Not everyone likes every genre of game - so here’s my grouped list:
The “I’m a nerd and like to build things and I like to watch lava lamps flow” Factorio
The “I enjoy tough but fair games that I can totally become OP in once I figure it out” Elden Ring
The “I just want to chill” game Stardew Valley
The “I like to build things” game minecraft Honorable mention-Terraria
The “Metroidvania” game Hollow Knight
The “Arpg” game Diablo 2 Honorable mention - PoE
The “I like action and smashing things in an open world” game Neir Automata Honorable mention - God of war (play one of the originals so you can 1st hate the remake, and then get to THAT point, and then happily eat crow and let Kratos be your baby daddy.
I have so many problems with Elden Ring. I know it is super popular, but the polish just isn't there. Enemies hit you through walls and terrain, you will teleport to the ground dead sometimes when run around the many cliff faces, and most of the character builds seem weak compared to just strength great weapons.
I always hear stuff like this but in hundreds of hours of play on both PlayStation 5 and PC. I've never experienced any serious bugs. It's so interesting to me that experiences can vary so much between people.
It depends on how you play for sure. But considering they hide items and secrets paths everywhere, the camera controls are horrendous. And I do not believe you managed to fight the fire giant and did not experience any bugs.
I've not even beaten the game and I've fallen through the map a few times randomly.
I've beaten the game about 6 times now and while I've certainly encountered minor glitches that made me laugh, I've never had issues that were game breaking at all. And the fire giant included.
