The creator of A Song of Ice and Fire has created the Elden Ring lore.
After years of waiting and with high expectations, it must be said that last Friday, February 25, it finally happened. And it is that, after a few months in which news has not stopped arriving, Elden Ring was releasedbeing a title that has not only met expectations, but has also become one of the top rated games of video game history.
Under this premise, it must be said that the From Software title has been quite special in this case, since the title has had the collaboration and work of George R.R. Martinauthor of A Song of Ice and Fire, this being a series of novels that will be better known by the name with which they came to television from the hand of HBO: Game of Thrones.
George RR Martin had to create the lore, but without this implying changes in the development of Elden Ring
In this way, it is known that the writer has been in charge of creating the lore of the title, being in fact already well known his contribution to Elden Ring. However, it should be noted that until today hardly anything was known about the freedom that From Software had allowed him in the project, this being a fact that has finally found an answer.
Recently in an interview with the New Yorker media, Hidetaka Miyazakiwho is the creator of the Souls-like titles, as well as director and producer of Elden Ring and most From Software games, has highlighted that certain restrictions were placed on Martinhighlighting that his role should be the creation of the lore, but without this colliding with the development of the game.
The latter is due to the way they have in From Software to create their stories and arguments, since, far from being something linear as it happens with other sagas, the story of the Elden Ring is told by exploring the world, this being something that has influenced other great sagas and titles. To give an example of this, Hollow Knight drinks from this same way of telling the narrative.
Be that as it may, we will have to see what we will find in the From Software title in terms of the construction of its world, since, for now, Elden Ring is characterized by having optional bosses even more difficult than the main ones, which without It will undoubtedly be a challenge for those who want to win 100% of the title.
