※ [순정남]is a corner that sets a unique theme every week and introduces games, characters, and events that fit the theme.
Elden Ring, one of the best games of last year. It seems like just yesterday that countless users shed tears and knelt down in front of the splendor of the Tri-Guard in the spiciness of soul games, but this level of difficulty must have been mild to modern gamers who have been trained in numerous soul games. Tired of the mild taste (?) of the Elden Ring, the souls soon abandoned the gamepad, keyboard and mouse and reached the stage of playing the game with bizarre means.
Today, I’ve collected various strange Elden Ring plays that have been accumulated over the past year. It’s just amazing that they clear the game even with this handicap play. To the reporter, a soul-type chick and a flower in the greenhouse, all of them are surprising, but nevertheless, the degree of surprise is slightly different, so I rank them. If you have a better play that wasn’t covered in the article, please introduce it in the comments.
TOP 5. Elden Ring Pete, if you copy it carelessly, you will die of breathlessness
In fifth place is the lightweight ring fit controller. The very controller that makes you lose weight and stamina just by playing around with it. For reference, to play the game with the ring fit controller, you have to continuously jump in place to move, and squat to heel, so each play process is painful. Perhaps, if this reporter tries this, he will either lose 30kg or lose weight at the same time as clearing, or one of the two results will come out. Although it is most likely the latter.
In fact, the Ring Fit controller is a rather common(?) controller that has been tried several times in the Soul series even before the release of Elden Ring, and has been steadily tried at the same time as the release of Elden Ring. Because this challenge became popular and even earned the name ‘Elden Ring Fit’. The example of BerryCrepe is given below, but SuperLouis64, which will be mentioned in third place, has also played games using a ring fit controller. For that reason, the light has faded a little, but anyway, great things are great.
TOP 4. Piano, unexpectedly jazz-style music comes out…
The second is also a light (?) piano. A user with a YouTube nickname of Omunchkin succeeded in clearing the Elden Ring following regarding 340 deaths by linking the keyboard buttons to the piano buttons. Since the controller is a piano, the buttons should be placed only on parallel keys, but the keyboard keys are placed on the left and right hands separately so that you can press multiple keys at once. In fact, it just seems easy to explain, but in the eyes of the general public, manipulating something with it seems to be at a level that makes no sense. By the way, when I operated it, I heard some kind of jazz-like music.
For reference, a user who saw the post made a more terrifying request, saying, ‘Try it with a harmonica next time’, but the gamer responded with a terrifying reply, ‘Maybe it’s on the next list.’ Fortunately, the monster that clears the Elden Ring with a harmonica hasn’t happened yet, just in case. You might be working hard on making a video right now!
TOP 3. Bananas and electric guitars, is it a monster fever?
SuperLouis64, who is making quite a name for himself in this field, is a YouTuber who is famous for playing games by making his own strangely shaped controllers. As for the controllers I’ve tried so far, there are notebooks, boxing gloves, ring fit controllers, electric guitars, 7 swords, Japanese swords, bows, and guitars. Even food like pizza and bananas are connected to electrodes to make controllers, among which bananas and electric guitars are summoned to Elden Ring.
In the case of bananas, electrodes corresponding to controller buttons are connected to each of 11 bananas, and the character is operated by touching the bananas. In the picture below, the bananas arranged in the shape of ‘ㅗ’ on the right are the direction keys, and the bananas on the left are in charge of various buttons such as attack, jump, roll, and items. In fact, bananas are made with a large controller, so it may be less difficult depending on the arrangement of keys, but in the case of electric guitars, buttons are placed on jacks, bridges, knobs, etc., and you have to control the direction by holding the guitar strings, so just imagining it makes me dizzy. Even so, it is surprising to see the ending with only 91 deaths on the electric guitar.
TOP 2. Racing wheels and gears, daily driving became impossible!!!
The handle-shaped wheel pad, which enables precise directional manipulation, is a useful controller for racing games. However, it is also one of the most unsuitable controllers for action games that require quick direction changes and numerous button presses. To be more specific, wheel pads are the worst controllers for any genre other than racing games. Of course, it’s an exception for us Elden Ringo characters, who naturally salivate when they hear the word ‘worst’.
A YouTuber named PlentyAZach played Elden Ring with a racing wheel. Turn the handle left and right to move left and right, use the accelerator and brake to move forward and backward, and press numerous buttons with the buttons on the handle and the gear rod to play. As a result, it was possible to move smoothly in the scene where I was riding a horse, but in other parts, I had to step on the steering wheel and pedal like crazy (I had to endure sensitive operation in the meantime. After getting used to the Elden Ring with that, it was normal driving) I don’t think I can do it, that’s the scariest thing.
TOP 1. Dance pad, why is this number 1? that’s right…
The first place is a dance pad where you can enjoy DDR at home. what? What are you talking regarding when you have pulled out all kinds of weird controllers and the only dance pad that came in first place? I understand. In fact, the dance pad may require physical strength to operate, but it is the weakest among the strange controllers introduced above because it has up, down, left and right arrows, and the controller buttons are drawn along the diagonal. Why are you still in the number 1 spot? Right away, I stepped on the dance pad connected to the PC with my feet, and manipulated the game pad connected to the PS5 with my hands, playing two different Elden rings at the same time.
MissMikkaa, who is active on Twitch and YouTube, took on this challenge that leaves you in awe following hearing it at first glance. Perhaps because of her two brains, one on each of her upper body and one on her lower body, she is able to play two Elden Rings simultaneously following her 199 deaths, defeating Malenia, referred to by some as ‘the hardest game boss ever’, on both. succeeded in defeating This is a state that can’t be expressed with the word multitasking, so I feel fear beyond surprise… Scary…
