Before Elden Ring Items arrived on the scene, it had been a world of opportunities. I never reached explored them. With Tears from the Kingdom, it feels as though a familiar story

Everyone has their favorite part of Elden Ring. For some individuals, it might happen to be a difficult boss battle you eventually overcame. For others, discovering its many sprawling regions for the very first time. Maybe it had been constructing an ideal build, locating the ideal weapon, or some myth you constructed within the game's world due to its open narrative which makes its players co-writers. For me, it had been before the game arrived on the scene.

This isn't intended to be a criticism. Elden Ring just didn't click for me personally, but I am not saying I think it is a bad game. I respect several things about it, but I did not have the patience, time, or investment to git gud enough to carry on with it for very long. That's fine, it takes place. But I still remember how magical the sport was before it arrived on the scene. I camped on the sport's subreddit, seeing the brand-new key art and hearing the speculation. The fans were so pure of heart in those days, with no debates or arguments, no toxicity, no defensive attacks on criticism, no criticism whatsoever, only a bunch of good-hearted chums referring to a game they hadn't even played yet.

I knew it likely wasn't going to be for me personally. I haven't gotten up with Soulsbornes before, strong and concise writing is my favorite thing about a game title and Elden Ring billed itself as abstract and vague by design, even though no one likes bloated quest markers, directionless open worlds seldom click for me personally either. The cards were stacked against me. I wasn't starting Elden Ring unclear about what I was engaging in, but I hoped I could struggle from the current anyway. In the end, it had been too powerful, there have been too many other games, and I figured forcing myself was unnecessary. It's not like games media was lacking people who would let you know Elden Ring was the best game in history.

Now, it's happening once again. I'm watching people speculate over what types of items they are able to combine in Tears from the Kingdom, where Zelda starts her adventure, where Link starts his, how Ganondorf makes it, and what is going on within the story, and I can't get enough of it. Seeing people slap trailer shots together to triangulate sights, or wondering exactly what the dungeon's hold (could they be even dungeons, or perhaps a new thing?) is an excellent experience to witness. For most people, case the appetizer prior to the game. Unfortunately, for me, it could be the high point.

For similar good reasons to elden ring items, I didn't interact with Breath from the Wild either. Again, I understood its greatness. I wrote that I hoped I hated the sequel well before Tears from the Kingdom was announced because I knew that the sport needed to attract those that loved it, which were able to rip it apart and make fresh methods for playing, a lot more than it required to fight itself to attract people much like me.

Still, I am only a girl, waiting in front of the video game, asking it to like me. I do hope I hate Breath from the Wild 2, sure. By which I mean, I hope it will be everything BOTW did and builds on those mechanics. But I also hope I love it, the industry is a far simpler wish. No caveats, no conditions, I just hope I listen to it and finally have it. I dearly wish to. I see the thrill in the trailer, the endless possibilities the sport appears to offer its players. Open-world games are heading in this more directionless direction, and eventually, I have to get using the program. It's an excellent time to start.
