For many players completing Elden Ring is already a big challenge as it requires a lot of skill and practice to be able to time dodge rolls, attacks and healing to avoid dying to even the simplest enemies. That being said, there are some fans of Elden Ring who decided they wanted more of a challenge that wasn’t available through natural means, to fix this issue, streamers have begun to use different pieces of equipment to replace their controllers like one streamer who has decided to swap out a controller for her voice.

How has this streamer used their voice to play Elden Ring?

When playing Elden Ring, Twitch streamer Perrikaryal decided that she found the game too easy and has begun using her voice to control her character in Elden Ring. To do this, she has set it up so that her microphone was able to pick up different tones of her voice as she sang into her microphone, and once these specific tones were picked up by the microphone, they would then be translated into the game as different actions to help her progress through the game.

So far, Perrikaryal has progressed quite far into the story of Elden Ring using her voice as her controller and will hopefully continue doing these streams so players can see how far she can get throughout the story of Elden Ring whilst also essentially providing it with amazing background music. So far, many gamers have been quite impressed by this as many Elden Ring players already struggle using a basic controller and miss basic dodges to stay alive, so seeing someone using their voice to perfectly dodge and kill enemies and even bosses is an incredible feat.

There is a fine line between genius and madness.

Since Elden Ring was released, gamers have always been looking for a new challenge to try and make the game more difficult, and many gamers have definitely completed that goal as many gamers have used quite a few different items to play Elden Ring and have put regular players to shame as even using these unique items to play Elden Ring these pro players are still better than a majority of the player base.

Over the past year, we have seen a few different items being used as controllers to play Elden Ring, and if you haven’t seen them, you won’t believe them as there are some players who have used items like a Guitar from Guitar Hero, a Dance mat, playing on two separate screens at one time and there have been a lot of players who added an extra challenge to even using different items by playing Elden Ring with different items and either a no damage or no death run.

Most of these challenges would seem impossible for some, and they can be as they do take a lot of practice and co-ordination that most standard players would never get the time to perfect, as memorising a bosses attack pattern is already difficult, but memorising an attack pattern and memorising a dance to avoid it is also a hard challenge all on its own.

What do you think about these special ways players have beaten Elden Ring? Would you ever try to play Elden Ring using a dance mat or your voice? Let us know in the comments what you think!
