Elden Ring FAQ
Short answers to the questions people actually search before they play ELDEN RING.
Is it as hard as Dark Souls?
You have more tools: summons, stealth, overleveling. It is still a FromSoftware game.
How long?
40–80 hours for a first ending, more if you 100% and DLC.
Co-op?
Summon signs, passwords, and invasions. It is session-based, not a shared world MMO.
Best starting class?
The one whose weapon you want to swing. Stats get remapped; the early kit does not.
