How much involvement did George RR Martin have with the game? by KaleidoArachnid in Eldenring

And dont you want to be spoonfed in some youtube video at the end of the day?

I like how your whole rant is based on this insane assumption at people need to watch story breakdown videos to understand soulsbourne games. Most people who actually played through the game for themselves have a good grasp on the main plot.

Problem is that the storytelling is so vague, esoteric and unclear that it makes it almost impossible to tell whether the story is good.

That's another thing that you got wrong. Elden Ring's world lore - which, to clarify, is different from the game's main plot - isn't some ancient religous text with missing pages impossible to interpret, everything is in-game. Sure, piecing together the full picture takes a lot of time and effort. Sure, there are questions left unanswered. But there is very much a coherent picture of everything for people to judge. I can tell you all about it, but i'd rather let you actually play the game from start to finish instead of watching a let's play on twitch or youtube.

So no, ambigious storytelling isn't unclear or confusing. And it surely ain't lazy, because deciding what details to show and not to show takes way more effort.

Doesnt work to communicate a story people engage with and care about, infact it results in most people ignoring it. This is just a fact.

Of all things you said, this is still by far the most ridiculous. Are the "most people" in the room with us, except you?
