Empty?! What does it mean empty open world?! I felt it absolutely crowded with enemies, animals, sources to gather, npcs, caves, shortcuts, hidden treasures ..For me it was anything but empty. I know we are experiencing things differently but this is false.
@nessisonett just finished couple of minutes ago and was absolutely smooth and fine for me in quality mode. And yes I can compare it to the first day performance which was around 30fps I guess. My eyes are quite sensitive so I couldn't play that way I switched to performance mode. However yesterday and today was absolutely fine in quality mode.
But that's fine I don't want to convince you or anyone I'm just telling what I experienced and I don't say that was perfect. I agree with you they need to improve and stabilize the framerate and I hope they will
The game is amazing by the way hardly wait to play it in February
@Reeneman @BloodEagle Just finished my session in Beta. I played in quality mode on PS5 today and the experience was absolutely smooth. Don't know the framerate but it should've been around 45-50. Definitely an improvement as on my first run yesterday was a bit bumpy . Honestly I didn't felt a big difference in framerate between quality and performance mode today.
@Integrity ok I'll try that. I tried with sword melee. Honestly I never tried magic in FromSoft games always preferred melee characters. Maybe Elden Ring will be the exception.
Hey guys I've just got my few hours playing Elden Ring and I must say it's going to be amazing. The atmosphere is just perfect. It's like Dark Souls but more than that. It's more fresh and more lively. And it seems it's going to be huge. I think I've already love this game. It's gonna be hard as hell so you need to level up ( you collect runes not souls here) , grind, farm but that's how it goes. I meet my first mini boss early but i had no chance against him. Maybe tomorrow...
@Skywalker1080p I've ordered both the collector's edition and launch edition on Amazon because they don't take money until release day. What about Game Collection? I never pre-ordered anything from them probably I should as they are the cheapest in UK I guess
@WanderingBullet yeah it seems if you order from Bandai Namco store you'll get a steelbook. However on Amazon UK there's no steelbook with Launch edition. Maybe it's a store exclusive? I'm a bit confused
No we have already too many. I really don't want see the ps5 generation is nothing more than superhero games. Enough is enough. Though i'm afraid we will get one or two in every single year
" and pricey collector's edition don't have a disc" wich is a shame as I'm preferring physical over digital but as a crossgen title it is understandable. They didn't want to release 4 different collector's editions ( Regalla for PS4 and PS5 and Collector's ed. for PS4 and PS5) instead they release one each with a code for BOTH platform! (Digital code : Full game for PS4â„¢ and PS5â„¢ included).
That's a shame but not a criminal offence against gamers although i always buy physical
Also Regalla Edition sold out in an hour yesterday an Collector's Ed is best selling on vendor site.
I'm not defending Sony i understand everyone's complain but these are the facts
oh no. Just pre-ordered the physical copy on PS5 and it comes in a "later date"...why? I thought they release both edition at the same time. So i need to buy the game twice if i want to play it on release date:(
Physical games will always have its audience especially older gamers like me, those who likes to own their games not streaming them. Also there is the resell value which is simply just doesn't exist on digital games. Collecting games if you can afford is also an important factor. I rarely buy digital games, it's just not worth it for me. My friends are the same, they all have nice collection too. So i think/hope they won't disappear in the near future
@Olmaz for me yes it is. it's a very underrated game though the prologue was a bit too old-fashioned and janky that's true. You just need to get through the prologue and then the game become fantastic, the story opens up. I think the visuals will be amazing in 4k . If you like single player story driven rpg then do not hesitate give it a go.
yes i'm going to pay for the upgraded physical Gold edition as it comes with a new story dlc alongside. I'm happy to play it through once more with improved visuals. Does anyone know when the physical copy of this come out as i've already pre-ordered it?
@MetalGear_Yoshi i don't know man...i really enjoyed this game and I'm glad it has a PS5 upgrade alongside with a big expansion. For me it's one of an underrated gems out there. But we're different
hey guys is the game enjoyable in solo as i intend to play it on my own? I'm so interested in this one but i fear it's too hard or difficult to play solo as it was designed for co-op?
@2cents yes it seems a bit short. I haven't played yet but the "most people completed within 8-10 hours" means at least 20 hours for me. I like just wondering around not rushing anything. I'll jump on to this tomorrow and will see. But yeah i would prefer a longer campaign too
@Uromastryx wow...! Well I would say it's a good news but that means I need to change my approach to the game. Probably i need to complete the main storyline first then do the events and mysteries and other bits
@Uromastryx @PaperAlien Ok thanks I'll do them then. I'm really enjoying the game so far just sometimes i feel it's too big and i just want to finish before Resident evil village come out which seems hopeless. I put exatly 100 hours into it and i am still at about to fight with Ivvar. Please tell me I am halfway through at least:)
@PaperAlien please tell me those anomalies are not required to complete the game! I skipped them every time I saw one..they are just dragging me out of the story i hate them
@GamingVeteran totally agree. Especially because you (still) have the chance to buy a physical copy of the game, play it, and if you don't like it just sell it. Probably you're going to lose 5-10 pounds/dollars but that's it. It's not that hard.
I won't judge and I'm not on any side but I understand where is this guy coming from. I read too many comments in the past like "ohh this game looks promising or/and amazing I'll definitely buy on a sale" So that's how a lot of people start with. Gaming is not a cheap hobby as it was mentioned above. Never been and never will be. Thought i understand many people just can't afford to buy full price games and that's fine for me but there are two sides of the coin. I think if you can afford it and you're interested in a game, the best way to show your support is buying a game around launch.
Personally i don't bother too much of buggy starts because they are usually being fixed after lunch with some patches ( not like Cyberpunk but that's a different story) So keep peace guys and try to understand both sides.
@The_New_Butler that's true but I think we need to wait a bit to have true next gen games. These games had been in development for years and both for last and next gen consoles. The true next gen experience comes later i think. Companies are developing new graphical engines designed for next gen consoles. For example Unreal Engine 5 ( which is designed for PS5) will be available this year for the studios and so on. So i would say we need to wait 2-3 years to have the full experience. That's how i see the things but I understand what you are saying.
4k 45fps with raytracing is my choice and perfect for me. People are acting like kids in the toyshop..you can't expect to choose from 6 different options. We should appreciate we CAN choose at all not like last gen mostly. I know people are moaning for everything these days but come on...we have 2 amazing options on PS5
This looks sad to me. Not the Nintendo titles that's fine they have a special audience which is not me but that's absolutely ok.
What makes me said is the hegemony of multiplayer titles like Fifa and COD. I will never understand why people keep buying these
@Exlee300p yeah that was very strange. Little nightmares 2 was absolutely amazing i didn't understand that as well. I played through the first one right after i finished the second so i could compare them. The Little Nigthmares 2 was better and longer. For me at least. I haven't play Oddworld but i'll definately give it a go. And I encourage everyone just don't listen to the reviews try it yourself otherwise you may miss some very good game
@AFCC why LOL?! The game is running 4K with raytracing and looks absolutely amazing . Honestly i haven't even noticed it is running at 30fps .. If they could update it with a 4k raytracing 60fps version that would be even better of course.
@Voltan Thanks ok i see. I'm not too far in the game with the main quest line just wondering around and doing raids and collecting wealth. probably that's why i haven't experienced anything. Will see then hope they fix those problems soon. Take care everyone and enjoy your gaming!
I was so skeptical with this game because of reading articles and comments in the past few months. Then i decided to jump into it and have a look what is the game like. Now my counter is around 70 hours and honestly this is an amazing game i was fool to skip it for a long time. Playing on on PS5 and i haven't experienced a single crash at all. There are some small glitches but they are rather funny than annoying.
That's sad. I always be a fan of physical editions . You can collect them, resell them after completing then buy again when price drops down. Or if you don't like the game you can just sell it so you don't lose money on games you never play. Also i like to own the games and have different editions of games i like. Companies like Sony obviously want to push people towards digital as there are no second hand market on digital games. Hope we'll keep getting physicals in the future
Fantastic! Probably it's time for me to play FFVII. I've never played any Final Fantasy games so far i wasn't interested. I know it's weird but i'll give it a go now. Remnant From The Ashes is the game i thought i was going to buy this week , now i don't need to. I'm absolutely satisfied
I love collecting games and i have a massive collection of all kind of edition. Packaging doesn't matter can be cardboard or any other eco-friendly stuff just please don't get rid of physical editions entirely because a lot of people like to own the games not just downloading them from a server.

Re: Elden Ring Collector's Edition Outed Ahead of Gameplay Reveal
@WanderingBullet yeah it seems if you order from Bandai Namco store you'll get a steelbook. However on Amazon UK there's no steelbook with Launch edition. Maybe it's a store exclusive? I'm a bit confused
Re: Elden Ring Collector's Edition Outed Ahead of Gameplay Reveal
@WanderingBullet no sorry it seems the European version doesn't contain steelbook unfortunately. My bad sorry for misleading information.
Re: Elden Ring Collector's Edition Outed Ahead of Gameplay Reveal
if anyone interested the Collector's edition and the Launch edition ( steelbook edition) still available on Amazon for PS5.
