    I have to say, this game is the game of the 100-year, dark souls + red dead 2 like my dreams, only problem is the optimization but, that is not a big problem, software team can handle in maximal 1 week, definitely wort the money!!!

    'ELDEN RING' is '2022 GAME OF THE YEAR Most awarded game'. so well made Brutal yet beautiful and cold The map of the game is huge and detailed, and the action and combat are the best among all games.

    This is Miyazaki's magnum opus. Without question. I went into this game with very high expectations, and the reality still managed to blow me away.

I went into this game with very high expectations, and the reality still managed to blow me away. I haven't played an open world game this content-rich, with this much depth, since either Skyrim or Witcher 3. The world is so vast, there's secrets around every corner. Every zone has multiple sub-zones that you don't even know are there until you stumble onto them. There's even MASSIVE subterranean zones underneath the land's between that you don't even know exist until you find them. There's no invisible walls or plot devices that block your exploration. If you see something that looks cool in the distance, you CAN go there and explore it whenever you want, as long as you can survive the trek to it. The world building at work here, thanks in large part to George R.R Martin's input, is unbelievable and EXTREMELY refreshing to see in a FromSoftware title.

    Elden Ring feels like a slap in the face to the current game-design dogma that is plaguing the consumer base, where developers rush out half-finished titles lacking in content, only to properly finish the game later with paid DLC. I have put over 80 hours into Elden Ring so far, and I still haven't seen the credits. Seriously, there hasn't been a game that's taken me this long to finish, thanks to how content-rich it is, in over a decade. Easily GOTY material, depending on how good GoW:Ragnarok is. One of the best gaming experiences I've ever had. If you like the souls games, you owe it to yourself to experience Elden Ring. Even if you've only dabbled a bit into them before, you owe yourself a chance to experience it.    … Expand

    Fix your game! Worked great at launch, but you update and change the meta enough and now this game is horrendous! This is part of the reason I stopped playing CoD. One week it's semi balanced, A bunch of babies show up complaining, and now it's an unbalanced mess.

    The Game looks very good, the mechanics is Dark Souls typical with some new features like the Horse or the ability to jump. The Open World is quite big (for my Taste way to big).

As example, a open World in a Fallout Game is absolutely great. For a Dark Sousish Game, i dont know if a huge World is needed.

    What was quite annoying to me is the fact that you need to craft a Medicin to be able to play with others. Why da Hell should this be a good feature? It would have been way better if it would have been a permanent Item. I can imagine especially for new Players, its going to get more than frustrating,    … Expand

    Absolute masterpiece. I have 60 hours in and I just hit the halfway point. The sheer vastness of this game is just insane. The only chance this game has of not winning is if God Of War comes out this year. Even then, it's going to take A LOT to top Elden Ring.

    From Software's MASTERPIECE. It all started with Demon Souls's level structure, then levels were jointed together and we got Dark Souls. Now we have multiple levels in a full open world map. EPIC. DEFINITELY A MUST PLAY.

    No graphics issue on ps5. Stop review bombing this game based on pc performance! Throughly enjoyed my 10+ hours PER DAY in the last three days. Honestly think this is game of the decade. Open world is full of interesting stuff. You JUST NEED TO LOOK FOR THEM!

The graphics are outdated, the story (if any) is lacking, the mechanics and animations are clunky, the open world feels deserted and the enemies placed in them are random and placed randomly, voice acting is bad...

    Just when I think I have finished exploring the entire game world, I come face to face with an entirely new area. But yeah I would have loved the story to be little more cryptic like the Dark Souls games and Bloodborne. Nevertheless, it's a new world and so much to do and so many optional bosses.

    fromsoft boss fights are hands down the best, but the open world system somehow destroys the beauty of it. when you fight a boss over leveled or over upgraded, there's no fun into it. unintended cheese. but i played it the way i want it so of course it's a great game!

    El LORE ya no me interesa, esa manera de contar o NO contar una historia, ¡¡¡que mierda!!!, 183hs y no se a que estoy jugando.
    Si había una forma de arruinar un RPG perfecto de mundo abierto Hidetaka Miyazaki la encontró, aplicando la misma "ecuación" que usa en juegos lineales pero que no encajan en un mundo abierto enorme.

    Los Miyazaki lover me dijeron: "Tenes que ir a foros/grupos para ver y compartir experiencias con otros usuarios y así entender la historia, cada uno aporta un poco" ¿¡¡¡WTF!!!?
    Última vez que le compro algo a FromSoftware.

    Compralo solo si te interesa meterte en el nicho de los soulslikers, si buscas una buena historia vas a pasar mas tiempo fuera del juego que dentro de el.

    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.
