Curse you bots to oblivion!

And while you're exploring, your character gets stronger and allows you to beat the boss when you come back.

"your", in 2022...

Yeah I mean you can do that with any souls game tbh

@@nathanderrick1768 yea but in DS1 if you're stuck on Tarus demon for example you can only go to at MAX Blightown, New Londo, Catacombs, and Darkroot. And you can't really do much in half those places. It's the same story really for like every boss in the early game in the whole series. Except in Elden Ring you can quite literally run past the Tree Sentinel or Magrit or Godrick and book it to the end of the game and gather the most busted endgame items ever. It's way different here

Not if you played Crysis.

“Wow” in beauty or “wow” did I really just die from that. Because if it’s the second I agree many wow’s later.

@@spider-man4818 crazy how opinions work

imo elden ring and breath of the wild are examples of near perfect open worlds. botw has some issues with repetitive "dungeons" but the main draw of the game is freedom in approaching encounters which, due to the interactivity of the game systems, is massive whereas in elden ring there is so much crammed in here, its actually nuts. every new area i get to its like, "ok i must be getting close to finishing the game, and then i find a new map and realize how little ive seen so far. i havent even been to leyndell yet and i believe i still have to go through leyndell, mountaintop of the giants, haligtree, ainsel river main, lake of rot and farum azula.

i thought the AI invader was a real person when it kicked my ass, nope just a npc. made me feel like a noob

I definitely feel like AI in this game has been tuned to fuck you up, bosses will do combos and then add a move to it that they don't normally do, feels like a real fight cause you don't know what the hell they gon throw at you

No spoilers here but honestly... it feels like even before you use your Crimson Tear flasks. They know your going to press the button to do say. And then they quickly attack and wipe your health again. Rage inducing but awesome

Yup. The jumps have i-frames, mounting and dismounting has i-frames, you can use your doubled jump to perform a midair 180 without losing momentum, you can use your left hand equipment on horseback by using the two-handing command (which a lot of people don't seem to know), you can of course do a jumping light attack but you can also do a jumping heavy attack by charging a heavy before pressing jump. Horseback fighting is definitely deeper than most players realize. However, even if it was just as Moist described it, I'd still enjoy itm

@@Jaimyoutubing people seem to think it’s shallow because they don’t grasp the fact they have to learn to fight on horse like they do on foot. You can’t just be max speed dashing and attacking. It’s a weapon in your arsenal but one you still have to use right.

I definitely feel like certain battles are balanced for horseback. Aiming is tricky, but that's just part of the tradeoff of being able to run away and heal safely 95% of the time.

im pretty sure most people know you can dodge and attack on horseback

@@mikec5400 the dodge I refrencing is literally calling and dismounting torrent to get s.

@@huskytzu7709 remember, he hasn't finished the game

It's gets worse in the later areas

youll get sick of the experience when you start missing all the really good level design and bosses in every other souls game. 7/10 unless youre stanning

@@RideRM1313 I'd say the level design is among the best in Elden Ring. The legacy dungeon really are amazing standouts with really compelling exploration and backdrops. While a lot of overworld bosses are variations of previous ones scattered about, the main bosses at the very least have fantastic presentation. That being said, I can agree that Elden Ring, as much as I've been appreciating it, has reminded me of just how perfect the DS3 bosses are, especially when it comes to the music. I can maybe play a few seconds of an ER main boss' theme in my head, while I can hear just a few seconds of a particular DS3 track, and I instantly know from what boss that track is. ER music is good, but I think it lacks the melodic progression of DS3's OST that would prevent it from sounding generally epic (generic bombastic backing tracks that sound different but aren't too unidentifiable vs melodic orchestral grandeur that differentiates itself every time. In addition, bit a spoiler, but the boss design I'm particular irks me. It really sucks that after you pass the halfway point, some damage becomes nigh unavoidable and Vigor becomes a trivial stat. DS3's bosses are fun because there's solid telegraphs and reactions that you master the more you fight them, whereas in Elden Ring, without mentioning names, some bosses have such insane unreactable combos that one shot you or such huge hitboxes that it becomes unavoidable to dodge. A lot of the time, you feel like you're at the mercy of the boss AI so that it doesn't use particular attacks as frequently so you have a better chance at defeating them. Not to mention, normal overworld enemies adopting a similar design. It's a very mixed bag to be honest. All in all, Elden Ring is a balanced game. You get the highest of highs as well as the lowest of lows. It is, so to speak, the most complete FromSoftware game.

@KungFuChrissy goodamn I have an identical feeling

@@RideRM1313 1000 hours in now and it still better than the previous souls games. And it also has now outsold the entire combined dark souls series in only 2 years. The only person stanning is you for the original dark souls.

@Xiya Noma 09 wat

Fr Fromsoft never disappoints in anything except optimizing their games XD

theyll optimize it, they always end up doing so. sekiro can run on a 710 now

I think the optimization isn't too Bad for a Open world map which is that massive and doesn't require loading Screens (unless you fast travel). Compare this to the Release of Cyberpunk for instance.

wise words

This is my 1st souls like game, I tried souls 1 but the movement was painful to me so I never touch any of those games, but all the fuzz got me to try elden ring and I gotta say the movement it's addictive, and the whole gamplay is amazing I so many levels, 10/10 I play it on pc with high-demanding shaders and I got no frames dropping so idk about that

@@RPGeek It might be better than Demons' Souls (never played it), but Scholar of the First Sin is a bandaid on a broken game.

Also the jumping and rolling mechanics are literally broken on a technical level. Still a fun game though, but even Scholar lacks the fine polish of From's other titles.

That’s honestly a really great way to describe it. I couldn’t realy put my finger on how it just felt different compared to dark souls or bloodborne. Those feel very gloomy, depressing, and atmospheric, you’re traveling in a broken land hanging onto its last threads, or a city plagued by a horrible disease. But elden ring, although some parts of it do feel “oppressive”, it’s more awe-inspiring and epic than its predecessors. Instead of you looking at a challenge and instinctively fearing it, you try to think “how can i beat this”

Imma be honest it feels like Fanboyism and "Hopping on the hype train" since all the reviews are just 10/10. Like I get that souls games are gonna be good and have the great be challenge in there, but idk this one feels like the most hyped up game. I'm gonna play it but I don't like the hype around it. Ik it's gonna be good but that's just how I feel.

@@Dark_4NG3L-999 I honestly don’t understand why people have a problem with hype for a game lmao. Sure things can be overhyped, like cyberpunk, where the result was way worse than what was expected. But elden ring is literally exceeding the hype, which is why it’s even more popular and praised now than before people we’re waiting for it. Is it even hype anymore if the game already released and we know what it’s like? That’s just valid praise imo

Too bad the bandwagon of people being not used to souls games is happening. People hate on it for being hard.

@@willsteward1631 lol yeah i’ve noticed this too. Probably because of the popularity there are a ton of new players, which is great, but idk what they were expecting lol. “it’s too hard, it’s so unfair”, it’s pretty clear that they’ve never played a game with actual challenge before lol

It's kinda crazy how you can be 60h into the game and still be in leyndell, and yet it doesn't feel like the game is artifically long, like most open world games where they put a million points of interest in the game and expect you to go into every one of them, you'll have 60h and still be at the middle of the game because you feel like it, not because the game is forcing you to

Greatest open world game

The thing about Elden Ring is that knowing FromSoft's history, this is likely THE game they've been trying to make for a long time now but just couldn't make work until now. Demon's Souls for instance was literally conceived as an open world game meant to go against Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, while Dark Souls 2 was also meant to be an actual open world Dark Souls game but had to be scaled back for time and resource constraints (hence why the levels in the final game are so disjointed, because they're parts of a larger open-world map that got smashed together in a Souls-like way). Nonetheless, all the soulsborne games are essentially pseudo-open world in terms of mechanics, thus giving them the experience needed to craft Elden Ring.

@@joshlin8002 Ever since I played botw, every other open world game became boring. Botw made me realize exploration is one of my favorite game features, and it stood as a stark contrast to the boring Ubisoft formula of showing you exactly what and where everything is on the map. For every new game that came out, I was hoping to have that itch of freedom and discovery scratched, but I kept getting dissapointed time and time again. But now Elden Ring is here, it follows in the footsteps of botw and its everything I could have ever hoped for! The game didnt show and tell me to go and clear that dungeon, I found that dungeon myself hidden away somwhere and it feels fucking great! The exploration, the classic FromSoft world building and atmosphere, the combat and build variety, Its the perfect game!

I think Elden Ring respects the player's intelligence much more than most other open world games. That's been From Software's thing for years; the tools to succeed are there, you just have to be thoughtful and deliberate with your actions.

That is exactly why I didn't enjoy red dead redemption. So much hand holding

💀💀💀💀

I think charlie was paid to review this… there’s no battle royale so it doesn’t deserve the rating he’s given

I don’t get the joke

@@syndicategaming1668 Very funny

based

IMO the game difficulty is poorly balanced. The late bosses/areas can be, depending on what you do, either too hard or too easy.

Poorly balanced, needlessly big map with filler content, copy paste boring dungeons, copy paste bosses and minibosses (even the fucking main story ones), poor enemy variety (the same basic knights, rats and dogs everywhere), too many reused assets (same DS1/DS3 animations and moves, same fucking asylum and capra demons but now with extra movement tracking), comical input reading, offensive traps (the same "loot in an open area with no visible enemies, except a crab will come out of nowhere/enemies behind corners"), camera being an issue after almost a decade of remaking the same game, especially since they actually made a proper camera in Sekiro; tons of unimproved QoL and cryptic bs side quests that need an internet guide more than ever to finish Amazing how low the standards for games are that this game will be called a masterpiece and will get goty

@@romank9611 Imagine the state of the industry when, although i agree with most of what you said and think its valid criticism, FromSoftware still make some of the best games out there.

@@romank9611 Guess someone hasnt beaten the first boss..(joking) this is valid criticism though and is a good reasom to not like it

@@romank9611 I mean... listing a bunch of shit that you don't like doesnt make the game bad. Charlie straight up gushes about the game. You can't really devalue his opinion. Meaning that clearly there is something to this game being good.

No pc?

🤣🤣

Bro just ask solaire and lautrec to help!

Summon Solaire and upgrade your weapon by going to Andre! Makes the fight a lot easier. Chop the tails off as well by attacking them, which removes the tail swipe attacks so that's one less attack to avoide

Some mediocre tips, but in my opinion don't be greedy on the hits. Heal generously if you think you're taking more damage then you should, but don't be afraid to take a gambit if you think you can finish you're opponent. Also, don't spam roll. Some attacks can be easily avoided by backpedalling alone.

FromSoft: The only company that tells you that you're a masochist, then gives you a confusing mixture of frustration and dopamine.

Meh game.

You never tried the Witcher 3

How can U enjoy a game that pisses U off is there something wrong with u

@@jackchaos100 Ever played tarkov

Do you guys not have any input delay while dodging/rolling?

@@sigmashorts3234 that’s probably happening because your equipping too many heavy items and are fat rolling as a result, you can check this on the equipment screen and see if your exceeding your equip load

thats a unique feature of souls like games.@@sigmashorts3234

30 hours in and I recently beat the second boss, I'm taking my sweet old time. A lot of hidden items and areas makes it a really fun expereince.

Is the second area Caelid or the Astrologist place slightly up north?

@@volacticmilk9614 astro. Caelid kinda requires lvl5 titanite gear and ~lvl 50 or higher character for my skill level

Which is to say like +12 to +15

I'm gotta tell you I just replayed DS1 and DS2 like a few months ago and even just comparing things in my head. They still hold up, they're still challenging and fun. I dont think that this game takes anything away from the other Souls games.

Bruh bots

dark souls 1 scks

@@ratchet2007 your opinion sucks

@@kwamemwangs2173 no you

Jerma tried, and it took him like 8 hours or smth like that

@@LectroNyx 8 hours?! on just one mini boss?

@@LectroNyx Well, Jerma isn't a god level gaming warlord

@@LectroNyx crazed streamer tortures audience

Minor spoiler: Is the tribute the greatsword or is it something else I’m yet to see?

@@fahimtajwaar2521 Yellow trees you use everywhere.

@@DonexXGamez damn, real brain fart moment

@@fahimtajwaar2521 actually there are heaps of different references/tributes to berserk and kentaro miura, the world tree and the greatsword graves around the map are some of the biggest ones

@@randyrandy351 Yh I get a lot of the references but I misunderstood when I heard tribute and thought there would be a more glaringly obvious reference

You forgot about Activision blizzard

So basically you like trash games, gotcha

@@drunkhusband6257 do I like trash games? Absolutely. I play all the Dynasty Warriors games despite them all being pretty meh at best but enjoyable as hell Do I like trash Souls games? Literally impossible. There is no such thing as a trash Souls game

@@modernotaku1764 All the souls games are trash, games made for degenerate social rejects.

@@drunkhusband6257 looks like someone didn’t make it pass the first boss 😂

@@aaronchif to be fair to him, I’m also trash at Souls Games. I’ve beaten just about every single one other than Elden Ring now, and I still can BARELY call myself competent. Magrit alone destroyed me in every which way possible, and I barely managed to beat it. I still absolutely love the games tho

I have 35 hours and i only discovered half of the world and i love it

I honestly imagine it being a lock for GOTY, probably the best game in years

How long were you in limgrave for? I haven’t even started stormveil in like 12 hours lol

@@TheChaunceyman It's definitely deserving, but I don't know if it's a "lock for GOTY" with GOW Ragnarok and BOTW 2 also supposedly coming out this year. Elden Ring def will be at least a finalist though

I played like 30+hrs and I thought the map was done, then suddenly stumbled upon a teleporting chest which yeeted me way up north showing more of the map. I was like O-O I havent even scratched the surface yet

The npcs are literally invisible to me bruh

@@ArtFromHer what is the npc location you are talking about?

This is how i felt buying and playing the yakuza games when they where dirt cheap on sale. I will be buying elden ring as soon as i finish bloodborne this week

Don't worry, fromsoft always has a dlc or two in their games. I imagine their dlcs are going to be the size of an entire game though lol

ew

Literally dude, you can see all the effort. They give you what you pay for, any other company would’ve charged over $60 for just half the quality this game is offering it’s really sad how money hungry video game companies are becoming.

lemme tell you about japanese work ethic and toxic culture lmao

As they say “this guy spitting facts”

I feel guilty paying just 60 dollars for this masterpiece

Best game ever for sure

Speaking about Xenoblade Chronicles, we’re getting Xenoblade Chronicles 3 this September!

What about botw? I really liked that too

@@megabannana8901 BOTW is a great game, but it didn't hit all the marks the way Xenoblade did. At least not for me

@@RoronoaZoro-lu5vo I saw that, I might have to pick it up. Wasn't a fan of Xenoblade Chonicles 2, but we'll see

@Billy The gameplay is fine, but the anime tropes were putting me off a lot. Not a bad game, but definitely didn't enjoy it like X or this game

You’re goddamn right

Technically that would be gta but yeah

i believe he created the world before the shattering of the elden ring. everything else after was created by miyazaki.

@@bubblehead7469 Point here. I wouldn't mind if Mr.Martin actually took time for a book or two to explain the events that lead to the Shattering. Out of all the Fromsoft Games, Elden Ring has by far the most... 'transparent' background lore that isn't left vague.

@@TheNapster153 And i'm loving that

@NEGIN-sexyy nigga what

I feel like Martin worked with some of the dialogue and characters, to me the dialogue and characters are the best they’ve ever been and from reading his books I definitely feel like he wrote for the dialogue and main story line

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1arEUoWxpP4.html Got it

Ya it feels so good

Having an FPS problem does not translate into putting care into the game lol

same after ER the ds1 combat feels so boring

Gotta agree but I think you’re missing out in not experiencing them in order. They are still amazing and do get better after every game. DS2 is a bit less interesting but I loved DS1,3 and Blood borne

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-1arEUoWxpP4.html Finally ..

one of the first preorders from this year that was actually worth imo

The thing I do to keep myself interested is either take a close look at the map for structures that look unique and explorable, or pick a direction and just go until I find something cool. For example, I think you know this by now but the Evergaols have a very specific shape and usually stand out on the map, poison swamps have a particular color, cave entrances are sometimes shown too, and though churches and ruined towns share a similar shape from up above it's always worth it exploring either of those

@@Erick-tv8oq the beautiful part is, pick a direction, go there, and you're bound to find something interesting.

That's the beauty of an open world game that a lot of OW developers have forgotten (ahem, Bethesda, Ubisoft) there's not really a wrong direction to go, especially with all the bosses

And they didn’t promise anything that wasn’t delivered. Which was mainly cyberpunks problem.

We are so used to trash games that we are praising companies for selling a finished product. Sad.

@@carljohnson6183 yeah it is sad. But this game should be praised because they expanded on the souls formula in an amazing way that works well.

In terms of content in the game I agree, in terms of the technical side of the game I disagree. No next gen version being even close to a locked 60 and stuttering issues on PC is in my opinion enough to call it unfinished as a complete package.

please explore the endgame areas and fight the late game bosses and tell me it’s a finished product.

It is a breathtaking moment abdolutely

The cosmic sky in the UNDERGROUND ruins is one of the coolest art pieces I’ve seen.
