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.

My first dive into the Souls games. It's an amazing experience but unless you use a guide I can imagine how difficult it would be to find your way around in a timely manner.

10/10 on first playthrough but after NG+5 on multiple characters and platinum on two accounts, it's an 8/10. Not because I'm tired of the game and know every enemy and secret, but because the game genuinely just has terrible replay value. Nothing beats seeing Limgrave for the first time, but my God everything past that is just copy pasted everything but in different colors. Same enemies, same items, same bosses

Elden Ring is a superlative title, one of those works capable of becoming an event and becoming engraved in the collective imagination. It achieves this by remaining faithful to its formula and exporting its identity to the concept of the open world, achieving its own personal approach, resulting in a world that is visually stunning, and that works with overwhelming precision in terms of mechanics. An excellent videogame that also maintains the concreteness of its proposal.

Elden Ring packs its intricately crafted world - a world which should be used as a reference point for open-world design moving forward - with more impressive boss fights and secrets than you can shake a giant greatsword at. Although its punishing combat system may not be to everyone’s taste, it is an essential experience both for FromSoftware newcomers and seasoned veterans alike.

Elden Ring is a crowning achievement of over a decade of Miyazaki’s and FromSoftware’s work, and an amazing example of how to find a whole new level of fun in a well-known and somewhat worn-out formula. The open world turned out to be a perfect fit for the genre and you can still tell this masterpiece was created by the famous Japanese studio. I honestly haven’t been so excited about a game since the first Dark Souls.

Elden Ring feels like the natural evolution of a video game series that continues to reinvent itself after more than 13 years of its birth. FromSoftware is simply the best at what they do. While there are some technical issues and repetitive structures and creatures, Elden Ring is a cruelly wonderful piece of work and one of the best adventure games of recent years.

The years of waiting were worth it, Elden Ring is brilliant. It offers a huge amount of content, a beautiful world and addictive gameplay. But the series does start to feel a little bit stale.

Elden Ring needed to be fresh and bold, and it succeeds, putting you in charge of your own adventure. However the open world has some uneven terrain. [Issue#12, p.80]

It’s good but doesn’t really deserve the high scores people are giving it. There’s a lot of copy and paste in the game. Both from a level point of view and bosses. Making the same boss a different colour isn’t a new boss. You fight the same ones over and over again. It’s just lazy

Tried getting into Elden Ring a few times, but it just doesn’t click for me. Combat feels slow and clunky, dodging isn’t responsive, and enemy animations are hard to read. Coming from Lies of P, Lords of the Fallen, and Wuchang, this felt like a downgrade in terms of gameplay feel and polish.
The world looks big but felt empty and aimless early on. I understand why people love it, but it’s not for me — at least not yet. Might try again later and update my thoughts if it clicks.
