      With Elden Ring, were you expecting a more “living” open world, like The Witcher 3 or RDR2?

        Basically I met the first advirsary and spent 2 hours falling to defeat him. I looked around for another couple hours for something to make defeating him possible. Encountered other creatures I couldn’t defeat. Never opened it again.

        I’m a middle aged guy with a family. If Im gonna “git good” at something, it will be something useful I need in my life, not a soulslike. I play games to relax not to add to my very long list of problems in life.

          This guy? You’re not supposed to be able to defeat him until much later in the game. In the beginning, you just have to avoid him. He patrols a small area in your path, and there are easier enemies just beyond him.

            It was a guy in a kind of valley going into a cave. Regardless, if I can’t make something happen in the first 4 hours of a game, it ain’t for me.
