Apr 29, 2022Неплохая игра. Но серия Дарк соулс понравилась больше из-за пвп
-
Apr 2, 2022About gameplay, lore and story it could be 10/10. BUT 25fps on PS5 ? Optimization is really bad anyway - that’s the only reason why I rate this game only as 9 points. Really good game.

Apr 3, 2022This is one of the best games ever i would totally recommend to soulsbourne players and people who have never picked up a souls game
-
Apr 2, 2022This is the first Souls game I’ve played. It’s about as perfect as a game could be. I don’t like that I have to look up where to find a bunch of stuff. It’s a game, I’m not here to write a doctoral thesis on Elden Ring ffs. Please for the love of god add quest tracking.

Apr 2, 2022Don't believe the poor reviews. Have played videogames for the last 20 years and in the last 10 this is the first game that has enchanted me so much that I feel like a child again. Does it have flaws? Yes, but it is a magical experience and a work of art deserving of a 10/10 score.
-
Apr 2, 2022Seriously one of the most entertaining and deep games i have ever played. Ive been a big fan of skyrim since its release and this games has definitely topped it for me. Highly recommended!
-
Apr 2, 2022This One of the best games I've played in along while !!!!!!!!!!! and prob one of the best souls games ever created from -fromsoft

Apr 3, 2022simplesmente um dos melhores jogos da minha vida, boss épicos, mapa colossal e denso cheio de conteúdo, mesmo com mais de 300 horas não consigo sair desse jogo mesmo depois de ter zerado 3 vezes.

Apr 4, 2022Best Game Ever mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
-
Apr 4, 2022This game is fantastic, after trying souls games many years ago, and give up after a few hours, i decided to try again on this one and i cannot regret After a few hours of dying, I finally got it. The exploration aspect and infinite paths, associated with unimaginable bosses make this game an unmissable experience for any game lover. I finished the game after 60 hours

Apr 4, 20225 reasons
Gameplay is wonderful.
The game is beautiful. No matter what direction you look in you're greeted with a heavenly sight.
There's a playstyle for everyone.
It's a tad easier in my opinion than other the rest of Fromsoft games so if you're put off by ultra hard games then this I promise you isn't that bad.
I promise you'll want to play this through more than once -

Apr 5, 2022Loved it! Got the Platinum and easily sank 150+ hours into the game. If you are a Fromsoftware fan, you will absolutely love this! The addition of Torrent and being able to attach whatever weapon skill you want to any weapon was a great addition!

Apr 6, 2022Easily the best game I've ever played 10/10, no bias, never played a dark souls before, only watched, and literally, the best game ever.
Open World, Fun, Hard, what's there not to love about this game? -

Apr 6, 2022This game is absolutely excellent. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS GAME. It is so well written, looks beautiful, and is such a breath of freshair with all the other cookie cutter open world **** being mass produced. The story is so good. I have over 200 hours so far and I still can't put it down!

Apr 7, 2022best rpg, and games, just because it seems to be the only product that could be call games since may years. because now games studio don't understand what is a games, and seems to don't try it before release.
fromsoftware is studio that make games from passionate to passionate. that why it is the best games since few years -
Apr 7, 2022JESUS CHRIST. Thank you for this game... My first FromSoftware game, will definetly be playing all the following ones. Just finished after 80 hours of gameplay and in a few weeks i'll start it all over and start exploring again. Thanks again

Apr 8, 2022Would be 10 but no Hideo kojima but story good and boss make me wanna cry I hate margrit
-
Apr 9, 2022Its much more beginner friendly than dark souls 3. The game world, which is open is just beautiful. You can go through this game in any order you want. The only downside is the optimization.
-
Apr 9, 2022Best game I've ever played, I read some bad reviews and de people who wrote it probably didn't even beat the first main boss. They say the game has no story while there are youtubers making 1 hour+ vídeos about the lore of the game. You should definetely play this game, the open world is amazing, the combat is amazing, everything about this game is amazing, I just love it so much
-
Apr 9, 2022I liked it a lot, it’s pretty difficult but that is all of my problems with the game. Personally I wish that there was an indicator at the top of the hud that said what you should be doing at the current time because I spent a lot of the game just the aimlessly wandering and killing the same Enemies over and over.
-
Apr 9, 2022The game is just outstanding there hasn’t been a game that I have played that I just want to keep playing, after I beat the game I just want to do another play through. The game play is amazing and just so smooth I mostly recommend this game to people that just loves video games and love a challenge
-
Apr 10, 2022
-
Apr 10, 2022I agree the optimisation still has work to be done.
It's absurd How anybody can call it a bland open world.The combat has so many new mechanisms compared to earlier souls games
Its was joy to explore the open world not knowing what could be around the next corner.
Saying there is no story just shows how conditioned people are to being spoon fed the story -
Apr 10, 2022Just an amazing experiencie, a fresh take on the Souls series. Game of the year for sure.
-
Apr 10, 2022Experiencia única, juego de 10 de 10 gameplay divertido y wow jefes impresionantes, juegazo soundtrack geniales y todo digno de un verdadero Souls

Apr 12, 2022Literally best open world game ever made in 2022. It's one of the most immersive not in term of realistic, but the superb design in the details, the world, the story and the mechanics. Fromsoft has leveraged their identity as soulborne game in this newest title Elden Ring, this is their milestone of achievement. Worth every penny.
-
Apr 12, 2022This game is giving me the same feeling when I first played Fallout New Vegas so it's an instant 10 in my books
-
Apr 14, 2022best game ever.., beautifull graphic, perfect gameplay, deep story and lore. very groundbreaking open world game. most of issues not happen on my pc
-
Apr 14, 2022This game is like the best parts of Dark Souls 3 balanced out and then put in a world just as expansive and dense with content as BOTW
-
Apr 20, 2022This is the peak of souls like games. So many different ways to go about overcoming the challenges it presents you. Every build feels viable.
-
Apr 21, 2022One of the best games not only due to the game-play but also the world surrounding it and the exploration possible.
-
Apr 22, 2022What a beautiful game, I've only spent 70 hours on this game and expect I'll spend much more. The graphics aren't the best but the art style far more than. Enthralling lore to find all throughout the world and some or the most epic boss fights I've ever played whilst gaming, I can't wait to find all the lore and other things I may have missed along the way!
-

-
Apr 22, 2022People saying the graphics are out dated on other worldly drugs and their reviews should not be taken seriously. They are just big mad because they can’t beat it. Fantastic game!
-
Apr 23, 2022Simply amazing. From the intriguing open world to the adapting combat this game will go down in history as one of the best ever made.
-
Apr 22, 2022Trama repetida y aburrida, mundo abierto abrumador y vacío (demasiado grande), fallas de optimización, enemigos repetitivos y bugs. Por todo lo demás esta bien.
-
Apr 24, 202290 hours in and not even finished. The scope of this game is insane. We'll be seeing "Elden Ring - likes" for the next good while

Apr 24, 2022Great feeling of exploration, the world is huge. Boss fights are amazing.
-
Apr 25, 2022one of the best games I ever played, amazing open world and combat and made me enjoy souls like games.
-
Apr 25, 2022This game is incredible, and truly shows us what a RPG should be, you explore as much or as little as you like. Its a vibrant beautiful and brutal world!! Amazing game 10/10 would recommend to any and all. whether you have played any From Software games before or not!!
-
Apr 25, 2022Masterpiece in making... game should be like eldenring ,more to game play than money ...

Apr 25, 2022لعبة رائعة لكنها مثل سابقاتها مع أعداء مختلفين، تصميم المراحل ممتاز، اوستات عادية، تكرار مقرف، لعبة جميلة لكن ليست الأفضل كما يزعم البعض

Apr 26, 2022Masterpiece - gameplay is smooth, story is confusing but exciting, enemies are tough but manageable. Overall 10/10
-
Apr 26, 2022A masterpiece.. not the best graphics and animations but the Design of the open World is the best i've ever seen
-
Apr 26, 2022Probably one of the best games ever made.... I won't give it a 10 out of 10 because of performance issues across platform and a lack of accessibility options(colorblind,etc....)
-
Apr 27, 2022When I first played it I got annoyed as it seemed too similar to previous games in the series. After over 300 hr of game time I can say that this is easily the best of FS and one of the best RPGs ever made.
-
Apr 27, 2022One of the best games ever made, easy. Might be the most fantastic world created on a videogame and such a mastery in everything it proposes to do. A truly milestone in the videogame industry. People will talk and discover secret things while playing this game for a really, really long time: months! years! This is huge! Just WOW!

Apr 28, 2022New to the “Souls” genre, but this game is an excellent way to join this style of gameplay. Reminds me of Zelda Breath of the Wild kinda. The “feel” anyway, the combat is brutal, but with summons and the ashes of war that you can add to weapons are awesome ways to help make it easier.
-
Apr 29, 2022Masterpiece, this game is better than Gex. Very fun, challenging and erotic experience

Jun 9, 2022An amazing expansion upon the Dark Souls formula. How is it possible for a game to have so much content with such high quality? From Software achieved the impossible. It's not a perfect game, but it definitely deserves a 10/10.

but
- couldnt beat the Final final boss.. gave up
- felt it had random quests.. couldnt have gotten as far as I did without weikis.guides
still loved it though -
May 22, 2022Hands down THE BEST souls game experience. I have started a couple of Fromsoftware games but quit all of them early-mid game. Elden Ring creates a world that can be as challenging or forgiving as you want it to be.

May 27, 2022Honestly best game I've played! The world is rich , the design of the enemies is unique and cool, THE VOICE ACTING IS INSANE, THE MUSIC/BOSS THEMES ARE RIDICULOUSLY GOOD. Game of the year!
-
May 27, 2022After playing it for over 250 hours I can safely say that it’s the best game I’ve ever played. It’s perfect. Elden Ring is Miyazaki‘s Magnum Opus.
-
May 27, 2022Playing it on a PS4, and I've had nearly zero performance issues. Sure, the graphics aren't as impressive as new generation hardware, but the game is so incredibly fun that it doesn't matter at all. This is what Elden Ring has going for it: it's just super fun. If you enjoy action RPGs, or dark fantasy settings, PLEASE, give this a try. It's a masterpiece.

LEVEL (Czech Republic)Jan 30, 2024Elden 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. [Issue#318]

Jun 2, 2023Elden 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.
-
Aug 11, 2022Elden 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.
