Elden Ring

In this episode, Michael and Max take a deep dive into the game that put their friendship on hold for two weeks. They struggle (and fail) to unpack the lore without the help of Vaatividya, examine how Elden Ring compares to other open world games, and contrast it against the Souls series. The boys also get sidetracked by Max’s staggering incompetence, beg the Souls community to stop gatekeeping FromSoft titles, and debate whether Horizon is any good.
