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 did the same when it first came out, gave it another try during covid when the remastered version came out, absolutely loved it. Got all achievements even :P

I'm believing it now that so many people have explained how much they like the games to me and why.

Even watching the beginning of this playthrough to see how far I got through dark souls 1, which was just to the asylum demon, it looks awesome.

I think I just really would have liked some explanation of any of the gameplay mechanics in a summarized form that I didn't have to hunt for.

But I'm going to start with elden ring, because I do like open worlds, and I'm just going to see how that grabs me.

Did you play DS1 remastered on the switch?

Nah, pc gamer here, I honestly can't imagine it runs very well on Switch :/ especially when you get to Blight town

Maybe that was part of the problem I had. I figured since it was an older game it wouldn't be a big deal.

I'll definitely try the PC version next time.
