From Software has hit the jackpot with Elden Ring; this game became the most sold game ever for the studio that created the Dark Souls saga. With more than 20 million units sold, this is a great milestone for these Japanese developers.
Fans from all over the world are playing the game with new builds and weapons in order to complete it as fast as possible. But some players are not prepared to face their rage if they don’t pass as they want to; rage is a big part of the experience.
Elden Ring players have patience, but they are also very passionate
One of the main characteristics of the Dark Souls community is that they are always looking for new ways to make the experience of this kind of game even more difficult. They set new rules to create a challenge and complete the game with a sense of total accomplishment. This is not applicable to all players; for many, they just want to win the game at any cost. A Reddit user makes the ultimate sacrifice, and his desk discusses the raw fury that Elden Ring can generate in a player.
Reddit user derp3000 posted a simple but very significant image on this social network. Talking about how he just reached Maliketh in Elden Ring, but at an enormous cost. This user demonstrates his intense punching of his desk in response to the frustration that any game made by From Software can evoke.
The post quickly went viral on Reddit, and many other users commented on it full of rage. The particular rule that this player has is that he cannot level up; he was playing RL1.
Elden Ring players really try hard
This particular player was in the middle of an RL1 run, which means that he can level up any rune, so it is a very complicated handicap, which could justify the desk punch. Other users in the Reddit post replied, talking about how this kind of challenge may not be the best for this player. Players are talking about how he must be tough and keep the challenge going. This kind of handicap challenge is very frustrating, but Elden Ring fans love to do it.
Elden Ring will launch the new DLC, Shadow of the Erdtree, on June 21. The expansion will cost $39.99. This content will be available for PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series S/X, and PC. This will be the most ambitious expansion done by From Software; it will need the base game to be played.
