Nah, elden ring actually has a fantastical world with fantastical landscapes, whereas witcher feels generic and bland.
The witcher world feels like a place from our earth, for the most part, if you removed the monsters.
>but muh graphic and locations
Elden ring has more in depth level design than pretty much any open world fantasy game. Shadow keep alone mogs any area in the witcher.
Most open world games are bland both in world design and level design.

I don´t even wanna know how you came to the conclusion. Spells, Weapons and Enemy Variety in W3 is only a fracture of what ER has to offer. Meanwhile ER has practically 0 story (except you read and remembered vaguely what the item descriptions had written) and cinematic bullshit. They have both a completely different focus.

You´re a retard. The open world trend was a bigger travesty which hit the industry than souls clones.

>>Individual dungeons
same shit again. Constantly barking about some abstract shit like "level design" as if that absolves shitty gameplay and shameless recycling within both the franchise and the game. DS1 had that interconnected world and what of it? Its almost entirely cosmetic and it didnt save it from being shittier than even it's predecessor.
>>Large variety of weapons that feel different with further moveset customization similar to the ash of war system
"large variety of weapons" "that feel different" lmao, comedy. Bloodborne has 40 weapons IN TOTAL and it still has more variety and movesets than that overbloated trash heap

>show me open world rpg
I dont care. er may have more weapons than other open world rpgs but thats because combat and flailing your weapon around is only thing it has going for it, and "rpg" is solely tied to type of weapon you are gonna use, absolutely nothing else.

It's very telling when people like you shit talk Elden Ring, but then in the same breath say it would be a great game without the open world elements. You don't even realize you just admitted that the core of the game is great, but the optional content is what bothers you, which is an unbelievably retarded take

>NOOOOOO HOW DARE THEY FILL THE GAME WITH OPTIONAL CONTENT WITH REWARDS AAAAAAAAA I NEED LINEAR GAMES BUT I ALSO SHIT ALL OVER DS3 AAAAAAAAAAAAA

Even DS1 is very linear. It just gives you options on which mostly linear path you want to take first, and it crushes your balls with difficulty & enemy spam if you choose the "incorrect" path.

Elden Ring is a great game. Cope'n'seethe harder. You can complain about the open world side content, but it existing doesn't make Elden Ring bad.

Aesthetics are an element of VIDEO games. You are a soulless faggot with no appreciation for beauty.
>Constantly barking about some abstract shit like "level design
Level design is not "abstract", its the way levels are designed. Pretty simple concept.
>Its almost entirely cosmetic
Exploration and traversal are elements of gameplay, tranny.
You accused me of being an adhd zoomer, but if you have no appreciation for exploration then you are the adhd fag.
>Bloodborne has 40 weapons IN TOTAL and it still has more variety and movesets than that overbloated trash heap
Not really. The ash of war system plus large variety of weapons leads to ER having more variety.
Also, bloodborne is another fromsoft game and not open world.
>er may have more weapons than other open world rpgs but thats >because combat and flailing your weapon around is only thing it has going for it
Nah, it also has better level design, environmental design and exploration. Because its actually unique.
>absolutely nothing else.
Gameplay is king. I would rather a game with good gameplay and exploration than a good story. Your gay dialogue choices don't make a game good.
Most WRPGs have incredibly uninspired plots anyways. They are all the same rehashed garbage with elves, orcs and dragons.

Bloodborne fans to this very day constitute like 90% of the seething you see towards ER. They never managed to cope with ER's higher metacritic score and general regard as the best souls game. They seethed about The Witcher 3 winning the majority of the GOTY's.
Every time a new Fromsoft game has come out in the time since Bloodborne's release, DS3, Sekiro, ER, it's always been accompanied by a sudden uptick in 'Bloodborne will never be beaten' threads.
When Shadow of the Erdtree came out, cementing itself as the obvious contender for not only the best Fromsoft expansion, but also in the upper echelons of the best expansions of all time, Bloodborne fans became even more vexed because they put a unique amount of value in Bloodborne's comparatively miniscule DLC.
You have two types of Fromsoftware fan. One likes most/all of the games for their respective little nuances, and then you have Bloodborne fans, who only like Bloodborne and loathe the rest.

Unique CAN equal good when it comes to entertainment, if it contributes to your enjoyment.
In this case, it does.
And its not just unique, it has better qualities / elements than the typical open world.
I like exploring the fantastical landscapes and levels, and the large amount of weapons and ashes of war keep me entertained when fighting.
The levels are also better than the typical open world.

No. Elden ring is the only open world single player rpg with actual fantasy landscapes.
Other games in the genre don't have fantastical worlds. Only monsters.
In elden ring you have places like

>the underground cities
>forge of the giants
>leyendell
>enir elim

Other games don't have this shit.
ER might have generic lore, but the presentation is not generic.

Those are stories with a real life setting, so world building isn't an element of the story.

>>740182253
Even if you count the games only, its impossible for er to have more worldbuilding than 3 story-heavy games with 2 massive expansions put together
