Elden Ring is the greatest video game of all time and my personal favorite, tied with Bloodborne. There's just no other game like it. I couldn't pick which one of the two is better—they're both masterpieces and GOAT. I've completed all of FromSoftware's Soulsborne games, and I would say this is the culmination of all of them.

I platinumed/100% completed this game in just one week on PlayStation 5 during its release week, and my run was in the top 0.3% completion overall at that time. I even found a game-boosting side job and earned a few bucks from it. It has ruined every RPG that came out afterward and that I've played to this day. What else can I say? That's how great it is!

I've spent hundreds of hours on PlayStation 5 and will still spend more on Steam PC—thousands, even—with the release of the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC.

The only downside to this game is that it will ruin your enjoyment and experience with other RPGs that come out afterward. You haven't played it yet? What are you playing instead? Stop whatever mediocre games you're playing right now! Don't sleep on it! Go grab it NOW!

Best game on Steam Deck right now.

Best Remake.
Best Resident Evil.
Best Ever.

WARNING: Very addictive

Helped me cope with an injury.

I played this game to death on Xbox PC game pass. Literally just bought this on Steam for while now just to drop a review. So, freakishly addictive. Played mostly during my meetings at work, waiting times, and on the go. It's been a while since I had so much real fun in a video game, which rarely happens in modern gaming. Very simple, yet has so much quality, and content. Brought back the good old kid self when I used to play a game.

PS: Should have won best indie game of the year at The Game awards though, instead of just some random mediocre shallow cat game.

Better than s***** a** Valorant. No bullcrap. Just straight up gunfight and fun.

The only reason why I'm dropping a negative review to this game is because it's always crashing my PC. Sometimes it only crashes the game/application with a prompt random error code popping out. I tried every possible fix I know and also looked up all over the internet for some other possible fixes but still it didn't worked out for me. Like I did some permission changes, updated drivers, verified files integrity, compatibility and etc. I don't think it's an hardware issue as well because I just recently upgraded my PC and all other games are working just fine. It's so frustrating because I really liked the game. It gives me the vibe of my personal classics such as half-life and bioshock. Such a shame it's unplayable for me. Regardless of my experience, this is still a great quality game. It's so underrated that we only heard this game just a few times. I might be playing this on my PS4 since I got this for free from PS plus. Will request for a refund for this version.

After multiple playthroughs, I can now finally say, and agree with the majority, that Dark Souls 2: Scholar of the First Sin (SOTFS) is indeed the weakest in the Dark Souls series and even in the entire FromSoftware Soulsborne entries (I’ve finished them all).

Dark Souls 2: SOTFS has some of the crappiest level design; it's so hard to get through due to most of the paths being narrow, filled with random traps and aggressive enemies ganking you. They also removed the iFrames (invincibility frames) and turned them into a variable in the form of agility, which is a derived stat from the adaptability attribute. iFrames should have been included by default. Without them, it’s incredibly difficult to roll effectively against most of the game's monsters and bosses. Even tank builds need to roll at some point and efficiently use consumables. Since iFrames are now variable, it allows players to cheese the entire game. All you need to do is raise your agility to at least 105, and boom, it becomes easy mode. Combat feels floaty and clunky without default iFrames.

What I liked about the game is the variety of builds and playstyles due to the many weapons with unique movesets. It's like a fighting game with multiple characters and different movesets. It’s complex but fun. While the bosses are decent, they aren't as good as in the other games. However, I really enjoyed my fight against the Fume Knight. It was one hell of a fight, fun and satisfying at the same time. Dark Souls 2: SOTFS is a bad Souls game but a good game overall. So, I still recommend it to anyone.

I'm only dropping this review because Monster Hunter Rise is utter garbage. I played multiple Monster Hunter Games in my entire life since ps2/psp days and all I could say is that MONSTER HUNTER WORLD is the best of em all! I don't understand why CAPCOM created a less superior game after MHW. It should have been a better game since it's a successor. Do not waste your money on buying MH Rise, instead go buy this one because it's cheaper and million times BETTER!
