600Like many of his half-siblings, Miquella has strayed away from following the Greater Will despite being chosen by it as a possible successor of the Elden Ring. Therefore, Miquella decides to create a great tree on his own in an attempt to replace the Erdtree and make it so that the citizens of the Lands Between don't need the Grace of the Greater Will. Miquella uses his own power to nurture the Haligtree, becoming its core in hopes that it will grow into a great tree that can rival the Erdtree, break his curse of eternal childhood, and free his twin sister Malenia from the curse of Scarlet Rot that eats away at her b

**Elden Ring ** features tons of references and nods to FromSoftware’s previous games. The infamous NPC Patches is notable, though many players are aware of his presence and know it as something of a recurring joke. However, several Easter eggs fuel the continuous speculation on a connection between the universes of Elden Ring , Bloodborne , and the Dark Souls series. There's no definitive proof that any of these share a continuity, but Elden Ring 's Easter eggs supply compelling implicati

When Radagon and the Elden Beast are defeated, Marika’s body reappears more broken than before. From here, the player may choose their desired ending, most of which require placing Marika’s head back on her body. That’s the extent to which the player "interacts" with Queen Marika. It can be argued that her role is significant enough, and any more screen time may diminish her role in the story. However, she leaves plenty of unresolved plot threads, such as her potential connection to the Eternal Cities and Ranni, the Witch . Plus, Marika could prove to be an exciting boss bat

As with any internet community, there are trolls, and Elden Ring players quickly realized they could block players from certain aspects of the game by leaving messages to prevent clicking on them. The meme clearly shows how the rest of the community felt about those prankst

The most common path is to bring her to the Forge of the Giants, so she may sacrifice herself as kindling to burn down the Erdtree. Alternatively, the player may embrace the Three Fingers to activate the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending, which Melina strongly warns against. In this case, an extra scene will play at the end of the game featuring Melina walking through the ashes of the Erdtree. Her typically closed eye is now open, glowing a bluish, purple color. She vows to hunt down the Tarnished and deliver Destined De

Understanding the Erdtree requires knowledge of the Lands Between before the Outer Gods, particularly the Greater Will, take an interest in it. Outer Gods that are seeking power would need to have a reason to choose the Lands Between as the place they seek to spread their influence. The Greater Will wouldn't put in the effort and send the Elden Ring to a land if it doesn't gain anything from controlling that land. What the Greater Will is likely after goes back to a point on the timeline before Elden Ring begins . The first hint at what the Greater Will wants is in the Aspects of the Crucible description, which says, " This is a manifestation of the Erdtree's primal vital energies - an aspect of the primordial crucible, where all life was once blended together." Any object or being capable of holding all life blended together would certainly be a target for the power-hungry Outer G

While one would hope that these players still fulfilled their daily tasks and jobs on time, it's very likely that Elden Ring took a priority for some, best souls-like Titles depicted comedically in the meme. The amount of time players spent on Elden Ring likely led to players finding the multitude of hidden details that the game has to of

Primarily coupled with a rider, the Flame Chariots are huge, swift foes that spit fire and are always found within Hero's Grave Dungeons. Backstabbing its driver is the one surefire way to reap its extravagant rewards, which is tricky since they tend to linger by wa

Even though the player defeats Mohg, Miquella’s cocoon remains in the Mohgwyn Palace and is broken open with his long, withered arm hanging from it. Dialogue with Sir Gideon Ofnir implies that Miquella is still alive and merely asleep in the cocoon. This is a clear hint indicating that the DLC may take place inside Miquella’s dreamworld. It’s reasonable to assume that Miquella will be a major boss fight, especially since the Tarnished defeated Male

Queen Marika the Eternal is the catalyst for the game's events. She is the one who shattered the titular Elden Ring , throwing the Lands Between into a brutal war called The Shattering . Throughout the game, the player finds churches and statues dedicated to Marika. Several NPCs even tell stories about her. When the player finds her seemingly imprisoned inside the Erdtree, her body is broken, and she doesn’t speak. Instead, she transforms, confirming one of the biggest plot twists in the game: Radagon and Marika are one and the s
