    I didn't think they could outdo Dark Souls 3 & that it had all been done in the other games. And then there was Elden Ring. Amazing refresh, tons of cool new additions, rewarding for noobs and Souls veterans alike. Never coulda pictured a BOTW-style open world until now. A MUST.

    This game will be played/replayed for decades. An absolutely stellar experience that shouldn't be missed if you love exquisite, immersive gameplay and next-level art direction. And as far as open worlds go: From has humiliated Ubisoft and usurped Rockstar.

    não tem nada igual a experiencia de mundo aberto que esse jogo proporciona, estou com 90 horas e a sensação de descoberta ainda é presente e o choque com os cenarios e combate é inovador sempre

    This is one of the most epic games I have ever played. I like it a lot. Bosses are very enjoyable and hard. Perfect game for me. You should try it.

    Fantastic open world game. Plenty to do. Typical from soft challenge with plenty to master. Many ways to approach the game depending on play style with the ability to adapt and reset as you progress. Lots to try out building on the soulsborne formula. Graphics are decent but not up to bluepoint standard for dark souls remake.

    Elden Ring has some shortcomings with its (legacy) controls and perhaps some people will not like the dialogue (or lack thereof), plus multiplayer is very limited compared to ESO or Final Fantasy, but this game is an amazing first open-world effort from From Software. Very worth your money, ESPECIALLY in a gaming market full of boring, uninnovative titles and consolidated market power.

    Elden Ring is the best game of this year so far no doubt. The Gameplay is so good! The freedom of open world is astonishing asis the world.

    Edit: I finished it. Took me like 90 hours but it was totally worth it. Made all 3 endings and got the platinum trophy om ps5. Game is astonishing. I keep to everything I wrote above. I highly recommend playing it.    … Expand

    Las nuevas mecánicas cómo el salto y el combate a caballo (que si bien ya existían desde hace mucho tiempo en los videojuegos, mas elden ring los utiliza de modo excepcional) funcionan fe forma increíble, y abren un gran abanico de posibilidades tanto a la movilidad cómo a la exploración o al combate, ya que están muy bien aprovechadas. Sin ir mas allá, solo las magias, cosa que ya existía en todos los juegos de Dark Souls, aquí se sienten totalmente distintas. Son ágiles y útiles y jugar cómo mago realmente genera una sensación satisfactoria, no porque vuelva el juego fácil, sino porque realmente te sientes un mago en un reino de fantasía.
    Y hablando de la dificultad. Mucho se habló de que iba a ser un juego más fácil, con mas ayudas, etc... Bueno, Gilip*lleces. Es igual de dificil o más que cualquier otro juego de From. Las cinemáticas son increíblemente bellas y los bosses tiene un diseño precioso, cuidado, único y memorable, así cómo su propio moveset, que cuenta con las mismas cualidades.    … Expand

    Horizon: Forbidden Purchase fans are here crying that their cookie cutter open world game isn't as loved as something that is probably twice its size and three times more exciting. Voting 10 both because of my personal experience and because the review bombers can suck on a big toe.

    Probably the best souls game only gripe and it’s a minor one is the crafting system. Feels like it lessened the rewards but as my two favorite games are BotW and Dark Souls, this game feels like a personal love letter to me (even though it feels like a letter to Tolkien, Berserk, and BotW itself). In short, if you like souls series you’ll love this.

    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.
