Ticket in kasyk Elden Ring Review
Oct 23, 2025
The game is fun, I platinumed it and have +120 hours in it, but there are just too many flaws to give this game a rating any higher than this. The boss design is terrible and straight up unfair, exploration feels stale and pretty much useless after your first playthrough since you most likely know where everything you need is, and there are more copy pasted bosses than I can even remember. I used to hate the amount of delayed attacks the bosses have, but ive gotten used to it. What I can't get used to though, is the .5 milliseconds of punish windows you get after a boss finishes their 10 second combo. Also, the fanbase for this game is simply the worst of the worst. If you haven't platinumed the game, played it for 300 hours and have beaten every single boss in the game no-hit, then apparently your opinion doesn't matter. Truly a combination of all the worst things of all the fromsoft games. I struggled a lot of Ds3 before playing Elden Ring, but loved every second of it. When I returned to it after playing Elden Ring, no boss in Ds3 took more than 5 attempts to defeat. I did all bosses in the base game. This game is so unfair and unforgiving it somehow made me better at Ds3, which btw is a better game in every way.
