Jayonedge Elden Ring Review

Yea, it's peak in the form of a video game. I didn't gave this a 5 star rating because of the lack of guidance and its harshness towards beginners in the souls-borne genre. But that's kind of the main aspect of souls games so I can't be mad, just my opinion. Anyways, just to get things out of the way, combat is immaculate, story is very captivating, offers a lot of exploration, and has a good variety in its overall combat system. It's very surprising to me that every open-world RPG I play always manages to drown me in its vast ocean of content. This one, as of 27th March 2025, is probably the BEST game I've ever played so far. Despite its insanely merciless difficulty as someone's first game of the souls-borne genre, every other aspect of this game crushes the cons. Overall, this game has really helped me figure out what the best open-world RPGs looked like, so I'm really interested in what souls games have to offer.
