Customer Ratings & Reviews

I don't understand the hype. This is a bad game—and that's not something I'd say lightly. I don't just mean it's not perfect for me, personally, although I realize the gritty aesthetic is part of what some people like; it straight-up comes across unfinished! In the few hours I played, these qualities stood out: 1. This game HATES the player. It doesn't even try to hide its antagonism—and, no, I don't mean difficulty. Every bit of text serves to do anything BUT help, from the startup message harassing you for not quitting the game properly to the grumpy tone of the admonishment you have to read through every time you start the game without an active PlayStation Plus subscription. 2. Utter lack of narrative. There is no clear purpose to undertake, nor any reason to relate to the protagonist. You get an ancient-history cut scene to start, and are told to "seek the ring." That's it. I'm fine with having no map markers or other basic QOL features that have become ubiquitous to make games feel less like work, but NOTHING here compels the player to play, other than that they can push buttons and watch corresponding effects on screen, as if that should be entirely enough. 3. Every facet is noticeably sloppy. For example, the background music loop of the first area audibly ends and restarts abrasively. They could've smoothed that out, but NAH. That type of blatant disregard for quality everywhere: graphics, audio, "narrative," mechanics, etc.. This is what I mean about the game seeming unfinished. For $70, all these elements together seem to laugh in the player's face. Gotcha! I probably would've ignored it entirely if a friend didn't talk me into getting a copy. But now I'm out that money, salty, unfulfilled, and THAT, to me, is the only compelling aspect of Elden Ring. What a letdown!

But the open world kicks it up to 11. Will u like it? Well i got a co worker who did not like any of the previous Dark souls games but he loves this game so go figure.

Great game, could be hard for new players, excellent graphics

Game of the year. Open world and great lore. Best souls game.

From Soft continues to make the best action RPGs out there

Great way to lose a few hours. Explore, run, see the sites.

Great game. Love playing it. Highly recommended for anyone.

This game was ridiculously hard. I know of people who are great at it, and it's wonderful to them. However, I'm not one of those people. I did get farther than expected but it's nothing I wanted to continue to stay frustrated at. i tried to take the game back to the store since it had only been a day since I'd purchased but BestBuy wouldn't let me return it, and a buyback option wasn't even available. So, I was stuck with the stupid game, and couldn't even sell it.

This game looks spectacular! It exceeded my expectations.

Its very good awesome games the best game ever this year

One of the best ever. Played 100 hours and wanted more.

Great graphics with lots of action. Highly recommended.

From software does it again. Huge open world and magic!!!

Game of the Year!! It looks amazing on the Playstation 5

A very in depth game. There is a lot of open world play

It's a really great game on a great video game console.

This game is really great. Low rating is for bestbuy. I have many options to pre-order this game, but the reason why I want to buy it on ebay is that I really like the pre-order bonus steelbook. But the onTrac lost the steelbook, and best buy refuse to send me another one because they said it's a gift...

fun game , great graphics , would buy all over again

It was great. I played nonstop. It was so much fun.

This is a great game. Challenging, good graphics.
