Depending on the weapon, it might take different materials to upgrade it that the player can find around the map, with boss weapons, weapons that the boss uses, having more rare items but requiring fewer upgrades. The game offers different environments on the map, so players can find areas that range from lava to snow in a way that makes sense.Īlthough the map is filled with enemies the game gives a hub area to take a break where a blacksmith can upgrade weapons. Scattered across the map, players can find dungeons, caravans, forts and NPCs that all give useful items that are easy to miss. Speaking of the world, the map in Elden Ring is massive. Paying close attention to the characters throughout the story adds a more rewarding experience for those who want to be immersed in the world that the creators have built.
The way the developers, FromSoftware, tell the story through item descriptions instead of giving necessary information directly to people makes the story seem incomplete despite being detailed, which is not a problem, but when they are confused about their own motivation of collecting the shattered pieces of the Elden Ring and fixing it, it affects the overall experience of the game since it seems nonsensical.ĭespite the issues with how the story is told, FromSoftware created characters like the black smith who starts out as prisoner with no self worth until he finds a protégé who lets him feel like he’s worth something but as the game continues he loses his memory and forgets all about her. The player is not forced to do this as there are at least six different endings, based on which non-player character (NPC) quests the player completes by the end of the story.Īlthough Elden Ring’s appeal comes from its gameplay, the story is also important. It also created the Erdtree, which is the area people are attempting to get to by the end of the game in order to restore the Elden Ring after it shattered by becoming a vessel for it. The Elden Ring is the most powerful object in the world of the game, keeping concepts such as life and death in order and holding the ability to resurrect the main character and most enemies. This incredible game had high expectations that it ended up meeting and, in some cases, exceeding. A world of giants, dragons and demigods all stand in the way of the Tarnished, the player who seeks to restore the Elden Ring.Īnnounced on June 12, 2019, Elden Ring won eight awards including Most Anticipated Game of the Year before its release on Feb.
