Trailer was very pog, gotta say the indie showcase after has been great too some real quality in here
At first i tought there is a word "elder" instead of "elden" in a title and had high hopes that previous map system will return.
My disappointment is immeasurable, and my day is ruined ;/
Looks good overall.
Both the scenery and the boss/monster variations.

But im not sure about is using mounts and doing 300 feet jumps from platforms.

Guess they made the world bigger taking this into consideration ,due to high constant movement speed, but still it feels weird almost like a slight arcadey race sim in that aspect.

Also by the looks it has potential to cheese/skip enemies more easily (in comparison to older Souls titles) since players can simply outrun them.

Masterpiece of 3.16 lore
"A mysterious figure appears out of nowhere, trying to escape from something you can't see. She hands you a rusty-looking device called the Blood Crucible and urges you to implant it into your body."

Only usable with Ethanol Flasks

They showed that you could summon blue phantoms, but they didn't show any red ones or invaders. If the game doesn't have an invasion mechanic, it'll be nothing but total cuck bait.

You could do that in every souls game, and bloodborne too.

There was a glitch that let you clip though and get to an area you shouldn't be able to get to, and skip like 1/2 the game.

Now that you mention it. That makes it more worrisome.
Considering how big the new gameworld will be thanks to constant mount speed,there will be landscape clipping again in certain areas for shortcuts. You cant avoid them when doing such a giant world.

On top of that the more or less constant increased movementspeed that you can use right away without much investigation how to cheese through.

Guess the game will be at least good for one playthrough.

The clipping skips in DkS were intentional though. They easily could have just made it so you'd die if you fell out of the map, and not added a floor outside to walk to all the keypoints in the game.
Honestly I hope they thoroughly test any glitch vulnerabilities before it is released. Having that in any game kinda destroys its image to some extent when all you see on Youtube are the newest world speed racer record holders skipping through large swaths of the games' content to claim some sort of victory that really shouldn't be victorious at all, but embarassing tbh.
