Game Impressions (Elden Ring)

In general, I passed this game. Mixed impressions. At first I really liked it, but at first the locations were beautiful. And in the end, something is already tired of dull ruins or even some kind of dirty-gloomy locations, as well as battles with vile shit-demons. No, the world itself is of course huge and interesting, full of content, the combat, as in previous games, is varied and well-designed, although not always convenient, especially because of the camera and crooked targeting. But there is variety and room for experimentation, as well as the opportunity to choose your own style. Huge selection of weapons and spells.
But the game really lacks more aesthetics, Miyazaki has some kind of fetish for the foul-disgusting-looking mobs and creepy ugly old women.
And, there is still not enough beautiful armor in the game, basically all sorts of homeless cast-offs, and something beautiful and adequate can be found far from immediately, or even at the end of the game.
Here's another horse - for some reason a dull-looking shabby nag, although it was possible to make an epic horse and different skins to choose from.
But, despite all the minuses, the game turned out to be very interesting and intense, I passed it with pleasure. A lot of attention was paid to the study of various details and aspects of the gameplay and plot.
Although I'm in no hurry with the second playthrough, I still played 113 hours, it's time to take a break from these battles with shit demons. Is it worth waiting for the release of all DLS, then you can play again.

Has anyone understood and can explain (from the point of view of the lore of the game) why Rennie the Witch has one eye closed??? Or is it such a thing - a reference to the "All-seeing eye" of big brother ???-)))

So Melina has one eye closed. Although I looked at YouTube different endings - in her Chaos ending, exactly the eye that is usually closed is open, and the other is closed, which is usually open)
Why is that - well, the authors of the game are strange people, so there are enough oddities in the game.

The Evil Spirit of Yambuya
is generally a doll, and not the witch herself, the eye is closed from the side of the "puppeteer", it can be assumed that these are just spells that allow her to control and nothing more. And that's why Melina has one eye closed, that really seemed interesting

Renny and Melina have their eyes closed so that Sir Gideon the All-Knowing does not know everything, looking through their eyes. There are no proofs, but you hold on) Spoiler Yes,

Hidetaka most likely has a fetish for the eyes and the blind. This has been clear since the days of Bloodyck.

Didn't even play 1 second. Stupidly, I could not immediately understand how to even exit the video settings menu into the general one. I agree in advance with everyone who thinks that I'm a fool. Only the pleasure of the game cannot be obtained every time by poking at random in the hope of hitting the right button. Fuck those ports. Fat minus immediately.

Well, yes, if you don't have enough mind and motivation to understand the details a little, then yes - play mobile games, you don't have to think at all - they play themselves, you just donate.

I'm buying a finished product! And I wish you, dear, the next time you want sausages for a sandwich, buy a pig, slaughter, process, cook sausage and only then use it. You have the same mind and motivation sea!. And I think that this is just a low-quality product, and the seller did not care about the buyer.

Fedmoped
I agree with you!
Only the "finished product" must be able to be used, and if you slurp soup with a fork or knife, then there is nothing to blame on the cook!

luess
Absolutely agree with you, I slurp with a fork and knife. And what to do? The soup was poured into a flat plate for the second course. This is what a crappy attachment port looks like on a PC.)

I don’t know how it goes for you, I couldn’t stand it for more than 20 or 30 hours, boring, boring stuffiness, where everything is the same, I’m from Cyberpunk, which is much easier in terms of combat, but more atmospheric due to the environment, I got more buzz, but it’s just some kind of a hellish crypt where you need to screw up the combat, with these dodges, windows for hitting, I didn’t like it at all, because there is no pleasure, you don’t need to talk about the world, it’s not the world, it’s just locks to fill the hours of gameplay with something, it’s not connected it makes no sense at all, because there is no point in the game

Fedmoped
)) I appreciate the sense of humor.

IMHO, the main disadvantage of the game is the open world. The developers were unable to fill it with normal content, there are only self-repetitions around: the same dungeons, the same bosses. Giant empty locations with nothing in them. In the second half of the game, I constantly caught myself thinking that I was wasting a lot of time going nowhere. The insane duration of the game discourages any desire to replay.
Otherwise, everything is fine: nice design, good animations, there is a spirit of exploration. But personally for me because of the fucking length of the game DS3 > Elden Ring.

This is where my impressions of the game deteriorated.

I hate that narrow-eyed freak, the son of a monkey. Everything was going well, but stupid Hidetaka found where to crap himself and again inserted such a moment into his filthy game. Damn you, mindless creature.

Chigibam
Agree 100 %

yo my ... boys, does this toy have an end at all or is it endless?
I feel that in the section of my unfinished games, next to the fallout and skyrim, the elden ring icon will appear ...

hello
Why are Foul and Sky impassable to you? Stomp on the plot - here's the endgame for you ...
After the giants, Yelda quit - dozens of open tabs just pissed me off ... I'm used to high-quality games and I'm not a game-masochist by nature. Foul and Sky - foreva, and Yelda - for an amateur.

Wing42
So the legendary sword master Hidetaka defeated you to the edge))) Eh... I went through this masochism the other day and after the last four final bosses, especially after Godfrey, I don’t want to return to the game!!!! For this is a hot fart, swearing at the whole house, spilled beer, prayers to all the gods, curses to the government of the Russian Federation, questions to the cat - FOR what the hell do I have such a fate in this game, beating myself with my fists on my chest, threats in Hidetaka's thoughts)))) ) When the credits rolled, I did not even exit the game correctly, but pressed the reset button on the case. I have never had such BDSM gaming before!!!!

I'll do my part too. The open world in Souls Like is unnecessary crap. For the time being, it is interesting to explore it, but after 30 hours of the game (and it took me 65 hours to complete the entire passage), I wanted to make myself hara-kiri, I prayed that the game would finally end, but it kept going on and on, and this is me without guides passed. Without quests, without interesting stories, characters and dialogues, playing open world games for a long time is not very interesting, perhaps it would be more fun to play with pauses for a couple of days, but if you take long breaks, you forget where and where you went, because what or there are no markers and directions, you just put your own marks, in the end even Sekiro and Bloodborn taken together did not seem so stuffy. Unfortunately, I do not have so much time to play only one game, maybe that's why I have such a collapse in the anus. And so this is Dark Souls 4 with horses and a booth on a huge map, with repetitive bosses, sometimes imbecile mobs that sometimes surpass bosses, a down-and-out camera stuck in columns or in the ass of a huge boss (this is apparently the standard of quality for "Froms") and dragons. Special thanks to that crooked-ass daughter of the flying monkey, who gave Malenia the ability to suck out life and screwed some kind of skin into the game as many as 4 or 5 times repeated bosses of the Apostles, especially low bow to his idea, at the end of the game, insert these two rear-wheel-drive chuhans at the same time, these thick and thin played on my ass worse than Malenia, after them the subsequent Godfrey, Radan and Elden's Beast are so, armless invalids. Overall my score is 28 male genitals in my ass from Hidetaka out of 10. with repetitive bosses, sometimes imbecile mobs that sometimes outperform bosses, a down-and-out camera stuck in columns or in the ass of a huge boss (this seems to be the quality standard for Fromes) and dragons.

You just don't know how to play. And in 65 hours, you could hardly pump normally and explore everything, so it was hard for you.
It took me 113 hours to complete the first playthrough, and the second time around, I missed something in the study.
The second time, the study goes faster, because I already know where to go and what to do, but still it’s already more than 50 hours.
If it’s difficult for you, then it’s badly pumped, I didn’t get the norms for weapons, I didn’t make an intelligent build, I didn’t get and didn’t pump intelligent conscription spirits.
One Tychea is capable of solo boss kills while the player is watching.
