It has been a long time since Elden Ring was released, and gamers are still awaiting that long-expected Shadow of the Erdtree DLC that was teased all those months ago. However, some gamers have been longing for other content to be added to Elden Ring, and they have turned to the modding community to fill that need.

Keep in mind that some of the mods that are available for Elden Ring that have been incredibly popular tend to be those that allow players to cheat within the game. We will be attempting to avoid these mods and will focus on mods that allow players to change or add certain things to the game that could improve the experience.

Elden Ring Players Are Loving the Numerous Mods They Can Bring to Their Gaming Experience.

Elden Ring has plenty of mods on NexusMods that gamers absolutely love to use.

Even though Elden Ring isn’t even two years old yet, there are some elements of the game that many players feel can be improved, whether that be the combat, the environment, or the characters that are involved in the game’s story.

There are plenty of things that can be improved on, no matter how minor, and thanks to these mods from NexusMods, which have been created by hundreds of Elden Ring players around the world, there is nearly a mod to fill every need.

However, there are some mods that clearly stand out above the rest, as players have been downloading them for ages and using them for just as long, just like the Seamless co-op mod, which focuses on cleaning up the multiplayer experience that is available within Elden Ring, creating better connections, allowing your teammates to help you more, and just in general fixing small glitches that FromSoftware hasn’t yet.

Another mod that players have created to improve the quality of the game is the Elden Ring item and enemy randomiser, which can be used to change the locations and spawns of certain enemies, which provides a player with a whole new game experience, but there are a few downsides to this as it can cause ridiculously tough enemies to spawn in an unsuitable location, causing a potential lockout in the game.

Additionally, there is a massive mod that pretty much entirely changes the game itself, and that is called The Convergence. This mod allows players to add in weapons, spells, change areas, alter the map itself, and so much more, effectively turning the player into a developer for the game.

Why Are These Mods So Popular Within the Elden Ring Community?

Gamers are currently using mods to tide them over until Shadow of the Erdtree releases.

One of the main reasons these mods are so popular with gamers is just the fact that they provide some sense of randomness in a game that most of these gamers will have played to death. For a lot of players, it is fun to replay a game and try something entirely new.

However, once you have tried being a magic user, a two-handed sword wielder, or just trying it with a stick, the game will always get boring eventually. This leads to gamers looking towards mods to bring a whole new sense to the game and provide them with a new experience that even the developers couldn’t think of.

This leaves moderators to fill in the blanks, as there are some things that FromSoftware may not either think of or are willing to put into the game as it would cause the game to become too hard. Like this random loot and enemies, which could cause so many issues for casual players who are just looking to learn a route and take it.

Even though this is a challenge for most gamers, for the professionals who enjoy the challenge, these mods are something that can make the game so much more fun, to the point where some have created their own mods to cause the game to become even harder just for themselves.

What do you think about these Elden Ring mods? Are you looking forward to trying some of these yourself? Or are you still struggling with the base game? Let us know in the comments what you think, and if you have tried these mods before!
