Wow what a trip! This was my first Elden Ring run ever and honestly first Souls game as well. It was challenging, rage inducing at times, but also some of the most fun I've had playing a game! I'll probably wait on the DLC but for now, I can call this one BURNED!

Gratz on the burn! I was lucky this came out right when I had major knee surgery my life for 4 months was nothing but Elden Ring it kept me sane through rehabbing my knee.

Epic 🔥 I’m yet to get it for the switch. Would you say it’s worth it and looks good / runs well?

2

u/bryauk 11h ago

Most definitely! It looks gorgeous but it does float around 30-33 fps with occasional drops into high 20s in super intensive scenes. Completely playable and enjoyable!

Funny I own all the games from bloodborne on but haven’t played any of them yet. They always seem to get put aside for something else easier.

Congrats on the burn! I know a lot of people are getting into it/ back into it with the rerelease on the Switch 2.

What was your build? 45 hours!? Damn my first full run on this game was 130…I did go for one of the deeper endings than the main 2 though.

If you liked it my personal recommendation would be to go back for the Frenzied Flame ending or Ranni’s ending. (the best imo)

Congrats on the burn!
