One Elden Ring player’s parkour attempt ended in disaster, proving that users can unexpectedly die at any time while playing this game. Like other titles made by developer FromSoftware, Elden Ring is a difficult game, and fans will likely die several times over the course of their playthroughs.
Players will encounter several challenging bosses in Elden Ring, but even regular enemies can easily kill users during fights. Elden Ring is filled with traps and ambushes, so gamers need to be even more careful as they explore this world. Furthermore, it’s possible to die after taking fall damage while missing a jump can also prove fatal. An Elden Ring player recently experienced one such unfortunate death as their parkour attempt ended in disaster.
A Reddit user named Drinker_of_Chai has shared a funny clip of them exploring Raya Lucaria Academy in Elden Ring. The player is jumping on the rooftops in this level, and most of these jumps appear fairly safe. It doesn’t look like Drinker_of_Chai is in any danger, but things go horribly wrong as they try to get closer to their objective. As seen in the video, the player jumps over a gap, only for an enemy to hit them in mid-air, resulting in Drinker_of_Chai falling to their death.
The user states that Elden Ring fans should look around the area when trying to jump over a gap, as they too can fall victim to similar events. It’s likely for gamers to get unlucky in Elden Ring, as a few users in the comments section share stories of how they died unexpectedly while playing the game. One player thinks that the development team placed the enemy in that specific location for this purpose, which is followed by a discussion on the various traps scattered around Elden Ring’s world.
One player mentions that they would have screamed in rage had this happened to them, while another fan calls gravity the final boss of the game. Thankfully, Drinker_of_Chai states in one of the comments that they never raged after experiencing this incident in Elden Ring. Overall, while many users claim to have gotten a good laugh out of this event, a few gamers take the opportunity to question FromSoftware’s design choices.
Elden Ring is constantly challenging users to make note of their surroundings, as they can easily die in one of many ways. However, as seen in the video, fans can get ridiculously unlucky while playing the game, resulting in their unexpected death.
Elden Ring is available for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
