Elden Ring was supposed launch in January of 2022, but it was recently delayed by approximately a month.

The footage is from the PC version, and should not be considered as a representation of the quality of the full game on release....

FromSoftware has been very proud of the game so far and understandably so, as Elden Ring has been receiving perfect review scores across the board.

Malenia, Blade of Miquella is an optional boss that players can find at the bottom of Miquella’s Haligtree, a well-hidden area that takes a bit of effort to discover. As for why this battle is so difficult, several contributing factors can be pointed out. Malenia has two full health bars, for instance, with her second phase introducing some deadly Scarlet Rot attacks to the mix. Whenever she damages the player, she steals their health, and the Waterfowl Dance requires some stellar dodging skills to survive....

While a keyboard and mouse sit with controllers as the typical way to play video games, experimenting with different control methods to enhance the experience of playing FromSoftware games has been a tradition in the community going back to the original Dark Souls. One of the most recent examples of this is another Elden Ring player using a banana controller to beat a boss, but methods like these are more often used as unique challenges as opposed to making the game easier....

The weirdest aspect of the Eternal City of Nokron is not that a meteorite must obliterate southern Limgrave to reveal it, or even that the entire city had been beneath the player’s feet this whole time. Rather, it is the first boss of the area which is both baffling and intriguing, drawing Tarnished into a battle against themselves. The Mimic Tear duplicates everything that the player has equipped, including but not limited to armor, weapons, and spells....

Here’s where players will find Miriel, Pastor of Vows during their adventure....

Weirdly enough, by the time players arrive at the Mountaintops of the Giants in Elden Ring near Zamor Ruins, an NPC that looks like Bloody Finger Yuria will be waiting. Upon speaking with him, he introduces himself as Shabriri and says that the owner of this vessel is dead.

In a thread created by premiumchap2 on the Elden Ring subreddit, fans are discussing the foes with whom they struggled the most. The post features a picture of the spider hands most commonly associated with Elden Ring’s Liurnia’s Caria Manor, and they are certainly burdensome due in no small part to their disturbing nature. However, as pointed out by PartTimeBear, the Bloodflame Incantation—or even something as simple as a flame pot—can stun them and claim a significant amount of their health, making them much more manageable....

WARNING: MAJOR SPOILERS AHEADEven with this feature in Elden Ring now, it’s easy to miss out on entire questlines and NPCs. The game doesn’t hold players’ hands, and that’s fine, but for someone looking to do everything, missing a whole quest can be heartbreaking.

Anyone wanting to make sure they’ve done everything should double-check the below NPCs and Questlines....

Fans have since been dying to glean any information on the game, sometimes dealing with long data droughts.

Some specific traversal challenges were added to Elden Ring in order to test the player’s platforming skills. However, although the game’s new jumping controls do allow for freer player movement, Elden Ring’s control scheme is still primarily designed around its combat system, and this means that some of the game’s platforming challenges can be extremely tricky and frustrating.
