So far I don't think any of the sidequests provide anything more than lore (just found out this isn't true).Īny soulsborne fan might enjoy this for the difficulty and complexity of the boss battles, but that's just about it. I honestly haven't cared too much about any of the lore or exploration but I'll veer off the beaten path every once in a while to find any collectibles. I'm still in NG, but I'm sure I'll enjoy trying other builds in postgame. The ability to respec at any time is a nice feature, making this seem more like a sandbox game. Battles are extremely tight and are often more a test of endurance than skill. Wherein mistakes are somewhat tolerated generally in a Soulsborne game, here if things go south for you, your run ends pretty quickly. Otherwise the game just feels like a tightly difficult boss rush.

#ELDEST SOULS TIME TO BEAT PS4#
There is a native PS5 and the game is compiled for Series S|X but there are no features specific to those platforms aside from increased loading and the potential for increased performance in any case where drops existed.ĭoes buying the game on PS5 get the game on PS4 and vice-versa? Is the game enhanced on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S|X?
The other mode is the “Arena” where you will fight those bosses (and their NG+ variants) but without the increasing stats you get in NG+ One is replaying the game with your current points and equipment (with the latter increasing in strength as you collect them again) as you face off against stronger bosses with new attacks and mechanics. The video below goes into more details, build variety is a big focus for the game: You will also acquire an ability shard from most of the bosses you defeat that will give you a skill reflective of that boss’s techniques those shards can also be infused into your own base attacks and mechanics to alter your playstyle even further. You have three skill-trees (windslide, berserker slash and counter) you are able to progress through and each of those trees has two branches that often have multiple options to pick from. You move through a passive (no enemies) world talking to NPCs and completing optional quests for them such as retrieving an item and then going after the boss of that region. The developers estimate a 6-7+ hour playtime for a first run, but that will greatly depend on player playstyle.
