THE ELDEN RING (my gosh)

Written by; Anjorin Isaac

​Elden Ring as we know is an action role-playing game developed by From Software and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. It was released on February 25, 2022. Ever since it’s release it sold over 12 million copies, precisely in March, 2022 (what a game). A game with a ridiculous amount of complexity, lol, making sure every gamer (the pro’s inclusive) had a tossle winning a boss fight and having to play again like 20 times (craziest part is getting Killed with two moves from the enemy, after almost ending its life 😢)and prolly got pissed off at some point, because some fuck’n BOSS in the game , decided to be tougher than normal. IMO, I got so aggravated with my console, hitting the console on the table a couple of times, thank the stars, it still works, cos that would have been so shitty for me, if it didn’t. In continuation of my complexity problems and issues with Elden Ring, right, Boss fights like; The one with the Flame Chariot boss😂, we all had our cakes with that “bastard!”, I literally(obviously not myself)  died like 13 times, before getting a hang around that f00l. Godfrey, the first Elden lord, showed me hell as well, bruhh; I had to go on YouTube to watch videos, hoping to find an easier way to kill that guy, RadBrad was that YouTube cheat code for me, so I hopped on his channel right, watching closely at his first attempt and For the most part all I could hear was “JESUS“, oh wow! he knows that name too😂apparently, he made an obvious amount of 9 attempts, before killing Godfrey!

 However, the original time-frame for the game for every player was 50-70 hours, with a total number of 157 bosses in the game(comprising of 9 Demi gods), cheers to us that Stayed on the game for a month or two, before we saw the end of it. And to those creating hypothetical comparisons about Dark souls, being a better soul game, lol. I have just one thing to tell you, GO DO AN OPTICAL SCAN! I promise it helps. I mean bosses like Grafted Scion makes Elden Ring miles clear..I literally just found out that, the Grafted Scion can be defeated, oh wow! Not by me tho, I would prolly just stay back and let my eyes do the watching rather(for the good of my console and my temperament as well).

Here are some of the insane bosses;

-MARGIT THE FELL OMEN

-GOD RICK THE GRAFTED

-RED-WOLF OF RADAGAN

-RENNALA, QUEEN OF THE FULL MOON

-GODFREY (oh shit) THE FIRST ELDEN LORD

-THE FLAME CHARIOT

The most hilarious part of the game were the misleading messages (lol) gets me pissed off all the time, cos I go ahead and do them without a second thought and prolly end up dying or not getting answers I need at all, leaving me asking myself the question..why? Or wtf?? I bet I said wtf? Most in my life playing this game, and literally used the most curse words playing this game as well(just kidding, i could be very uncensored sometimes, yeah I know that’s bad, but I’m working on it I promise🥺) but I assure you it was fun all the wayyy, having to make irrational decisions..DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE and probably die again, then act right.

Me: Thinking grand theft auto V, was that game, because it had multiple ending, welp, I bring you Elden Ring- which has 6 yes, SIX! different endings (crazy right?)

Honestly, IMO it’s a game I would love to play again, again and again, but I just gotta keep a pretentious smile this time, so I don’t get engulfed in my anger and probably break my console for goood this time, hopefully.

Welp, in other words, I preciate y’all, right from the contributors of the game(yeah those guyys) to the players of the game (including the ones that got so frustrated and prolly almost broke their consoles, like I did or you that decided to use the quit button😂, I finished the game, with a massive amount of help, yes! Shhh! We can keep my little secret between us😌, welp, you can as well) and to you reading this right now and later ❤️ 

FIFA Reportedly Wants To Charge EA $1 billion Every Four Years For Name

We now have a Clue to why EA Sports is putting in consideration to changing the name of FIFA, it’s giant football franchise.

The New York Times reports that there’s a dispute between EA, the developer of the FIFA games, and FIFA the worldwide football organization. The disagreement is over cost and new revenue streams.

A new report in the @nytimes states that the dispute between the both parties (EA and FIFA) is much related to cost and new revenue streams. With FIFA wanting to charge $1 billion+ every 4 years for the license and limit EA’s ability to monetize beyond the game itself https://t.co/5gNas9Iz9bpic.twitter.com/hZ9YnOZDMN

According to the articles and facts about the dispute, FIFA wants to limit EA’s money making opportunities to strictly what can be found in the game. EA however, wants to explore monetizing, “highlights of actual games, arena video games tournaments and digital products like; NFTs,” the New York Time says.

Last week, EA said they are exploring the idea of re-naming the EA sports football games. EA also says the FIFA partnership is different than their other official partnerships, meaning the loss of FIFA wouldn’t mean the loss of official team and players names. The license only gives EA the name, logo, and the right to use the WorldCup within the game.

It seems however, that a decision is likely made by the end of the year. EA has already trademarked “EA Spots FC“, which could end up being the new name of the franchise if there seizes you be an agreement.
