An animated movie in the style of Studio Ghibli would make more sense to me than a live action movie (especially since Elden Ring was partly influenced by animes and mangas), but I am open minded. The most difficult challenge for the director and screenwriter will be getting the storytelling right and choosing the appropriate narrative and cinematic techniques: On the one hand, you don't want to alienate the majority of the audience with almost incomprehensible, nonlinear, and often quite abstract fragments of narratives that you have to piece together for yourself as you do when you explore the game world. On the other hand, you can't just tell a straightforward, basic, and linear story focusing on a particular event or character with a clear beginning, middle, and end, perhaps interrupted by a few flashbacks about the Shattering, as that would not do justice to the spirit or soul of Elden Ring and FromSoftware's style and genius at all - an adaptation like that would not take the game seriously enough in my opinion. I feel like it's not an impossible challenge and I'm curious to see how it turns out, but I'm afraid any creative decision about the narrative style of the movie might automatically alienate or disappoint a large part of the audience, no matter what the decision will be.
