In 2022, Open World games feel like the default type of game that gets released. If a AAA studio is working on a new title, it's a safe bet to assume it'll have some sort of open world. Unfortunately, I think most of these games end up falling flat on their face, with bloated play spaces that waste far too much of the players time. However... that's not the case with Elden Ring.
