Elden Ring has received critical acclaim and is currently one of the highest-rated games to release this year. Despite receiving a huge amount of praise from wider media and the playerbase, a number of developers have lashed out at the game. Some of that criticism came from Horizon and Ubisoft developers, who took to social media to chastise the game\u2019s sidequests and UX design.

When comparing games like Horizon and Assassin\u2019s Creed, Asmongold believes that Elden Ring is ahead in terms of its design and player satisfaction. \u201cThe reason that they were so innovative [and] successful, is the fact that they were able to see into the mind of the person and give the person what they want, and also what they need\u2026At the end of the day, Miyazaki and Fromsoftware understand their customer.\u201d Timestamp of 9:17 Of course, Elden Ring isn\u2019t without its problems. The PC release famously ran incredibly poorly at launch and many users experienced a variety of issues, which have since been significantly alleviated. However, Asmongold believes Elden Ring\u2019s success is largely due to two main factors.

There\u2019s [also] no implementation of the viewpoints of the real-world developers, being injected into the game in an overt way.\u201d No matter your stance on Elden Ring and wider open-world games, it\u2019s clear the recent discourse has received a lot of attention from both sides.
