1. Less stress for players
Hidetaka Miyazaki’s games — such as Dark Souls — are known for their challenging difficulty and demanding learning curve, something that can cause players to face the same course or battle many times before finally making progress.
Thinking about that, Elden Ring has a novelty that will help reduce some of this stress, where the player can choose the point at which their character respawns after a defeat, becoming a tool to temporarily avoid very challenging locations or even return to points on the map where it is possible to “farm” and prepare accordingly for future attempts. . This novelty does not compromise the difficulty of battles and gives the opportunity to choose for those who prefer a more dynamic game.
2. Open World and Replayability
Since the announcement that it would take place in the open world, the excitement for Elden Ring increased a lot. After all, the idea of a new universe created by Miyazaki in this format would provide even more opportunities for challenging adventures, unusual encounters and an unprecedented level of exploration, something that every RPG fan often appreciates.
Although the concept of an open world generally offers uninteresting obstacles, in addition to the possibility of an empty and lifeless map, or even the need for hundreds of hours to finish the game, fortunately this is not the case for Elden Ring. The game can have its main story completed around 30 hours without the need to fully explore the map, but the possibilities and replay factor of the game will increase dramatically for Pathfinders who are willing to dive in and reveal every secret, character and challenge of this rich universe created in partnership with renowned writer George RR Martin ( responsible for the bestseller A Song of Ice and Fire).
3. More options in combat
The battle system remains as challenging and accurate as its predecessors, but Miyazaki talked about how players will now have more options for utilizing their skills and weapons. The skill tree is customizable so the player can adapt to build your character over the course of the game.
Elden Ring It also offers over 100 different abilities, as well as different types of weapons that players can freely use and trade throughout their journeys.
