I’ve been playing Elden Ring over the last week. Here’s my thoughts on it so far. Expect a blind playthrough on the channel over the coming days.

I love how you dont show us too much footage. Too many of the reviewers who I normally love, did great reviews but showed too much.
Doesn't look like breath of the wild. Even if those mentioned point of interest. Games been done that only that it not a way point quest.
The visuals have already blown my mind, Ruri. These kinds of games often have a tendancy to be bleak and washed out-looking for the sake of the atmosphere, but not here. It has the perfect amount of color to look absolutely beautiful, while still being able to look dark and gritty when it needs to. I freaking LOVE it!
YAAAAAYYYYYYY RESPEC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Are these things like the memory stone that gives increased memory slots, permanent? Or do you have to equip them?
Can't wait for the blind playthrough. Always loved the Dark Souls coverage.
from what i'm hearing, this game might be worth twice the standard price of a video game.
Ruri's beard is looking glorious ngl…
Glad you really liked the game.. 🙂👍
Sounds like you need a Myst Journal for playing through.
23:46 Nautilus build incoming!
I will be taking my sweet time on character creation … You'll see eminem slaying dem dragons
Oh no please not breath of the wild. I hate breath of the wild.
i have never played any souls or bloodborne blind. I always use a wiki and a guide. Otherwise i will miss stuff. I hate nothing more than missing stuff. Or NPCs get killed because i didn't know i need to kill a specific npc in time. I would hate this stuff.
Knowledge in soulsborne games is like the island in the first pirates movies.
It can only be found by people who already know where it is.
I've heard mentions that are around 100 bosses… ONE HUNDRED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! of course not all of them are massive and there is some reuses but ONE FREAKING HUNDRED!!!!!!!
I've played Elden Ring for about five hours now and it feels like a crowning achievement. A game that will have the industry impact of Skyrim and BOTW.
"Open world" games will never be the same again. The attention to detail on display here, alongside the density of "attractions," is something I've not seen before.
I just hope that the PC port is stable this time around.
I never got to play the Dark Souls series, because of how awful and half assed the original Dark Souls' PC port was. You basically had to fix the game yourself with community made patches and mods, so I just gave up and never got to experience DS2 or DS3. (because I didn't want to 'skip lore' in that trilogy)
What class are you playing as?
I'm in new Zealand for the day. Thank you Xbox for letting us change our time 🙂
Im so hyped! Trying not to spoil myself but if you do everything there is to do in a given open world area, do you end up overpowered for the next legacy dungeon?
Wine time 🙂
Damn if I was not moving I would spend hours. Im jelous, guys 😀
Props to you for chilling on the game. Ive actually felt kinda sorry for some of the content creators that I know are passionate abt From Software, that felt like they had to bust ass through the game. You only get ONE first playthrough. One.
Elden ring drops at midnight where I live so… I think I'll take a look at character creation before bed lol
As soon as I’ve made a dent in the game I’ll be back for your play through for sure. Just need to get slightly ahead of where I’ll be watching lol
Changing equipment load from STR to END kinda makes me sad ngl. Sounded like such a fun idea.
Ah yesssss, looking forward to that blind playthrough.
ACG just reported that the Day 1 patch actually makes the performance worse. This is not good.
Can i just say i love your hat
Thank you for a spoiler free review. It is now just a 2 hour wait till my playstation gets no rest for a full night. Also…. WE FUCKING MADE IT! THE RING IS UPON US!
I look forward to putting on your blind playthrough and glancing at it as I do my blind playthrough. Should be a grand old time.
Okay, I have one question, and I'd rather ask it here than anywhere else. How does multiplayer work in this game?
To be more specific, are there boundaries and such, I'm use to old souls having those specific summon areas then only being able to move around with your friends in those sections until you beat a boss and you get "kicked"
I want to know because it's now an open world and as far as I know, nothing is divided I to sections, atleast not in the same way it was in the older souls games. I'm aware the password system is back.
Just want to know because a friend of mine wants me to help him progress once I get my copy tomorrow.
So just bc botw is open world means we should compare it to Elden ring ? I don’t get the comparison
Why would u spoil the chest gimmick secret passage? Why dude ? That’s something that would’ve been fucking amazing seeing on ur own blind. Thanks bro
Elden ring is amazing
This game is going to die fast.
It's kinda baffling to me that nobody talks about the xbox calibration patch issue. Lots of ppl all over the world especially on Xbox cant play online cuz they are on 1.02 instead of 1.02.1 since launch none of these people can play online. Other games would have beeen roasted to the ground for this but I guess with Elden Ring stuff like that is completely fine
I guess I've been living under a rock cuz I didn't find out about this game til a few weeks before it came out and holy shit what a pleasant surprise. I am addicted.
