Elden Ring's developers know most players use guides, but still try to cater to those who go in blind: 'If they can't do it, then there's some room for improvement on our behalf' (www.pcgamer.com)

I think the main issue is NPC quests, they are complete nonsense and fail automatically based on arbitrary triggers.

I have 300 hours in the game and I've only seen the default ending ๐Ÿซ

Yeah, this bummed me out in the game, a bit. Not like I was not expecting it though.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Agreed. I don't mind non-intuitive quest steps, but completely missable items, abilities and other content is inexcusable. That's why we have to look up wikis...

[โ€“] Renacles 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

The questlines are so intuitive that some were missing an ending for a few months due to bugs and nobody noticed.

I acknowledge the ambitious scope of the game, but that's actually sad.
