Kinda like Flame Peak and Mountaintops of the Giants, if Flame Peak wasn't just a respective section of the area, and had its own category in the warp point areas (if u press triangle while in the map, for those who dont know, it opens up all the grace points you have been to, but they are split into categories by area (and they have sections, like how Raya Lucaria is a dependent area, as it is only a big fraction of Liurnia), and you will see that Weeping Peninsula is just the huge, Southern point of Limgrave.

To be fair, multiplayer wins in terms of hourage. But Elden Ring inherently earned the expensive dlc pass.

"Elden Ring takes 50 hours to beat" Yeah like hell it does, I'm sitting here like 100 hours later Edit: I just mean this as a comment, not a correction. I know he said focusing only on main bosses but the average player doesn't do that so the playtime will probably be higher.

[@GunnerWolfe-ks9ds]

I'd advise spending less of your time running around on elden ring and more time worrying about what's going on in the world. Did you know a top security clearance Air force soldier set himself on fire, before this he states "I will not be complicit in genocide" As well as stating something along the lines of "I'm about to engage In an extreme act of protest, but compared to what palestinians are going through, it's not extreme at all" he's lit himself on Fire and yelled free palestine until the flames choked him and made him unable to speak. You ever see someone burn alive? Imagine your brothers and sisters, or your child. Yourself.

[@Weebobob]

Whats wrong with Fromsoft all their games are new every time they release with a completely new world and new set of characters and in alot of cases completely new gameplay, how are games like elden ring and sekiro so much alike that they can be compared to activison games which have a bad story besides for the old games and nigh on the exact same multiplayer, fromsoft makes some of the best games that I have ever played ​@herrfrau4162

[@kidkamando]

​​​​@@herrfrau4162 Only in terms of gameplay at most. They've been evolving in world design at the least. Dark Souls was Metroidvania, while Elden Ring is Open World. Even with the Soulslike gameplay, those are fundamentally different experiences. Same for Pokemon. Scarlet/Violet feels completely different to Emerald in terms of the world and exploration. Still more than CoD has done. So nah, still a W for FromSoft. Plus, FromSoft doesn't have microtransactions. Also, as an aside, why would they not continue to make Soulslikes? They invented the genre and repeated the success many times over, with multiple revisions and QoL improvements over the years. They only went back to Armored Core after more games started filling their niche. It'd be stupid not to capitalize on the monopoly of a popular genre. Plus, comparing Demon Souls, Sekiro, and Elden Ring is disingenuous to their gameplay systems, as they do have many fundamental differences (especially in terms of healing or Posture). They just share a high difficulty and a diverse array of boss fights.

[@skryonix357]

Miyazaki also said it would take 30 hours for the base game. Some people took over 100 hours to beat and they didn't even complete everything

[@jensenraylight8011]

yes, exactly, i saw this on reddit all the time, people boasting about finishing the game in 12-20 hours right after the game was released. when in reality it often realistically took 50+ hours, even 100+ hours, because people played the game while exploring and appreciating the world, try different crafting mechanics, etc while those 12+ Hours people, they play the game as if they're being chased by the Cops or Ghost or something. i'm sure they're skipping dialogues and running all the time in the game they wear that as a pride and had to boast around. like, they're not good enough to be a speedrunner
