Yes, it is absolutely worth purchasing if you enjoy open-world RPGs that are difficult. We have talked about this in other articles, but if you enjoyed playing any of the Dark Souls games, especially Dark Souls 3, you will love this game. There are people who don’t enjoy it, but this game is obviously not for them.
Should I get Elden Ring?
While critics seem to concur that it will stand as one of the best video games of the year, we’d also suggest that Elden Ring isn’t for everyone, exactly. People looking to zone out or relax can move right past this one, and so can those who don’t have the patience to deal with repeated failure in a game.
It’s pretty safe to say that Elden Ring is a tough game. Frequent ambushes and enemies that can kill you with a single hit can make the first few hours very difficult.
How popular is Elden Ring?
Elden Ring may have sold over 13 million copies, mesmerized critics, and taken the world by storm, but it’s hardly surprising that it hasn’t clinched a top spot in the most-played games list.
Why is Elden Ring so big?
Elden Ring’s scale means that FromSoft has had to maximise what it gets out of various assets. This game has a lot of repetition in it, which is not necessarily a problem, but once you’ve seen the same boss crop up in a slightly different form four times, you do start to get a little bit ‘meh’ about them.
From its stunning castles to its gorgeous forests, a lot of the game’s fans want to check out every part of The Lands Between. Its dark atmosphere and pieces of lore scattered throughout the world make Elden Ring come alive in ways that a lot of other open world games have failed to do.
