RELATED: The Best Games To Play If You Like Skyrim As a medieval fantasy, The Elder Scrolls lore is packed with stories and references of bygone kings and queens of old. Many of these individuals, along with their corresponding tales, prove just as intriguing as the main events of any of the games. These monarchs played an important role in shaping the settings that players love to explore. 7 Umaril The Unfeathered In The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, players have ample opportunity to learn more about the land of Cyrodiil....

RELATED: Elder Scrolls Online: How To Get A Companion While its two, three, and four item bonuses increase resource totals and basic damage, its full set bonus has the potential to affect every other piece of armor being worn. The Heartland Conqueror set will make a player reconsider the traits imbued on their armor, as its power is directly correlated with these normally unimpactful bonuses. Heartland Conqueror Set Bonuses Two Items Equipped: Adds 129 Weapon and Spell Damage Three Items Equipped: Adds 1096 Max Magicka Four Items Equipped: Adds 1096 Max Stamina Full Set Bonus: Increases power of all Weapon Traits by 100% (not including Ornate or Intricate)...

Conceivably, Chirac and his allies might win a parliamentary majority, which could stabilize the government, but if they fall short, they might be tempted to forge coalitions with Le Pen’s partisans. The worst-case scenario? France could find itself with a Parliament so divided that no clear majority exists and no lasting coalition can be formed. The president will be able to appoint a prime minister and cabinet, but legislation would require ad hoc coalitions for every measure, and under the Constitution no new elections could be held for more than a year....

If you have not progressed their questline to Leyndell yet, and have not talked to Miriel at the Church of Vows, don’t solve the Statue of Radagon puzzle as the reveal will not mean as much without context given in dialogue with these NPCs....

WARNING: POTENTIAL SPOILERS FOR ELDEN RING AHEADElden Ring has its flaws, and many would argue that it loses a lot of its momentum in the second half (or so) of the game. While its highlights and its flaws are a matter of opinion, it’s also worth noting one character who doesn’t seem to get any real resolution—Rennala, High Queen of the Full Moon. Players will have to fight and defeat her to proceed with the story, but given her role in Elden Ring’s background as well as her relationship with Ranni, it just feels somewhat incomplete....

The Road’s End Catacombs are one of the many subterranean cemeteries in Elden Ring. Players can target this Dungeon to get the Watchdog’s Staff and other items. This guide will explain where to find the Road’s End Catacombs as well as how to navigate inside them.

Whether players compete against other players or join a team of three, they will need great weapons and powerful builds in order to come out on top....

However, perhaps just as impressive as its landscapes are the game’s NPCs, specifically the non-hostile ones. The diverse roster of characters one runs into on their journey through The Lands Between makes the journey all the more interesting and varied. For example, many players have made art of Elden Ring’s Ranni, dedicating their works to one of their favorite characters from the game.

As to be expected from a number of mainstream video games, a plethora of memes have surfaced as a result of Elden Ring’s success. While the memes tend to vary in origin, the Elden Ring dog memes have proven to be quite hilarious. The basis of the meme essentially involves players referring to various non-hostile creatures as dogs. Now, one fan has received a special creation based on the dog meme as a way of celebrating a significant accomplishment....

Now, two months later, From Software’s Elden Ring doesn’t seem any closer to becoming a reality. At least they aren’t suffering alone anymore, after the highly anticipated Metroidvania game Hollow Knight: Silksong was absent from this week’s Nintendo Indie World showcase. As a result, some Elden Ring fans began posting memes about their shared predicament. RELATED: Player Generates Elden Ring’s ‘Final Boss’ Using Neural Network While this new trend has yet to get anywhere close to the ocean of Elden Ring memes already in circulation, one can find a few choice images when browsing the Elden Ring subreddit....

Other FromSoftware games have consistently released art books, but the two Elden Ring volumes will be the biggest art books yet (for comparison, Bloodborne’s art book had 250 pages and Dark Souls 3 had 350). The first volume will focus on NPCs, armor, and locations while the second volume is set to feature items, enemies, and weapons. While this release is only in Japan, fans are optimistic that a global release will eventually happen as well based on how Dark Souls art books have been treated....

After two years of having no new information about Elden Ring, now there’s a ton of fan theories and speculation. It’s much more of a traditional FromSoftware game than a lot of fans expected, but that’s not inherently a bad thing, and George R. R. Martin clearly left his mark. The revealed game lore is incredible, and the art style is particularly striking. However, one of the first things players noticed about Elden Ring is how similar the combat looks to Dark Souls, FromSoftware’s biggest franchise....

While most fans of the Souls trilogy knew that there could be similarities, given how much its incredibly defined world and well-structured gameplay created a winning and often-imitated formula, the resemblance caught some fans off guard. FromSoftware often releases games in the Souls-like formula, and the trilogy has influenced a number of RPGs in the last decade to some degree, however minor. The studio’s other popular works, Bloodborne and Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, both have very distinct worlds and they incorporate major innovations to combat....

The title of the post, shared in Reddit’s Elden Ring community, is “My most embarrassing death in a FromSoft game to date.” That’s an impressive claim on its own, because From Software has so many games, each with endless ways to have been embarrassed. The clip itself sees the player battling with a Golem, a giant mechanical enemy powered by fire, defeating the enemy with just a sliver of health remaining....

A common feature that has been used in FromSoftware games since the advent of Demon’s Souls is the ability to invade other players’ games. The goal is to either kill or aid the player of whichever game the other player decides to invade. While this mechanic has been carried over to Elden Ring, some players have taken to doing rather strange things once they invade another player’s game.

Since its release, Elden Ring fans have discovered several hidden details that shed light on the world’s backstory and lore. While some offer a reasonable explanation for in-game events, others are simply theories and guesswork. As an example, an Elden Ring player pointed out that Godrick has an extra finger on one hand. Now, another gamer shares a neat detail about one of the most well-known enemy types in Elden Ring....

But most Elden Ring players’ greatest challenge when exploring the Haligtree will likely be gravity because, as its name suggests, Miquella’s Haligtree tasks players with traversing the twisting branches of a huge tree along with the narrow pathways of a city named Elphael, which was built as a brace for this tree.

Developer FromSoftware has updated Elden Ring numerous times since the game’s launch earlier this year. These updates have addressed fan feedback, making balance changes as necessary while also adding new content in some cases. New Elden Ring quests, characters, and more have been added to the game as part of its various updates, though many are still holding out hope that a full-fledged DLC expansion may be on the way at some point in the near future....

The most popular Elden Ring messages, however, are the dirty ones. While players are limited in words they can say, creativity and drive have evidently won the day. In all fairness, the game has provided a lot of words that are open to lewd interpretations, such as “pickle,” “but,” “hole,” “rump,” and “finger.” RELATED: Summit1g’s Criticism Suggests Elden Ring’s Open World Could Be Divisive Elden Ring Messages - What Players Are Writing “Try fingers, but hole” is the most popular statement to see in the world of Elden Ring....

Miyakawa is intentionally vague about plans for the Elden Ring universe, but the implication seems to be that Elden Ring could expand into shows, movies, novels, comics, or other mediums. Elden Ring will appear “in a variety of other areas,” according to Miyakawa. RELATED: Incredible Elden Ring Trailer Shows Gameplay and Release Date...
