However you prefer to play. Miyazaki (the director) has said that he wants Elden Ring to be the kind of challenge that anyone can overcome in their own unique ways with their own unique strengths.
Also, I hated hard video games before I first played Sekiro in 2019. Most hard games are just frustrating and monotonous, no so much difficult as they are restricting and frankly boring.
Then I played Sekiro, an extremely difficult and merciless game that was also the most exhilarating shit I’d ever played in my life. After that I fell in love with all the DS games and Elden Ring. Difficulty in these games is less about being hard for the sake of being hard, the difficulty is more about immersing you in the world and in the story and setting up big climactic encounters and story moments.
A game like Call of Duty (on insane) is hard for the sake of being hard. It’s not fun, it’s bullshit.
Games like Elden Ring are hard for the sake of immersion and actual fun lol. So I’d say dive in if you are even moderately interested.
Elden Ring pisses me off with how easy it can be at times lol. Doing no spirit-summon runs made me appreciate it more, because Elden Ring can be an absolute joke in terms of difficulty if you know what you’re doing and go for the chicken shit meta builds lol.
