I can get it for one or two really hard puzzles in a game, but elden ring at least had no need for a guide at all
Eh, maybe after they added the NPC icons to the map. At launch, there was basically zero chance you'd complete any NPC quests on your own.
So you're only the second commenter here who said you don't need a guide for elden ring, and definitely the only one that says there's " no need for a guide at all".
Do you mean to get to the next boss you don't need a guide but you still need a guide to fight the next boss?
Did you play elden ring without a guide?
Not the guy you replied to. I think I've looked up guides or tips for bosses like... 3 times in all of the from soft games. Bosses are largely puzzles to be figured out. They're some of the most engaging moments of gameplay, and, barring gimmick bosses, reading a guide for them still doesn't do the work of beating it for you anyway. They'll just give you some things to look for and some general advice, then the rest is on you.
Sounds good, I'm definitely going to give elden ring a shot.
