OK I don't understand some of the reviews here. The show got a bit more Avatar or Voltron (latest one) flavour mixed in with Superman, but... that's it. The difference is in tone, not quality IMO. The main beats are here: Clark Kent is a genuine guy, a good person who is out there to help ppl. All of his classic traits are here. He's not 100% Superman yet, he's more... Superman in training. He's still learning about his origins. And that's OK. It just shifted the beats a bit. Jimmy, well he's competent as well (look at the latest episode). He is perceptive and caring, and is actually right about most of the conspiracies he's promoting! Lois as well, but she also has FLAWS. Again latest two episodes (as of August 10th), have given us episodes in which she is obviously in the wrong. From what I gather the characters are like... 22ish? Something like that. Still unsure where they belong, they are interns, so it's natural that the Superman mythos is still being established. The transformation sequences aren't important? Don't know why they were included, but... it just didn't bother me as it did some people? Finally there are critiques: Slade Willson's character is not enjoyable to me- in fact I DIDN'T know who it was until I googled him. But the show has heart, and is mostly faithful to the characters. Clark Kent is still Clark, his parents are still the Martha and Jonathan you know and remember, but keep in mind that this is Superman at the very start, a level 1, and he'll fumble. And that's ok.

A thousand stars if possible. The game drops you into the world, and lets you do whatever you want in it, it lets you explore. While other 'open world' games give you marks and points on the map, Elden Ring doesn't do that. In most open world games I felt like I was dragged forward by the game to the points it wanted me to see, rather than letting me explore (some games do this very well- Witcher 3), but in Elden Ring your curiosity is rewarded at every step. The game forces you to explore the world, and its incredible variety in both the vistas and enemies you face. To add to this, within this open world formula lies the old familiar Souls structure, where each dungeon, big or small feels like a separate level. The dungeons themselves could be another Dark Souls game on their own. And yes, expect a lot of deaths, embrace them. That's part of the game loop. The game will always give you options to deal with it, through skill or equipment and preparation. This is the game I'd recommend to a lot of people who don't like Souls games. It's worth a try.

An excellent experience. The free portion of the game is an incredible offering, but the expansions themselves add to the experience. If you're a fan of Destiny feel free to pick up Forsaken and Shadowkeep, but if you're not, dip your toe into the water with the New Light. You won't regret it.
