’s collaboration has given birth to a gaming experience that will be remembered for years to come. Elden Ring is not just a game; it’s an unforgettable adventure into the Lands Between.

    Freaking master piece! I love how out of the box it is, I never played a Souls game so coming in fresh into a open world game like this was like a breath of fresh air, compared to all of the stale open world AAA games you have out there.

    A solid 9/10 for me, i'd give it a 10 if the frame dips were fixed, and if the story was told just slightly better. But bloody amazing, people will be

    Definitely one of the best games I’ve played. A lot of time has obviously been invested into giving the game world a dark feel with lots and lots of small bits of information that when puzzled together tells a lot about the lore.

    And the fist game I’ve played using a controller and being confident about it.

    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.
