What is Elden Ring?

Definitely the gameplay of the year, Elden Ring is a game whose screenplay also featured George R. Martin (Game of Thrones). The setting is Gothic, with a mysterious scenario full of intrigue.

The protagonist of the game is obviously the Elden Ring (the ancestral ring) and the adventures around it. This ring is in fact, together with the Mother Tree, what gives power to Queen Marika and her offspring to rule the Interregnum.

In a prequel that in some ways recalls that of another very famous ring, we will discover that the ring will shatter and that the Interregnum will plunge into an endless conflict.

This is the scenario in which you enter the game, as a warrior of the Senzaluce, with the aim of hunting down and stopping the activity of the demigods. The goal is to recover their major Runes and reunite them to become an Ancestral Lord.

While the technical characteristics required for consoles are standard ones, Minimum and Recommended Requirements have been released for PC . Here they are:

Elden Ring, minimum and recommended requirements

Elden Ring, classes and characters

The character that will embody the player's actions in Elden Ring is highly customizable by the player. Every physical and morphological characteristic of the same is in fact customizable. Skin, eye and hair colour, vocal timbre and age for starters, but not only that, as you can also choose tattoos, hairstyles, war paint, clothes and much more.

Once this is done we will then choose the "starting class". This selection indicates the archetype we want to pursue, for ten different characters who can grow in every field, but above all in their areas of expertise.

There are various skills possessed by the characters, for values that can be increased with experience and training.

Here they are:

Vitality: represents the character's health level

Mind: the level of concentration possessed by the “character”

Temper: resistance to blows and fatigue

Dexterity: can be considered as a multiplier of the weapon's strength

Intelligence: it is a multiplier of sorceries and spells

Faith: as above, but especially for spells

Arcane: This is another enhancement modifier for sorceries and spells

These are the character classes to choose from

Errant knight

“A knight exiled from his homeland and destined to wander. A solid, armor-clad class.”

Balanced statistics for this character who can be considered an excellent choice for those who are not yet familiar with the game. It has good starting equipment and a sufficiently high level of vitality.

Nomadic warrior

“A nomadic warrior who fights using two blades at once.”

Very high dexterity and temper for this very practical and combative archetype.

Hero

“A brave hero armed with a battle axe, descendant of a chieftain.”

This is the archetype with the highest strength value in the game. This, combined with a powerful weapon like the battle ax with which it is equipped, makes it perfect for those who want "action".

Outlaw

“A dangerous bandit who targets weak spots and excels at ranged combat with bows.”

Silent, energetic and specialized in the arcana, he strikes from the shadows and is lethal.

Astrologer

“A scholar who reads destiny in the stars. Heir to the scintipietra school of witchcraft.”

Probably the best character class for those who love using and learning magic and spells.

Prophet

“A seer ostracized for his ominous prophecies. Particularly skilled in healing spells.”

Definitely not the best fighter, but with great abilities regarding faith and mental abilities.

Samurai

“A skilled fighter from a distant land. I am proficient with the katana and longbows.”

Skilled in attacks from afar and with good vitality.

Prisoner

“A prisoner wrapped in an iron mask. He studied witchcraft before his imprisonment, when he lived with members of the elite.”

Very skilled in intelligence and mind spells. Little with weapons but he makes up for them with his mental abilities.

Confessor

“A church spy expert in covert operations. Equally skilled with the sword and spells.”

Another ideal choice for those who adore spells and magical arts.

Unlucky

“A poor soul without a purpose, naked as the day she was born. A club is all he has.”

A well-balanced and well-balanced character, he excels in nothing and is therefore completely moldable by whoever guides him.

Elden Ring

To conclude

As could be assumed from previous experiences (Bloodborne and Demon's Souls) and valuable collaborations, this Open World action-RPG immediately established itself, establishing new records and reference points for the gaming sector.
