All that craze around Elden Ring made me curious what all the hype is about and check out my first soulsborne game. And I'm very impressed.

I've been playing video games for 30 years, but this is one of the best games ever. It breaks the uninspired trend of maps littered with markers and filled with boring sidequest. No unnecessary holding the player by the hand and explaining what to do. Finding that out by yourself (while dying over and over again) is part of the experience.

It evokes a feeling of the first Zelda game, where you just got dropped in a confusing, fantastic world and had to figure out everything by yourself.
