Yeah, that guy. That's when I realized that

1) You are wandering around actual hell

2) Everyone wants to kill you

3) Your best-case scenario is wandering around killing everyone in order to level up so that you're killed less often.

Some people enjoy that, and good on 'em. I am not one of them. And again, no shade? but

    the beautiful world design

dude. Elden Ring looks like Skyrim with the Zack Snyder filter on. That's maybe a little harsh? But I want you to imagine transitioning directly from this

to this.

Yes, the only interactions besides talking to a few NPCs is murdering.

But, dude. This game looks good.

Characters are ass and I say that having played through Cyberpunk 2 1/2 times.

I made it far enough to go "huh that glowy tree over there is kinda cool looking" but my experience was entirely "this is an uglier game than HZD, Cyberpunk, Witcher3 or Destiny and reminds me way too much of Fallout."

You can like it? But we're straying real close to arguing that I'm not allowed to not like it. I did after all, link to myself getting dunked on for hating the ever-loving shit out of one of the most beloved video games of all time. I'ma keep doin' it.
