Elden Ring 's Fia the Deathbed Companion's questline is one that is wrapped in secrecy from the start. The NPC who grants the player a blessing with each of her embraces asks the player if she could return a weathered dagger to its owner, and this small, seemingly innocent act feels like an easy way to repay her. However, the handing of this dagger to D then catapults Fia, Rogier, and D into a series of situations that results in all of their dea
The Tarnished of **Elden Ring ** have a lot of blood on their hands, even if they try their best to refrain from violence. Certain NPCs' quest lines will force players to kill other characters in the game, such as the Volcano Manor jobs. But in other quest lines, players will have to make game-changing decisions with little information to support the options they are given. And while some of these choices can seem insignificant and even benign, the mistakes a player makes can lead to the horrid deaths of the Tarnished's closest frie
One mystery revolves around the three colosseums found in Limgrave, Leyndell, and Caelid. Players have found ways to clip through the colosseum doors to see what lies inside, but there is no other way to enter them. The colosseums could be cool structures added to the game. Yet, for a game as detailed as Elden Ring, that seems unlikely. Another answer could be the colosseums are the remains of cut content. However, there is something about these colosseums that make them seem like the groundwork for something big
The prospect of Miyazaki and Martin collaborating on a fantasy game was a salivating one when it was revealed in 2019. Now that the latter's role has been more defined for the public, Miyazaki has also divulged how some of their flow of information wor
Even with Martin's punishing dark fantasy world, many of the inspired character designs give off an air of nobility. Meanwhile, FromSoft's fantasies contain some of the most otherworldly and shocking desi
The mystery is who is this god, and where did they go? Perhaps the god is Elder Dragon Greyoll, who can be found in Caelid. She is a massive dragon, the largest in the game, and described as the " mother of all dragons. " Greyoll’s description is similar to Marika, who is a mother to many of the demi-gods the players must face in the game. However, Greyoll’s inability to move makes it doubtful she was a god. Killing Caelid's big white dragon in Elden Ring gives a decent chunk of runes and unlocks her roar at the Cathedral of Dragon Communion. If Greyoll is not the dragon god, however, perhaps she has connections to them and knows where they are. Based on her size, she may be old enough to have lived when the dragons ruled. Sadly, the only way players can interact with her is by killing
As Martin explained on his personal blog, he isn't that much of a gamer and has only played a few strategy games in his life, __ so it is surprising for most players that he would understand and support the idea of the creation of an open world. It's a relief he did though, as the game undoubtedly provides one of the most astonishing open worlds of the past decade that is worthy of hours of explorat
The expanse of Elden Ring's world means there are plenty of places to stumble upon, or NPCs players might accidentally kill . In this case, players found some branches that allowed them to get over the wall to Selia, getting behind the town, which were then removed in patch 1.03. Interestingly, there are still skips that work for getting into Selia in manners similar to the branches. It might have been more efficient for the developers to add an invisible wall to block all versions of the skip, but they chose not to do
It would be impossible to create plausible worlds and characters without having some inspiration from the wonderful and rich cultures that humanity already has. Nothing can come out of nowhere, and even though the world in Elden Ring is pure fantasy, reality is a good thing to be based on in order to not miss any details in the creation of a varied, complex, and substantial wo
This makes it all the more tragic when his worst nightmare becomes reality all because the player lets out the Dung Eater. Boggart was once a prisoner like the Dung Eater, and he thus has firsthand knowledge of the way the Roundtable member tortures his victims and defiles their corpses. He thus warns the Tarnished to not go anywhere near him, and for those who do not heed his warning, they will find that Boggart will pay for their mistakes, as the Dung Eater murders him in order to plant a Seedbed Cu
In place of the round, wide-brimmed hats associated with sorcerers in western fantasy fiction, the Glintstone Sorcerers seen in Elden Ring frequently wear sculpted stone masks with crowns made of Glintstone Crystal (which empower a Sorcerer's spell-casting abilities at the expense of resources such as Stamina). In-universe, the crystalline substance called Glintstone is what makes the scholarly discipline of Elden Ring Rune Farming Ring 's Glintstone Sorcery possible, while the Azur's Glintstone Crown and Lusat's Glintstone Crown items , looted from mute NPCs encountered during the Sorceress Sellen quest-line, share the following passage in their item descripti
