    What i don't really get about all these low ratings here is how someone can buy a soulslike and complain about it's soulslike-style. Elden Ring is a soulslike in an open world. And while this is its biggest strength it seems to turn out as its achilles heel as well.

The combat, although taken mostly from Dark Souls 3, feels great with the new ashes of war system, and the open world breathes new life into the fromsoft formula.

    Number of brain dead GoW fans (don't get me wrong, I'm not saying all GoW fans are brain-dead) who leave 1-3 star and say "they are a fan of this series" just to try to hide themselves is mind boggling. I at least hope ER players doesn't escalate this with a "counter-strike". If you want actual rewievs I recommend actual gamer channels who have no political trash in their channel.

    I feel this game is massively overrated. It looks like a 2012-2013 game in terms of graphics and world design. The world is big, but not as live and open as you thought should be. Lot of linear caves, and areas only accessible by 1 path, and sadly, that goes in favor of the game overall.

    Suffered for about 40 hours before I gave up on mindless wandering, repetitive bosses, and clunky, frustrating combat dynamics. Perhaps I needed to revise my build, or maybe try a different gameplay style but I decided it wasn't worth my time. Deleted and moving on. Happier for it.

    This game is not for everybody, but if you get trough the learning phase it will be one of the best gaming experiences you could have.

    Good game overall, but has a fatal flaw: bosses that are on crack, with a lot of fast attacks that deal huge damage, a speed that is way too fast for your characters base toolkit, in other words, you are playing DS3 while the bosses are playing Elden Ring, mixed with repetitive dungeons filled with repetitive bosses that just feel like they are there just to fill the world.

The first time playing it, it felt like exploring a unknown realm in a dream. One of those experiences that you wish you can erase and relive it.

    ademas de tener el adn souls, Elden ring nos ofrece muchos acertijos y verticalidad, puzzles opcionales muy originales como las torres a lo largo de las tierras intermedias, sin romper el ritmo del juego, la verticalidad en los anteriores juegos se hace prsente en las mazmorras grandes como el castillo velotormentoso o raya lucaria, a pesar de que el juego es horizontal.
    con respecto al arte pienso que es de sus puntos fuertes a comparacion de sus demas juegos y los demás. el haligtree de miquella, farum azula, te dan maravillas de paisajes en los que te cuentan una historia, ademas de que se aprecia de diferente forma con respecto a los cambios de tiempo que alternan entre dia y noche. ni siquiera se sienten vacios, y la posicion de los enemigos es perfecta, es como una jungla, no sabes que te va a caer desde las alturas o detras del arbusto.
    El volumen de las estructuras te hacen sentir abrumado.
    y la historia, siento que es el punto fuerte del juego, está escrito de tal manera que no deja tantos agujeros a nivel de cada personaje, ademas de entrelazarse entre ellos. me gusta mucho la mitologia original basandose en muchas mitologias, como la nordica que es la principal fuente de inspiracion, tambien vemos mucha de cristianismo, mitologia griega, y celta. y como faltar la inspiracion de berserk que en este juego, se hace mas presente que en los anteriores.

I think that this game is a good game, but it's just repetitive a lot of the time. When I bought this game I was expecting to have a massive world that I could explore and go anywhere that I want. The world is big, but you can not explore it easily, and many areas are restricted. In my opinion, I think being able to just go anywhere on the map easily would benefit this game, similar to Zelda. On a positive note, I do think that the gameplay and difficulty are perfect, despite how hard it is. I do think this game definitely has its moments, especially when you are fighting a boss. This game probably has the most variety in terms of enemies and biomes, but a lot of the biomes are just bland and ugly. Another complaint I have is that the weapon/armor system is horrible. There is just way too many weapons that it becomes incredibly overwhelming to choose a good one that fits you. If someone were to ask me if they should buy Elden Ring, I would tell them that it really depends on the type of games that you like to play.… Expand

So now, when all the other gamers were invited to the party and they experienced how badly designed these boss simulators really are, of course they are angry. They should be. Actually good stuff almost never receives metascore 96. That's unheard of. For people who have played open world games their entire life, elden ring is one of the emptiest and most boring open world games they have ever seen. Of course they say it's sht, because it is sht.

Alleine wie die Karte aufgebaut ist, ist genial gemacht. Man schaltet langsam immer mehr frei und fragt sich die ganze Zeit wie groß das Spiel sein kann. Das Spiel bietet viele gute Waffen von denen man die meisten gerne ausprobieren würde. Die Bosskämpfe gegen die Demi-Götter wurden extrem gut inszeniert. Wenn man sich die Lore durchließt erkennt man auch wie durchdacht diese ist. Das Spiel ist sogar einsteigerfreundlicher als die Vorgänger. Wer eine Herausforderung sucht, kann im 1 gegen 1 gegen Bosse kämpfen, wer keine sucht, kann die Beschwörungen nutzen. Dass man Waffen aus einer Kategorie zusammen verwenden kann, ist eine massive Verbesserung im Vergleich zu Dark Souls. Ich könnte noch vieles weites aufzählen, was das Spiel alles richtig macht, aber es macht fast alles richtig. Selten habe ich mir bei einem Spiel von solch großem Umfang dennoch gewünscht, dass es noch weiter geht. Ich hoffe einfach darauf, dass es neben Dlcs noch eine Fortsetzung geben wird.… Expand

And so it came to be that I bought Elden Ring, I have always wanted to play these games (souls) as their asthetics and atmosphere are of awesome levels but alas, I was never "gud" enough. But Elden Ring does what I thought could not be done, preserving those soulcrushing boss encounters, holding on to a general gameplaying that always asks "are you awake?" (else you pay for it instantly) and giving both selfhurting veterans and green privates like me a chance to experience this insane world of epic proportions. If a boss crushes you in a second, just walk in another direction and find strenght (and better weapons) and then return to crush him/her later!
    The open world structure of Elden Ring is truly well designed in a big array of ways, all from its core mechanic of classical soulsgame where you loose your mainresource with death which drives you forward to fullfilling your objects no matter how hard it may be. The world is also encouraging you to explore on your own, with your own eyes, instead of following a trail of glitter (no names mentioned). Rewarding exploration and hardship. One thing I truly love about the hardships of ER open world is that after numerous number of deaths and fails, you come out as this monster of a warrior, just traversing all of these enteties trying to kill you with ease, as the game has teached you (the hard way) how all of these works and fails. So in the end, even though everything is deadlly as hell, you can take it, because the game made you learn and evolve.

    The visual design is of the charts, it has been a long time since I got to behold such insanely great visuals/graphics, maybe not as resourceheavy as a cod-game, but top notch to the last fingertip.

The gratification comes from FINALLY beating a boss after it kicks your teeth in so many times. It's about giving that feeling of gratification. But you've gotta have a bit of a stubborn personality to get there. To me, this is the game I've been waiting on my whole life. It's like getting immersed in my favorite book (I like things like Malazan or WoT to get an idea). It's big, it doesn't tell you where to go, there's a ton of story to uncover, lore to learn, places to see, maps to create, and nothing is hand held.

    If you like that kind of thing, good luck, have fun, die a lot. If you don't, there's lots of games out there that you would enjoy instead that you should put your money towards.

I first thought this when I played some of the Elder Scrolls games, then most recently with Breath of the Wild, and now finally the genre is combined with one of my most beloved franchises, Dark Souls. We see this in it's most grandeur display with Elden Ring. This game has blown me away in every way. All of the greatest, honed combat from a decade of development shows up here in satisfying, beautiful gameplay. All of the crazy world and character design from Miyazaki and his team is still present, and takes lots of elements both from Bloodborne and the Souls games. This is without even mentioning all of the work that George R.R. Martin helped out with, story-wise. You can definitely see elements from A Song of Ice and Fire within many of the quests and stories intertwined in Elden Ring. Overall, the gameplay hooked me, the story held me, and the boss/world design knocked it out of the park. I hope Fromsoftware continues with IPs like this, with custom characters and free-to-roam worlds, because I truly believe they are a pioneer in this way. Great game.… Expand

    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.
