    Played over 100+ hours before finishing recently. What an amazing experience. Roughly on par with Dark Souls lll with difficulty. With a bit of grinding and accompanied with Ashes, the main bosses were very manageable. Optional bosses like Malenia were a bit harder to beat, but not impossible. Weaponry and armor also amazing. This is basically Dark Souls lV with a horse.

    I loved this game. I had never played a Souls-like game before and there definitely is a high bar for difficulty here, but if you get stuck on something then the open world allows you to leave and go level up some where else and come back when you are a little stronger. Had a lot of fun playing coop with my wife and we played the whole game together. The coop is a little weird though, and it only gives the progression of the area to the Host player so you'll have to play each area twice (we didn't mind too much because it forced us to level up faster and made the game a little easier)

    Eldin Ring is definatly not a game to scoff at. It is truly incredible and full of small details and secrets that are very fun to discover. This game is immensely challanging, however, the sheer sucess you feel after defeating a hard boss is like none other. This game is not for everyone it takes a large amount of time to progress and you may have a hard time if you only like to pick up games and play them every so often. Overall it is a excellent game worth the price and the challange.

    Not many games release nowadays that feel finished, full, and give you a sense of accomplishment. Elden Ring throws you into a world of challenge while allowing you to tackle it any way you see fit. It has all kinds of weapons for any style you wish to play while you face imminent doom around every corner. Each death becomes a lesson learned, as you eventually triumph and reign supreme, becoming the Elden Lord. If you like RPG’s, open world games, or just want to feel like the man (or woman), get it right now!

    Very fun! Game can be as long as you want it to be. You can try to b-line for the finish, but I recommend exploring and enjoying the game, level up your character! The 3 star on ease of use is because the game is actually pretty hard, but that's what makes it so great!

    Game of the year in my opinion. I have played demon souls, dark souls 1 and 3 and sekiro and I feel like elden ring is a good mash up of them! As difficult as the game may be, I feel like the experience is worth it. You can make it easier in various ways as well so the game can be played by anyone

    Honestly, I was extremely nervous about buying this game. I heard the rumors that it was difficult. However, my buddy convinced me to buy it so we can play. Since then, I leveled up and the game is amazing! Seriously consider buying this!

    This game is the bomb! Can be pretty difficult at times. You'll need a lot of patiences & practicing with bosses. The controls are top notch and easy to figure out. Graphics are stunning.

    This game is amazing but you need to be patient. Is tough at the beginning but gets much better the more you play. Best Buy did a great job delivering my game token in a timely manner.

    I've tried a few RPGs since Skyrim, and haven't been hooked by any of them. Saw the good reviews and decided to get Elden Ring. I'm hooked. I tried a Dark Souls game before and it kicked my butt. Glad this isn't quite as brutal as that experience, but it is still painful. I find the bosses REALLY difficult to beat, especially solo (without cooperators or summons). But that is just the nature of this game. It works. I was pleasantly surprised with the large map size. This game will suck you in. Still don't know how I'll be able to ever beat it though, it is so difficult!

    If you haven’t played this game yet…. What are you even doing with your life. An absolute modern classic. 10/10. This game reminded me of exploring super mario 64 for the first time. What a memorable play through

    Bought this game for my son. Although it’s a difficult game, he seems to be enjoying the experience. He anticipates that this will take him a while to beat the whole game, which is very good value as most games can be passed in just a few days. Graphics are awesome on Series S. With Game Sharing, we are able to play it on our second Xbox Series S.
