Elden Ring's release has been a massive success, both critically and financially. That said, there are things in Elden Ring that make absolutely no sense.

Elden Ring is a very ambitious project for FromSoftware. It is their first open-world game, and therefore it has the added challenge of taking their Souls formula and expanding it to a looser format. With all of that said, here are some things that absolutely could have been improved in Elden Ring.
