    Almost flawless masterpiece, easy GOTY with some of the best mechanics and visuals of any game to date. Not only does it masterfully use the souls style gameplay, it also innovates beautifully upon it.
    To anyone willing to "git gud" and use their rage and pain as a fuel for pushing through this game, I greatly recommend.
    Also, I can assure you that 90% of the 0 rates are skill issues.

    I like the setting and the atmosphere of this game. The new combat style, and being held by the Deathbed Companion.

Elden Ring é simplesmente incrível, principalmente se você adora os outros jogos da FromSoftware, ele junta tudo do bom e do melhor das outras franquias e junta em uma coisa só, com um mapa enorme, cheio de áreas para explorar e segredos que fazem sua cabeça explodir. As lutas são incríveis e a música é simplesmente maravilhosa, o design dos monstros é extraordinário, encontrar áreas secretas e no fim um chefão pronto pra te destruir é incrível. Masterpiece Expand

    FRAME RATE DROPS AND GRAPHICS AREN'T AS IMPORTANT AS THE GAMEPLAY. This game is amazing. The story, the music, the art style, the gameplay itself is all absolutely amazing. If you are debating on getting this game and love other Fromsoftware games: GET THIS GAME!

    It's incredibly fun, has good stealth, lots to do, great co-op and A LOT of fun. Seriously, it's the best game I've played in years.

    Is it fun? Yes. Is it in a playable state? Kinda. Should you wait until the patch that fixes the stuttering and FPS issues comes out to buy it? Yes.

    So far Good but need improvements and better optimization .

    Un gran juego, primero juego de este tipo y me está gustando mucho, valieron la pena los 60$
    Pero estaría bueno que ponga el modo de priorizar los fps aunque sea en Xbox one x, si la xss tiene ese modo yo creo que la one x si puede tenerlo pero lo demás está muy bien Un juego muy difícil pero no imposible

    Played on Xbox one S and there is some fps drops and the graphics aren’t cutting edge.

How detailed was BOTW, still one of the best games. That being said I don’t wanna continue playing the game until they fix the input lag. There’s no reason for it to be a half second delay and the excuse that the run button is the same as the roll button is completely stupid bc it was the same way in the OG dark souls. Fix that and fps and no complaints, it would be one of the best games ever. Fixed input lag by messing with TV and Cbox settings and can confirm it’s one of the best open world games out there.

    The Xbox One version is just as great as Xbox series version which is the best version of Elden Ring and that Xbox has VRR which makes Elden Ring at most max fps, unlike playstation version. Xbox version has better resolution and better framerate of Elden Ring. VRR does so great! Love the bosses in Elden Ring

    If you’re a fan of high fantasy, open world rpgs and the soulsbourne genre, then this is the game of your dreams. The world & character design is amazing. The scale of the world, the density, the verticality are incredible. There’s nothing else like it. Ignore the trolls reviews binging this game, it’s a masterpiece.

    This game is going to be the best game of this year, I strongly recommend playing it on Xbox Series X, the only platform where it does not give problems with lag or fps, from software did it again but this time better than ever, it brought together the best of all the video games they have released to date in one, with a beautiful open world as well.

    Talvez o melhor jogo da Fromsoftware, um excelente rpg de mundo aberto e cheio de segredos, dependendo do seu jeito de jogar vai consumir mais de 100 horas do seu tempo apenas na campanha principal, seus problemas são apenas técnicos no quesito de otimização para os consolos, mas sem duvidas é um jogo lindo de se vê.

    Another reviewer giving this game just a "7" got me thinking. This may be a game that I play for hundreds of hours. And that doesn't mean playing the game over and over. The game is that big. And there are so many playstyles you can play with. And there's so many playstyles you have to learn to guard against. Even the areas that are not full of enemies are still full of life.

It's not hard for the sake of being hard. It's hard to remind you where your character sits in the lore. It's hard until you learn to play it how it needs to be played.

Objectives would’ve been nice but I guess you can look at that half glass empty or full as to why they don’t have one in the game, but I’m enjoying my time trying to figure it out on my own. I like to read the guides on how tos and what-not online when I’m free and I find I’m more excited to pick it up again decide to work up towards whatever I was reading into. It sounds like I’m studying for an exam but it’s really not that hard to read a few things about the game online on how to do things and applying it to your play through to make it more enjoyable. People will say they don’t want to spend all this time trying to figure the game out but would scroll through Instagram for hours. Accepting death is therapeutic in its own right. Played games all my life and this game humbled me in that regard. Not recommended for people who play games to be better than their real life counterpart.

If you're saving o toward a series X already, then pick this up if you're a fan of Dark Souls, or Breath of the Wild. If you're on a budget, then know that it will play just fine. It's no pokemon scarlet.

    If you require a 60fps experience, then you should wait til you make the move

    Elden Ring war ein Meilenstein der Spielegeschichte. Einfach hervorragend. Auf wenn der Epos grafiklich besser hätte aussehen können.
