Is it about the lack of a quest log?

That's literally the only thing I've seen.

I haven't see anyone else complain about the game at all

I likely wont play it but if the game is well made, people should be happy for the gamers who will get to experience and enjoy it. Rather than a developer sending out a trash and buggy game.

But that is 100% accurate. Elden Ring is literally Dark Souls 4 in a sandbox. You're delusional if you think otherwise.

With how you go around attacking Elden Ring in every topic i've looked at, I think you do illustrate my point pretty well, actually. For someone who isn't interested, the attention you're giving it makes it seem as though it murdered your family or something similarly severe.

Why so salty?

I agree with him too. And I probably wont play the game (havent played any of their games). Not saying this game or any game isnt without its flaws, but that statement is on point. It does represent a number of the population for game releases.

This picture conveniently ignores Bloodborne and Sekiro (and arguably Dark Souls 2) but to each their own I suppose.

Sekiro is at least fairly different from the usual Soulsborne game though.

Honestly the problem I think with an easy mode in these games is that the gameplay would devolve into button mashing. Imagine beating the game by just spamming R1 and facetanking everything, that's not the experience the devs want people to have of their games

It is though

Sekiro played nothing like Dark Souls, and Bloodborne was mechanically distinct as well

Dark Souls 3 came out in 2016, which means From hasn't put out a game in the style of Dark Souls in 6 years. Even if it weren't different enough to distinguish itself from Dark Souls (it is), you can't put it alongside companies who release very similar products yearly. It reeks of cope because people like games you don't

Ok for me, I HAD NO IDEA what Elden Ring was, so upon seeing it I was a little let down that it was in the same vein as Demon Souls. However, I think that From Software Learned from Armored Core and decided to give their Demon Souls series new titles to avoid the negative stigma associated with long running franchises

So wait, does Elden Ring have an easy mode?

Because here's the thing. I do think games should have easy modes, and games that feature easy modes are perfectly fine - anyone who bitches out a game for having an easy mode when their preferred difficulty balancing is still available is a dumb asshole.

On the other hand, developers who want to provide a specific level of challenge should be able to do so in accordance with their vision. If From Soft made a game with an easy mode, good for them. If they didn't, I respect that they had a vision and they stuck to it.

Imagine being the sort of dumb drooling fuck who downvotes a game for having an easy mode. Not for being unsatisfied with the difficulty balancing they prefer, but because a game dare ship with an easier gameplay mode.

"there is a lot" is only correct when it applies to something uncountable like "there is a lot of sand"

If it's countable (like people) then you don't use "is". [a lot of people] can be treated as a plural whereas [a lot of sand] can be treated as singular. that's why you would say "[a lot of people] have" instead of "[a lot of people] has"

and why you'd say "[a lot of sand] is" instead of "[a lot of sand] are"

Mixed and 95 rating.
People deserve a better product that isnt so terrible optimized with stuttering and freezing issues on above average rigs.
Honestly, I hope the console players are experiencing a solid performance.

FROM almost always has a rough launch despite how well received their games deliver overall. First Dark Souls had horrendous net code and broken scaling/spells in the beginning for example. Im on the bench till this smooths out but also nothing kills my mood more than another open world game.

@LostForest @IMNOTRAGED

No not really.

From software's games even within the Dark Souls trilogy play very different from each other. And this is someone who has also played yearly releases of call of duty.

The meme is disingenuous as it's trying to compare games that have a similar focus but are vastly different versus yearly reskins of Farcry, Assassin's Creed and Call of Duty. I'm not sure why Nintendo is listed there as their games are also pretty diverse and not lazily made (besides from Pokemon).
