Dr Disrespect has been one of many venturing into The Lands Between since the highly anticipated Elden Ring finally launched to record-breaking hype. Although the YouTube star was left fuming after his initial run, Doc has continued coming back for more with each passing stream. Now claiming he\u2019s the \u201cbest Elden Ring player\u201d out there, he\u2019s clearly taken to Elden Ring\u2019s punishing gameplay loop. Yet while he\u2019s far more positive towards it a few dozen hours deep, it\u2019s still not quite meeting his expectations after near-unanimous critical acclaim. Despite his praise for the overall direction, a few critical issues prevent Elden Ring from being a truly flawless experience in Doc\u2019s eyes. Originally handing out a 6\/10 rating for the game during its first week, Doc was critical of not just the overall grind, but of Elden Ring\u2019s \u201cterrible\u201d camera as well. When asked if his initial score had changed, however, the two-time had far more to say. Doc had nothing but praise for the game\u2019s design in terms of both specific enemies and the overall world. Moreover, he was stoked with Elden Ring\u2019s highly customizable combat. \u201cI haven\u2019t even begun to explore other possibilities with my character yet,\u201d he said. Having mainly stuck to a melee-focused build, he has far more left to explore \u201cin terms of abilities.\u201d Now bringing his rating up to an \u201c8.8\u201d or an \u201c8.9,\u201d his outlook is far most positive. Though even with this higher score, Doc still struggles to understand the near-unanimous praise due to a handful of glaring issues hindering his experience. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of third-person camera stuff going on that I don\u2019t like,\u201d he explained. \u201cI don\u2019t want my camera to go through the bodies of creatures. It seems like we spend a lot of time seeing that stuff when we\u2019re fighting bosses. \u201cHow can they fix that? I don\u2019t know, I\u2019ve heard third-person camera design is tough.\u201d Beyond that, Doc also believes Elden Ring\u2019s menus can be clunky at times, along with the game\u2019s overall control scheme. Claiming it\u2019s \u201csomething you have to get used to,\u201d he continuously finds himself \u201cirritated\u201d by both systems. Doc\u2019s latest Elden Ring comments begin at the 6:10 mark below. Given Doc\u2019s Elden Ring rating has only gone up the more he\u2019s played, there\u2019s still every chance he goes higher in the days and weeks to come. With no signs of completely ditching the title anytime soon, we could see the YouTube streamer completing his first full single-player game in quite some time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr Disrespect praises Elden Ring but claims key gripes stop it from being perfect YouTube: DrDisrespect \/ FromSoftwareWhile Dr Disrespect has since come around on Elden Ring following his early criticism, the two-time still believes a few major issues hold the FromSoftware title back from perfection.
