purbeast Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Just someone crying because he isn't getting hand held on his way to piracy. Anyways, pretty disappointing that no console version of Elden Ring can apparently hold a steady 60fps in performance mode. Sounds like PS5 is the closest being around a constant 55-60fps but still, disappointing. I wonder if they can fix it with a patch or if the day 1 patch actually fixes it.

You became an "expert" at emulators well before I did. Kudos to you and your expertise. Looks like DF has a little writeup about what to expect performance wise with Elden Ring on the latest 1.02 patch (launch day one). https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-2022-02-24-elden-ring-performance-first-impressions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, you're a bonafide keyboard warrior, talking all this ****. Just tell me what I'm looking for is illegal, and I'll realize it. Alright, emulators are piracy, got it. Your 5 steps to success for whatever the **** ain't worth it. I'll buy a new Nintendo. You need a good roundhouse to the jaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those seem to be the closest to the Hunter I used in Demon's Souls and I liked it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearrock Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Would very much appreciate some feedback from the crowd on Elden Ring. I'm intrigued but also never played Soul-like game. How hard are we talking here? (Let's say in comparison to something like Monster Hunter series) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Let's say in comparison to something like Monster Hunter series) Never played Monster Hunter and have only played Demon's Souls on PS5. It is hard but it's fair hard. You will die. A lot. But you will learn when you die. When you lose, you lose because you F'd up. You may lose too because you are trying to progress before you are ready too. It is pretty damn hard right off the bat but once you get the hang of how to play it you start to understand it a bit better. You can't just go in balls to the wall like you can in some other games. Otherwise you gonna never progress. It's also different in that you will be replaying the same areas fairly often because you are dying. But you may take different paths. Like you will take a very long path around a level, but at the end of that path, you will unlock a shortcut. And that shortcut will be open from there on out in the game so you never have to take that long path again. If that makes sense. At least with Demon's Souls, it was very atmospheric too. I loved the different worlds and lore in that game and the sound was also fantastic. There is a lot of mystique around it too and I hope that is how Elden Ring is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Let's say in comparison to something like Monster Hunter series) I would like to know as well, I played the first Dark Souls and absolutely hated the game. Didn't touch another "souls like" game for years (bought The Surge, awesome game) and NEVER touched another Dark Souls game. However, this game has piqued my interest. I don't know if you're like me and only buy games that are on sale, but you might want to wait several months for a sale to buy. If you can handle Monster Hunter, I think you can handle a souls game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Evil Genius Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 Best description I've read so far is that you took a Souls game and adapted it to a more open world Breath of the Wild game. Expect to die, learn to play defensively at first, but it's less linear than the normal Souls game. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone getting Elden Ring on Xbox series x/s? Was about to buy it, but saw @purbeast post saying PS5 has the best FPS rate, so now I'm thinking going PS5.

I've never experienced it but apparently that is supposed to help quite a bit with frame rates varying so much. It's annoying because I'm going to be playing on 1080p but dealing with issues because the game is rendering at higher res then being scaled down to my display. Wish it could just be in 1080p and be 60fps. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted February 25, 2022 Author Share Posted February 25, 2022 Word is Elden Ring isn't as unforgiving as most of the other FromSoft ip's. Lot of the vets are taking down the early bosses with ease. Probably trying to get a larger following. Should still be tough as hell for newbies, but I wouldn't expect most of us to struggle mightily with it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GI podcast had their reviewer that said the best boss fight in the game, best of any FS game, is hidden away and most players won’t even find it but it took him an hour and a half to beat it. He was somebody that ranked Bloodborne as his favorite game ever until this Edited February 25, 2022 by Momma There Goes That Man 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PleaseBlitz Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Alright, i gave in to @Momma There Goes That Man Loading up HZD. Did not like it the first time, but probably didnt give it a fair shake. Willing to give it an honest effort. BTW, Far Cry 6 isnt great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
