Elden Ring

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 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]

i never played any soulsgame. i hated these games. then elden ring came. i tried it. i was **** into this world i couldnt believe it. the way was freaking epic. i am now an elden lord. i am not the same anymore.

Um ótimo jogo de aventura coo mundo aberto muito bom mas a minha experiência não foi boa o jogo não me enganou então manda essa nota mas eu reconheço que é um ótimo jogo

Insane art direction, incredible sound design and phenomenal atmosphere. However, I hate how bosses and most enemies have crazy combos that never end and never give you a second to hit back. Also, I don't think a simple encounter in the wilds should feel as difficult as an endgame boss from earlier Souls games. I don't like the open-world structure. Most of your time is spent riding your horse and wasting time trying to find something to do that doesn't involve just killing everything you see. Quests are impossible to follow or complete without using the wiki. If you don't, you will either completely miss the next objective or randomly stumble on the NPC like 50 hours later and now they're dead. Another thing. In previous Souls games, items and gear were found naturally through exploring all nooks and crannies. There doesn't seem to be as much stuff in the environment to find this time around, I'm never rewarded for going out of my way to explore, unless you count rewards from completing dungeons... which, most of the time, end up useless to you because of stats requirements. This creates a frustrating gameplay loop where you work your butt off to clear a difficult boss only to get a reward you won't even use. This happens over and over again unless you use a wiki to plan out your build and route but that defeats the whole point of exploration. Finally, I think the game takes too long to beat. I prefer the previous Souls games that are more focused and intentional. Elden Ring feels bloated.

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.

le genre de jeux qui sont bien que a la condition que tu te renseigne sur youtube tellement le gameplay est pas intuitif et le tuto incomplet. bref c'est pas nul c'est just insupportable pour un triple AAA
