Excuse Me While I Gush About Starscourge Radahn, Elden Ring’s Best Character
11.3.2022
I’m nearing 60 hours with Elden Ring and, frankly, I still have no idea what’s going on story-wise. Like previous Souls games, the lore FromSoftware crafted with Game of Thrones author George R.R.

In the week and change since Elden Ring’s launch, conversations about its difficulty have run the same, tired course as those concerning all its FromSoftware predecessors. The biggest point of contention seems to lie with the player’s inability to pause the game, but it turns out you can pause...
Oops: Elden Ring Players Keep Missing The Combat Tutorial
7.3.2022
