I don't replay games often, but I did several playthroughs of Elden Ring when it came out. It's a 10/10 game and nothing beats playing it for the first time blind.
However, the mountaintop of the giants is fairly lacking and the boss rush at the end leading up to Radagon and the Elden Beast feels rushed. I also prefer the Godfrey fight over the final boss.
True, the mountaintop could have been a bit more Inspired for a zone locked behind a lot of progress. Even more underwhelming if you compare to Farum Azula.
True Godfrey was one of my favorite boss both times just because i love the character and ambiance. I remember making a build of a viking with two axes and listening to brothers of metal.
For some reason I can't see your comment in the thread. Maybe I can reply here.
The walk out into Liurnia from Godrick's castle and the elevator down into Nokstella are such beautiful moments, perfectly done, without even a cutscene. The closest I've seen in another game is seeing Touissant for the first time in Witcher 3. It's a land of fairytales.
I deleted it because I didn't quite capture what I wanted to say.
But you see what I'm saying. I've never felt so small, but so enthralled by the environment
