    hopefully we'll see something from E3 beyond the logo, but the concept of pairing GRRMartin with From is the greatest sounding thing ever on paper...

    And hopefully GRRM will some day finish writing a book again, but I digress...

    Enemy designs look fantastic here...looking forward to this for sure. Crazy how Elden Ring will run on the same engine Fromsoftware has been using since the PS3 days like Sekiro and such. Still love the way studios can improve on them over the years and can make quality stuff.

    I bought Dark Souls III last winter (first FromSoftware game I ever played) and poured some SERIOUS time into that game, playing with anywhere between 2 and 7 or 8 other friends on a daily (well, nightly) basis. Winter in Minnesota during COVID quarantine = the perfect time for me and a bunch of my friends to get sucked into a game like that. Needless to say, we are all super pumped about picking this game up and devoting much of this coming winter to playing it online. Only thing that sucks is that PS5 shortages are supposed to continue "well into 2022," meaning that we'll have to play this awesome new game on our PS4s with graphics that are less impressive than what's shown in the amazing reveal trailer posted above. I'm still excited, but I really wish there weren't so many fucking greedy asshole scalpers using bots to scoop up all of the PS5s to dump onto eBay at excessive markups.

    I don’t think I could be this excited for a game. I hope the game isn’t as challenging as sekiro because the game got kind of annoying even though I love it’s just so insufferable to play a boss for a week. The music kind of had a Gwen sound to it, and smou looks like he will be in the game with artorias

    Sekiro was difficult to the point where it got more stressful than fun. Some end game challenges felt sadistic. But yeah, I’m beyond excited for Elden Ring

    Agreed. I thought about replaying it, but I remembered all of the parts that I absolutely hated playing through and ruled against it.

    I love Fromsoft games, but holy cow do they reuse assets all of the time.

    From what i can gather in the beta from people that have had a chance to play...this might just be the best FromSoft have done, seem's to incorporate everything from the 3 Dark Souls, Bloodborne and Sekrio. Some of the builds in this will be nuts!

    I like to think of it as a motif

    Either way, whatever gets Elden Ring out on a schedule. I will definitely take a bunch of reused assets if it cuts the dev time in half.

    Also, just to say, this is looking amazing. I have to finish FF7R and FF14 Endwalker asap, and I don't see myself making the time. All I know is I plan to boot Elden Ring up the second the download is complete, and I intend to dive in until I need to sleep.

    Was sorta hoping it was just 7/10 type stuff tbh haha. I don't have the time to devote to this but it's gonna kill me to not play it day one. Fuck.

    Hahaa, yea the reviews are certainly not helping. With Horizon coming out, along with Sifu and countless others, I'll have to put some devotion into one game for the time being. Elden Ring seems to be at the top of the list so far.

    yeah... this is gonna be one of the best games ever made. Currently sitting at 97% on Metacritic.

    I'm getting real close to buying this for the PC. If it wasn't for the slight bit of Souls difficulty that I keep reading about I would be a lock. My wife is replaying Skyrim on the switch and I feel like this would be a good step up from that.
