News on development regarding the collaboration between novelist George R. R. Martin and FromSoftware, studio behind Dark Souls, has been pretty sparse, ever since Elden Ring's reveal at E3 2019. Now, we've got some new information about the game, though fans may be a little disappointed to hear it; FromSoftware has delayed Elden Ring. You won't be waiting for that much longer for it though--initially planned for release this Jaunary, the launch date has been pushed back to February 25th. Also announced today was a brief tease that there would be a closed network test taking place sometime this November.

I am all for them pushing the release date if it means they get to polish it up. Even though DS3 was an amazing game and a fantastic way to bounce back from what DS2 was, knowing all the content that had to be cut is still a sore spot and I wish they had taken more time developing it.
Here's hoping that ER will make up for all that could have been.

Of course, it's not a modern game without delays.

Oh...ahem...it's just a month. That's fine then. I was beginning to wonder why we couldn't pre-purchase it yet.

Lol Kinda reminds me of a certain other triple A title that everyone looked forward too. *cough*cyberpunk*cough*

Except not at all. It's a familiar formula on the same engine they've been using (DS3/Sekiro). The only big changes are an open world and mounts/mounted combat. And while I grant you that those are indeed some pretty big changes, it's not claiming to "rEvOlUtIoNiZe EvErYtHiNG" like Cyberpunk was. People more or less know what to expect from Elden Ring.

The 3D modeling looks amazing, but those physics and animations are suuuper clunky

Physics have always been kinda janky in FromSoft games, but the jump animations shown here are obviously unfinished. I'm betting it'll differ based on equip weight.

Why don’t they rush out a game then just release “updates” as they fix the bugs? They don’t make games like they used to.
