Elden Ring has been absolutely crushing both on the sales charts and its player base. The latest outing from FromSoftware has been stirring up renewed conversations around game difficulty. In an interview with the New Yorker, Hidetaka Miyazaki spoke to the studios’ identity and how challenge shapes not only their games but who they are.

Bloodborne got my heart pumping hard that was so dope.
Elden Ring is by far one of the easiest souls games I’ve played and I’ve played them all. People really need to Git Gud seriously lol
just git gud.
From software devs wont stop making difficult games that’s why they increase the difficulty on Elden Ring by making the worst Pc port possible… so the statement is true 100%…
Never change Miyazaki.
Elden Ring is actually really easy compared to previous titles.
Every time fromsoft releases a game you have these cry babies saying its too hard. Like they did every other game before but still bought it lmao. Piss off.
Ok, but your developers should stop making buggy and unoptimised games
And for keeping your identity WE THANK YOU.
Let people make the games they want to make. It's not like they're forcing anyone to play them. Just don't play it if you think it's too difficult
Just make a option to not loose so much health or make the potion more efective. The game can stay the same.
Currently the real hard mode is playing five minutes on PC with all the constant stuttering.
That’s great news.👍👍👍👍 Games like this should be Hard , plus improve’s cognitive function in the brain.👍👍
People who complain about the difficulty don't understand the concept of the game. Diying and overcoming the challenge is the goal. The funny thing is the people can cry as long as they want. FromSoftware Games will not change. And all there crying is marketing, so please go on …
Ironically Elden ring out of all souls games is the most forgiving in lots of its mechanics
We wouldn’t have it any other way!
Only baby b%tches cry about this
LFG. Let Miyazaki and his team freely create the games they want. Its a formula that fans have come to love and respect FromSoft for, for over a decade.
It means that the next Armored Core game will be hell hard. XD
Hell ya!!
Won't stop making the same game*
Fromsoft goated y’all whiny noobs need to Git Gud 💯
The Elden ring gameplay and world are great, but there is no compelling reason to keep playing. The story is non existent, you just grind and level up, it's beautiful but boring.
Yup and they wont, fromsoftware already stated that it is part of their identity and it sure is, hope they never change =:D
This game is a step back from sekiro. That game was mechanically sound, had tight controls, and bosses were designed to be difficult but had clear methods to beat them when you developed your skills. This feels the combat is less refined and everything is stat based rather than skill based; It feels difficult sometimes for the wrong reasons.
Also some segments of the game reintroduce blightown levels of frustrating gameplay mechanics that really drag down a otherwise decent open world game.
Why stop?this is their thing..Whithout that they re nothing…
What about games in English? Haven’t been able to play cuz it’s language locked in all of Asia
rofl felt bad for people watching the elden ring review of IGN, reviewed by a "soulslike vet" rofl more like reviewed by a gaming outlet journo with the cheap form opinion called as comparisons starting with "BOTW-like" rofl the only time IGN had the sub=views were on trailers and hype most anticipated game that the gamign illiterate would watch cause they had no outer alternative for reviewers cons of just new to the gaming community
Difficult Games only made for a real man
Wouldn't have it any other way
He has his hardcore group of fans but tbh, this type of punishing game will never get mainstream appeal or sales. Life it too short to play such a punishing and frustrating type of game like this
"Conversations"
Boo hoo
Well he isn’t going to sell as many games as he could sell
Well Duh.
It's what they do..
It's too easy there should be an option to increase difficulty
Just remember: It’s OK if a game has an easy mode and OK if someone wants to play on easy mode.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!
There are alreadyn tons of easy games…they are called walking simulators.
Money is results, complaints aren't.
Hoping for a bloodborne 2 🙏
Let the meek play Minecraft and Call of Duty.
Anyone that complains about the difficulty truly has a fragile amount of patience.
they took time to make great game. they make new game even better than previous game. they deserve the success on elden ring
AMEN to 1 difficulty!
It’s unfortunate that too many gamers care more about the game accomplishments and not real world accomplishments
