    Like every souls game story are embedded throughout the world. You need to immerse yourself into the universe to appreciate the details of the the lore and the design from buildings to characters and conversations.

    The open world is well designed. Unlike other souls game where you entered a world from a hub, in elden ring you travel from place to place and experience the whole world.

    Confusing writing, dead characters that flop around like ragdolls, meh graphics, and a near pointless map. You can play this game for hours and still not know what in the world is going on. Seems like it's just a grind fest for masochists and people who want to be thought of as "hardcore gamers". The Co-op feature is by far their biggest miss.

    So this is probably my favorite ps5 game so far, the combat is solid, challenging but fair, the level design is nothing but superb, every inch of this world have dungeons, enemy groups, secret bosses and items that make it a charm to explore. Even if you don't like the souls game this might be worth to check out

Gameplay is weightless in its execution and twitchy at best. The bosses are cheap hitting powerhouses that take way more effort to kill than they should. Dying over and over again is not my idea of fun. This is coming from a guy that is on his 8'th playthrough with Bloodborne so I understand what difficulty should be like. There's a difference between hard and cheap! The UI in Elden Ring is counterintuitive and clunky. From Software can learn a thing or two about how to manage your inventory through games like Immortals Fenyx Rising, Horizon and Ghost of Tsushima.
    The only thing that Elden Ring has going for it is the sound. That's pretty much it. Never again will I buy into the hype like I did with Elden Ring. I'd refund the game if I could, but I can't. Do yourself a favor and don't buy into the hype like I did. If this is the direction of From Software with its future releases then it's going to be a hard pass for me.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Pros-
    Exploration for the first 30ish hours

    Build verity- There are a lot of ways to play this game, but that makes it incredibly difficult to balance

    Lore. I think the lore is pretty interesting

    Cons-
    Bosses. Sorry but it’s not fun to fight an enemy that spams combos, deals a ton of damage, has multiple AOEs, and has very small windows of vulnerability. And that’s most of the bosses in the late games. Just not enjoyable to me

    Pacing. For the first 3/4 of the game, the pacing is fine. But after you get to Malekith, it’s just a boss rush with like 4 difficult bosses in a row with nothing left to explore.

    Final thoughts. I honestly don’t understand how reviewers gave this game 10/10 across the board. It’s good, but it is massively frustrating and has really big drop off in quality in the late game    … Expand

    A game that will be discussed for years to come, this is the crowning achievement of FromSoft. A truly massive world, with depth in lore, characters, challenging fights, interesting and diverse weapons and character builds will keep players immersed for hundreds of hours.

That said this game is a big step back for boss fights which has been the big appeal for fromsoft games in the past. A game with 80+ bosses only has a handful of actually enjoyable fights. The final boss while beautiful will almost certainly be known in the future as one of fromsofts worst bosses. And not get me started on the fire giant. Overal good game but not amazing… Expand

Ubisoft made better games in 2012-2015 than this crap and Rockstar is still king of open world games. Elden Ring is an absolute joke compared to single-player mode of GTA 5.

It takes the mechanics and gameplay of each from game and puts them all together and it works. Combat feels great especially when you start finding new arts of war, combined that with spells and the new mounted combat and jump attacks. It took me a slight adjustment period but I'm hooked. The world is huge and full of loot. The trademark atmosphere that's from soft games are known for is here which is impressive given the open world format. I'd highly recommend to anyone especially a fan of dark souls.
    Great universe and level design, creepy and interesting enemies and enemy encounters, exploration is rewarding and amazing and combat feels really good and very responsive.
    Maybe I'm gonna sound ludicrous, but as soon as I got to the open world (which happens pretty fast). Feels great! That sensation that there's is a vast world to explore and you don't know what you're going to find and how many times you're gonna get into trouble. This is a kust play gane for any Souls game lovers!!!
    Absolutely phenomenal. I think it's the freedom to get better and then come back to bosses when you are ready that attracts me. I have just walked out into the world, and wow, mind blown.
    Soulsborne games are not somethin u can get straight away and they mostly take patience, clearly everyone heard about the hype but didn’t bother to research. They have their own genre because they are niche, they were never meant for everyone.
    Any one who leaves a 1 star couldn’t get past the solider of godric in the tutorial or prolly didn’t even kno u had to jump down.
    Enjoy it at ur own pace, the thing that is great about these games is everyone enjoys them in different ways.
    And just anyone who respects beautiful games with heart and soul put into them.
    This game is exactly what i was craving!!! Love it.
    The story is very engaging and the battles are tough and take time to master like other soulsbourne games. FromSoftware has done it again. A must try game.

    From the bosses, to the world building and the excellent characters, Elden ring is a perfect execution of the FromSoftware formula, and I hope to see FromSoftware do more like this in the future.

    Where to start? Fromsoft's beautifully made Souls-like is definitely impressive when it comes to sheer scale, and the world is awe striking, something many Western open-world RPGs often lack. The gameplay is similar to other Souls-likes: A near-religious commitment to realistic combat flow that requires one deploy their full arsenal of parries, dodges, and opportunistic strikes. It's thisWhere to start? Fromsoft's beautifully made Souls-like is definitely impressive when it comes to sheer scale, and the world is awe striking, something many Western open-world RPGs often lack. The gameplay is similar to other Souls-likes: A near-religious commitment to realistic combat flow that requires one deploy their full arsenal of parries, dodges, and opportunistic strikes. It's this quality that has made Fromsoft's library so unique. But while Elden Ring offers the usual level of difficulty one would expect from Souls-like games, it also gives players a host of ways to cheese through its many difficult encounters. This comes from the ability to freely wander the entire open world right from the start. Players are able to traverse the lands and find weapons and armor that, while not totally eliminating the game's difficulty, make it much easier to advance.

    The game's steep learning curb make it semi-hostile to casual gamers. Anyone willing to learn ER's myriad mechanics, however, will adapt. Then comes the satisfaction of taking out a tough boss, after numerous tries, with only the skills you have available. This stick-carrot method to gameplay philosophy creates a satisfying experience.

    Now for the cons: As a more story oriented gamer, the obscure plot was somewhat impenetrable. This led to me sometimes wonder what I was doing and why I was doing it. Also, the post-modern bend, where every character you encounter tells the story in their own way, filtered through their own agendas, means that players are forced to not only imbibe the story being presented--they must piece it together themselves. This is an interesting design philosophy, and one that I believe is unique to video game storytelling. Nonetheless, finding a sweet spot between piecing the story together yourself and presenting a relatively consumable narrative should be Fromsoft's goal in future games to further mainstream success. There is, however, something to be said for game's that eschew mass market consumerism.

    Also, the world felt relatively dead. Because the setting is somewhat apocalyptic, I forgave the lack of town's, and the relatively low number of friendly NPCs. And about those npcs, can we get better writers next time? Absolutely none of the npcs in the game have any personality, and they all deliver their lines in the same awkward monotone. This is supposed to lend to the games dreary atmosphere, but it made the setting feel drab and boring, and that's unfortunate because ER is anything but. ER's world is beautiful and deadly. It would be better if it felt more lived in, too.

    All that said, this is a solid title. The game's design aesthetics feel very Japanese, and anyone who is into old Japanese action-adventure games, like Actraiser, will likely enjoy it. Fans of Souls-like games will, of course, love this edition to Fromsoft's canon. This game isn't for everyone, but if you're willing to learn its rhythm, this is a fantastic, massive (massive) game with tons of playability. An easy shoe-in for game of the year.    … Expand

    Bosses defy physics, quests cannot be tracked, many NPCs re-spawn after you rest., low AI npcs which do not react unless you're almost in their face, large relatively empty world. Its not a bad game, its just not amazing.

    Elden Ring is a good game, make no mistake, but it's overhyped to the extreme. If you like Souls titles, you're going to enjoy it, but it does little to change the formula and suffers from a rushed second half. The talk of it being 'the greatest game of all time' is, in my view, quite silly.

I was so hyped for this game after it's reveal and after playing dark souls 1 and 3, bloodborne, sekiro, and even deracine, I expected this game to be the best part of all them. But if anything, they just removed the best aspects of their previous games, from the beautiful levels that were handcrafted to near perfection, elden ring just doesn't have that. The open world of limgrave although stunning to look at first eventually devolves into bland empty grass fields with groups of brain dead ai scattered across. It's not even worth fighting them due to how little runes you get after clearing them. There's also dungeons that are about as pointless to explore due to how uninteresting it is to explore with the final boss at the end just being copy pasted from other areas, honestly i don't get what's so special about the open world at all, if anything it drastically ruins the flow of the game. There's also static npc's you could find stand around all day and night barely moving to just spout exposition at you while you're character just stands there when you talk them. The core combat is fine but it's just dark souls 3 again which after sekiro feels like a big step backwards.

I believe the pve is overpowered. Especially when you are trying to reach an important area to advance the game. I have had to respect my character two times to advance. This is not good game design. The Fire Giant is almost impossible. You can't finish the game without beating it. There is little help, and no mimic help. Why have a mimic when you can't use it in the most important areas of the game. The blood, and bleeding is way overpowered. Invaders can one shot you. There is very little defense against the most overused builds in the game. I got sick of fighting all the bosses with blood builds. I really wanted to give the game up. Now I played Nioh, and hated the game. I even platinumed both Nioh games. Has From gone so far to cheapen their games competing with the Nioh Team? I am not sure I am going to finish Elden Ring. They dumb down good weapons that let you complete with the overpowered and unfair bosses, but not the bosses. They need to look at the way people are struggling to get through. The NPC's that help are crap. I miss the good NPC's in DS2. One good thing, the horse. I loved it. The world is too big, and coop help is too scattered around the big world. The lines are interesting, but way to long. The Alexander Jar line is ridiculous.

    They did it again, this game is amazing. The map is huge with a lot of things to do, there is always a challenge around, a boss, a puzzle, a sidequest. Totally recommended

    If you like games with no story, ps2 graphics, nintendo64 physics , corrupted save files and boring bosses that take hours to beat definitely pick this up. Worst game ever.

    ER is the best of From Software ever released. They learned from their experience and put together this masterpiece. Yes frame rate drop is occasionally annoying, but everything else is strong enough to call it a masterpiece and give it 10/10. It is a true definition of a “must-play” game.

    Elden Ring was created to waste a players time, in order to hide a complete lack of content. The ultimate no lifer game. I'm not sure why it's getting all this hype I made an account just to rate this game. I almost feel as if the game paid for these perfect reviews. Honestly very disappointed and hope people realize how overrated this game is.

    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.
