This game is so complex, so confusing, but one of the most fun games I've ever played. I'm closing in on 24+ hours on the game (all have been streamed on Twitch) and I can't put down the controller. Elden Ring has delivered on what I've been hoping so many other gaming releases would deliver (I'm looking directly at you Cyberpunk and Vanguard).

I've been trying to drop tips for Stoolies on Twitter and Instagram, and in the guide I also answered a bunch of Twitter questions. If you have any questions about the game, feel free to drop them in chat or on Twitter!
