Elden Ring Cheeses | Tips & tricks

By Ivan Lerner of 3djuegos.com When they told me that FromSoftware was making a soulslike multiplayer video game, I could never have imagined what I was about to try. One of the big surprises of this edition of The Game Awards 2024 has undoubtedly been Elden Ring: Nightreign , and at 3DJuegos we have had the opportunity to test it extensively. Today I come to tell you about my experience in the six hours that I was able to be at the controls of the most peculiar title of the modern FromSoftware. I'll tell you one thing in advance, as soon as I can try it again, it will take me a long, long time to let it go. If I had to be reductive and define Nightreign in a few words, I'd say it's Elden Ring's Hunt: Showdown , but without any PvP. The new title in FromSoftware's already-established saga is an open-world cooperative multiplayer game (i.e., PVE) in which up to three players can face tons of enemies. The Japanese made a big deal of calling it "a session-based ga...

  Margit, the Fell Omen, is an intriguing and enigmatic character in Elden Ring , deeply tied to the lore surrounding the royal lineage of the Golden Order and the fractured events of the Shattering. His identity and role in the game's story are layered with mystery, as he is not merely a standalone character but a manifestation of something greater. Margit's Role and Identity Margit is introduced to the player early in the game as a major obstacle on the path to Stormveil Castle, the fortress of Godrick the Grafted. He acts as a gatekeeper, challenging players to prove their worth before entering the Lands Between's treacherous legacy dungeons. However, Margit is not who he initially appears to be. He is later revealed to be an aspect or manifestation of Morgott, the Omen King, one of the demigod children of Queen Marika and Godfrey, the first Elden Lord.

Bloodhound Knight Darriwil is a boss found in Elden Ring at the Forlorn Hound Evergaol in Limgrave. Facing this boss is optional and not essential for progressing in the game, but defeating him will reward players with a valuable item and a number of Runes. This encounter can take place early in the game and may prove challenging for players who are not well-prepared.
