After the 10 hour mark, you start to wonder if you really ought to be playing this game. Its cold, unfeeling, unwavering hold on your attention tightens. At the 50 hour mark, you start to explore the reasons why it's so fun. You give up though, as you've just gotten another dopamine hit from those fat rune stacks piling up in your wallet. At the 100 hour mark, you feel truly addicted. The game will not let you go, nor you it. At 200, your life begins to revolve around when you'll get your next hit of that sweet, sweet nectar pouring from your neurotransmitters. At 250, which I am around at the time of this review, you've played through the game twice or more, possibly with the same character, and you feel satisfied. It calls to you on occasion, but you feel as though you can finally rest. For those of you who've more than 250hrs and are still playing, Elden Ring will keep you happy for life. Enjoy it.
