Once Maliketh is defeated, you will be transported to Leyndell Capital for the final push to become the Elden Lord. The Erdtree Your fight through Leyndell Capital a second time will take you to the Elden Throne.

Definitely my game of the year. To much going on and to good looking for it not to be..Still think it's too bad no easy mode to let more people enjoy it, not everyone can play 50 hours a week like I've been, but that's up to them. I wouldn't have gotten nearly as far as I have w/o people joining me. For the Radahn fight all I did was continually summon warriors out of the ground while rt101 drew his agro. I only beat the twin valiant gargoyles b/c D destroyer of death got 1 of them to fall off the edge.Marika's offspring, demigods all, claimed the shards of the Elden Ring known as the Great Runes, and the mad taint of their newfound strength triggered a war: The Shattering. A war that meant abandonment by the Greater Will. Can we make the horse change speeds? I feel like horse games - Witcher 3, BOTW - the horse always has speed variation. I do know how to jump, assigning jump to the jump button is the only normal thing this game does.😂 The following bosses are not mandatory to complete the game. These include optional dungeon bosses, field bosses, as well as hidden bosses that only appear under certain conditions, such as a time of day. So I leave the Capital hardly fighting a knight and running away from that tree dragon monster thing. I did beat the minor tree avatar, guy was too slow and big for even me to lose too. I'm supposed to find dungeaters body, I gave him the seedbed seed I'd found while I was seeing the 2 Finger Crone and buying that 55FP ghoult summon (which the stupid bandit just laughed at), but that can wait until I level up a bit more exploring the mountains. There are 2 map locations on the map, those are my next 2 stops. Oh and turning on Morgott's great rune. I can't even see a tower on the map that looks like it may be it. My kid has told me where all the other ones were, sometimes they make sense, sometimes they don't. 🤷‍♂️

At this point, Elden Ring is a critically-acclaimed title that is no doubt going to be up for a wealth of Game of the Year nominations. The reception to the game has been extremely positive, with yours truly giving it a glowing review. Take a look at my Elden Ring review for my full thoughts, but the take away is that the game has exceeded my expectations. If your left hand is empty (or if certain special weapons are equipped) you may not need to switch to a two-handed grip to activate the skill of the weapon in your right hand.The release window for this game is unlikely to match FromSoftware’s traditional March-April, and is more likely to fall into Dark Souls’ September-October release. Look for other merchants and get a bow if you are fighting with a melee weapon. They are very useful for pulling individual enemies off groups so you can kill them one at a time. Once you reach the Altus Plateau, the next goal will be to reach Leyndell, Royal Capital. The Capital is the central location in Elden Ring, where the ruling demigods reside. To reach this location, you will need to travel northeast from the Grand Lift and then east up the large steps toward the center of the map. In the event you don’t want to get the Dectus medallion, you can always fight your way through the Ravine-Veiled Village and up the cliffs. To reach this location, start at the Bellum Church in the Bellum Highway. On the northwest side of the church will be a hole in the ground that leads down to the water.
