Otro punto negativo son las quest secundarias, en estas si hubiera hecho falta algún tipo de indicador o un guiño del personaje de donde encontrarlo la próxima vez o de que hacer, por que literal es imposible completarlas sin mirar una guía, lo cual le quita al juego ese extra de andar a ciegas y lo convierte en algo monótono el tener q ver una guía, volver al juego ir a ese punto x tener un dialogo, volver a la guía, ver el siguiente paso, volver al juego, hacerlo..... arruina la experiencia. Fuera de eso es un excelente juego y la realidad por ahora es que la dificultad está presente al inicio, una vez alcanzado el nivel 60 con tu arma favorita en +17 algún stat de fuerza o destreza en 40 y unas cenizas de invocación en +6 la dificultad baja al 50%. Por ejemplo arranque el juego como es esperado y en lugar de ir a la segunda y tercera zona, me fui para la cuarta el desafío era alto pero la fue peleando y lo completo hasta donde se podía, y luego al ir a las zonas que en realidad eran la 2 y 3, me la estoy pasando matando a enemigos poderosos de 4 golpes .para resumir tiene una duración monstruosa ya que explorando al 100% y jugando sin guías a la primera recurrendo luego a ellas para sacar el 100 de lo que ofrece cada una de las zonas, con quest incluidas, llevo unas 60 hs y calculo que recién un 50% del juego, y aun sigo enganchado cosa que no me paso con otro mundo abierto… Expand

    Having played Demon Souls, Bloodborne, and Sekiro, this isn't my first rodeo with FromSoftware and I'm really digging the NOT HOLDING YOUR HAND APPROACH open world aspect to a souls like game.

The UI takes some getting used to but is NOT the garbage that has spewed out of the mouths of prominent developers of other game franchises. (Ubisoft and Guerilla could definitely learn something from this) Story wise it's minimalistic but well done and unique. My medieval fantasy cup of tea. Control wise it's really a matter of understanding the mechanics. If you're not used to souls like mechanics the controls are going to seem poor to you. The graphics are top notch particularly on quality mode. Performance wise...I'm really dissatisfied with it on my Series X. My hope is that FromSoftware steps up to the plate to remedy this. Otherwise this game would be a 10 for me.… Expand

    Honestly the game is looking pretty lame on Xbox series x ---hopefully they tap into the power of the xbox. Game wise its early but being a souls borne fan this game feels different then say dark souls 3. Not sure but so far not too great.

    Lack of content. FROMSOFTWARE has managed to "Call of Duty" -ify dark souls. It's rinse and repeat. Take out the open world and you have dark souls. Open world fails in a game that was originally designed to be a linear gameplay. I wish they took notes from Breath Of The Wild and saw what did not work.

The world and aesthetic is beautiful and I find myself frequently getting sidetracked by some new dungeon or a unique town or area that just makes me want to explore it all. The combat is as fluent as ever, FromSoft has perfected their style and it's as fun as it has ever been. I've seen people talk about how bad the graphics are or how many issues they've discovered. The graphics may be somewhat dated, but it doesn't take away from how much I enjoyed the game. The only issue I've come across was when I was trying to load into a friend's world to help them with a boss, but when I loaded I received the "enemy felled" message and was sent back to my world. The issue was quickly resolved though, but was still annoying at the time. The story is vague, like many other FromSoft games, but there is just so much more in just item descriptions alone that interested me. I haven't beaten every boss yet, but I have dumped 60 hours into the game and overcome some of the more challenging enemies in the game. The fights are tough, but always fair. I haven't encountered a boss that was that I genuinely didn't enjoy fighting. My only issue are the sidequests. Sometimes they're hard to keep track of and some of the npcs would move to a location that just seemed random until the added context later in the quest, . Eventually it made sense, but it didn't make it any less tedious trying to find where they were in the massive world. I know FromSoft likes to be minimalistic with stuff like that, but some kind of log to just keep track of what quest I had started would have been appreciated. Overall, the game isn't the most graphically advanced and definitely has some issues, but I've been enjoying the game so much despite the few issues I did run into. The world is aesthetically beautiful and there are endless possibilities with exploration still left. I can't wait to fill out the rest of my map and maybe find some secret areas and fell more enemies.… Expand

    I can't rate this less than 7 because there's clearly a quality game here, but the impenetrable design and frustrating experience makes this a pretty miserable experience. After 20 hours in Limgrave and increasingly resorting to online guides to find a way to progress, I've had enough.

    This game is so good. I am amazed that people give it a low score because it is hard. It is suppose to be hard. If you want easy, go play Zelda. From Software continues to make the best games I have ever played. Every other game I play, I compare it to From Softwares games, and they all disappoint compared to Miyazaki's genius. Also, so many boss fights, which is a big plus.

    Despite some annoying performance issues, Elden Ring is a masterpiece. The combat, enemy variety, exploration, music, and open world are top notch. I’ve been playing it daily across all platforms alongside other games all month, and look forward to doing that all year as I try new builds, help friends, and try to do everything I want in this triumph of a video game.

    Elden Ring rewards your curiosity in many ways, be it items, runes or a pathway to another area, but mostly it’s a story to tell your friends when you are sharing tales around the bonfire. It does not force feed tutorials down your throat, but instead it leans far the opposite way by not telling you much at all and lets you explore and find things out on your own. There is no true quest log, no points of interest on a map or no arrows pointing you in the right direction, so there is a good chance you’ll miss some of the best caves and areas of the game. Because of all of this, Elden Ring is forcing me to find all of that out on my own and it is one of the most rewarding games I have ever played. I will continue to explore the Land Between for many hours to come. I’m just not in a hurry.

    Elden Ring manages to draw the player into a fascinating world for many hours, with refined gameplay that fits perfectly with the freedom granted to the player. A sumptuous but imperfect work, which fails to completely overcome some of the historical flaws of Hidetaka Miyazaki's productions. Flaws that, however, can't diminish the scope of a masterpiece destined to leave an indelible mark on the videogame world and to set new standards for the souls-like and open-world genres.
