    Really does feel like a combination of the games FromSoft has been working on up to this point, and it really takes the best inspiration from them.

    Jogo excelente! Mesmo que vc não goste do estilo souls, dê uma chance para esse jogo. Eu já tinha me prometido não comprar mais jogos do estilo souls, após não gostar de Bloodborne, mas resolvi dar uma chance para Elden Ring. Gostei tanto que até platinei o jogo.

    Amazing game. The legacy dungeons have the best level design so far out of all fromsoft games. The bosses also have a much bigger moveset variety.

    There's nothing, absolutely nothing like Elden Ring. The Dark Souls series is its precursor, of course, but the size of the map, the atmosphere and the exploration are unparalelled.

    Whiners will whine. The only reason this game gets all this hate is because From Software games have become mainstream. More fans equals more haters, exactly like Metallica. If Metallica was much less
    There's nothing, absolutely nothing like Elden Ring. The Dark Souls series is its precursor, of course, but the size of the map, the atmosphere and the exploration are unparalelled.

    Whiners will whine. The only reason this game gets all this hate is because From Software games have become mainstream. More fans equals more haters, exactly like Metallica. If Metallica was much less popular, you wouldn't hear all that crap about Lars Ulrich.

    In all From Software games, there are bosses I can't beat, so I quit on them, simple as that. It never stopped me from adoring their games.

    Not perfect, but better than everything else on the market when it comes to fantasy settings. It's like playing the best Lord of the Rings game you could wish for.

    It's great plain and simple it's been made more digestible for new players, starting off initially it will be tough even but they great thing is the game doesn't force you to go a certain way it's a choose your own adventure so taking your time will be rewarded is a boss is too hard leave and go somewhere else until you're strong enough. The game is beautiful and huge and full of content.It's great plain and simple it's been made more digestible for new players, starting off initially it will be tough even but they great thing is the game doesn't force you to go a certain way it's a choose your own adventure so taking your time will be rewarded is a boss is too hard leave and go somewhere else until you're strong enough. The game is beautiful and huge and full of content. The only real bad thing is slightly boring dungeons and repeat bosses but those are almost always optional and serve as a way for you too level up easily. With age and hindsight the lowest I could give this games is possibly a 9 I've packed in 80 hours in this game and I'm still not even done with the main story and there are multiple endings as well Expand

    Game of the Year winner, the entire gaming community has come together to celebrate it. I think this alone should put the review bombing to rest. It is a beautifully crafted game that provides hundreds of hours of gameplay. Its not easy, its cryptic, its story is light to non-existant - its a soulsborne game...

I think this alone should put the review bombing to rest. It is a beautifully crafted game that provides hundreds of hours of gameplay. Its not easy, its cryptic, its story is light to non-existant - its a soulsborne game... This is not the RPG for you if you are looking for a deep story line with engrossing conversation, building relationships with npcs, etc. However, if you are looking for a deep challenge, the wonder of adventure/discovery, and fantastic mechanics this is a must play.

    I see so many reviews comparing this game to the likes of Skyrim and other RPGs, you cant think of it in that light. It more closely resembles an arcade game on steroids.

    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.
