I spent a long time on all the side quests prior to beating Margit the Fell Omen. Only taken a few cracks at Godrick the Grafted. For an aging gamer in his 40’s who usually plays turn based strategy games, or games that let you pause and think I gotta say this game is as tough as advertised but I love it.
Cant remember the last single player RPG I played where you couldn’t eventually win any fight by just outleveling the opponent then spamming your best 1 or 2 attacks. Even Skyrim and Dragon Age’s highest difficulty levels were jokes.
Yeah this really isn't a pause to think kinda game!
Godrick was a fun fight, love the dragon's head weapon, just wish it was an option for his "soul".
I am 70+ hours in and am still exploring. I've leveled up some awesome weapons, including a very cool sword that's a tribute to the GoT throne.

Yeah, one of my FB friends posted that it's "acclaimed". Not sure if he actually played it, though. I have about 25 people in 1 Discord server saying that it's trash. Maybe they're all wrong...
Not sure what's trash about it?

Understandable, as there’s a decade and two consoles in between them. Hopefully some varied content rather than just padded with repetitive fetch quests.
Not repetitive...different feel/look and enemies in each area.

I very rarely travelled that way in Oblivion or Skyrim. Just walked around the countryside between towns, getting attacked occasionally by bandits, bears, giant cats or trolls, and opening up the fast travel option. I haven’t looked at Elden Ring yet, so I’m assuming that’s what you mean.
You can walk around if you want but its more fun to use the horse and the areas are bigger then Skyrim's.

Possibly because, like me, you get caught up in exploring. Hard not to have a good look around while playing an RPG sandbox game.
I wasn't sure if I was going to like the horse element, but its a real cool feature and helps in the exploration.

Nearly 30 hours into Elden Ring and I have only defeated one main boss and not because he was to tough (took me about 10 tries), but because there is so much you can do before progressing the main story line. This game is truly amazing and I am already calling it my all time favorite.

Anyone get Elden ring?
I've played about 15 hours of it so far and compare it more to Far Cry and Skyrim then Dark Souls. It has elements of many games including Bloodborne. Graphics are awesome and it plays great!

I'll be buying it, as will most of the dorks where I work from what it sounds like. Looks pretty cool in the trailers.
I've stayed away from most trailers and the demo play on Youtube, don't want any spoilers. I just hope its at least half as cool as the other souls like games and that the horse isn't lame. (no pun intended!)

just when I think I've seen it all, I'm introduced to the Infinity Murder Signature which adds a few speckles of colored marker for an extra $140
I dig his sig, but even I think that's ridiculous

Anyone else looking forward to Elden Ring coming out next week?
I finally finished beating all three Dark Souls on SL1, so looking forward to getting another tough souls like game!
Most ridiculous comic panels of all time?
