Now that the dust has settled, how would you rate elden ring...

who is that and how much did he spend on those anime figurines?

8/10 id say, higher with some more balancing. also the game would be better if the ice area didnt exist.

lmao that fucking mouth and shoulder width

kill me

Open world was good for a first playthrough but...
Let's be real for a second. After your first playthrough, you plan out your build for subsequent runs.
In any other Souls game, much of the content is presented in a linear fashion and you can't bypass content as you pursue a weapon or spell or whatever.
Elden Ring lets you bypass anything and everything on your way to a build. Now that I know what to do, it's far too easy to get a +5 somber weapon without killing ANYTHING, then you can head to Caelid and kill the bridge dragon, erdtree guardian, and the giant dragon for like 230,000 souls. At that point, the entire rest of the game is a joke, regardless of build.

His name is JAMES

The open world element wasn't well utilized. Maybe in a sequel or something they'll do a better job but the game's entire balance is off because you can just fuck off to do something else for a while when you come up against a wall. Early game enemies all get bodied by guard counters and late game enemies hit way too fucking hard and have too much health.

Your retarded. Gl

9/10

Honestly their best game since Bloodborne.

BUT THIS DRAGON HAS TWO HEADS!!!

who is this seaman demon

I’m ain’t gay bruh but those lips got me throbbing lowkey. I bet she sucks dick like a pro.

youtu.be/8BlpRBo5QiY

nobody cares except retards like you lmao

I was sick of dragons the first time I fought one. That double nigger with the frost shit. This is like number fucking seven, and I've run away from more than I can count. Yeah, this one plays a little different, I'll admit that, he's not bad, but all that buildup only for me to "oh no, not this shit again", I mean... That's not what they were going for.

is that actually a man or do you retards see trannies everywhere

That's my name too!

Now quick post suzi bulge

It depends how much you value consistency vs playtime. If it's important to you that the game is longer it's a 10/10. If you are okay with shorter games it's a far cry from previous entrees. A lot of people do care about longer play time so it's no surprise it's so successful. You cant blame fromsoft for doing what customers want.

>now that the dust has settled, how would you rate elden ring?
2nd worst in the entire catalog just in front of dark souls 2

>was the open world a valuable addition or did it subtract from the traditional dark souls gameplay.
the open world is responsible for most of what makes it bad like filler content, repeated bosses, copy and paste level design, bipolar difficulty, non-existent progression curve, terrible exploration, and bloat.

why so hard on yourself?

You get set up quickly in any of the games if you knew what you were doing. That's not the problem. The problem is that 90% of the content is copypasted shit.

because im a tranny faggot

Understandable

One thing I found really weird is how they approached the issue of balancing difficulty in an open world: they didn't. Each area will get progressively easier as you do more of the content in it because you will become higher leveled. There's no attempt whatsoever to equalize this, so the first section of an area you do will be very hard and the last very easy.

I've rewatched seasons 1-8 countless times. We'll never know how they did it.

using such derogatory terms about yourself won't help your situation

Is that Suzi?

Why do you care?

Don't man. Seek Christ and repent, he can save your life.

if a game can have flaws and be a 10/10 it's Elden Ring

get over it, you're just going to die anyway

7/10
one of the better games that came out in years but still disappointing

BC it's voice ACTING and if it works it works, and it did.

The sound is all that matters

It's the best open world game I've personally played, with BotW in second

Everyone says BotW was nothing original but I'd never really been able to get into open world games at all until I played that one, then ER really worked for me to. They definitely do something different

Please respond

6/10
nice gwafix (in a few locations), shit everything else.
hilarious, it's identical to ubiclones in a sense. the only difference is no minimap.

BB - 10/10
ER - 9.5/10
DeS - 9/10
DkS3 - 8.5/10
SEK - 8/10
DkS - 7/10
DkS2 - 6.5/10

oh, so it's just a pathetic stalker's eceleb thread

meh. no real point going beyond ng+ and pvp is below dogshit. i realized today ive never been back to sellia, northern caelid, selia, or morne on my last playthrough. ng3 starts scaling damage and health to annoying levels as well

tell me more

MALEnia, lmao

golem get ye gone

>was the open world a valuable addition
No, it had the same problem with all the vast majority of open world games now; it's vast but shallow and it feels like it took away development time that could have been better used for something else, like better boss/mob variety.
Did we really have to fight the Godskin Noble/Apostles twice before fighting them again at the same time for a boss? Or the many, many dragons that had almost identical moves?
