Deep, demanding gameplay, Robust character building, Gorgeous open world, Intriguing setting and lore
Messy mounted combat, Exploration feels too aimless
Elden Ring is not the perfect game that many Dark Souls fans probably hoped it would be. While adding open-world features to the beloved series formula results in a few cool moments, it also stretches the game in too many directions. If Dark Souls is a we...
Exploration and discovery that's driven entirely by the player, Stunning world design that blends a new open-world with the classic enclosed Soulsborne-style locations, Challenging combat that is both rewarding and thrilling, A visually stunning world tha
Still, at its core, a difficult game designed for a specific kind of person with little in the way of approachability options
Thrilling combat encounters, Enormous open areas that are fun to explore, Interesting world design and characters to encounter, Tons of weapons, skills and things to collect and experiment with
Repeated filler content, uneven pacing and some lazy boss battles/dungeons, Technical issues from a barebones PC port resulting in frequent stutters throughout the experience
