The fact that Miyazaki will not play Elden Ring is initially quite remarkable, as he indicates in the same interview that the upcoming Soulslike is the ‘ideal game’ for him. But according to Miyazaki, every game should be a ‘fresh experience’ and players should always have the opportunity to discover a game on their own. And since the best man made the game himself, it is of course impossible to go into it blindly.

“You wouldn’t get any of the unknowns that the fresh player is going to experience. Like I said before, it wouldn’t feel like playing. But if I did, then this would be close to the ideal game I’d want.”
And with that explanation in mind, the Guard thinks it’s a logical choice that Miyazaki isn’t going to play his own game. According to him, Elden Ring is a party for discovering gamers. So if you like to discover a game all by yourself and you are ready for a spicy game, then Elden Ring is probably right up your alley. Only then does the Watch wonder whether you will manage to search as little as possible about the game in the next two months. Good luck!
