Ancient ring has been one of the most anticipated games in recent memory, developed by the studio behind the Dark Souls franchise, however, one question that has been frequently asked is, will it be that difficult? Ever since Bloodborne launched in 2022 on PlayStation 4, fans have been patiently waiting for what FromSoftware has up their sleeve. Revealed at the 3 E2022 conference, a trailer was only recently released. The anticipation was met with a huge positive reaction as fans eagerly awaited a gameplay reveal.
Aiming for a release date of 21st 2022. Co-written by George RR Martin, known to many as the author of Game Of Thrones, Elden Ring describes itself simply as "Arise, tarnished, and be guided by grace to wield the power of the Ancient Ring and become an Elder Lord in the Lands Between." Not much has been shown regarding the plot of the game, although fan expectations for FromSoftware have been quite high.
A mix of accessible and difficult
Ultimately, many have asked if Elden Ring meets or surpasses Dark Soul's series in terms of punishment and difficulty, and the answer is interesting. Lead writer alongside George RR Martin, Hidetaka Miyazaki compared the difficulty of Elden Ring to that of Dark Souls 3 on a minimum, which means that none of FromSoftware's shots will be taken. While it's also described as easily accessible for new players, it's no surprise that the Bloodborne and Dark Souls formula has bled into Elden Ring's design.
When it comes to new fans, FromSoftware's intentions to easily welcome new players to their latest title seem to be well thought out. Seeing how Elden Ring balances newcomers and veterans alike is an interesting concept, as stealth and free riding have been teased as a new addition for the release and possibly the upcoming series. The main concern is, is this actually a new Dark Souls under a different name?
Overall, whichever path Elden Ring chooses, for fans new and old, it will be a win-win situation. As for Dark Souls under a new title, that seems to be the case, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The last game in the Elden Ring genre to be released was Dark Souls 3 in 2022, followed by a Demon Souls remake in 2022. The Souls-Like design may make some newcomers who were initially interested in its location scatter , due to the sudden worry that his difficulty is going to be excruciatingly unforgiving. Personally, I'm willing to give it a try, although I may lose my mind eventually.
