With Bloodborne, Dark Souls, and Sekiro under my belt, I would like to consider myself a Souls Veteran.
Essentially, Elden Ring is Dark Souls 4, 5 and 6 all rolled into one game. Imagine Dark Souls with a vast open-world, being able to jump at will, trusty stead, weather physics, and day-night mechanics.
If you're down for Dark Souls meet Skyrim. This is your game.
Also, I know a lot of people are worried about System Requirements on PC. I am able to run at 1080 on high graphics at 45 to 60 FPS on my I7-4770 (9-year-old chip), 16Gb of RAM, and on an Nvidia GTX1650.
If you like having a partner and keeping them long-term. I would recommend against buying this game.
