in fact:

>Elden Ring's combat will be faster than Dark Souls 3, but not as fast as Sekiro
>>There's some contention on this one, as Vaati said he really didn't notice anything different and Kitao said the speed is closer to 3.
>Elden Ring will have combat and ambient music like Sekiro
>Elden Ring will have stealth attacks and backstabs
>The Allot Flask system from Dark Souls 3 will be returning
>PS5 version will most likely have Haptic Feedback
>The new Maiden is supposedly not as attached to you as the other Maidens in Souls, and will have her own agenda and goals
>The decision for no Solo invasions is not yet finalized, and FROM will be listening and changing it back if enough people give feedback
>Possibly more giant spells: A new spell that summons a giant storm cloud that rains down projectiles on enemies, and an even bigger version of Soul Greatsword
>Transformations are probably not in the game. When asked if you could transform, Omnipotent, who leaked many details about Elden Ring said "I wish."
>The stats in Elden Ring should be familiar to you if you played Souls, though apparently there are some new unique to Elden Ring
>About 10 classes (same as in Dark Souls 3)
>Pyromancy is confirmed
>A giant lightning spell that causes the earth to tremor
>New mechanic: Stances, closest equivalent would be Posture in Sekiro. Hitting your opponent enough times will open them up to a devastating attack. Most likely not visible to player and the game calculates it under the hood.
>Fall damage is greatly reduced to reward exploration
>Due to the size of the world and the great distance between Graces (bonfires), killing enough enemies in the open world will restore your HP.
>If you're outside of combat, Stamina is turned off you can perform as many actions as you want. However, when combat begins Stamina is turned back on again.
>There supposedly are a few ways to gain EXP without fighting.
>STR now increases your equip load as well
>You can jump while firing a bow or casting magic
>A new type of Arrow: Sleep Arrows. An arrow that puts even the biggest enemies to sleep, allowing you to sneak past them or get a free shot on them
>Online is reduced from 6 to 4. This is due to the lesser consoles not running at an acceptable rate with 6 players, likely because of the bigger world
>Co-Op partners *might* not disappear after killing bosses, or at least after killing mini-bosses
>New online mechanic: Group Passwords. Players can now set-up a password if they only want to find and see other players with the same password. Think of it like a clan
>There will be more weapons in Elden Ring than any other Souls game. Most if not all of the familiar weapon types will be returning
>Twinblades from Dark Souls 2 are back
>Over 100 Weapon Arts and they can be gained by killing bosses or finding them in the open world
>One WA seems to shoot wind
>There seems to be some restrictions on what WA can go on what weapon. For example, Quickstep can't go on a Ultra Greatsword
>Killing certain enemies allows you to gain there essence and they become a Spirit (Buddy in the JP version). This ranges from a tiny bandit to a giant firebreathing dragon. This cannot be used Online.
>You can level up these Spirits and they'll become stronger the more you use them.
>Some of Spirits are intentionally useless and weak as a joke according to Miyazaki.
>Yuka Kitamura returns to compose the game's OST.
>Weather and time of day does affect Stealth. Example: sneaking at night makes you harder to harder to detect.
>There are different enemies depending on what time of day and what the weather is. More difficult enemies appear at night for example.
>Weather and changing time of day seems to happen in real-time
>There will be multiple bosses and mini-bosses, but the player only needs to kill the main 6 to beat game
>Said 6 main bosses have dungeons and level design more akin to classic Souls where the map is turned off and your left to your own wits.
>Crafting is in the game. For example, players can kill animals like Sheep to craft Dried Meat, which boosts Stamina regen.
>As of right now it's unknown how far the crafting system will go besides making simple items.
>Players must obtain a Recipe first before crafting.
>Illusory Walls will return.

apparently ths got posted on reddit. no clue how real it all is but its claiming to be a bunch of interviews jammed together about gameplay stuff. four fuckin months!!!

Been painfully stopping myself from watching streams or info about the game. I'm so "souped" for Elden Ring, wanna play it blank.

there's going to be a closed network test on the 12th, so a ton of raw gameplay is gonna come out. absolutely torn between keeping as much of this game a surprise as possible and devouring every second of Content

I will devour the content and then hypnotize myself into suppressing the memories so everything is new when I play it.

theyve said this game will have much heavier rpg elements where you need to prep your gear and items for certain dungeons, but that was an interview from ages ago lol. i hope it stays true

They moved toward that in DS3 just by not making you upgrade armor. So I hope it's true

i did the network test of ds3 and it was the whole high wall of lothric stage but with dancer as the boss instead of vordt. i didnt regret participating when ds3 fully released, but i also dont know how my experience would have been different if i hadnt. im hoping to get into this network test because i really want to play elden ring

someone linked me to the horse launcher which was cool but everything else looks like the worst series ever made, thats right, dark souls, exccept now it even WORSER thanks to an open world. honestly this game needs to be scrapped except for the horse launcher, and the horse launcher made into a spiritual sequal to jumping flash, with horses.

elden ring is going to be the first game ever to really nail the horse double jump.

You should simply purchase an Xbox Series X, worlds most powerful console, as I did.

the link has more details but basically all of it is super obvious (last gen 30fps, next gen 60fps in performance mode)

the only thing kinda interesting is that they�re saying it�ll get 60fps on the Series S

That vid's got me pretty fuckin' hyped for this.

Hope there's a way to get a physical map without shelling out tons of money for some "deluxe edition" with other stuff I don't need or want.

No HUD, map on the coffee table, just diving in without knowing anything else.
