    I thought this would be the From Software game that I actually enjoyed but plays like a game that came out in the PS3 generation and the story feels incomplete. It gets overhyped by the developers cult following.

    Game is just flat out boring and tedious. I was making good progress- I just didn't have an ounce of fun. Everything is designed to be obscure, tedious, and annoying. At best the game is kinda pretty and just... tolerable.

Let me explain.

    Im a huge fromsoft fan and trust only them for day 1 preorders. I've platinumed all their games. Buy It really worries me that blupoint demon souls remaster can launch at 4k 60fps or near to it but elden ring can barely hit 30fps and often dips as low as 15 in sadly the areas where you need consistent performance. I bought a ps5 for improved graphics but all I get is decade old issues which on pc ive left behind with a 3080 though I've Elden ring runs worse on a 3080 than on a ps5 lol

    There is a whiff of cyberpunk about the game where fans are blindly supporting and conveniently ignoring the serious technical issues which also include a few progression stopping glitches / bugs and the occasional game breaking issue.

    And post launch the patches are not addressing these issues. It still looks and runs like a...ps3 gen era game but tlou was ps3 and that ran and looked far better so...elden ring just looks ugly. Great art design but everything else is far from the beauty of sekiro or the grandeur of bloodborne.

    The open world simply fails in 2022. If it was 2010 then I'm sure it be far more impressive as it has 2010 graphics. It's not remotely as good as botw or rdr2 which are games that existed before ER development even started. The latter alone is worrying but the large empty space which witcher 3 dlc would laugh at...isnt much fun to play. Yes You can explore but you'll only find Skyrim like identical copy and paste areas. Forget the wildlife of most open world games or npcs with compelling stories.

    The George Martin element is inexplicably non existent making the game effectively a dark souls 4. The latter isn't a bad thing but it's not as good as ds3 in visuals / performance or gameplay so where does this leave us?

    The game isn't suitable for noobs or non fromsoft fans. It's a game seemingly more for fan boys, compromised journalists and shills to scream "goty!" while they wait for gameplay saving 'Patches' (sorry ;). It's not a bad game by any means but it has bad aspects to it or lazy maybe. Bloodborne launched in a rough state so this is nothing new but it's still not acceptable.

    Wait for a sale a year from now when it's been fully patched. Eventually maybe 7-8 /10 but a 4/10 !t launch due to poor technical state :(    … Expand

    This game is a dissapointment.

    The graphics are not bad but are not impressive either. Many areas and enemies look washed out or faded. The Sound design is OK.

    The graphics are not bad but are not impressive either. Many areas and enemies look washed out or faded. The Sound design is OK. The combat controls feel sluggish which is a problem for a largely combat focused game.

    Some of the enemies and bosses are visually impressive, dragons look and move nice for example, but enemies are largely 1 dimensional 'lone wolf' puppets in regard to their AI and behaviours. They all hit hard, so you don't last long against them but they are not smart or sophisticated so how you deal with them isn't either.You can sneak up and backstab many enemis pretty easily, other enemies in the area may notice (often not though), but either way you can just evade others until they lose interest in the 'commotion' and resume their normal movement patterns.
    The combat doesn't feel engaging, it feels like hack and slash against the weaker enemies and more like exploiting game mechanics and evasion against the strong ones.
    Most of the difficult enemies can be cheesed. You can often kite faster and larger enemies. Others you can use terrain obstructions against.
    The bosses can be much more difficult because they can be harder to cheese, are in a confined area, and they use their own (sometimes cheesy) attacks that are hard or imposible to avoid or counter.

    The game is hard, which is to be expected from this developer, but I would say a large amount of the difficulty comes from being thrown into 'the deep end' without any knowledge or help.
    None of the main systems (character building, leveling, weapon improvement, crafting, multiplayer options, etc) are explained in detail, meaning you have to resort to outside sources.
    The game does not do much to engage with you or draw you further into its story or other quests. There is nothing (like even a basic journal) to keep track of various quests, what you have started, what they entail, what was said, discoveries you made, or where you should look next. If you happen to talk to an NPC about a quest, you had better jot down the particulars of what is said because there is no way to review or recall it if you don't remember it later on.

    The world is huge but is mostly filled with hostiles and not much else.
    There are very few NPC's and merchants.
    Given the other lacking areas of the game's design, there is no compelling reason to explore it once novelty has worn off.

    This game feels more like a grind or a job than an adventure.
    It really isn't much fun and is more tedium and frustration than wonder, adventure, or enjoyment, especially if you aren't willing to spend substantial amounts of time consulting other sources of knowledge to get good at it.
    It left me with the feeling of a poorly translated Nintendo game. One where, since the translation is poor, nothing makes sense and you wander around trying various things and the only way you make progress is through trial and error and luck, or you get the game guide.

    Other difficult games that are great have excellent and responsive controls and give you plenty of knowledge on how to get better. The only thing they don't give you is skill.
    This game gives you nothing in those regards and doesn't even try to weave a compelling narrative to keep you playing or exploring.

    Given the numerous good reviews from so many reviewers, I expected much more from this game.
    I don't understand what they were thinking on this one.    … Expand

    This might be the most overrated hyped game ever! Controls are outdated, player movement is sloooooow! Graphics look great in the trailers but in game it doesn't even look next gen. It is rewarding when you defeat a boss but there's no fun in it and the story is confusing. If you want a fun game with better graphics, gameplay, and story then buy Horizon Forbidden West.

Graphics look rough at times and do not have many of the polished features that other high profile games have such as good face animation or enviornment responding to what you do, very clunky fighting mechanics and I can't stress that enough, unnecessarily unforgiving boss fights, and many and I mean many reused bosses and enemies from past Souls games littered throughout. In my opinion it seems the over the top and unbalanced difficulty is put in place to mask the clunky fighting mechanics and big flaws in the game. Dark souls cultists will love this game and claim everyone who doesn't needs to GG and that they just don't like difficult games, but gamers who are used to other games whether they are very difficult or on the easier side, technical fighting games, and polished open world games will see this game as not designed for them hence the misleading marketing push for this game to try and sell it. It would be one thing if I had fun playing this but I didn't. I feel like I wasted my money on an expensive game. I don't recommend getting this.

    The fighting mechanics are the biggest disappointment for me because it's not really different. When comparing the fighting mechanics to say Nioh 2, it was just boring. Nioh 2 had waay more moves and a waay deeper fight system to perfect in a souls style kind of game. Why didn't From Software learn from that? The fighting mechanics alone should make this game not worthy of perfect reviews in light of Nioh 2 even from the cultists. And the reviews and marketing push on this game have really been misleading. I suspect because they know most people will not enjoy playing this game's highly clunky fighting mechanics, unnecessary and unbalanced difficulty, and being left to deal with no tutorial except the From Software cultists. Do you want a game that you have to look up how to find or get past anything every step of the way on YouTube? Most people would say I don't might doing that here and there but if the game is reliant on that because of how it was designed or poorly designed then no. And anyone claiming this is like Breath of the Wild is an idiot. Horizon Forbidden West is an easier game but it is a better designed game overall and should be easily beating this game rating wise. Reviewers reeeally failed consumers that were not FS cultists on this and should be shamed for it.    … Expand

    You can't pause. Let's say you have an actual life, like your doorbell rings or your child starts screaming or anything else that interrupts you - no pausing, even if you're offline and playing solo. It's 2022 and we're going to give a 10/10 to a game that you can't pause when you're playing solo? Absurd.

    The graphics aren't great. They're good, but not great. Certainly an upgrade, but nothing exceptional. And the entire UI looks like it's still the original Dark Souls garbage. They even seem to be using a ton of the same sounds. It's like they reused as many assets as possible to avoid having to actually create something new when creating a new game.

    I appreciate more tutorial-like encounters to help ease you into the world, but the tutorial section is optional and "hidden" behind an obtuse message that should have just ended with "go here for a tutorial". Basically adding the ability to be more user-friendly without explicitly being more user-friendly.

    I was expecting way better from the story given the involvement of George RR Martin, but no, it's just as **** and mostly non-existent as any other Dark Souls game. And the writing of the dialog is super cringe most of the time.

    For context, Witcher 3, which is vastly superior to this game in almost every aspect, received a lower overall score with fewer perfect scores in all. Yet Witcher 3 is more suitable to a multitude of play types and difficulty levels, still has better graphics than this game does despite a 7-year release gap, great dialog and voice acting (overall), an amazing story with wonderful side quests, and you can pause the game if you need to.

    The only reason I can imagine for this game getting so much critical acclaim is because there's some weird hard-on that the gaming community at large has for Dark Souls. It skews opinions and even rejects common sense at times, in favor of worshipping Dark Souls despite everything that is obviously dated and ill-fitting to a modern gaming experience from a big-name studio that should definitely have the budget and expertise to produce better.    … Expand

    It's literally Dark Souls under another name, if you already bought Demon's Souls this is just more of it. Only difference is that it's open world and more boring. The only reason this got a 4 for me is cause the first few hours was just me exploring the world which was a good time waster but then I realize I'm not doing any progress in the game so it lost me over time.

After playing Horizon Forbidden West on PS5, I’m in pure shock how bad the graphics are in Elden Rings. I was even more taken back by the frame rate. The graphics looks last gen in high resolution if not worst. The frame rate is not as smooth as you would expect especially if you’re used to 60 fps.

    The difficulty is also one of the biggest big turn offs. I’m sincerely not a fan of games as a torture. Games that make you want to throw your controller are not fun and will never be fun. Games should give you a sense of wonder and awe and Elden Rings fails to do this for me. The open world feels dead compared to Horizon Forbidden West. The world does not feel alive, Elden Rings feels empty and void of substance.

    Games should be fun, accessible and make you want to come back. Elden Rings feels like a total waste of money. I wish games like this would just die!    … Expand

    Elden Ring is simply a game that the player naturally adapts to their own style of play. Challenging at times, vicious at others, but mostly incredibly fun. The enjoyable pace makes the hours of play pass by like water, and each path opens up a few more, only to come together again after a fair amount of exploration before the next big reveal.

    Elden Ring serves as a testament to open world video game design. There is a true sense of accomplishment once that rock-hard enemy has been slain and, something that compels a player to relentlessly do it over and over again until they succeed is truly rewarding. The world is humongous and an epitome of how exploration should be encouraged, by intriguing players to see what is over the hill. Elden Ring is an unmissable, must-play, gaming experience with surprises galore.
