One ancient ring The player has performed a ridiculous feat, scaling a huge mountain covered in blood to escape the normal play area. With ancient ringBeing the world as wide as it is, there are many places that players can go by simply walking normally, but there are several places that players can only get to by breaking the system and discovering places they never thought would be reachable. , as players who have been able to get under Leyndell using Malenia's blades. With this player, they managed to scale a mountain that didn't seem scalable in the first place.
Traversal and platforming were never a strong point of previous FromSoftware games, as jumping was only possible if the player was running, meaning it would take a lot of distance to jump even in games like Dark Souls. The first game from the studio that actually had not just jumping, but a focus on platforming, was An axeand this was transferred to ancient ring by giving the player the ability to jump whenever they want, providing an easier way to ancient ring players to jump off the ledges in the game. However, what helped the most in the long run is that ancient ring gives the player a mount that can also jump: Torrent.
It is with torrent that this ancient ring The player manages to make such a strange climb up this mountain. Post in the ancient ring subreddit, user Confident_Knee uploaded a video of his trek up the dangerous mountain in the underground areas of the Lands Between using Torrent. It takes the player a few moments to get the balance right multiple times, finding multiple footholds to jump and land on, even if they only do so by a few pixels. Eventually, they are able to scale the entire mountain, reaching the top where the player celebrates their victorious ascent.
In the comments, many users praised not only the player for his ability to climb the mountain, but also FromSoftware for not putting invisible walls throughout the climb that would discourage players from attempting it like the invisible walls in Call of Duty Warzonerenaissance island. Instead, the developer allows players to go where they want if they can, a bit of freedom they appreciate.
Games that feature open worlds should, in turn, give those players the freedom to go where they want when they want, even if those places must be closed. Eventually, players will be able to find their way there if they are determined enough, either through sheer force of will or through find ways to protect surfing indefinitely in Tears of the Kingdom. This video is proof that ancient ring encourages exploration, even if it doesn't result in a tangible reward.
ancient ring is available for PC, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
