Elon Musk joined the community of Elden Ring fans and recently tweeted that the game was the most beautiful art he had ever seen. For most players, this news comes a little bit late, but it is appreciated that the CEO of Tesla recognized the magnificence of the RPG that continues to break records and set itself as the best game of recent ye

Multiplayer elements have been part of FromSoft's Souls-like RPGs since Demon's Souls , with Elden Ring expanding on that approach in an open-world setting. The context of this format was key to making multiplayer a realistically accessible part of the game, given that these games are already famous for their difficu

Coincidences that get misinterpreted by people who are grasping at straws on symbolisms are often, and that was the case with some G, R, R initials that were being found across the Elden Ring . The names of some creatures and characters were written by the author, but that was about

It is not clear how Martin contributed to the idea of the game being an open world, but apparently, even though Miyazaki and the team of FromSoftware had already considered building such a map, new knight Classes George reinforced the plan, according to Forb

According to Miyazaki in the Famitsu interview, "Since this work and the production of Sekiro were in parallel, there was not much direct feedback from Sekiro ," and "However, since I directed both, it is certain that they influenced each other." This becomes apparent when playing through Elden Ring 's more fluid and flexible combat sys

The prospect of Miyazaki and Martin collaborating on a fantasy game was a salivating one when it was revealed in 2019. Now that the latter's role has been more defined for the public, Miyazaki has also divulged how some of their flow of information wor

The sorceries of **Elden Ring ** 's magic system are vast and varied. There are many schools of thought when it comes to Intelligence-based wizardry in the Lands Between, with some finding power in the moon while others find it in the stars. Consequently, there are long histories and traditions surrounding the different sorceries that explain where they come from and how they funct

Perhaps the strangest creatures in Elden Ring are the Living Jars – ambulatory ceramic vessels of varying size and stone-like limbs, stuffed to the brim with corpses sealed under a lid of wax. The first Living Jar players can encounter, stuck in a pit in the Limgrave area, is Elden Ring 's gregarious Iron Fist Alexander , who pits himself against different challenges in foes in the hopes of becoming a true warrior. After joining forces with the player to defeat the Starscourge Radahn boss and stuffing himself with the corpses of warriors from an old battlefield, Iron Fist Alexander can be found bathing in a lake of lava in Mr. Gelmir, and will gift the player with a literal Jar to wear as a helmet (this jar helmet happens to be the signature headgear of the legendary Malenia-slaying Elden Ring co-op player called "Let Me Solo He

Elden Ring 's magic system is divided into two main camps: Incantations and Sorceries. While the former is dedicated to the Outer Gods, the latter gains its power from the indifferent celestial bodies of the night sky. The astrologers were consequently the first practitioners of sorcery in Elden Ring , as they are very familiar with the movements of the st

The incantations of the Two Fingers mostly deal with healing, curing, and fortification. This is because many of the servants of the Two Fingers are Finger Maidens, who serve as assistants to Tarnished and thus use magic to tend to their Tarnished's needs. However, some incantations like Darkness and Assassin's Approach highlight that the Two Fingers do make use of hitmen in Roundtable Hold to hunt down enemies that stand against the Greater W

As a consequence of their stronger control of the flame, the Fire Monk incantations resemble those of the Two Fingers and Golden Order. However, what is notable about these incantations is that they defeat effects from Outer Gods like Scarlet Rot and the Golden Order. Spells like Flame, Cleanse Me explain that the fire of the fell god causes fear in the Outer Gods, which is what allows it to have this eff

The Aberrant sorceries are one of these unique schools of magic. The Aberrant sorcerers were criminals banished to the Mountaintops of the Giants long ago, where they found their " blood star ," according to the Briars of Punishment Spell. This Blood Star gains power through blood sacrifices according to Mad Tongue Alberich's clothing in Elden Ring , which explains why the Glintstones on his suit and the Aberrant sorcerers are

In place of the round, wide-brimmed hats associated with sorcerers in western fantasy fiction, the Glintstone Sorcerers seen in Elden Ring frequently wear sculpted stone masks with crowns made of Glintstone Crystal (which empower a Sorcerer's spell-casting abilities at the expense of resources such as Stamina). In-universe, the crystalline substance called Glintstone is what makes the scholarly discipline of Elden Ring 's Glintstone Sorcery possible, while the Azur's Glintstone Crown and Lusat's Glintstone Crown items , looted from mute NPCs encountered during the Sorceress Sellen quest-line, share the following passage in their item descripti
