    The game is just absolutely incredible to play and look at! You can go anywhere at virtually anytime if you know what you are doing. The online combat is way better than the previous from soft games because of their new mechanics to power-stance and even jump. The game turned alot of people away just because of its skill gap but you just need to not press the buttons randomly as inThe game is just absolutely incredible to play and look at!

The game turned alot of people away just because of its skill gap but you just need to not press the buttons randomly as in sometimes you cant just spam R1 to victory sometimes you gotta time your attacks and not follow through with your combos because well he's gonna hit you in your face. Overall great experience over 700 hours in 6 different saves and i can tell you worth the 60$ Expand

    Unimpressed with visuals and gameplay. Definitely not my style of game. Bosses looked cool and are the only thing that bumps it up to a 2.

    As a souls veteran, i think its the second perfect souls game, the bosses are too great, i give it a 10/10 no hesitation

    I can't really fathom all these 10/10 scores, i feel like you all played a different game. Like sure the bosses are fun, sure there are some cool loot in this game. Here is the thing though, recycling. Too much and and it's boring, too little and you have a 20 year project. Personally i felt it was too much, same boss in some random dungeon like 3 times, didn't feel rewarding in the least.I can't really fathom all these 10/10 scores, i feel like you all played a different game. Like sure the bosses are fun, sure there are some cool loot in this game. Here is the thing though, recycling. Too much and and it's boring, too little and you have a 20 year project. Personally i felt it was too much, same boss in some random dungeon like 3 times, didn't feel rewarding in the least.

    Main issue is the balancing, you could easily just balance the weapons so that there isn't such big gaps. First playthrough i died on average 60-90 times per boss, because i like short duel-wielding weapons, makes me feel cool. I had no idea that here you cant do that because the bosses are scaled to handle op magic casting sh*t, which took me a long ass time to figure out because nobody knew anything yet. Playthrough number 2 3 4, im just cruising through the bosses like it's nothing. is it because i "got gud"? No, it's because i found op **** and scaled hp, because scaling anything else is almost useless. The best strat is getting a good weapon and just getting enough stats to cover the weapons needs and then only level vitality.

    I leveled from 20-40 in dex just to test this theory on a boss, i went from 350 per hit to 409, rather useless if you ask me. So my issue isn't that it's "too hard" or "too easy", it's that without knowledge it's too hard, and with knowledge it's so boringly easy that it's hard to concentrate. A lot of people take pride in this difference and say "it's because i explored so well" "i got good", when that's not the case.

    Prime example is if you start samurai: basically easy mode, if you go bandit: hard mode. There has never been this much difference between classes at the start. You could always "out-skill" the boss with well timed doges in ds3 but here that is less of a factor and your starting gear matters more, which i think is a huge issue.

    The only thing here is the awesome bosses that carry the whole game, some cool moments at the end after boring, tiresome, and repetitive gameplay, which to be honest made them feel more grand, so i'll give them that.

    But it's not a masterpiece, not in the slightest. It's too repetitive, very bland scaling system that makes no sense, poorly scaled armor, and an overvalue of the vitality stat. If these where fixed ye then i would agree it's a masterpiece.

    This game seemed fun, however, it is so disgustingly hard that it is unplayable. Every attempt to find a solution to the diffuclty is met with "gIT GuD nOoB"

    The game is very repetitive, all bosses look the same, i played all the previous souls game, it should be titled as a souls like game because its a souls game

    I don't really like this game, the graphics do not look too great and the bosses are insanely hard, I think the story is good and everything but it is not worth GOTY in my opinion, stray would be a better option

    Everything feels the same like the old souls but with open world
    Didn’t feel the story have much to tell and because the open world for sometimes i forgot what where and when i basically need to do
    This game is exhausting and 5-6 hours in the game are really enough for me I loved the demon souls remake and dark souls 3 and im an hard fan of bloodborne Nothing more to say i wish them luck

    Bloated and recycled. The combat system tricks you into thinking that it is deep, but in fact it is just really shallow with few viable weapons and ashes of war.

    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.
