One thing I liked about Sekiro over the other From games is no Stamina, so I'm wondering if that's back in Elden Ring. They didn't show any UI.

some guy who leaked a bunch of gameplay said there is one but it only kicks in in combat and its always full during exploration. grain of salt obvs, but that seems like a good balance

in fact:


>Elden Ring's combat will be faster than Dark Souls 3, but not as fast as Sekiro
>>There's some contention on this one, as Vaati said he really didn't notice anything different and Kitao said the speed is closer to 3.
>Elden Ring will have combat and ambient music like Sekiro
>Elden Ring will have stealth attacks and backstabs
>The Allot Flask system from Dark Souls 3 will be returning
>PS5 version will most likely have Haptic Feedback
>The new Maiden is supposedly not as attached to you as the other Maidens in Souls, and will have her own agenda and goals
>The decision for no Solo invasions is not yet finalized, and FROM will be listening and changing it back if enough people give feedback
>Possibly more giant spells: A new spell that summons a giant storm cloud that rains down projectiles on enemies, and an even bigger version of Soul Greatsword
>Transformations are probably not in the game. When asked if you could transform, Omnipotent, who leaked many details about Elden Ring said "I wish."
>The stats in Elden Ring should be familiar to you if you played Souls, though apparently there are some new unique to Elden Ring
>About 10 classes (same as in Dark Souls 3)
>Pyromancy is confirmed
>A giant lightning spell that causes the earth to tremor
>New mechanic: Stances, closest equivalent would be Posture in Sekiro. Hitting your opponent enough times will open them up to a devastating attack. Most likely not visible to player and the game calculates it under the hood.
>Fall damage is greatly reduced to reward exploration
>Due to the size of the world and the great distance between Graces (bonfires), killing enough enemies in the open world will restore your HP.
>If you're outside of combat, Stamina is turned off you can perform as many actions as you want. However, when combat begins Stamina is turned back on again.
>There supposedly are a few ways to gain EXP without fighting.
>STR now increases your equip load as well
>You can jump while firing a bow or casting magic
>A new type of Arrow: Sleep Arrows. An arrow that puts even the biggest enemies to sleep, allowing you to sneak past them or get a free shot on them
>Online is reduced from 6 to 4. This is due to the lesser consoles not running at an acceptable rate with 6 players, likely because of the bigger world
>Co-Op partners *might* not disappear after killing bosses, or at least after killing mini-bosses
>New online mechanic: Group Passwords. Players can now set-up a password if they only want to find and see other players with the same password. Think of it like a clan
>There will be more weapons in Elden Ring than any other Souls game. Most if not all of the familiar weapon types will be returning
>Twinblades from Dark Souls 2 are back
>Over 100 Weapon Arts and they can be gained by killing bosses or finding them in the open world
>One WA seems to shoot wind
>There seems to be some restrictions on what WA can go on what weapon. For example, Quickstep can't go on a Ultra Greatsword
>Killing certain enemies allows you to gain there essence and they become a Spirit (Buddy in the JP version). This ranges from a tiny bandit to a giant firebreathing dragon. This cannot be used Online.
>You can level up these Spirits and they'll become stronger the more you use them.
>Some of Spirits are intentionally useless and weak as a joke according to Miyazaki.
>Yuka Kitamura returns to compose the game's OST.
>Weather and time of day does affect Stealth. Example: sneaking at night makes you harder to harder to detect.
>There are different enemies depending on what time of day and what the weather is. More difficult enemies appear at night for example.
>Weather and changing time of day seems to happen in real-time
>There will be multiple bosses and mini-bosses, but the player only needs to kill the main 6 to beat game
>Said 6 main bosses have dungeons and level design more akin to classic Souls where the map is turned off and your left to your own wits.
>Crafting is in the game. For example, players can kill animals like Sheep to craft Dried Meat, which boosts Stamina regen.
>As of right now it's unknown how far the crafting system will go besides making simple items.
>Players must obtain a Recipe first before crafting.
>Illusory Walls will return.


apparently ths got posted on reddit. no clue how real it all is but its claiming to be a bunch of interviews jammed together about gameplay stuff. four fuckin months!!!
