r/Eldenring Jan 12 '24

My Boyfriend bet me $500 that I couldn’t beat Elden ring in 6 months with little to no video game experience. Humor

The rules of the bet:

  1. No magic
  2. Only Melee
  3. No farming for runes
  4. Have to beat the entire game by June, 6th, 2024

I am currently on the last boss of the game with 89 hours played. I hope the last boss doesn’t take me 5 months. 😂

Last boss is def tough but def not 5 months worht lol. Great job! I might just bet a friend some throwaway money to beat the game just so they can muscle through and play the damn game. So many people are scared because of the "difficult" label.

Will you be going for the optional bosses after you beat the game or have you beaten them already (if you did, you'll already know which ones I'm talking about lol. Don't want to spoil)

Yes! I am enjoying the game so I’m definitely not gonna stop playing afterwards

This convinced me to try this with my wife! I didn't give her any rules outside of a vague "don't cheat" though. She usually plays games like stardew Valley and animal crossing. Hardest game shes played was terraria.

She seems excited for it too. Hope she enjoys the game like you did!

Well, Terraria can be super fucking hard to be fair.
