    I barely time to game, but have recently sunk 60 hrs into Elden Ring - with no intention of stopping! It is phenomenal!

      The little red ball things that give you health when you kill them make exploring the map so much fun. I made it a challenge to see how far I could explore without resting at a grace by actively seeking out those red ball enemies and it was so much fun.

      I’m finding it a bit underwhelming to be honest. It was so hyped, but it just feels like Dark Souls 4. I don’t find the open world really adds a lot apart from a lot of empty space filled with crafting components. The worlds in souls and sekiro were so carefully crafted and put together and I feel like the open world ruins that a bit. I guess after Sekiro did something similar but significantly different, I was expecting Elden Ring to be a bit more innovative. If I hadn’t already played the hell out of the three Dark Souls games I might enjoy Elden more. I’ll probably still beat it though and might change my opinion by the end - I certainly hated Sekiro and Dark Souls at times before I came to love them.
