    Game is meh, too hard and kind of boring. Looks like a ps3 game. The "GeT gOoD" kids are just rallying around a developer. FromSoftware could give them a turd on a plate and they would rate it a 10

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Not playable after the patch.

    There have been minor performance issues on the launch day but after a small update today there are missing frames. Maybe they turned on hardcore mode but how should you fight if the boss attacks you and it skips the attack frames. You are getting one hitted without being able to see what's happening or to react. Frame skipes and stuttering makes it unplayable .    … Expand

    Game is not accessible at all. Would love to learn the lore and see the beautiful artwork they put into it but I’m not about to die a million times to some stupid boss that’s stupidly overpowered. Make a difficulty slider so I can actually somehow enjoy it. *sigh* back to BotW for the millionth time.

    This game is empty, pointlessly difficult and boring. Thankfully tomorrow Rockstar releases updated version of GTA 5, so finally there's something good to play. I have finished GTA 5 over 8 times, but i will gladly play GTA 5 again, with updated graphics, over Elden Ring.

    Первое, что бросилось это постоянное утюжка территории, одно и то же час за часом, лично у меня нет на это столько времени. Для меня это дикость, так было в диабло больше 20 лет назад, меня тогда это немного напрягало. Но сейчас такая механика это громадный минус разрабам чтоб растянуть прокачку на % 50-60, да и на большее их фантазии не хватило. Игра сильно растянута искусственно, это видно с самого начала. Девиз: Под качайся дней так 20-30(а лучше 50) чтоб самое ничтожное нечто тебя не грохнуло в первого раза.
    Второе, игровая механика. Искусственно создано иллюзорная сложность, но это просто обман, манипуляция сознанием это искусство. Всё просто hero/Х урон, hero/Х хп, вот и вся сложность, не адекватное поведение мобов. Многим нравиться когда они приходят от игры в ярость или у них психоз, назовем это самобичеванием, проще мазохизм. Таких у нас есть определенный % и довольно большой(армия пополняется), что является не нормальным, диагноз ставить не буду(многие знают), но это скажет любой психиатр.

There is the atrocious combo of input delay accompanied by input stacking. You are punished for playing reactively rather than predictively, despite reaction based gameplay being a large part of souls-like games. The input delay can get you slammed with unfair hits you would have dodged otherwise, and then the input stacking will take the action you WANTED to do, and force you to do it after it's needed, at a time where it will most likely cost you. This game is on next gen and has been in development for 13 years with tons of FromSoft release to learn from. There is no excuse for this poor design and such simple technical issues. It could be so much better, but the way it limits itself through these issues makes it unfun and awkward.… Expand

Alone that wouldn't warrant a negative review, but the combat gets clunkier and clunkier each new game as the bosses get faster and faster. It felt mandatory for each boss to have an AOE attack, a ranged attack, and some type of drawn out combo that afterwards gives you about two hits of room before it's back to unrelenting dodging. Exploring the open world was my favorite aspect of the game. It was fun getting sidetracked trying to get better gear or advance an NPCs quest. But after that it was back to running headfirst into mandatory bosses that are just way, way to fast for the combat. It felt like after Bloodborne Fromsoft wanted to move in a direction of more constant and relentless combat, but haven't found, atleast to me, an enjoyable balance between player and boss. It's not a bad game, it's just one that I feel falls very short of its predecessors, doesn't expand on the combat system that's becoming rapidly dated with new boss designs.

    The story is the same as other fromsoftware games but a new setting. Insert fantasy land, insert event that breaks it apart, mandatory magic/religious/intellectual institute. It's not bad, it's just not new. But the real story comes from the characters and there quests, which are on par with other Fromsoft games. After six previous games of the same story telling formula I would have liked to see a bit more direction with NPC quests, especially in an open world game, as when an NPC tells you to go meet this other person but without any direction it can become very tedious trying to track them down. Most people likely just went to a wiki or guide, and I can't blame them.

    Overall if you're a returning Fromsoft fan they're is a good chance you'll enjoy it, but don't hold your hopes to high about sizable change in the formula, and if you had issues with it before they're going to come back here.    … Expand

    But the boss fights (even mini bosses in dungeons) are incredibly hard. You will die over and over and over again. That's just how this game is designed. Even a "good" player will die a lot until they memorize the boss moves and learn to execute every dodge/block with exact timing. This breaks my immersion and is generally frustrating and no fun. They could have made this a fun game by simply putting in a difficulty setting so that gamers who want to play a RPG game for exploration and immersion can enjoy it.

    Edit: I should mention the "story". There apparently is one but you'll be challenged to understand what it actually is. There is some sort of random NPC talk about historic events but honestly I'm in end game now and can't really tell you much about the story line. I watched a YouTube video a guy put together about the "lore" and it was far more informative than the game. So ... what did GRR Martin actually contrbute here? It can't have been much.

    A few minor complaints: no quest log. Huh. That's a first in any RPG game I have to say. No hot keys for the (MANY) spells available (that's a game breaker really). You literally have to toggle through a list to switch between spells/skills ... during fights that require split second timing or you're dead.    … Expand

On top of that, the game is still unbalanced. You cannot have a good time playing the game how you want. Is this an enjoyable experience? Is it well balanced? Can you actually rely on skill to beat it? Is it playable? Are the enemy AI coded well? Do they just turtle and spam attacks and have input reading that seems to be coded by a student fresh out of game school? The answers to all these questions make me second guess myself. Except the last one- The answer to that is yes. I have well over 300 hours in this game. Solod every boss (without bloodhounds step or OP skills) And because I know it so well, I really can't defend massive parts of it. Shame really. It's a 4/10 experience at the end of the day.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. So to begin I think this game is way to hard or if you want to spend all your time grinding the hell out of this game for days it’s way to easy like I’ve played Bloodborne and gotten to ng+4 and still haven’t died as much as I did on 1 play through on this I think this game is boring and repetitive and truly have no idea why anyone rated this game 5 stars they say there are 150 bosses or so but truly it’s just 50 bosses copied and pasted over and over again most of the bosses are boring it just bothers me how lazy this game truly is the story is veg confusing and hard to follow the puzzles are either way to easy or way to confusing and Elaborate and I’ve found way to many glitches in the game like my summons haven’t worked since day one im sorry I just truly can’t agree with anyone who put this game as 5 stars I think they haven’t played any other fromsoft game besides this one… Expand

    Regional language lock - why?

    Bought the game in Japan. It is locked to Japanese so I can't play it properly and have been refused a refund. Why do this, all the English assets exist and I've bought multiple games in Japan and been able to change the language. Terrible practice

    this game is far from perfect making an open world game and fill it with copied enemies and copied bosses and dungeons this is a ubisoft game more than a fromsoftware game the way that bosses are so slow when they try to strike is so ridiculous the only boss who I had fun fighting wit is the dragonlord Placidusax cuz he is different from the rest i hate this game and ragnarok is better

    The year is 2022.

    - 20FPS dips on a 12900K, 64GB DDR5 RAM, PCIE 4.0 M.2 and an RTX 3090
    - No ultrawide support
    - 60FPS cap
    - Defended to the death by souls fans and I'm not even complaining about the difficulty...

    No excuse to not support those things when I can fire up indie games from 10 years ago and they do.

    The game is unnecessarily complicated. Not impossible to learn all the mechanics in less than an hour, just why. This is a one player game. Do not think it is multi-player.

    Imagine Dark Souls with a horse and meaningless big map. Now dip it in a pile of sh*t. Never trusting reviews again. How do you manage to downgrade from Sekiro to this?? The graphics feel like PS3, combat is straight-up the same as Dark Souls 1, the world is empty same mobs everywhere. Don't waste your money until they balance everything in the game. Instead, go play Sekiro if you haven't.

    Most overated game I've ever. Combat is boring and repetitive. The graphics just are not up to par with other games now days. There isn't much of a story at all and the open world still left me with something more to be desired. It's certainly a game but I wouldn't call it a good one much less best of all time.

    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.

    Elden Ring's engaging combat, mythology and dynamite orchestral soundtrack goes a long way to overshadow an aggressive open world that punishes exploration from the beaten path. Fans of the Souls genre are in for a treat, while newcomers will need to persist to reap the benefits.
