This is such a great concept, I don't know why people are complaining. You wouldn't have gotten a new souls anyway so this fills the void quite nicely and, allows for a lot of experimentation like never before in souls games due to starting new builds all the time.

[@gu3z185]

The only thing I don't like is the enemy reuse. Having all unique enemies would be better, even if there are less. Or at least don't reuse bosses from Dark Souls, that's absolutely baffling to me that they took one of the most iconic bosses and made him an ER miniboss

Exactly. Here's a hot take: ER2 is very unlikely as ER's story was complete in the game (same with Bloodborne) I'll gladly take Nightreign to scratch that itch and see them try to mix up the FromSoft formula.

[@DerekT4708]

@@soulinker3895 yeah i 100% agree, i wouldnt be surprised if we get er2 but realistically i think people shouldnt expect it. the stroy was wrapped up pretty well with the first er so unless its a prequel it wouldnt make too much sense.

[@Willy_Warmer]

@@soulinker3895 I disagree that ER was complete. There's a lot of stuff that can happen. Pretty much all their endings are open ended. Not that I disagree ER2 is unlikely, because while they could definetly add to the story, they'd be forced pretty much to appropraite one ending as canon and the rest as not, since it's a very hard task to curate a game to allow someone to play through the continuation of seven different plot lines.

False. Elden Ring is best played solo until you've finished your 120-150 build and then using that character to co-op with others and duel in the arena while testing different playstyles your build can support in order to plan the next character to blow 500 hours of life time on.

The closest I've ever seen another franchise pull this self universe fuckery is hyrule warriors. I think if the game is fun and is done well I won't mind at all.

[@gaelgarcia2547]

FS quality hasn’t waned for a decade plus. The success of recent games has allowed the studio to take some creative risks, nothing wrong with that.

[@Frogorius]

If I remember correctly its similar to ds2 with testing different things to see what players like and what works. Alongside that since Miyazaki isn't working on it is safe to assume he's working on something bigger while another director is gaining experience from working on this. 🙂

[@TheUltimateMachineGod]

@@Frogorius Yes!!! FINALLY!!! THANK YOU!!! I've been saying this sort of thing for years about DS2. That game for as experimental as it was, was pivitol to the future development of Souls games. This spinoff title will be no different. Clearly what they want to experiment more with is CO-OP gameplay. Specifically how to make Co-op gameplay challenging and fun for all players without completely dogwalking a boss by abusing the single minded AI. Hopefully this adresses those concerns drastically.

[@YoTizzler]

Firstly I’m extremely excited. But I also wonder if this was Miyazaki’s idea or what he wanted or if it was something that he HAD to agree to as a part of whatever Elden ring deals they have set up. Just feels so different from the usual design philosophy

[@theunderdog9353]

The fact that you can play both co-op and singleplayer is crazy. I can't wait

[@blaze8097]

They gotta add a duo mode Me and my bro don't need a rando ruining everything.

[@Fatalis517]

I mean I alrrady saw Nameless King and Firekeeper. But i only now noticed we also have Centipe Demon back

[@unknownvanguard8749]

There was also one of Duke's Dear Freja's Spiders at one point.

[@Kamawan0]

Duke's Dear Freja is in there as well. They're re-using so many assets that it's not making me want to suddenly stop playing the older games.

[@DarkAsDeath]

Weirdly enough im excited to fight centipede demon on a more fast paced souls game since ds1. He might be an absolute menace.

[@sreekesh23]

The real question is can we still kill that stupid bird for runes

You know it’s going to be good when Tristan narrating and reviewing

[@Kayla-real66]

😅Sie ist vielleicht einfach die bescheidenste und herzerwärmendste Person, die es gibt❤️❤️❤️☺️

[@Keonoxos]

I appreciate that the game allows solo play, but I'll be really disappointed if there’s no cross-play. My friends all have PlayStations, and I have a PC. I was fine playing the single-player mode on my own because I enjoy the challenge, so not being able to play online with friends wasn’t a big deal. But this game seems designed for multiplayer. Elden Ring is my favorite game, and since the original game and DLC don’t offer cross-play, I'm worried and a bit hesitant to dive in since I don’t have any friends that have a PC to play it with.

[@bl00dy1ng]

This is a worry of mine too. I’m literally the opposite of you, all my friends play PC and I play ps5 lol

[@AbednegoKurio]

The coop stuff may not be everyone's cup of tea but this makes me hopeful that their next full game will have more fast paced and dynamic combat/exploration like this. Sekiro but with even more combos and the usual RPG system would be the dream game for me.

[@Terron29]

Im the opposite lol I want them to slow it down, bring it back to the slower tense exploration of the earlier souls games. I typically aint into fast paced action games at all like ninja gaiden, nier automata, dmc or bayonetta and from seem to be heading more and more in that pure action direction. Its the slow exploration with the shield up hoping you dont get jumped while exploring worn down castles that is my fave aspect of froms souls games :) Demons souls and dark souls were perfect for me.

[@AndryNuts]

​@@Terron29well, we can hope they keep making both kind of games

[@AbednegoKurio]

@@Terron29 I think the problem for something like Nier for me os that the combat is fast paces without much depth it's basically a bunch of button mashing. There are a lot of combos without much reason to use then and low enemy variety. Fast paced isn't good by itself.

[@tristanward9937]

This is what I'm hoping. They really need to change up combat.

[@yeahnahmate7]

​@@AbednegoKurioit's button mashing if you only spam one button lol, personal issue

[@SentinalSlice]

I’m a bit disappointed that it’s a rogue like and not a fully explorable map, but I’m really excited for the other stuff. Also, I’m sure the modders will be able to easily rip the assets straight out of this Elden Ring and put them in the older Elden Ring. Since they have the same base.

[@LucaHard-e6m]

Damn never thought about this, nameless I’m actual Elden ring gonna be so gas

[@Jozz_hs]

It will be hard since here I can't create your character

[@minh7320]

​@@KimJungGooner from the interview with IGN and the director, it looks like you can purchase skin, color tone swap for characters using Murk. Not sure where you earn Murk from though as they did not clarify that part. But rest assure they did say no micro-trans, no live service related stuff so no battle pass.

[@gu3z185]

Wouldn't really make sense to choose your armor in a roguelike

[@KimJungGooner]

@@minh7320 Well, apparently u get some kind of currency when you beat a run or even if u fail, so I'm guessing that's what Murk is.

[@KimJungGooner]

@@gu3z185 Yea, but these games are all about the Fashion Souls. I literally didn't play Sekiro bc I couldn't play Dress Up with my character.

[@Esty770]

Hmmm. Love Elden Ring but pretty skeptical about this type of play - doesn’t sound like the souls that i love

[@aryiudoppelganger]

[@greatcoldemptiness]

Because it's not the Souls you love, this is just them trying something different with a side project in between their big projects.

[@filipesaul8435]

Hyped as fuck If Miyazaki approved of it, then it sure as hell is going to be good. Sekiro is my favourite game in the series, so if I see no fall damage + fast paced combat + parry, then fuck yeah The only people not hyped by this are the self appointed "true fans" of the fromsoftware circle jerk fanclub.

[@corpsehall6776]

would’ve been great to hear they added the entire original game now playable in coop too

Sadly as a ps5 player (my pc is outdated).. a seamless co-op of the original game is all iv ever wanted

I just hope the solo experience will be as polished as the squad experience

[@raymond241]

Pretty sure the squad experience would be more buggy lol

[@maartenbondt9600]

@ probably xD but they probably also put more time into the difficultly scaling and items etc. for the multiplayer

@@maartenbondt9600 I imagine bosses like the Cerberus where the split into 3 could get pretty rough solo unless there is scaling

There’s only one more thing FromSoft could possibly do to make Elden Ring more perfect… permanent multiplayer, where friends can stay in your world even after beating a boss instead of having to resummoning them… or giving the Tarnished an AC.

Sounds cool for people who aren't souls fans. As a hardcore souls veteran, this doesn't appeal to me at all. The lack of making your own character and build crafting just kills it for me, the survival and rogue elements seem weird in a souls setting, and I fundamentally hate any "select a hero" style of game. I have no doubt the game will be developed well and polished, but this seems more like an experiment than anything substantial. Hope everyone who plays it enjoys it.👍

[@JohnWilliams-cr2sz]

I am so stoked for this game! I just hope I can find and convince a couple of friends to play with me. And while its not live service game, I do wonder if they have plans for more content to add on as it goes. New bosses, areas, weapons, etc.
