    Mega zajebista gra - otwarty świat - brak mapy od razu -wszystko trzeba poszukać samemu. Pierwszy raz jestem w takim świecie i po każdej śmierci chce się wrócić i poprawić się lub wybrać inną drogę.
    Mega polecam wszystkim -gra na długie godziny.

    It's open world dark souls, I have to love it. But it's even less beginner friendly than dark Souls 1-3.

    If you want an Open World Dark Souls this is the game. It combines all off the good aspects of the Souls Series as well as tiny bits of Bloodborn and Sekiro. I would 100 % recommend it if you want a hard game. The only manco this game has for me is the laggy/bad koop part of the game

    I am well aware of other people's gripes with the game, I am not massive souls fan but I have played each of them and quite enjoyed them. I agree with others reviews that the games reuses models, even from Dark Souls 3, that there are pop ins when you load into an area. However the main complaints seems to be that people don't know how to play a game that doesn't hold your hand.

However the main complaints seems to be that people don't know how to play a game that doesn't hold your hand.
    People who expect to be guided like a baby and told what to you, this is not the game for you. Everything is about exploration and beating a challenge, or learning when to move on and return later.

    It is true that there are NPC quests but the game doesn't mark it on the map. The NPCs will tell you or hint at what you have to do and its is up to you to figure it our or stumble on the location like I have most of the time.

    I don't really care about graphics, but the game is very beautiful. Is it Horizon levels of gorgeous, of course not, this is a game where gameplay seems to be the main focus and graphics second. Which is fine by me, as no matter how gorgeous a game may look if it sucks ass I will get bored quick.

    As far as gameplay is concerned, its very FromSoft. You can be a giant hammer wielding sorcerer, or a shield only lightning faith build, or a dual wielding katana, one dealing bleeding damage and another poison, a fire wielding double lance user who throws holy dame when two handing. There are many ways to play the game and yes unlike other soul games, you can respec.

    Don't let salty reviewers who don't know how to read or have no patience tell you what to do or think, but do keep this in mind. If you have no patience and don't like dying over and over, need to told what to do to enjoy a game then this is definitely not for you.

    Regarding story, it is fine. Its not as hidden or confusing as in Dark Souls or Bloodborne. I understood the overall plot, the smaller details I will learn through VaatiVidya, as will most likely all of use giving a high score, like I said above FromSoftware games aren't loved by their story but its gameplay.

    If there is one issue I do have with the game, is the NPC quest component. Unlike previous games this world is huge, having at least a journal in game with the last conversation has with each NPC would be good enough for me. On the other hand, I'm going old school keeping a journal myself with areas and NPC met, its pretty fun and I've never been much of a notetaker.    … Expand

    The game is so good. The open world is huge and never feels empty. You always have something to do or explore.The art direction is beautiful despite the slightly dated technique, without being horrible, but you get through it quickly. I just wish the menu was a bit easier to use. If you like games that don't take you by the hand, play Elden Ring!

    Honestly, fighting some bosses hitless in this game is just horrible. Margit has overly fast swings in phase 2, and Renalla spams way too much magic. This is work-around-able by having some x-factor such as a ranged attack or summons, but being fair to fist/broken sword only is what made dss, ds1 and ds3 (or even ds2) fun.

I've spent 60+ hours traversing the various locations within the game and I am STILL finding things I missed before! With a varied skill tree and no real guard rails, every player is capable of having their own unique experience, exploration and perseverance are rewarded with powerful weapons, spells, armor, side quest progression and new areas to explore. PC players be cautious, the port is not perfect, and due to it's current popularity the servers are overwhelmed. However I find it very hard to criticize this game given the scope and effort put into it.

    Probably the biggest reason I recommend this game is due to the social aspect surrounding it. You WILL see and do things your friend might miss, and the UI is meant to be communicated amongst players. Multiplayer is it's own unique experience, and the game (like prior titles) allows you to leave helpful messages for future adventurers to read. Just don't fall for the pranks that come from some of these messages.    … Expand

That concerned turned out to be unnecessary, as I progressed started attempting mini bosses and dungeon bosses I began to understand the game. There is a steep learning curve which if you can’t keep up with or don’t give it a chance then you will not reap the benefits.
    Yes there are minor performance issues but I have had nothing game breaking other than slow texture renders when galloping around on Torrent. The graphics can be a bit lack lustre but I believe the art style can justify this. Once you begin to get better you begin to enjoy the game more I can see a reason anyone would score this game as badly as some reviews have other than people being bitter, and not researching the game before it came out. I mean if you think it looks bad or don’t enjoy the gameplay you can only blame yourselves. The trailers showcases the aesthetic and you should know what to expect by just watching or playing previous FromSoftware games.

    My only complain is, the reuse of some Dungeon Bosses, just giving them more HP and more Damage, which is simply just boring when you learned the boss already.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Games fantastic. is it an absolutely perfect godsend FromSoftware has bestowed on us from the gods? no, but it is a great game that i personally really enjoy.

    Pros
    The bosses are tough as hell but it never feels like you can't win
    The game is absolutely stunning and there's dozens of spots that are background worthy with how fantastic they look
    the world feels pretty lively. some enemies will fight each other, castles are getting invaded, and festivals are going on

    Cons
    there are platforming sections and the game is absolutely not designed for platforming
    many of the enemies can stun lock you to death, especially if you're low poise
    those festivals, invasions, and such are going on all the time so while the worlds lively it's also static

    I personally feel like my major pros heavily outweigh my major cons and the game so far has been an absolute blast. It's worth a shot even if it isn't for everyone. it'll piss off FromSoftware Diehards because it reuses stuff from the older games and changes up some of the mechanics. It'll also really piss off people who don't want to, or don't have the time to, work hard for a win. Grant it there's plenty of ways to cheese a lot of the bosses. summons, allies, and over leveling, but if you don't have the time to "get good" at the game they probably won't have the time to learn each of the spirits either which puts em in a bad situation.

    If you like more difficult games, or don't mind using every strategy to get a win, you'll really enjoy this game i think    … Expand

    -Un monde gigantesque tant en terme de surface ou de contenu, un jeu qui arrive à entremêler qualité et quantité est assez rare de nos jours et donc à souligner.
    Je me répète : un univers incroyable, une épopée épique et pleine de mélancolie mêlée au gigantisme du royaume (ref à Shadow of Colossus)

    -Une exploration intelligente et extrêmement généreuse avec de vrai récompenses à la clé !

    -Un gameplay sensiblement identique à celui de Dark Souls 3 mais en plus abouti : des centaines d'armes, sort, miracle, etc... des weapons arts (cendre de guerres) à foison et qui en toute la plupart une vrai utilité lors des affrontements et l'ajout d'un saut mdr, cela peut paraître assez anecdotique mais qui s'intègre parfaitement dans l'exploration et le gameplay roulade/saut

    -Une réalisation un peu en dessous des standards actuels mais sublimée par la direction artistique du titre, d'ailleurs celle-ci ne faiblit jamais et je tiens à féliciter FromSoftware pour cela !! On peut donc être un peu surpris par les animations un peu rigides et les graphisme ok tiers en début de partie mais une fois la première heure passée, on est dedans et on ne fait plus attention à ça.

    -Par contre la raison pour laquelle je ne met pas 10/10 est la suivante : Le clipping et l'aliasing sont un peu honteux pour les graphismes proposés en 2022, je ne parlerai pas de l'optimisation PC car j'ai fait le jeu sur PS5 voilà pourquoi j'écris ce test dans la rubrique PS5^^

    Firstly, my only 'soulsborne' games I played before Elden Ring are Dark Souls 3 and Demon's Souls remake. What I liked about those two was that it felt really refreshing and just something new/different from the usual AAA games. The open world RPG genre came to a point where every game felt the same.
    '?' markers on the map to tell you where to go, being spoon fed the lore with 30-40% of your playtime being dialogue. Quest logs that felt like you were ticking off your laundry list. Generally, being held by your hands the entire time.
    Soulsborn games just throw you into a world and let the world do the talking. You discover the story all by yourself by pieceing together the things you see and find. Whenever you find a NPC that talks to you it's something special and you cling to their mouths.

    Elden Ring takes this formula and improved it even more by letting you decide where to go. Every area is filled with dungeons, caves, ruins that tell from a time past. When you encounter an enemy you can't defeat you can always come back later and not be stuck there like in prior Soulsborn games. The combat style is very unique and challenging. You decide if you want to be the big tanky guy with a big hammer that can take some hits or be the agile dual-wielding katana guy that slashes through enemies. Or a Sorcerer that wields powerful spells and attacks from a distance. So many possibilities to choose from.

    I've seen a lot of reviews saying there is no story and the world is empty. These people are used to being spoon fed the story and being guided by markers on the map. You have to actually play the game to discover something . Crazy right? The more you play, the more you understand the story because you progress through it. In other games the 6 Minute intro tells you everything you need to know about the story and the rest is just bonus dialogue.
    There are several endings in this game, giving players even more control over how the story turns out and who you want to be in this shattered world.

    On PS5 I've had no technical issues whatsoever. Not a single crash. The only bug that I discovered was a clipping error which let you see through a wall in Raya Lucaria Academy.

    I didn't play online or coop that much but I can say that it feels really nice being able to summon other players if you need help. What feels even better is helping other people out when they need help. Multiplayer works great, summoning takes just a few seconds and I never had any connectivity problems.

    The only thing why I can't give it a 10 is because From Software enabled trolling a little bit too hard. With messages being able to be placed right in front of ladders for example. That way you always accidentally open the message instead of climbing the ladder. If you're in a hurry and want to escape an enemy stuff like that can get you killed. You can however just play offline and none of that will bother you. Also death blight trolls who can team kill you.

    All-in-all, super polished game with potentially 80-120h of fun. This might not be a game for everyone, yes. But in my opinion the best game to get into the Soulsborn genre. I would recommend it to everyone who wants to have a fresh breeze, a game that truly feels different from all the other triple A games.    … Expand

    A fantastic game overall and a very unique take on the open-world action-RPG genre. That said, I do not believe this game was well optimized for next-gen consoles, especially the PS5 in particular. This was the only game I voluntarily played in quality mode (30fps) for a majority of the experience due to the semi-frequent frame drops, and I'm spoiled rotten by high framerates.

Although I can't ignore how well the SSD works in loading a massive game like this lightning-fast, which especially makes (frequently) dying feel far less of a chore, albeit with some major pop-in every now and then. Nonetheless, the gameplay and design of the game itself are nothing short of amazing and very smartly designed, although I can name a few bosses which relied a bit too heavily on RNG and luck to properly manage (e.g. a certain endgame boss's snow attack, and a gank boss in a mid-late game underground area of Limgrave). I also LOVE how forgiving the checkpoints are before most bosses and major encounters, which IMO, is a massive improvement from past Souls games, especially DeS. Nonetheless, like a majority of people, I strongly recommend this game for Soulsborne newcomers or those who found the past FromSoft games too challenging, but still, know what you're getting into and as everyone says: git gud.… Expand

It shows George R R Martin wrote the script for this game. Even though the story is vague as expected from such games, whatever is there is full of depth. The bosses are exceptional. Even though you’ll die a lot but when you overcome a challenge you’ll be exhilarated. I like their take on open world games. I feel like from now on every other open world game that is going to come out it will be compared to this game. I like instead of going semi open world (linear) souls like games it went full open world. Instead of telling you what to do, it just leaves you be yourself and explore. No overcrowded UI. Instead of crowding the UI with unnecessary stuffs it lets you enjoy the beautiful world they created. Even though there are some improvements that could’ve been done, but I feel they did an exceptional job. I am looking forward to more games like this.… Expand

    I don't like souls games, all of them were not that great and hard to master. But this one is just an epic art show. 9 because lazy noobs will no be able to play this game, no easy mode. I needed one week for Margit or whatever his name was. So I'm kinda a noob too but I'm not lazy. You will get so much game for a little bucks.

This game is a mix between the tightly crafted and rewarding challenging Souls formula we've come to know and love and a sprawling open world with secrets and discoveries everywhere. I was afraid this would break the mostly-linear design of From Software's previous classic entries but it only strengthens it in my book, adding an entirely new layer and showing a natural evolution to the formula.

    You're let go almost instantly, with only a general pointer in the direction of the main story, but you'll quickly learn that rushing the bosses will be a grueling and punishing feat, encouraging exploration. While From Software, for some reason or another, still struggle with confusing UI and menu navigation for newcomers, this game is more beginner-friendly than ever before.

    No more is the solution to encountering a hard boss to just keep trying again and again for hours. Now you can do something else. Empower your weapons, get significant new abilities and ashes and much much more, but most importantly: gain experience. There are also a ton of different playstyles available of different difficulties, so while there might now be a difficulty slider, the player can choose differing paths to get an easier or harder time with the game.

    The story is pretty obscure, so unless you're willing to read and read and explore every corner of the world, don't expect to get a clear cut picture of the world you're in. My other main gripe would be the horrible performance on consoles especially and all PC players daring to put the motion blur on.    … Expand

The weapon variety is a mad from sorceries to spells to great swords to bows and more. The story is surprisingly interesting and tells you very little about how to get there. Obviously this isn't for everyone the game doesn't even have quest log or a journal to follow you need to remember what to do and you need to find it. But the level design is not as good as it should be. It's still great but sometimes it is horrible. Trying to complete the frenzied flame ending was so stupid. You need to parkour down some tombs to reach the bottom where you can finally defeat the boss. Sometimes sites of grace are put in the worst places. For example the site of grace near where you fight Leonine Misbegotten is so badly placed it is unbelievable sometimes enemies hit through walls, sometimes the game crashes and there is pop-in everywhere. Rhadan has been nerfed at the time of writing which i hate because Radahn was always viewed as a big opponent and that the odds were stacked against you but now he's not. I beat him in one go when i was underleveled. Everything I've meantioned apart from the level design problems i believe doesn't take away from the game.

    Like all of FromSoft’s other new IPs this game definitely has an adjustment phase for it before the game “clicks,” but it happens faster than Bloodborne or Sekiro in my opinion. This game is a really good blend of all of their previous games. The combat isn’t as fluid or fast as Sekiro or Bloodborne, but it does well at combining the magic system from Dark Souls with faster paced combat.Like all of FromSoft’s other new IPs this game definitely has an adjustment phase for it before the game “clicks,” but it happens faster than Bloodborne or Sekiro in my opinion. This game is a really good blend of all of their previous games. The combat isn’t as fluid or fast as Sekiro or Bloodborne, but it does well at combining the magic system from Dark Souls with faster paced combat. My biggest issue with the game is how some field bosses and optional bosses are recycled. However, the sheer amount of content and enemies does a decent job at offsetting this. The open world can be lacking in some areas, but it feels appropriate due to the lore of the area. Exploration of most areas is fairly simple, but almost everywhere there’s some well hidden unique location.

    The graphics are nothing to write home about from a technical standpoint, but artistically this is possibly the most beautiful game I’ve played—better than Ghost of Tsushima, God of War 4, and the Horizon Series. Areas like the capital and Nokron are places you spend so much time just looking at. The story is typical for a Souls game but it’s closer to Sekiro in terms of how ambiguous and hidden it is. As usual, this game isn’t for everyone but it’s far less niche than previous titles. If you enjoy exploration for the sake of exploration or you are a long time souls fan, this game is for you.    … Expand

    Sim, morri bastante no jogo. No final, terminei dropando do jogo mas tenham certeza que jogarei novamente e que trarei a experiência no meu canal na Twitch.

    A proposito, aceito dicas de um recomeço no jogo menos sofrido. Eu comecei com "vagabundo" e não foi muito bacana. Saliento: Não sou pro player, sou noob mesmo.

    Pra finalizar, eu digo e repito: Elden Ring é uma experiência que todo gamer precisa jogar, até os que não gostam de jogos estilo Souls como eu.    … Expand

    Played every souls like and this is by far my new favorite, the open world is gorgeous looking, the story is very in depth and there is a bunch of lore and secrets to discover, new players who have never played a souls like will most likely have a hard time figuring things out but the game will give you a tutorial to help you with combat, controls and exploration. if you have never playedPlayed every souls like and this is by far my new favorite, the open world is gorgeous looking, the story is very in depth and there is a bunch of lore and secrets to discover, new players who have never played a souls like will most likely have a hard time figuring things out but the game will give you a tutorial to help you with combat, controls and exploration. if you have never played a souls like i still recommend playing and learning the game, don`t spent a few minutes and quit, spend atleast a good 5 hours so you can get used to it, must play… Expand

    One of the best Open-world games ever. Build customisation and NPC quest lines are the best in the series. This game manages to do so many things so well.

    An incredible achievement that brings Souls games into an open-world. Just an absolutely massive amount of content between new areas, optional bosses, optional dungeons, and exploration that could probably last years. In fact, the amount of content becomes quickly overwhelming. I also found myself preferring the level design of Dark Souls Remastered or Bloodborne over the open world.

    Extremely good game, but a bit to long, almost 200h it took me. However sekiro shadows die twice i enjoyed more. But in 2022 this most likely will win game of the year award.

    Just a great game. Not perfect maybe, bit it's got me going on for quite some hours now.

    World desing is so great; the RPG part is just like other souls, so it's good too, music and art are perfect and the graphics are ok. The only sin that this game have is repeat almost half of the bosses, and that maybe a lot of weapons use magic stats, so if you play dex or sthrength role, you'll probably lost grand part of the weapons.

    Don't pay attention to the bad users critics, the game is good, (is not perfect, but probably one of the best open world games), is definitely a must-play game and if someone says the opposite, it's just a hater.    … Expand

    First off, this is a great example of why single player experiences are not dead. This is in the top 3 games I have ever played, and the replayability is excellent. The only reason I am not giving it a 10 is because I do like playing with friends and the co-op is not exactly what I would hope for in an open world game.

    I loved the game, it's a delight if you're a soul player the only thing I see wrong is that it has many repeated bosses but getting the platinum was beautiful and the endings are GOD

    My main issues though are mainly with the targeting sometimes hitting targeting enemies sometimes miles behind the one I want to hit and the lag after pressing the button was pretty noticeable but not impacting gameplay too much (this is most likely due to me playing the PS4 version so kind of a mute point)
    Overall, really love the feel of the game and the messages you can find playing through the game are really fun to experience. Absolutely a must play.    … Expand

    This game is amazing, would have given 10 but the pvp just doesnt do it for me. It's very unbalanced and a 1 shot fest, parrying is also garbage. I prefer the high skill high reward of ds3.

    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.
