Elden Ring's developers know most players use guides, but still try to cater to those who go in blind: 'If they can't do it, then there's some room for improvement on our behalf' (www.pcgamer.com)

I hope not. Part of the experience of a FromSoft game, particularly those in their Souls and King's Field style games, is not handholding the player at all. Not even having an option for it. If you play without a guide and find something cool, and never go online to look anything up, you feel like you're the only person in the world that discovered it. Not like an Ubisoft game where you dont get to discover anything on your own without the game telling you exactly where to go and what to do.
