Elden Ring Seamless Co-Op Mod Is Like Easy Mode, But Better

Past your first couple of enemies, you’ll find a corpse with one Golden Rune [5] on him. From this item, face northeast. You’ll spot a passage ahead guarded by two soldiers. Dispatch the soldiers and the Land Octopus further in. Make sure to loot the Smithing Stone [4] growing out of the wall near the entra

My experience with the Seamless Co-op mod shows how just that little bit more conventionality in Elden Ring can open the game up to people who'd never have even considered playing the game solo. Yes, you trade some of that delicious sense of solitude as you explore its terrible yet beautiful broken world, and yes everything is a little easier, but the boss fights are still riveting, and the Lands Between are still one of the most mysterious, compelling game worlds to explore, filled with lore and secrets for those who wish to seek them out.

Elden Ring's massive commercial appeal as 'an open-world RPG from the mind of George R. R. Martin' (ostensibly) has pulled people into its maelstrom who'd never have considered playing a game like Dark Souls or Bloodborne - maybe even explicitly avoided them due to their daunting reputation. I've no doubt that Elden Ring Weapons Ring has opened many peoples' eyes to the wonder of FromSoft games, but I've also seen the Facebook and Twitter posts of confused (and relatively casual) gamers who have struggled to understand what this weird-ass game wants from them. What superficially may look like a Skyrim or a Witcher 3 is anything but.


Putting the player in control of Fury, one of the horsemen of the apocalypse, on a quest to capture the escaped Seven Deadly Sins, Darksiders III takes advantage of the fascinating lore of the series to craft a worthy Metroidvania-style game. Not everyone loved this significant departure for the series , but with combat simpler and more repetitive than previous entries, it works as an easier Soulsl


The next passage lets you out into a hallway of miners. In this passage, you’ll find a corpse to loot on the left side with one Golden Rune [5] on it. Just past the corpse, around the pillar to the right, you’ll find one Smithing Stone [4] growing from the w


Tough platforming and difficult bosses have given Hollow Knight a deserved reputation as a challenging game, but it still belongs among the easier Soulslike games for a couple of reasons. For one thing, its beautifully dark hand-drawn artwork and atmosphere mean that, though dying a lot may be inevitable, it doesn't feel as frustrating as other ga


Be careful of the room beyond. It’s a trap. Vulgar Militiamen are lurking in the corners of the cave, and they’ve set many of their poison traps around the ground—especially clustered around the corpse with an item across the room. Hug the left cavern wall and follow the room around that way; this will allow you to get the jump on the Vulgar Militiamen one at a time and fight them on your own te


Just outside of this boss fog, you have three possible summoning options : Blackguard Big Boggart and Great Horned Tragoth will always be present, and Millicent is an additional option if you’ve advanced her questline far enough. You can only summon two for the fight, however. The summons are not required for this fight, but they’re a nice option to h

Elden Ring 's bosses are no exception to this, and given these games' brand of dark fantasy, many of these characters' backstories are steeped in tragedy. Malenia is undoubtedly among the first to come to mind, but even the more subdued bosses such as the Ancestor Spirits make for emotional encount


With a board game in development , the emphatic acclaim of FromSoftware's Elden Ring is the latest in a long line of challenging fantasy epics, and each of the creative team's games has been memorable in part due to their boss fig


After the room is cleared, head down the western tunnel. You’ll encounter a single guard kneeling and looking over a ledge beside a ladder. At the bottom of the ladder, you’ll find a miner whittling away at the wall along with a soldier waiting beneath the ladder platf

I was delighted when a couple of my closest friends (who I'd class as moderate gaming enthusiasts) bought Elden Ring, but I never explicitly recommended it to them, knowing that the rules of its unforgiving and distinctly 'FromSoft' world might be difficult for them to adapt to. Despite me pouncing at every opportunity to help them, the by-design awkwardness of co-op summoning in the vanilla game meant that there was only so much I could do.

The Elden Ring Seamless Co-op mod does a few key things that make the game way more accessible. In fact, the mod morphs it from being a predominantly single-player game where with a bit of faff you can call on players to help you in times of need, into a full-on co-op experience. The mod lets up to four players adventure together seamlessly, removing barriers so that you can cross fog walls together, all ride your own Torrents, and explore the entire game world without disconnecting. You can even vote on fast-travelling together. It removes pretty much all friction from the co-op aspect of the game.
