Jul 21, 2023So rare to see games with such a level of quality and detail these days. Top tier open world rpg design. GOTY.

Apr 22, 2022I'm changing my review here. I gave it 7 and a pretty crappy review because I was frustrated and irritated by it's game play. It's definitely hard and takes getting used to. But if you do get into it (like I finally did) you will find it's full of wonder and interesting things. Combat is great and the enemies are very unique. Can't stop playing now.

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.

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...
-
Aug 22, 2022Without talking about the amazing story... essentially the main problem is that when you start this game for the first time, even as a long term veteran souls player, you are bad, very bad. After 5 hours you understand that this isn't Dark Souls 3 and you start enjoying it.

Sep 28, 2022I didn't like any of the soul games but this one is an exception because it gives players options to summons and find good gears when they are stuck with a hard boss. This alone makes the game so much more enjoyable for me.

Mar 28, 2022120 hrs in I have to say that this game is amazing. So much to explore and so many interesting monster designs. There is a steep learning curve if you are not familiar with 'Dark Souls' type games but totally worth it if you just push through. There are a lot of guides online to help as well. I did not experience any of the stuttering issues that some of the older reviews in here reported.

Sep 1, 2023The gameplay and world are outstanding.
I personally found the ending underwhelming. -
Mar 23, 2022The best game ever made. Skyrim or Zelda are not even close. Fromsoftware are the best

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.
