BIGGEST OPEN WORLD GAME PC FULL
You can have the biggest open world in the universe, but if it's full of dull content, with dull traversal, and dull combat, it creates layers of irritation that don't make the journey worth the effort. There's been a focus in the post-Skyrim era among some AAA studios that size alone is the selling point.
BIGGEST OPEN WORLD GAME PC TORRENT
Much like Halo Infinite's vehicles, Elden Ring's Torrent steed is incredibly fun and easy to ride. Elden Ring also puts a large emphasis on the ease of traversal. If rewards weren't enough, much like Halo Infinite to some degree, the combat system is so immaculate in Elden Ring that simply exploring and defeating bosses is reward enough. You spend the majority of your time in Elden Ring inside the open-world areas, and much like previous FromSoftware RPGs, the volume of tools to uncover and unlock is somewhat staggering. In some ways, it's almost like two games, with the open-world connecting more intimate Dark Souls-like dungeons and castles, with classic complexity, absolutely crammed with secrets and restlessly nail-biting boss battle setpieces. Much like The Witcher 3, Breath of the Wild, and Skyrim before it, Elden Ring's open world is meticulously hand-crafted, and you can feel it in every corner of the game. That sense of wonderment and discovery is present at every corner of Elden Ring, and bristling with detail, and unique events. Even the most basic tombs and mineshafts felt like they had something interesting to discover at the end, even if they didn't provide anything specifically decent for my class build. Dozens of weapon types, skills, abilities, and armor give you a truly insane amount of control over how you will curate and tailor your character's playstyle. In the prologue area alone, I found at least 15 hours of raw, handcrafted, meaningful gameplay, with dozens of unique monsters, boss battles, loot, and dungeon areas.
I find myself truly aghast at Elden Ring. FromSoftware's absolute mastery of RPG depth soars to incredible new heights in Elden Ring, but for me, the star of the show has been the open world itself.
Elden Ring is a truly incredible game, and will be held up as a seminal moment in the industry, much like games like Red Dead Redemption, Skyrim, and The Witcher 3 before it.
