Elden Ring truly proved that FromSoftware is incapable of comprehending what their true fans enjoyed about their soulsborne games. The pattern is clear now more than ever, any FromSoftware project that has Yui Tanimura involved in anyway, will be either mediocre or garbage. Hidetaka Miyazaki said that with Elden Ring "he had to delegate things to others more than usual" and it shows. Elden Ring is not a good soulsborne game, it is one of the worst, if not the worst:
>Open world causes a lot of padding and time wasting by just running around on your mount looking for the good parts.
>Open world completely kills replay value, because of all the down time traveling in the open world has.
>Open world forced them to add a mount and thus mounted combat, which is far inferior to the traditional unmounted combat. Even FromSoftware understood this and disabled mounts in multi-player.
>Open world ruins the traditional progression of difficulty in zones and especially boss fights, the bosses are either too hard because you are underleveld or too easy because you are overleveld, it is an unrefined and unfocused mediocre experience.
>Spirit ashe summon system casualizes the entire game, it is literally an EASY MODE that completely breaks the game and boss AI. Some of the spirit ashe summons at +10 (mimic/tiche) can solo bosses with you just standing there and watching, doing nothing else. Unlike traditional summons, spirit ashe summons do not give the boss a boost in HP and stats.
>Boss Fight experience has taken a significant drop in quality. Sekiro, Bloodborne and even Dark Souls 3 offer superior boss fight experiences.

Elden Ring outsold all previous FromSoftware soulsborne games COMBINED, it is literally over for FromSoftware ARPGs as we know them. All future ARPG projects by FromSoftware will feature an open world of some sort.

Thank God I pirated Elden Ring and didn't waste money on it.

Still playing it and a lot still does too.
It’s not dead.
You are free to play more cringe games if you are done with it.

Why do Any Forumstards keep calling this game open world?
Do you morons even know what open world is?
I do not disagree that Elden ring is a sandbox game, but for the entirety of Elden Ring you travel through corridors without conventional walls. Exploration is always blocked by ravines, huge or small cliffs you can't go past unless you take a lift or teleport, entire areas inaccessible without progressing thorugh the story etc.
The sense of scale existing only because you can see in the distance.
Elden Ring is as much of an open world game as Crysis was.

LMAO bloodborne felt like a b-team dark souls if i ever played one

Isn't Starfield coming out this year?

>Todd
It's going to be a simplified buggy piece of shit, user.

So was Skyrim. We're talking "big" releases not good releases

I thought that was delayed

It would be kino if Skyrim would be playable on computers in Starfield.

>dead
>more players on steam than DS3 had on day1

of course it is open world, dude. even official manuals and reviews describe it as open world

I don't understand the complaint that ER has open world padding? Compared to every other open world it's the most content-dense and has the least padding. The game turned out a lot better than most people expected, gameplay and progression was good, stop trying to look for problems where there aren't any.

schizo is spamming his copypasta everywhere for months, ignore him

Sekiro is def not S, DS1 is S and ER is at least A. What a retarded pic.
