From Software’s latest game Elden Ring is a masterpiece of open-world design that places exploration and player agency at the heart of the experience.

Kinda sus how every review is 10/10 just like other titles that was overhyped. Also most of these people haven’t even finished the game and given it game of the year
Souls games are for souls fans, not for everyone, not for me. My interest is in other games.
But you gotta respect games that don't release broken and devs that stick with their original formula not trying to chase trends👍
Based on the logic you used to review HFW this is not a masterpiece since its "too difficult" lol.
I don’t get the appeal of these games. They are massive and beautiful worlds that are populated by monsters. There’s no “life” in these games. Where are the towns, governments, taverns. It just feels empty to me.
45 FPS is bumming me out right now….
I'm so glad that people seem to finally be getting sick of the handholding map marker ridden open world games. BOTW and now Elden ring are showing that people want a return to games that respect the player and encourage their curiosity.
Morrowind is my favourite game of all time, but i'm starting to think elden ring might finally be the game to usurp it.
How is Gamespot’s review worse than IGN’s? This is a horrible review because he talking about stuff that is completely untrue and irrelevant
Man I've never felt like such an excited little boy in all my life, at least since I was a little boy.
I’ve never played a souls game, but BOTW is possibly the best open world game I ever played. I might of pre ordered this off of FOMO, but I am pumped to play it.
This is pretty much all from souls likes in one, jumping from sekiro, medieval memeiness from dark souls and Bloodborne with that cannon trick weapon
This is a comment In Progress
Please speak louder or turn your vocals up
All that said the game still looks EHH to me don’t know if I will try it
I'm still laughing at the 10/10 Deathloop score.
finally a game worth buying and not refunding
I’m pretty sure everyone will give Horizon Forbidden West and God of war 2 a 10 out of 10 as well! I’ll wait until more people review the game before I buy it!
I honestly just heard about this game a couple weeks ago (yes, I live under a rock) but since then I've already preordered it! So beyond hyped as this will be my first From game ever.
Taking Gamespots 10’s with a grain of salt. Comon guys.
couldn't watch due to this extremely monotonous, annoying background music.
Spoils are nice
Last time I remember a game achieving its hype was GTA 5
yeah the reviewer is talking about ubisoft's cookie cutter open world
What! Still Reviewing?
Hand it Over, That Thing..
Your 10 / 10.
I bought a series s just for this
So happy they are going to deliver on everything they promised, and we are so lucky to be able to play this in 2 days!!!!…
When everyone else is ahead of you and you just need to be on hype train
Heyyy, you're that guy on Twitter fighting for an easy mode in Dark Souls huh??!
Blazes….i havent seen reviews like these…ever..Every single outlet is calling this a MASTERPIECE
Every
Single
One!!!!
Lots of great points, 7:59 sold me though. My two favorite things mashed up.
Because of the lack of an in-game log/journal etc, I highly recommend you keep an actual journal of the game. Especially for when you put down the game for any period of time because there's a good chance you'll forget WTH you were doing.
Thanks GameSpot💖💖💖💖💖💖
Nice one, Tamoor. See you in the gym bro. 😎
