Difficult and lore driven, you won’t be disappointed unless you love having your hand held when playing games. Everything from the sound design to the combat are perfect. Make sure you or whoever you are buying for enjoys a challenge. So much to do and explore.

My first souls experience and I can say that this has become one of my favorite games of all time. Beat it like 5 times already and definitely going back to play the older souls games.

Game worked well and did not have any issues when booting up. Game is an entry title for the PS5 as it shows off well its graphical and gameplay abilities and advantages over other consoles. Great game if you love the Souls series!

An open world From Software souls game. Another game that you just can’t stop playing. You always just want to see what’s next! The gameplay is great, boss battles are tough but feel very rewarding!

This game is beautiful and challenging all the same. Not gonna lie, never played a dark souls game or title before but this game definitely challenges you to not just rush in half heartedly. If you do, you lose all your money. Makes you actually strategize in boss battles and ways you approach different situations.

My first Souls-like, I worried that it would be frustrating and overly difficult -- and it was... in (mostly) the best way. it's a beautifully bleak and realized open world, with some of the most satisfying combat to be had in a game. When it was finished, I was somewhat sad -- after 200 hours!

Great game. It's very long and detailed. I've never spent so much time looking up bits of lore online for a game. If you like a challenge, this is the game. If you're a completionist, you might be playing this game for a year. It's hard to believe I've only been playing for roughly a month. I'm not done yet.

This game is a masterpiece, IF you want Breath of the Wild in your Dark Souls. It doesn't do anything all that new, but it is an exceptional iteration for Souls fans.
If you don't enjoy hard games where you die over and over and over, slowly learning to do better incrementally, this is probably not for you.

I've played a few different souls like games in the past and didn't like any of them. I started playing this game 2 weeks ago and it has consumed over 100 hours of my life already. I can't recommend this game enough!

The game is just magnificent, almost 60 hrs in and I'm still going like OMG!!! that's awesome to new things. But a word to the wise never pre-order from Best Buy. I was supposed to get it on day one of release and because of "Delay," my game arrived on 2/28/2022. I had to buy the digital copy to play on release.

Honestly I just started playing ELDEN RING. If you’re a souls fan you’ll love it. If not, we’ll perhaps not as much. There are some issues for the PS5 version which are framrate slowdowns and some bugs and glitches but that’s to be expected now adays in the first week of launch, all in all tho great game, great souls like mechanics but in its current state I’d give it a 4/5. When they iron out the problems I’ll bump it up to 5/5

Overall it is a great addition to the souls genre and you can easily lose yourself for hours in this game. My only complaint is that there is no guidance for players just starting out that haven’t played a souls game before so there is a big learning curve in the beginning that takes to a few hours just to understand. With no clear direction it is hard to know what areas you should go to first in order to progress the story.
