Arise now, ye Gold-Bloods. Ye Gods who walk as men. The power of The Greater Will guides us all!

Godrick, Shambling Lord of Stormveil

Malenia, The Rotting Blade

Maliketh The Farum Reaper

Miquella, The Gold Hearted

The Beastly Lord, Mohg

Renalla, The Moonlight Griever

The Treacherous God-Eater

And Banished Son Morgott, The Omen King!

And one other whom the ring would infest. A son of unending strength. Wait in the rot, in the lands between. To guard your piece of the Elden Ring. And slay the Elden Lord.

That's it, the boss fight you hate the most, not necessarily linked to the difficulty

I personally hate the Valiant Gargoyles. They're incredibly annoying, God.

I keep on trying to look up what they're generally each good at, but all I keep getting is that one scales with Faith and the other with Intelligence and other obvious things. Can someone tell me their other differences?

I am thinking of buying the game and I have a few questions:

How long would it take to complete the game with out doing side quests?

What’s the world like? Linear or free roam?

Are there interact able NPC?

Could it be easily played by a beginner?

Is there a lot of room for character role play?
