Who did open world better?

Surprisingly Skyrim, and I don't even like the game. How could FROM soft fuck up so badly is a mystery to me.

>a 2 year old can solve the "puzzles" in skyrim
Still has them.
>Almost like they are entirely different games
Irrelevant since OP is asking a question comparing them.
>bosses
Not relevant becuase I specifically mentioned dungeons, not bosses. You couldn't even argue about that so you had to bring up bosses out of nowhere.
>ah yes like saying Yes / No
This isn't Fallout 4.
Horrid cope, by the way.

>Surprisingly
How is it surprising? ER is just a dark souls level but bigger It's fundamentally the same as every other game in the souls series. It didn't do anything new. It wasn't even marketed as such.

>Almost like they are entirely different games

Retard the thread is asking who did open world better, and an empty dead world does not make for an interesting open world experience. The games being different is not an excuse.

>Skyrim is alive
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhh
you fucking dumb cunt

More alive than Elden Ring? Yeah, it is.

More alive then Elden Shit, Fromtroon.

>Copy pasta NPCs talk to me
>Its alive!
Actual irl NPC
This is why they keep dumbing their games down Because you CONSOOM regardless brainlets

Skyrim

>uses the npc meme like a robot while calling other people npc's
The lack of self awareness is surreal.

There's literally maybe 15 NPC's total in Elden Shart yet Fromdrones want to sit here, and argue that it's more alive then Skyrim.
Lol
Lmao even.

They will also try telling you that it has more unique content than Red Dead Redemption 2 or Breath of the Wild. They're deranged.

>Breath of the Wild
>Unique Content
>10 weapons
>2 enemy types in the whole game
>5 bosses
Okay carry on

>Red Dead 2
>Unique Content
>Shoot at the same Humans for 30 hours until Fin
Sounds really unique

>video games
>unique content
Lmao

Japs don't know how to do open world. All they can do is make SO HARD bosses and big weird landscapes with all the supposed "lore" hidden away for autists to try and figure out. Between Elden Ring and BotW it's clear japs have a fundamental misunderstanding of what open worlds should be.

>SO HARD
Elden Ring isnt hard
You got filtered
Go back to Basedrim the game that plays itself for you

>Lore hidden away
What is Environmental Storytelling?
Every item, Every NPC, Every location tells a story.

>But I need to be spoonfed every inch of information by a dozen copy pasted npcs that state the very obvious I already found out but forgot because my adhd brain is melted from all this highoctane left click block combat

>Fundamental misunderstanding of what open worlds should be

Open world is literally just OPEN WORLD

Minecraft isnt an open world by your definition.

I'd rather play Skyrim, RDR2 or BotW over Elden Ring anyday.

Minecraft has more NPCs than elden shart

>should be
I'm distinguishing between good and bad open worlds. Elden Ring is open world yes, but it doesn't do it properly because it doesn't take great advantage of being open world. Certainly not like Skyrim or RDR2.

Elden Tards are so delusional. Skyrim, an ELVEN-years-old game, does literally all but one thing better than Elden Ring.

fpbp

elden ring because it doesn't crumble into nothingness without quest markers or the compass

Nobody. Everyone loses when it comes to open worlds

filtered

Elden Ring.

It'll also outsell Skyrim, get more GoTYs. It's over, BotWfags, Bethesdakeks, Witcherniggers. It's all over. All you niggers can do is cope in yet another Elden Ring thread.

>Skyrim
>bump limit
Literally when has Skyrim (as in Skyrim itself, not TES) hit bump limit recently?

thats because your dogshit and brought to the edge of suicide by every difficult encounter

skyrim is made for relaxation
Elden ring is made for suffering

Any Imp vStormcloak thread will hit bump limit on multiple boards to this day.
pol is actually the best place to discuss it.

obviously skyrim just for having things in it that aren't enemies. i don't like skyrim, but i fucking hate elden ring

You said daily, should be easy for you to find a single SKyrim thread that recently hit BUMP LIMIT.

>”what’s better, elden ring or skyrim?”
>skyrim is better than botw
Ok retard

>brainlets never played elden ring
lol

>things in it that aren't Enemies
I don't get this shit argument.

You're literally arguing for Ubisoft game design
>hurr durr, don't focus on what your fanbase wants you to focus on
>just half ass as many mechanics as you can think off and hope it fits

You can call Elden Ring bad or whatever, but there is objectively no open world game (Dragons Dogma included before you pretend to have played it) with the amount of enemy variety, quality boss fights (yes, cope + filtered +ratio'd) or build variety. Not one. Fromsoft won, you lost.

Lol way more alive then Elden Ring. Lands Between is the most artificial world in Open World history.

Skyrim and it isnt even comparable

>NOOOO, ALL YOU DO IN IT IS HUG A QT WAIFU AND KILL MONSTERS
And that's why Elden Ring > your shitty open world game.

There's environmental story telling and then there's disembodied audio logs attached to items as the primary source of lore.

>Yea Forums is now defending Skyrim out of spite due to Elden Ring taking over the entire gaming world
It just keeps getting better and better.

Elden Ring has actual exploration
Skyrim was ruined by the quest marker being necessary to enjoy anything about it

>empty
>no npcs
>shit combat
vs
>legendary kino
>deepest lore
>prime toddkino

Yea Skyrim wins and it isnt even close

trying too hard, you lost

fpbp

Cope eldentranny

It's not even a debate. Skyrim with its shit writing and gameplay is only good as a toolbox for modders, while ER has an actual vision and mechanics beyond giving children and retards a sandbox to fuck around in.

>Elden Ring will also outsell Skyrim
The delusion. I know you were 2 years old when Skyrim came out, so let me remind you that Skyrim was a fucking global phenomenon that not even elden ring and all of its hype measured up to in sheer enthusiasm. The game sold like hotcakes then. And has been selling like hotcakes ever since. We will not still be talking about elden ring in 11 years like we do with Skyrim. I can guarantee you that.

>with the amount of enemy variety, quality boss fights (yes, cope + filtered +ratio'd) or build variety
None of this has anything to do with being a good open world. Here's something elden ring doesn't have that every other open world has: NPCs that can walk. Not one.

Yes, yes, true. But Skyrim has more thing to do than roll and attack for 200 hours. You can steal, craft, join a guild, buy a home, sell your wares etc.
These things are mediocre in the game but at least you can do them. Skyrim wins

The only reason it will not outsell Skyrim is because FROM will actually move on to making other games instead of rereleasing the same title every few years.

>These things are mediocre in the game but at least you can do them.
Skyrim audience in a nutshell. The sad thing is it's exactly what majority of people want.
