Vaati taught me that there was more to this bang out of game than I ever imagined.

And once I was hooked, I wasreallyhooked.

So hooked that all the other types of games I once enjoyed suddenly ceased to satisfy me.

Each of these so-calledSoulsbornegames laid the foundation forElden Ring, FromSoftwares biggest, most ambitious title yet.

Its also the most popular,dwarfing the success ofDark Soulsjust asits terrifying bosses dwarf the player character.

In doing so, they inadvertently paved the way forElden Ringby introducing countless new players into the fold.

It is buffed by hundreds of content creators, each focusing on different aspects of the games.

But its not just the big fish that know how to attract new players.

The newest game has only expanded the series and creators reach.

That kind of customization wasnt really possible in previous games.

Of course, those tools and mechanics are useless if the player doesnt know about them.

Elden Ringleans more into a power fantasy, FightinCowboy says.

But its still a game about patience and watching your enemy.

He approaches the game in the same way a teacher approaches a classroom.

As of late March, four weeks afterElden Rings release, hisgeneral playvideos and meticulouswalkthroughscounted more than 150 episodes.

FromSoftware knows how popular the independent streamers are.
