    I was kind of disappointed with Elden Ring too, from what I played of it.

    Just out of curiosity, what was it that you disliked?

      A lot of repetition, empty, hollow, ugly world, Sub par graphics, Punishing gameplay (I’m not a fan of spending an hour dying over and over) After like 20 hours of playing I have no idea what the story was or what the game is about.

      I reached a point where I just got sick of grinding with no idea why, and to explore more of a world that was utterly uninteresting

      Note: it’s the first game I’ve played from the souls series, cause I had no idea it was until I was playing it

        So you did not inform yourself before buying it and did not like the Genre? Isnt that Kind of unfair to assume that everyone thinks that way when most reviews were positive? What other games Do you play

          I didn’t buy it. I borrowed it. Also when a game is given Game of the Year, accessibility should be high up on the list. If it’s a niche genre that won’t appeal to most and I have to inform myself about before diving it, then it doesn’t deserve game of the year.
