    I see on the first few days of launch that the user reviews are pretty low. I know that the game has has a rough launch on PC. But aside from that, i predicted this:

    There was a huge hype train for this game. A big tornado of hype created by the Souls community, Youtubers looking for views and gaming media talking about this game like it was the 2nd coming of Jesus himself. This Hype    I see on the first few days of launch that the user reviews are pretty low. I know that the game has has a rough launch on PC. But aside from that, i predicted this:

    There was a huge hype train for this game. A big tornado of hype created by the Souls community, Youtubers looking for views and gaming media talking about this game like it was the 2nd coming of Jesus himself. This Hype tornado sucked in a bunch of players who never played a souls game in their lives and because of that, many of these people were expecting a Next Gen experience with Graphics and gameplay akin to what God Of War 2 will look like.

    That's what happens when the hype train gets carried away. It happened with CyberPunk and it happened with Elden Ring. But the major difference is, Cyberpunk was the developers fault, and Elden Ring was the fault of the people who didnt do more research on what kind of game they were really getting into

    I have a handful of friends who I've tried convincing to play a Dark Souls game for the last 10 years and they wouldn't. And now all of a sudden they all wanna play Elden Ring.

    Well, sorry to the folks who were thinking they were about to get a naughty dog mixed with Elder Scrolls by Bethesda experience. You get exactly what we fans over the last 10 years have been asking for. A LARGER more fulfilled vision of the Dark Souls Universe and it is absolutely stunning and beautiful.

    If you haven't played a FromSoftware Souls-Like game before, ask yourself this:

    "Am i ready to play a game that doesn't hold my hand, challenges me and will give me no choice but to google stuff a bunch through my playthrough? Am i ready for a type of game I've never played before, one that rewards patience and persistence but always gives me a way to solve problems presented?"

    This is a nerds game. And if you wanna be a gaming nerd like the rest of us, you're more than welcome to join us. If you're new and dont know where to start, check out VaatiVidya on Youtube. He's everyones go-to for Youtubers who cover FromSoftware content.

    For the rest of you though, God of War 2 and Starfield come out later this year, just hold on until then.

    Elden Ring is a perfect accumulation of all of FromSoftwares 6 previous Souls and Souls-Like games.
    They took the formula and perfected it. I'm 20 hours in and i feel like i just started getting into the thick of it. This is a must play for anyone up to the challenge/know what there getting into. Im playing on PS5, and its been running great    … Expand

    Game is needlessly hard with an expectation that you have played all their other titles. Additionally story is nearly non existent with a path system that means to make little sense. You can make the game playable by hacking around their anticheat software though so it's not entirely terrible.

    There has been a ton of QOL changes and new additions which makes the game better and arguably easier than previous titles. HOWEVER, there is still plenty of amazing, challenging, and fun bosses all over. I don't know the exact number but I'm already about 60 bosses in and while some are basic bosses a lot are really cool.

    I've been playing on a midtier PC that I bought last Black Friday and I haven't had any real issues with the game frame rate or lag. I am only playing on medium settings though because I don't want to nuke my pc since it's really nothing special lol

    While the majority of the game isn't really too difficult there are some bosses that may take a while to beat.

    I'm giving this a 10 simply because I cannot remember the last time I played a game anywhere near this good. I can't say it's a perfect game since I haven't 100% it yet but it truly is amazing.    … Expand

    If you're a FromSoft fan this game is perfect. But if you're not familiar with their style maybe skip this. These games are hard, have lore/story that requires lots of paying attention and doing your own investigating. This game took the best things from Sekiro, Bloodborne and Dark Souls and put them all into one open world game. Easily my favorite game by From.

    If you liked Demon Souls then this game is for you, but for me personally its a beautiful game but the combat is clunky with limited attack options, the controls are very tank like and it just makes the game a slog more than anything I could enjoy.

Also its a painful experience some of you I know enjoy a game that is difficult but some of us just want to plug in for a couple hours occasionally and enjoy ourselves this game is another one of those were if you want to enjoy the game you better grind things out for a month leveling up your character so that every encounter does not end immediately in your death. I know it sounds like I am bashing the game but I am not I do enjoy it but it just sucks because this could have been no very much better with just a few tweaks. I keep hearing comparisons to Breath of the wild but what that game did right this game does wrong. Maybe some day it will happen because if they had breath of the wild controls with this beautiful looking game it sure would be a fun game.… Expand

    Elden Ring is without a doubt one of the greatest games of all time. Do not listen to the pathetic basement dwellers that have nothing better to do than review bomb a game. The graphics look fantastic and it performs great. I'm 49 hrs in and have only experienced a few very minor stutters. Do yourself a favor and buy this today.Mostly

    Filled with technical issues and glitches .

    Critics praised this game to a hypocrite level , nobody mentioned most of the negative points .

    As an older player (the big 50) who has put countless hours into Demon Souls, Darks Souls Remastered and Dark Souls 3 and who considers Dark Souls 3 to be my favourite game of all time I have to say after about 20 hours into Elden Ring that this game is highly likely to claim the throne from Dark Souls 3. I appreciate if you are not into the Souls series as much as me you may want to comeAs an older player (the big 50) who has put countless hours into Demon Souls, Darks Souls Remastered and Dark Souls 3 and who considers Dark Souls 3 to be my favourite game of all time I have to say after about 20 hours into Elden Ring that this game is highly likely to claim the throne from Dark Souls 3. I appreciate if you are not into the Souls series as much as me you may want to come on here and give it a negative review especially if you are new to having a game not hold your hand and funnel you down a map full of quests in a logical order. This game expects you to be brave, explore, die (many times) and learn. It is not a game for some but, unlike being burnt by professional reviewers in the past for games such as Cyberpunk I can confirm they are spot on with their reviews for Elden Ring. This is a game changer for the Souls series and my definite GOTY unless I get blindsided by something else truly amazing though I highly doubt that is likely to happen. Anyway, a perfect 10 from me and just ignore the haters who probably played for a few hours and dismissed the game because the systems are purposely not as intuitive as mainstream games and they got their asses beaten before rage quitting. The only negatives are perhaps the frame rate issues I experienced on PC but on the console, I'm very happy with it and I'm sure there will still be patches there in time. Certainly no major bugs like other open world games on release.... I think FromSoftware have released an amazing well polished product that I'm sure will only get better with time... other developers should take note!… Expand

    This isn’t just the best Souls game ever. It’s the best game ever made period! For those that had been scared off by FromSoftwares previous offerings, this game is for you as it’s easily the most approachable Souls game ever as it offers numerous save points and it allows you to play as you wish.

    At about 25 hours poured into this game I can honestly say From software has done it again. This game is incredibly breathtaking while still being the most challenging game to date. Understandably some times the loot for doing a stress enduring task feels lack luster, the real reward is the accomplishment of success.

    Absolutely fantastic game. Immeasurably satisfying and complex. A new iteration on an existing genre.
    Many people giving bad reviews because it's an intensely challenging game.
    As far as technical issues, I've experienced some minor pop in, and that is all.

    A phenomenal game that truly shows how far FromSoftware had come as a developer. However, if you don't love the previous FromSoftware titles, you probably won't enjoy this game, as it handles itself differently then a lot of other games in the mainstream. Although, if you have wanted to try a FromSoftware game, then this is a good place to start!

    Bottom line: the game is overhyped. I have been playing From Soft games since Kings Field 1.

I have been playing From Soft games since Kings Field 1.

    Design: This is more of the same, and absolutely just dark souls in an open world. It is refreshing to see a game without a bunch of icon chasing and relies on player exploration. One caveat and problem here is that the payoff when clearing out extremely tough areas is nonexistent, often times rewarding you with mediocre items, this is the same for slightly hidden items, they are just mediocre save for a few instances. The sense of exploration created by their design choices are great, what you get for exploring isn't, but still, it's a fun challenge.

    It works from a design standpoint, but as a fan I'm tired of being sold the same decade old game engine ALONG with re used enemy animations, assets, and move sets. The armors, weapons, all of it are literal reskins they have already used across 4 games. The least from soft could do is update the archaic UI.

    Technical: The game runs poorly on PS5, there new patch 1.002.001 actually made the game WORSE. with a shorter draw distance and more pop in, but the framerate is still as bad as before, and now the game looks and runs worse.

    Bottom Line: this game as is technically, is not what the mainstream outlets are saying. It's a technically flawed dark souls game set in an open world. If the technical issues were actually fixed on this game reusing so much content from old games, I'd say it's a solid 8. Just don't go in buying the nonsense about a masterpiece and accessibility to all. It's a lie.    … Expand

    I've played games that are huge open worlds but the actual playable area is small and you get nothing for exploring except nice views. Elden Ring gives you the nice view and has rewards to go with it. I love that you can always across caves or a bandit camps with plenty of loot. The game is harsh but also rewarding!
    This is definitely a buy from me! Except if you're someone who prefers games that get to the point from the start and are mission focused. This game can be vague and you need to put in the grind to get ahead. This is the open in open world.    … Expand

    There's nothing really new here. It's the same game in a new game world. There's no advancement in the AI that really matters to the game. It's a lifeless world, where there is only combat. The graphics are not up to scratch. Unless you're someone who plays Soulsborne games, then you probably wont like this one either.

    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.
