I think I'm finally going to give it a go. The guide was right on time, thanks.

[@FawkesALot]

I doubt you’ll see this but thank you, this is one of the best and concise guides out there, I really appreciate ppl like you, this game is intimidating enough but this guide makes me feel like I can do this!

[@LuckyGhost]

@@FawkesALot you've got this, good luck!

[@Willy38134]

finally, someone who actually explains all the classes and builds to new players without throwing around what sounds like a whole other language to normal people, most guides "for new players" ive seen just say all of this stuff and expect you to know it already

[@janston34]

Bought the DLC, the only problem is I had never played a Souls game let alone ER. The fact that there’s no guide or “correct way” to play the game I definitely felt overwhelmed. But now I’m excited to have at least some understanding of what I’m getting into. Great guide!!

[@charleshughes2683]

Ah man I'm in the same situation, unlike other games, the non-linear play style and so many different tutorials makes it so hard to just "get on with it" 😂 Best of luck to you brother

[@007m10]

So you bougth the game + DLC without playing the base game? I don't follow the logic.

[@jioden9665]

@@007m10it’s cheaper to buy them together than seperate

[@007m10]

@@jioden9665 True that. My bad honey enjoy the game. Is just that i see many comments of confused buyers that spent over 100 on the game + deluxe + dlc + whatever and I start getting a feelling of how EA/Ubisoft/COD are still making big money.

[@Azex824]

Ive played the game without watching guides. Trust me you will learn everything along your adventure. Take your time no need to rush.

[@BeastDrivenMotivation]

I cant even begin to explain how grateful I am for this video and I haven't even watched it yet, but I can tell just from the first few moments of the video the way you are explaining every little thing that this is a true beginner guide.

[@wickedgaming9632]

in case you dont know, and for the people i know that dont, if you hold the item switch button(down on dpad for me) you will automatically go to the item in the first slot instead of cycling through

[@vortex_beast1585]

Thank you 😭

[@Woupsme]

You'll go to the item in the first slot. You could make that anything. But yes, the healing as default

[@josiahb.2117]

Thank you so much for this guide. I've been loving the early gameplay of eldrn ring and have actually been getting the most overwhelmed/frustrated/confused by the inventory management and key bindings of all things. This is a great guide and covers everything that other guides miss. Your thoroughness is much appreciated sir.

Thanks for watching! I hope you enjoy this massive project🙏 Be sure to share with your friends that are jumping back into Elden Ring, or jumping in for the first time!

[@infinityfabrik]

I've never played any souls-likes at all ever. I started this twice since it got released and both times lasted about 10 min after getting smashed into the ground by the big guy at the start. I love your guides, you explain things so well. Like, at about 40min you casually say to put a marker down, BUT you follow it up with how to and where to see the instructions on the HUD (I very often miss stuff like that cause I can get overwhelmed with new games throwing info at me... I guess I go info blind lol). I really appreciate those little things most people just gloss over. Thanks!

[@LuckyGhost]

My pleasure! I hope you get through the game this time, it's one of the all time greats!

[@kemgarrison9527]

I agree. I did the same thing. I'm super glad this guide is available.

[@anon7596]

Same bro. I played ER for about an hour when it came out. Died repeatedly, looked over at my roommate and asked "People think this is fun?" But after watching him beat it, I want to seriously give it shot this time.

[@LuckyGhost]

you got this!

[@joshuaholder6818]

Small note, gaol is the british spelling of jail, and pronounced the same, so its "ever jail" not "ever goal". It did not diminish an absolutely FANTASTIC guide, thank you!

[@thetonezonewithbillytrone8362]

Came here to say this and i am so glad you have already done it for me in such a respectful and eloquent way. Loved the guide as well, as a seasoned FromSoft player it bridged the gaps between ER and Bloodborne or Demon's Souls.

[@TheBobNoxious]

This is hands down the best guide for this game for new players. I’m a seasoned FromSoftware veteran and just let this play in the background to see if it would be a good reference point for new players or trying to get someone to give the game a try. Thanks for making this video.

[@coldfire2198]

I have played this game for some 50+ hours and still found things I wasn’t aware of in this guide- amazing guide or any and all players- well done

This is one of the best guides I have ever seen! I like how you break everything down in the simplest way possible making it easy to understand and super helpful! Awesome job!!!

[@Jack-Peters99]

Got into Elden Ring recently but needed some help so I didn't get lost or waste certain things along my play-through, been a long time since I've played a souls game. This guide is brilliant, thanks for the breakdown (can only imagine how long it took).

[@LuckyGhost]

Glad I could help!

[@RKDriver]

Great guide. So many beginners guides on YT just go into story progression basics and builds but not game mechanics. Well done.

[@LubbS2Spooge]

That was always my problem. I bought on release and never got past an "OP start". I'm throughly watching this guide and plan to restart tonight.

[@grantlewis2197]

So true, I did exactly that and got pretty confused about halfway thru limgrave

[@michaelbelle407]

What a well-rounded and comprehensive guide to this game. I was debating playing it due to it's complexity as I'm new to Souls-like games, but after watching this, I'm thinking I should give it a shot.

[@unicorngamerxd7781]

I'm literally in that same position rn where I'm thinking of buying it since it's so popular and hyped up but at the same time I've never played a souls like game before, and I'm worried I won't like it or just feel extremely overwhelmed with everything especially with the HUGE open world setting, the exploration, the difficulty and how there is just so much going on. So I gotta ask, did you end up playing it, and if you have... as someone who's new to this genre, how is it going so far?

[@c_l_e_v_e_r_]

This video had to take forever and a day to put together... coming back for the dlc and realized quickly I forgot a bunch and more. Thank you for the refresh

[@lother-bf5jq]

I watched tons of guide videos from youtube but nothing ever reach the level of yours.The best elden ring beginner guide on earth❤

[@ShadowWriter53]

Just the guide i needed. I'm returning to Elden Ring after an initial effort when it released which proved me right when i believed that i wouldn't progress too far. I am an old gamer and not really wired for this type of combat. However, i am at a stage of my gaming life where i'm looking for a world to explore, and combat where i can test what my real capabilities are, and after watching a few streams i have become really hooked on this game and want to see how far i can progress this time around. Your guide is an essential tool for me to help understand parts of the game which my aging brain may not initially connect with. So thank you for putting in the time on a video such as this one.

[@paulschneider6202]

That’s awesome. I used to only play sports games before Elden Ring and it was really daunting to start, but once I understood the game better it become one of the best games I ever played. Good luck!

[@ShadowWriter53]

Thank you Paul. I definitely feel i have come into the game this time with a much more relaxed mindset, which is normally how i like to engage with games anyway. Taking my time and enjoying the journey. First story boss down and in no rush for the next😁 Unlike you, i've never been able to adapt to sports games so huge admiration as in my eyes these take a different level of skill and focus. Appreciate your time.

@@dannygonsalez27 Dude holy shit you will absolutely not regret getting this game. It is astounding and honestly a beautiful game. Im nearly 200 hours in and now playing the game for a second time because it’s that good. Although, if you hate getting frustrated and stuck at some points than maybe it’s not for you, but the feeling after beating a tough boss or area is unmatched.

[@dannygonsalez27]

@@Deet0s one more question, which version should i buy, the first one or dlc. Soory that im a total n9ob here. Its all new for me and im dont see much games lately that gives me the vibe to plsy. And after lots of thoughts i decided to play ER.

[@Deet0s]

@@dannygonsalez27 Well, the DLC is an expansion of the first game, not it's own separate game. While Shadow of the Erdtree (the DLC) is really amazing as well, I think you should just try out the main game first to see if you like it. If you do end up liking Elden Ring though I do strongly recommend the DLC because it's really well done and super fun.

[@ColtA34]

I recently started a few weeks ago and still early Limgrave. If anything is too hard just explore elsewhere. I ended up in the area with the red sky and it’s supposed to be hard to encourage you to go elsewhere first. Hopefully you’re still sticking with it because I’ve been having a lot of fun!

I don't know why this kind of big games do not make properly tutorials. It feels embarrassing for new players and easy to quit. Best guide I've seen, feels like your mate is explaining you all the basics.

[@kaibeste7942]

Great overview for returning players. As a PC player, I also really struggled playing with mouse & keyboard (my preferred way of playing) even after toying with the keybinds. In the end, I just gave up and switched to a controller, and it made a big difference for me, the game flows so much better with it. Btw, Margit's shackle is another easy way to disable traps (and illusory walls). You can get it fairly early, and it has a long range.

Heck ya thank you!

[@Nautiklez]

Thanks for this very detailed video! A couple of additions to the mount basics that took me a while to find out. Right Button and Right Trigger both work to attack with your main weapon on the right side. Left Button and Left Trigger will also attack with your main weapon, but on your left side. Also, holding one of the triggers to charge a heavy attack while mounted will do some pretty cool heavy attacks that are different for each weapon. An easy way to dismount is L3. :)

[@morjuken05]

Hi Lucky Ghost, Evergoal is pronounced as "Ever jail" Here are some of my tips 1. There are too many weapons in this game. Pick one or two which will stick by your side for the rest of the game. Memorize the gap/distance that your weapon can cover. It is always better to use a familar weapon than a new one which you are not used to it. 2. You can loot caravan chest to find weapon inside 3. Do not be afraid to cheese difficult/unfair bosses. You can find plenty of guides on youtube 4. To prevent losing runes to bosses behind fog wall, quickly quit the game before dying. You will be outside of the fog wall the next game session. (Not sure if it has been nerfed?) 5. You can summon other players to help you with bosses/dungeons. If they keep shouting "hey", they are trying to get your attention to something. 6. Avoid Caelid at the start of the game. 7. Equip two weapons of the same class (For Ex: 2x curved sword) to "powerstance". Powerstancing will unlock new moves for your weapon. 8. Try most ash of war. You will be surprised that some of these ash of war are quite powerful. "Wild Strikes" and "Spinning Strikes" are quite powerful. I defeated the caelid tunnel magma wyrm using "spinning strikes".

[@LuckyGhost]

same here, can't wait!

[@stephstyles6717]

This is super helpful! My boyfriend tried explaining things but things didn’t stick too well & this guide is such a life saver !

[@LuckyGhost]

Totally understandable, this game is massive! Glad I could help, cheers!

I just started playing Elden Ring last night. The message and the bloodstains had me confused but after 30 minutes of playing I noticed that they're extremely helpful.

[@dannygonsalez27]

Yai i have a question,im a fiest time ever beginning with a soulslike game and im a bit afraid..but what version of ER did you buy...the DLC or the first original version. Im looking to buy it but wNt to know which to buy.

[@VI_Yai_iV]

@@dannygonsalez27 I just bought the original version, I was going to buy the DLC too, but the base even the base game takes a while and has lots of things you can do. I would recommend just getting the base game unless you see a good deal to get the DLC as well

[@PolkaPig578]

This is actually such high quality. Good job man!

[@LuckyGhost]

thanks brother!

[@JohnBeattie_]

Thank you! I want to get back into it, never finished the game and it’s been a year so I forget almost everything lol. This will be a good watch.

[@LuckyGhost]

Any time! Good luck!

[@kn0bhe4d]

Absolutely great video and beginner guide for someone like me who just bought the game and wants to jump in. As a random note though, gaol is pronounced jail, so they're Everjails and not Evergoals.

[@TeachnStrawbs]

Great job, so far the game is in my pile of shame but am planning on it soon. This is very helpful!

[@coltonmaggard2557]

Best guide for any game I’ve seen bro great job man

[@jbluna2]

Yo anyone new (I’m 50 hours in and still consider myself new) just grind and grind the same areas you find easy until you’re able to level up. Once you get the mechanics down through the grind feel free to explore. That’s how I did it and it made it infinitely easier. That being said, at level 56 I still get bodied by certain bosses so don’t get discouraged.

[@glitchparallax4215]

Yoo, God bless you. I was looking for a more up to date guide for beginners, and this vid was one. I just ordered my PS5, and EldenRing that will be coming this Friday, so I am saving this video until then.

[@markg6573]

I've had this game since the reviews started pouring in. Installed it, and never played it. I guess I was expecting Dark Souls 3 difficulty or something. I didn't care to "GetGud" OR get my ass handed to me. Thank you for this video. I think I'll fire it up and give it a go. It certainly sounds much more manageable than I was expecting.

[@dirtypaws17]

Also started a couple days ago, was delaying playing this for so long. Now I'm 30 hours in, with plenty guides and take it slowly, it's rewardful :D Can be overwhelming, but exploring is also a nice process, so I actually enjoying it

[@SHMlKE]

My first playthrough I just went from boss to boss and gave up. My buddy said to wonder around more and it'll be much easier and how the game was meant to be played. About to try again from scratch. Hope this time is better 😅

[@jackmg]

Jesus these are pure pro tips! Thanks Lucky 1:37:32

[@DanielRodrigues-qr2sd]

Damn, the timing for this video is pretty late. If you put this out around the time the game released this would have millions of views no doubt. Really well made video. I love the time stamps.👍👍👍

[@LuckyGhost]

haha don't count this puppy out yet! surely the algorithm will pick it up and share it :)) (please god please) cheers!

[@barista7105]

Thank you for this, finally I found a good, layman terms and thorough tutorial which is very useful

[@ghastlydaghoul]

After I leveled up a bit I beat the first horseman while on my horse. You stick to him on the right rear and don't let any space form and just wail on him. He only hit me once.

[@InfiniteMonkees]

Great video. My first souls game and def needed some guidance

[@LuckyGhost]

Glad to hear it!

[@jakenicholson5214]

Appreciate the rundown. 👌🏻

[@DNG316]

Thank you for this video, I just grabbed the game cause all my friends told me to get it, and I wanted some insight before I started even though I already am a souls game player ❤

[@lucci9280]

I just wanna thank you so much, I just got the game and I watched this and the OP start video and it helped immensely

[@LuckyGhost]

Awesome! So glad to hear it!

[@chilledouttt6845]

1st time souls player, this games so random it's great. Hey a treasure chest *gets teleported to instadeath mine* Hey an occult*smaug enters the chat* Games hard but really rewarding once u "get it" :) ty for the guide.

[@guatles6762]

This is Amazing thank you!

[@LuckyGhost]

So glad you enjoyed it!

[@iudus]

Great guide for all the systems in the game that can be hard to understand when starting out, thanks Lucky!

[@CozyMarsh]

Lost all my saved data on 2 characters i had. Needed a refresher because i wanted to play again. Thanks :]

[@turntapeover5749]

Always start with the stonesword key and run to get the Erdtree favor talisman right away.

[@diptangshuman3265]

Holy shit, this is such a good guide. Many of the things I learnt here I didn't even know and I've completed the base game 4 times. Subscribed!

[@kenny.m.olsen95]

Thanks. I am once again trying to get into this game. Maybe this time is the time.

[@gerald216]

Elden ring is the first souls game I actually leveled vigor past 20ish. In every other game I always felt like having more damage was better than that one or two extra hits worth of life. I played all the way up to the Margit fight at the erdtree bashing my god damn head against a wall my first playthrough getting one or two shot by literally everything. Reminded me of going through star ocean 2 and 3 without realizing there was a whole level up system for stats besides just the xp lol

[@deliciouserest]

Just bought the game about to try it for the first time! Looking forwards to your next video about the OP start.

[@LuckyGhost]

Will be posted by tomorrow morning! (Maybe even tonight if all goes well)

[@deliciouserest]

@@LuckyGhost perfect timing I have tomorrow off to play and level! :) appreciate your hard work.

[@james-kn8lm]

Thankyou for the video. As a brand new elden ring player I found this brilliantly helpful

[@LuckyGhost]

Great to hear!

[@ETHANOB-pi3oz]

[@LuckyGhost]

Thanks brother!

[@josephschultz1880]

Thinking about getting back in to Elden Ring. This guide will help a ton!

[@LuckyGhost]

Heck ya brother, enjoy!

[@retro2485]
