Some Elden Ring Fans Think the Endings Are Too Short

gamerant.com:

Elden Ring has been out for long enough now that any fans who have had an opportunity to play it have likely beaten it one or more times. Elden Ring’s length is deceptive at the beginning when the player’s map is shrouded and obscured, and an average, casual playthrough may take upwards of a hundred hours to complete, depending on how much players explore.

Then, beating the game is only part of its longevity as FromSoftware games commonly feature multiple endings that players can achieve. All endings have likely been exhausted by devoted players at this point in time, and preferences to which endings are liked best are sure to be a large topic of discussion. But from branching questlines that appear and certain NPCs players will not even see if they are not following particular paths, some fans feel short-changed when it comes to their achieved endings.

Redditor u/DaviMessias15 puts forth what they believe to be an unpopular opinion when they say they think Elden Ring’s endings are too short. In particular, DaviMessias15 believes that they are too short relative to how long the game is, with each ending only consisting of a cutscene that lasts for less than a minute. Other fans have since offered their shared thoughts on DaviMessias15’s opinion, stating which endings they found the most satisfying and how they appreciate Elden Ring’s arduous journey more than how it may end.

For example, players seem collectively dissatisfied with Elden Ring’s default or base ending, where they are simply treated to a shot of their character avatar sitting on the throne atop Leyndell. Other fans believe some endings are too similar to one another without enough distinguishable dialogue
