Should I play Dark Souls before Elden Ring?
Should I play Dark Souls before Elden Ring? The short answer is no. The game teaches you the basics of how to play very early on, so you have the controls down at the beginning. From there, you basically have to adapt to everything thrown at you so you can get used to the gameplay dynamic.
How is Elden Ring different from Dark Souls?
While Dark Souls feels more linear and compartmentalized, Elden Ring lets you go anywhere you want anytime across its sprawling landscapes. Just turn your camera in a direction and you’re free to head off like Francisco Pizarro to unexplored locales. And just like Pizarro, your exploits can also get you killed.
Why is Elden Ring more popular than Dark Souls?
Elden Rings Gives Players More Freedom
For the most part, Dark Souls games railroad players along a singular adventure and fall short in developing different parts of the world. Optional bosses can open unique story paths, and new areas are still present, but there isn’t nearly as much freedom as in Elden Ring.
Is Elden Ring casual friendly?
Elden Ring is a notoriously tough game, which is part of the appeal for many. However, the game has much more to offer than just difficult gameplay, with a story and presentation that even more casual gamers would no doubt like to enjoy. Sometimes difficulty can get in the way, leaving players begging for an easy mode.
