While this is quite the task, many players make it their intention when beginning these games to achieve 100% completion. They want the extra challenge that comes with the difficulty of these games and to get their money's worth and full enjoym

Sometimes they're in a difficult place to gather them from, and starting a boss fight traps the player in the encounter. Accidentally stumbling into one leaves the player with only two options if they want their runes back, to either defeat the boss or scream "Let me out" at the door like Eric An

Malenia, Blade of Miquella is the most imitated Elden Ring character. She's quite possibly the toughest boss FromSoftware has ever created, and she processes a dynamic aesthetic that's unmatched. While there are plenty of custom designs out there, one particularly beautiful Elden Ring Malenia cosplay got FromSoftware's approval . Twitter user Sparrowhawk Cosplay released images that highlighted Malenia's best attributes, and they did it in a way that showed off an ultra-realistic and highly-detailed version of the Goddess of Rot. This cosplayer custom makes their own designs, making the costume even more impressive, warranting the amount of traction it got onl

However, not all players want a setting to be bleak all the time. There are some light and strange moments, like with the Merchant Kalé. However, for some gamers and modders, this isn't enough and so they've created some truly funny and bizarre mods that absolutely break the g

Taking on the role of the Dragonborn to stop Alduin from ushering in a draconic rapture is perhaps even more addicting on Steam Deck. Its deep mod support and free-flowing character progression system will make tackling the land's plethora of content and creating unique builds easier to pick up and play -- even if it's another run at being a stealthy arc

These meme uses the common format of a Monsters Inc. scene __ to hilariously depict their epic approach to go fight the boss "Radahn." Or, it would be epic if not for them already having been wiped by the boss nine times bef

In most games, falling from a height would cause some damage, but in Elden Ring , it almost always seemed to be either no damage or instant death. The results offered major frustration for some players, as they likely lost their runes to falling to areas they couldn't reach ag

One unanswered question is the relationship between Nepheli and Godfrey. Since Godfrey becomes chief of the warriors, the name Loux may be a clan name that Nepheli took to show which clan she came from. Another potential connection is she may be Godfrey’s mysterious Elden Ring warrior daughter born before or after his marriage to Queen Marika. Nepheli could also be distantly related to him, like a granddaughter or great-granddaughter. The relationship between Nepheli and Godfrey at this moment isn't entirely known, but perhaps the unconfirmed Barbarians of the Badlands DLC could further explain their relationship. It also could reveal more about this mysterious Badland location that lies beyond the Lands Betw

However, there is also a chance that this leak is a hoax fabricated by the group responsible for the ransomware attack. Based on the other game titles released, some individuals believe this leak is a hoax and has no chance of being true. That said, this also happened with Capcom several years ago, ultimately resulting in the Dragons Dogma 2 sequel being revealed ahead of sched

Further support for the leak being a hoax lies in the fact that a ransomware attack will naturally demand some form of payment from its target. When Cyberpunk 2077 studio CD Projekt Red was hacked , they received a ransom note demanding payment with the threat of releasing information. It makes little sense for ALPHV to hack into Bandai Namco’s servers, steal sensitive data, and then give out vital information they are holding hostage for f

While players who want to get through the game more swiftly might find themselves skipping over Ranni's quest line, those who find the base storyline challenging may have an overall easier time by undergoing Ranni's st

Elden Ring has an outstanding visual appearance, and many of the players who had already conquered the Dark Souls franchise likely made the Elden Ring gameplay look easy on streams and videos. But when the average player downloaded the existential Video game themes, it was a bit of a different st

Ranni the Witch has also had her fair share or fan-made cosplays. In much of the same way Malenia is adored, Ranni is too, but she possesses more of a mysterious side that intrigues players rather than a fierce warrior-like persona. Ranni was one of the first Elden Ring characters to get attention online, and many theories about exactly who she was and what kind of role she played in the grand story were passed around. It's no surprise that she is a fan favorite, and even the famed cosplayer, Jessica Nigri , showed her love for the character on Twitter by turning heads with an Elden Ring Ranni cosplay . Since then, many fans have created their own Ranni cosplay, but Jessica's remains the most well-known, and it might be the costume that has the most traction out of any ot
