It feels like just yesterday FromSoftware players were concerned that they'd die prior to the time that Elden Ring Runes arrived, and today we're a month from the time it was launched. Over the past month, dedicated players have eagerly explored every inch of this huge game, leading to great coverage here on MMOexp.com.

If you somehow missed out In case you missed it, here's a quick summary of everything Elden Ring-related we've reported on over the past few weeks.

Elden Ring received rave reviews, with many critics praising the shift of developer FromSoftware to an open-world style (even even if it meant the tutorial a bit difficult to follow). Steam users felt similarly but with some issues about how the game played even on the strongest PCs. My review is arguably the best of the bunch at least because my editors did not force me to squeeze 100 hours of gaming time in a couple of days--was dropped this week. Simply put, Elden Ring is one among the greatest games of 2022.

We quickly discovered the truth about Elden Ring was pure FromSoftware garbage when the trailer leaks a couple of days before the official release. It's enjoyable looking back and trying to understand the meaning of all the proper terms the movie introduced to an at the time, a largely uninterested fan base. I specifically recall wondering what it would be like to kill someone named Dung Eater that, unfortunately, doesn't meet the absurdity of his name in the full game.

I was pretty excited to learn that Patches is present within Elden Ring, and as this made his appearance with Armored Core, Dark Souls, as well as Bloodborne one of the first things I wrote about this game. We had code added earlier than other sites, so the footage we used was made possible by one of the several players who uploaded early footage. After seeing him within the elden ring items buy online myself, I was pleased to find Patches used in differently than his earlier appearances. However, he's the same ol' Jerk.
