From GamesReviews: "Elden Ring looks set to be one of the most important games of the generation - and yet it wasn't trailers or screendrops that made it so."

Yeah i agree with everything except one thing .. you actually think RDR2 was one of the defining games of the generation ? Jesus.. i mean just put BOTW there instead .. it's fine the game deserves it. As for RDR2 for me personally it was the opposite of defining anything except outdated boring mission design and clunky slow ass gameplay that was somehow worse than the first game that came out 8 years before. Now that first RDR game.. oh man now that game can be called as a defining game of generation, it was excellent and it still holds up.

RDR2 for me is one of the most overrated games ever made.

And BOTW is one the most overrated games ever made in my opinion...

I didn't like RDR2 as well. I played about 7 hrs deleted it & traded it in.

Red Dead 2 was awful but I am sure some people loved it

SegaSaturn6691542d ago

My first 10 hours with that game made me want to quit. But later on, it really did feel better.

ChubbyBlade1542d ago

Completely opposite reaction from me. I don’t mind slow gameplay at all. The goal of the game was immersion and it did a damn good job of that. RDR2 deserved all the praise it got. Incredible storytelling, incredible graphics, great world design, fantastic world building and environmental storytelling. A lot of people who seem to dislike it were expecting a shootn tootn third person mindless shooter when that’s never what it was going to be.

As an OG Zelda fan/player, I personally thought BOTW is the most overrated game I have ever played. On a different note, I enjoyed RDR2 even though there were definitely some frustrating moments with their game design.

I'm about 7hrs in on elder ring but I'm just not feeling it, I loved the dark souls games but this just doesn't have the same crunch to it.
It feels more like a hack n slash and the enemy lock on is atrocious, you lock on to an enemy and star fighting then all of a sudden it will change a lock on to a dam bird 50 metres away.
You can't say we'll this is not like dark souls because it has the same lay out in the menus and controls and even the upgrading.
I will give it a few more hrs to see if it get better but at the moment I finding it a bit boring.
Glad other people are enjoying it though.

why is that dumb? It's the same price everywhere else.

repsahj38d ago

Because it's Nintendo. Post negative first before analizing.

LiViNgLeGaCY38d ago

Because this is the ONLY version you can buy on the S2, correct? I don't think you can buy just the game for $60 like the other platforms. And if I'm wrong about this, then I take it back.

LiViNgLeGaCY38d ago

@repsahj - Dude, shut up. I like Nintendo a lot, actually. I just want the option to get the base game for $60 WITHOUT the DLC. I've done plenty of "analyzing".

Neonridr39d ago

Before anyone complains, this is the same price on PlayStation, Xbox and Steam. It comes with the Game and the DLC.

Elda38d ago

The game is $40 & the expansion is $40 so the price is right.

VersusDMC38d ago

The standard edition physical should have been 40 then with the expansion seperate. Why normalize 80 dollar games? Specially ports of old games.

If people accept this might as well make physical 80 dollar deluxe versions only.

repsahj38d ago

This $80 version is also available on PS5 and XSX.

VersusDMC37d ago

@repsahj

The ps5 has the standard version and the 80$ version so it gives you the choice...on switch 2 physical you can only buy the 80 dollar version.

I guess since they got the data that less than half of elden ring players beat the game and would probably not buy the DLC, they decided to just not make it an option and charge more...

Like it or not, the vast majority of game sales are digital. Just like movies, and music. At least Gamekey cards are shareable and you can sell them.
