PC Gamer - UK (2022-02)

(Maropa) #1
The thing that really wowed
me when I first played Dark
Souls wasn’t the brutal
combat, mysterious story, or
even the bleak aesthetic. It
was the level design – the way
its areas layered one upon
another, elegantly threaded
with shortcuts to constantly
reinforce your sense of how
all the pieces fit together.

So I’m absolutely fascinated to
see how FromSoftware bring those
sensibilities to a vast open world for Elden
Ring. Even just in our hands-on time so far,
we’ve seen a setting of wonderfully ambitious
scale – and in our cover feature, we’ve delved
into every corner we can.

Spent more time with the
new Intel CPU than is
healthy. Can love bloom,
even on a motherboard?

Looked back on 2021, in
order to complain about
too many RPGs looking
back even further.
