Elden Ring players will likely already be acquainted with the game's silly player-created messages. A new meme pokes fun at some of the most popular.
A new Elden Ring meme is hot off the presses, this time commenting on FromSoftware's signature online messaging system. Elden Ring has plenty in common with games like Dark Souls and Bloodborne, not the least of which is its instantly recognizable multiplayer integration.
While most would likely consider Elden Ring to be a single-player experience first and foremost, the game does feature a somewhat robust multiplayer function. Players can invade the worlds of other players as antagonistic forces or lend their aid as friendly benefactors. Aside from this direct contact, however, is a messaging system. While traversing the open world, players can choose to leave messages for others to discover in various areas. These messages can serve as useful tips for other players at large, pointing them in the right direction or warning them of oncoming danger. Alternatively, they can act as lighthearted pranks or jokes. The process of leaving messages is more straightforward than Elden Ring's PvP process, but it does come with a catch of its own: players cannot simply write whatever they want via keyboard - they have to choose from a predetermined list of words and phrases. This can often lead to the messages being confusing, strange, or humorous.A meme shared by Reddit user SilentScarlet highlights this absurdity. The image, which depicts an avian stand-up comic, touches on some of the most common jokes that Elden Ring players have been leaving behind - starting with"try fingers, but hole" before moving onto"Fort, Knight" and"Could this be an item?". The meme even references the "Try jumping" message, which players will typically leave by cliffsides or bottomless pits in attempts to bait players into leaping to their deaths. When Elden Ring's servers are working, these types of messages are abundant. Long-time FromSoftware players will likely be more than familiar with the"Try jumping" note in particular. That message, along with variations of"hidden path ahead" have been staples of these games for years, popping up like the footprints left behind by nefarious trolls and pranksters. While this meme leans into the fact that these types of messages are oversaturated, their popularity does seem to connect the player base in an interesting way. Most Elden Ring fans have surely come across each of these jokes at least once while playing, and they have already become a kind of staple within the game. Elden Ring is still quite young, so the jokes left behind in these messages could conceivably evolve over time.
