Topic: Elden Ring Hype Thread

@kyleforrester87 no I would think you would take notes as you go but I doubt the time takes into account breaks though. The time measured is probs from either console or pc timer, so might take into account the times where you just put the controller down to write. I probably got an extra 20 hrs in MGSV that way from the dispatch missions and leaving the console on overnight! 😂

@R1spam I still reckon blatant copying of other peoples reviews is the best tactic. Basically I would review the way I play these games - lots of cheese.

@kyleforrester87 I get you… but filip muicin thought the same, now his once burgeoning career doing the thing he loves is in ruins.

@LiamCroft no worries, cheers for the review!! I'm looking forward to trying it out in a few days and having the benefits of summons to drag my useless scrub ass through if I'm struggling 🙈

@kyleforrester87 You can review Elden Ring 2 then lad 😉

@kyleforrester87 a well placed word replace and no-one will be wiser! I still reckon blatant copying of other peoples comments is the best tactic. 😂

@LiamCroft easy! “Elden Ring 2 expands on everything the first game achieved, and despite one or two frame pacing issues and some texture pop in it stands as From Softwares greatest game yet. 9/10.”

Powpowpow

@kyleforrester87 Phwoar, love it!

@LiamCroft such proud 🤗

I’m pulling your leg buddy, well done getting through the bulk of the game so quick. My track record with souls games is against me finishing it.

@kyleforrester87 Haha I know, hopefully I can get it finished soon and put a score on the end.

@nessisonett I feel sorry for the reviewer who brings the aggregate review score down.

@JohnnyShoulder It’s a genuinely thankless job, the level of death threats and such are as bad these days as they were at the height of GamerGate and all that crap.

@nessisonett It's a sorry state of affairs when that kinda stuff is almost considered normal these days.

@EclipseZero Thanks! The work doesn't stop because I've got a ton of Elden Ring guides going live around launch, but one day I'll be able to move on haha

@EclipseZero I’ll need it 😂

Welp I've got my confirmation from the courier that my collectors edition is being delivered tomorrow. To my home address. And I'm at work. 😬

I hope there's like one guy that gives Elden Ring a 6 and drops the Metacritic score because they just want to watch the world burn

@johncalmc where’s stevivor’s score when you need it!

@colonelkilgore If it was a PlayStation exclusive it'd be a 7 guaranteed :')

@JohnnyShoulder sakes!! Always the way, do I sense the rapid onset of some GI symptoms making travel to work impossible?? My standard edition shipping status hasn't updated from simply games yet, I ordered it in November!! I'm working this weekend anyway but kinda hoped to play Friday night.
