One poor Elden Ring player has been trudging around for over 360 hours without realizing that the game has a mount.
There aren't many games that scale as well as those from FromSoftware. Elden Ring. From the opening hours, the game already seems huge, and then you end up teleported to an endgame area and realize how much ground you'll have to cover on your journey.
With the imminent arrival of Shadow of Erdtree DLC and his set of new weapons, bossesand locations, Lands Between will get even bigger. Director Hidetaka Miyazaki has already confirmed it The DLC will feature a new area larger than Limgrave..
Most players will get a lot of use out of Elden Ring's spectral steed Torrent to mitigate the game's large size. Unfortunately for one player, he spent almost 400 hours in Elden Ring before realizing that there is a faster way to get around.
Brought to the game community by a Reddit user. The bagel bearerScreenshots were shared of a Discord conversation that began with a player asking, "What the fuck is a Torrent?"
Concerned players then explained that all players have access to the adorable horse-goat and its handy double jump ability. The surprised player revealed that in their 360-hour save file, they had "never touched" the Spectral Steed Ring that summons Torrent.
It's been shown that you can beat Elden Ring without Torrent in certain challenges, but we can't imagine without it as a traveling companion. There is a lot of content, such as certain weapons and talismans, that cannot be accessed without it.
Not to mention how easy the mount makes certain bosses in the game, like Radahn Star Plague or any of the great dragons you find. Managing to spend so much time in the game without it is an achievement in itself.
Of course, there are those who doubt the claim given how prevalent Torrent is and how often it has appeared in official media and in player-created content.
"This guy is lying," one user introduce. โThe game literally puts the ring in your bag. There is no way I will go 360 hours without opening it.โ
This led other players to offer their own Elden RIng weaknesses, including not realizing that it could be wield two-handed weapons either Attack on the left wing of Torrent. Given that, it's not entirely unreasonable to think that a player could miss out on information on how to summon Torrent.
