Vamos Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 As ACG mentioned in their video, the latest patch 1.021 is to be blamed for this. Anyone who bought the disc can just play the vanilla version from disc without updating. Should be fine as this is the version all the reviews are based on.

The horse fighting is atrocious and the game seems to lean on it for the first boss fight. Returning back to Horizon: FW, at least that game respects my time. Horizon is underrated and Elden ring looks overrated. Horizon on base PS4 looks better than Elden ring on nextgen consoles lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was cynical at first for Elden Ring graphics when I finished the Demon's Souls on PS5 last year. But it's more about the game tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b!T Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 So reviewers ignored all these issues or the copy they played were fine? I've been reading that the patch screwed up the game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they made such a huge leap forward in Sekiro: posture breaking and enemy move set that you have to memorize is genuinely satisfying. Here as soon as I died to the first boss, rolling around and slashing and just cheesing a victory out of it: i realized I don’t enjoy this sh*t and I literally don’t have time to do this anymore.

You dont have a dedicated meter to gauge it in ER though. It builds up by - strong attacks, jump attacks and block counters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bro. I recently played Nioh 2. Just blown away by combat. In comparison Elden ring looks so slow and clunky. I think they copy pasted Dark Souls 3 combat.

Vamos Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 7 minutes ago, Mr. Comingle said: Game is f**king brilliant though barring the performance. It looks amazing despite what anyone says. I love the art style, the music and overall discovery. The combat and encounter design is still very much Dark Souls but the fact that it's so open means everyone will have a different experience. Yesterday I ended up playing till 4 am inspite of getting my a*s kicked. Best the first boss and he dropped a weapon way above my level so idk maybe I was underlevelled or something. Great! The sudden negative response was kinda exaggerated. Some stuttering here and there isn’t gonna impact the experience much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gamer_adi Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 lol, most ppl here passing judgment on the game and the reviewers after playing barely a couple of hours out of a 100+ hour game, many haven't even played a min. of it and yet passing their expert comment on here. Bought it on ps4pro, will play it later tonight or on Sunday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STICK3Rboy Posted February 25, 2022 Report Share Posted February 25, 2022 Could only play very little so far. Just reached the open-world and ran around for a bit. The game looks much cleaner and feels much smoother on PC than the network test did on PS5. Getting locked 60fps but I did notice some minor stuttering here and there. Will have to play more.

Once they hear the slightest bit of negative press, they come out of the woodwork claiming the game has sh*t graphics and weak gameplay. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
