Unfortunately this is the ONLY way to play Elden Ring

I don't make the rules

If you're playing the game, then you're doing it wrong. You have to do it in real life.

[JimboCantSleep]

Pov: You're talking to a souls tryhard

[mustafa._.]

My guy, if you're using your eyes to look at the screen so you can play, YOU'RE PLAYING IT WRONG! A true souls player would just use their imagination.

Souls players when they realise a weapon gives them a advantage:

[locobo]

If you have a frontal lobe while playing the game then you didn’t play the game. Your ability to learn from experiences is ruining the game

The proper way to play Elden ring: every time you die, eat asbestos.

[JFN]

Yea sorry guys but if you've taken damage a single time you're just not playing the game right

[Titi-zmgr]

Most rational person on r/Elden ring be like:

[conniptions]

Reminds me of those tryhards who burst a blood vessel if someone uses rivers of blood

[officialagentofthematrix]

If you are playing the game and having fun, you’re doing it right.

If the game provides it, I will use it. As long as I didn’t use extra dollars to get further, everything is fair.

If your ears are bleeding and your controller is holding together somehow after it's 15th Armageddon throw into the floor, and your voice is raw from screaming, your still not suffering enough.

If you can’t have maidens, become the maiden

"if you're having fun, you're doing it wrong" 😂

[C-OBrien]

It’s like Sseth said, pattern recognition is ruining your experience, front lobe lobotomy is the true way to play the game

[skinnywhiteboy]

"If it's in the game, I will use it to my advantage."

[fanglo]

“No breathing” has a stroke and dies while I fight the first enemy

[ken.]

"Not to gatekeep, but the only right way to play is no (every single feature in the game)"

[CptJackPharoh]

If you don’t play elden ring with a USB steering wheel, don’t even talk to me 😤

Starts up the game in the Church of Anticipation:

"real" gamer: You cheated not only the game but yourself. You didn't grow. You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained. It's sad that you don't know the difference.
