Absolutely. I haven’t been following this game and I’d be thrilled if it was solid at launch, but we gotta keep CS:2 in mind.

A good man, this Ape.

I should play Skyrim again.

The issues sound patchable to a layman like myself. Embrace patient gaming and enjoy in a month or so.

True other games have had that, but it really wasn’t a goal for Elden Ring and I don’t think it really hinders it. The immersion into a real world was clearly a tentpole design decision for Rockstar in RDR2, but not Fromsoft. Which is fine for you to miss in Elden Ring, I just think we gotta manage expectations sometimes where not every game can have every thing.
