    Best game I’ve ever played!!!! Fromsoft does it again. A company that consistently provides good gaming has no brought to us over 100 hours of quality content. More than double any other game in contention for GOTY.

    Great game. Best open world. Massive. Best in game design I ever seen. Game starts after 12 hours (after first real story boss). People giving it low rating because they gave up too early in the tutorial area(whole first region is almost tutorial). It's their loss. Hail to the great golden tree.

    This is without a doubt the best game FromSoftware has ever done. This game is huge with tons of dungeons and areas and secret zones to explore, and you will want to explore all of it. This game has tons of builds you can make, complimented with hundreds of spells and weapons that really bolster this game's replay value. Games like this are far and few between, so you better be sure to buy it.

No sólo es un juego del estilo Souls extraordinario, con batallas y enemigos memorables, complicados y , sobre todo, con un lore muy elaborado y extenso detrás, si no que también ha incorporado de forma fluida el concepto de "mundo abierto" , cosa que tiene mucho mérito al ser el primer juego del estilo que desarrolla esta empresa. He leído muchas críticas acerca del rendimiento en PC, pero, por lo menos yo, creo que no importa que haya alguna que otra bajada de FPS's cuando las cosas cargan, teniendo en cuenta que si no utilizamos el viaje rápido hay muy escasas pantallas de carga. Aprovecho para recalcar lo bien optimizado que está el juego para PS4/PS5, nunca me ha dado un tirón (salvo en cierta zona del mapa) y los gráficos también son bastante buenos. Pasando a otra cosa, la "dificultad" de la que muchos jugadores casuales se quejan, y de la que estoy bastante seguro será la causa de que Elden Ring no gane el GOTY (Aclaro que estos premios no pueden tomarse en serio después del robo de rdr2), no es alta, y puede ser incluso disminuida todavía más usando diversos "cheeses" o elementos desbalanceados como la lágrima mimética, RoB, Cometa Azur... o "Burn O, flame" contra Malenia, por ejemplo. Últimamente está siendo comparado duramente con God of War: Ragnarök, cuyos fanáticos más radicales desacreditan el mérito que tiene este juego (Hay que admitir que GoW 5 es un juegazo aunque a mí no me entretenga demasiado), habiendo sido creado por una empresa mucho más pequeña que Sony (Que cuenta con unos 100.000 trabajadores) y aún así haciendo competencia de esta manera. No me queda nada más que agregar, solo espero que Elden Ring sea valorado como lo merece (sin recibir tanto odio de los mencionados anteriormente) y que agreguen más contenido que podamos disfrutar, y volver a criticar, los que verdaderamente pudimos pasar de Velo Tormentoso ;).… Expand

The first time playing it, it felt like exploring a unknown realm in a dream. One of those experiences that you wish you can erase and relive it. The art design, animation, graphics, and different biome in the game, made 2022 gaming for me.

    An all time masterpiece achievement in video game history. The whole experience had me entirely engrossed and engaged. Worldbuilding and design are almost untouchable in this game. My only slight gripe is the dropoff in quality in the endgame but it still doesn't stop this game being as close to perfection as anyone has achieved in this modern era of gaming.

    Cuando Miyazaki llamó a elden ring "la evolucion de dark souls" no estaba exagerando, mu aparte del magnifico arte, el solo hecho de introducir un souls like a un mundo abierto era algo impensable, como lo manejarían, lo manejaron dando una libertad unica, y con un monton de recompensas que hacen de la exploración un deleite. y eso es solo la punta del iceberg.

    ademas de tener el adn souls, Elden ring nos ofrece muchos acertijos y verticalidad, puzzles opcionales muy originales como las torres a lo largo de las tierras intermedias, sin romper el ritmo del juego, la verticalidad en los anteriores juegos se hace prsente en las mazmorras grandes como el castillo velotormentoso o raya lucaria, a pesar de que el juego es horizontal.
    con respecto al arte pienso que es de sus puntos fuertes a comparacion de sus demas juegos y los demás. el haligtree de miquella, farum azula, te dan maravillas de paisajes en los que te cuentan una historia, ademas de que se aprecia de diferente forma con respecto a los cambios de tiempo que alternan entre dia y noche. ni siquiera se sienten vacios, y la posicion de los enemigos es perfecta, es como una jungla, no sabes que te va a caer desde las alturas o detras del arbusto.
    El volumen de las estructuras te hacen sentir abrumado.
    y la historia, siento que es el punto fuerte del juego, está escrito de tal manera que no deja tantos agujeros a nivel de cada personaje, ademas de entrelazarse entre ellos. me gusta mucho la mitologia original basandose en muchas mitologias, como la nordica que es la principal fuente de inspiracion, tambien vemos mucha de cristianismo, mitologia griega, y celta. y como faltar la inspiracion de berserk que en este juego, se hace mas presente que en los anteriores.

    1 - THE MAP: The Elden Ring map is simply something I haven't seen in a while, an open world that WORKS! there is no one guiding you, there is no yellow line guiding you, there is no map in the corner of the screen, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! The game just throws you into that huge and intuitive world that you don't even know where to start exploring, and when you think you're done there's MORE, everything you see is not just a PNG to give the idea that there's a world, everything it's an area for me to explore, for example when you arrive in liurnia dos lagos you see something that looks like a castle, and you arrive at the castle and think "ok I'm going to go in and it's going to be quick, never would anyone put so much work into a simple castelinho" me when you see you're inside raya's academy it would be a huge area with more than 7+ hours of gameplay if you're going to explore everything 2 - THE BOSSES: kinda repetitive and few are memorable, you can understand because it's a huge game, but you could at least work on some models maybe

    3 - THE COMBAT: like dark souls with some modifications you can put special attacks on weapons and there are some different movements

    4 - GRAPHICS: it doesn't matter that much, after all, a game is not made of graphics BUT OH MY GOD EVERY PLACE I LOOK IN THIS GAME IS A PICTURE

    5 - ONLINE: good for invoking help, but for pvp it's not that good

    6 - PLATFORMS: I played on PlayStation 4 and then on PlayStation 5 when I bought it and ok, but before launch I had bought it for PC and... I don't know how it is today but at that time it was very poorly optimized

    7 - HISTORY: I'm too lazy to research it but it doesn't matter much

    8 - SHOULD YOU BUY?: Absolutely! it's so worth it, 221 hours I spent of my life, could I have spent it on something good for me? yes, but still... i have no regrets, thank you FROMSOFTWARE and hope this wins GOTY    … Expand

Both of these really only take effect at the very end of the game, and you can just speed through the mid area and swap builds very easily, so they basically didn't detract from my fun at all.Most fun I've ever had playing a video game.

    Having played Bloodborne and Sekiro before Elden Ring, I can safely say it is the most accessible entry of the FromSoft catalogue while also maintaining the wonder and awe of its predecessors. This alone makes it a top-tier game in my eyes.
    The combat is as engaging as ever, and the open world is rightly compared to Breath of the Wild's in that it conjures similar feelings of mystique and    Having played Bloodborne and Sekiro before Elden Ring, I can safely say it is the most accessible entry of the FromSoft catalogue while also maintaining the wonder and awe of its predecessors.

    One of the best games I ever played, just took the soulslike formula to an open world masterpiece. A lot of hidden places, bosses, features and amazing areas is the strongest point in my opinion. Definetly a must play game for everyone.

    Probably the best open world I've ever played. The landscape is gorgeous. The gameplay is fair and the story interesting. To understand the whole lore you have to read a lot but this ain't to bad. Congrats to GOTY.

The environmental storytelling, combined with the atmospheric world building and refined combat system just makes ma want to erase my brain and discover all of its facets all over again. The epic bosses are the icing on the cake. Mechanically challenging and accompanied by one of the best soundtracks I've ever heard in gaming. Not all of them live up to the standards of the better ones, but still have something unique going for them. Even if it's just a new combination of already learned mechanics. I never finished a souls game before and I liked this one so much, that I'm almost through Dark Souls 3 already and about to buy the Demon's Souls Remaster. 10/10 – we need more games like this, and less of uninspired, soulless (pun intended) products such as Call of Duty, Fifa or anything Ubisoft.… Expand

    Elden Ring is a visually stunning game with smooth gameplay. The world is richly detailed and the character designs are impressive. The combat system is challenging and requires strategic thinking, and can be quite difficult at times. Overall, it's an enjoyable experience for those who are up for a challenge.

    Elden Ring is, without a shadow of a doubt, the best game I’ve played in LONG time. The last time I was this obsessed with a game was Breath of the Wild.

Every single step of the way is filled withElden Ring is, without a shadow of a doubt, the best game I’ve played in LONG time. The last time I was this obsessed with a game was Breath of the Wild. Elden Ring has perfected the somewhat challenging aspect of an open world RPG. Many times the world can be huge but with very little to do throughout it. That is absolutely not the case here. Every single step of the way is filled with something. Wether it be an epic item, a new area with cool lore, or an insane boss battle, this game is PACKED with content. It took me about 85 hours to complete the game on my first run so yes, there is plenty to do. Another thing that some open world games have trouble with is story. They can focus so much on the gameplay of a game, which isn’t bad, that they completely overlook making a good story to go with it. That is simply NOT the case with Elden Ring. While the story is in no way super obvious when you first play, just by playing it again or even watching a YouTube video, it’s easy to see how much story and lore is there. The base story is great but where it really hits home is the side stories. There are so many side quests each with their own story and lore. As you play through and see all these deep and emotional stories intertwine and unfold, it really changes your perspective on the entire game. Not to mention they’re just plain epic. Now the highlight of this game for is the bosses. With near countless bosses and dungeons/mini dungeons, you will constantly be saying “Oh my gosh what’s that?!” and “Holy cow this thing is awesome!!” as you fight through countless baddies. But of course what good are awesome bosses without a great way to fight them? That brings me to my next highlight, “PLAY STYLES!!” There are so many different ways to play this game. You can play as a simple swordsman who wants to restore peace to the Lands Between, a Sorcerer who seems to slay all evil, or even a Samurai bent on bringing world domination. By leveling up various attributes you can use specific weapons and creat the character of your dreams. With hundreds of swords, sorceries, and spells, skies the limit with what you can do. I for example just made a lighting based swordsman and it looks freaking epic. This also adds a TON of replay ability. You can start simple, using only swords and bows, and then on your next playthrough you can switch to magic. It will never get old. I’m conclusion, Elden Ring is a MASSIVE game that will keep you engaged for countless hours and captivate your heart in a matter of minutes. If you’ve never played a game from “Fromsoftwear” this is a great place to start. Is it hard? Absolutely. Does that also make you feel epic when you achieve something? Absolutely. And is this also the game of the year for a reason? Absolutely. The game encourages you to never give up and strive to be stronger. I HIGHLY recommend this game if you’ve never played it. And if you have, go play it again. It deserves it.… Expand

I've already had +300 hours and the game continues to make me fall in love. I find details that I hadn't found on my first trip.

    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.
