    • Not sure. But all the new world players on my steam switched to Elden ring.pango
    • Could well not be for you if Dark Souls wasn’t. I think RR Martin + Fromsoft is causing meltdowns for certain enthusiasts.MrT
    • I’m considering Elden Ring after Red Head Redemption. But I’m not a big fan of the ‘too hard’ basket...MrT
    • It's the best souls game. The other ones were rough as if you were stuck on a boss, you just had to will through it, orrobotinc
    • farm souls to level up. This one is so huge you can just go explore somewhere else. It's a massive, beautiful, hard worldrobotinc
    • It's a fun, infuriating, depressing worldcannonball1978
    • I largely avoided FromSoft games until now. Tried BB for a couple hours and uninstalled. Decided to give ER a go and it has become one of my favorite gaming...duckseason
    • ...experiences in recent memory. It takes a bit to get used to, and to figure out the systems/mechanics. As robot said, if you get stuck, you can just turn in..duckseason
    • ...another direction and do something else. There are also lots of ways to overcome the difficulty, whether your build, multiplayer, summoning npcs, farming etcduckseason
    • That being said, it did take a few sessions, and starting over with a new class after 6 hours, for things to finally start clicking for me.duckseason
    • Sounds fun. I’m a big fan of their armored core seriesscarabin
    • try a hemmorage build. I can 3 shot most, if not all bosses. best fromsoft game IMO. the level design and voice acting are in a class of their own.kaiyohtee
    • I tried, I couldn't get into itGuyFawkes
    • I have 150 hours in, and I dont even think Im near the end of the game. They made co op stupid fun. I spend entire days helping others.DRIFTMONKEY
    • also, bloodborne is arguably better than dark souls—except ds3). the control is amazing and rewards aggressive game play.kaiyohtee
    • As duckseason said, it's been my favorite gaming experience in recent memory. Lots of RPG elements, a stunning world to explore, and so many secrets to uncover.elahon
