What happened when I tried to recreate an Elden Ring save

Playing a video game is a deeply personal experience. Unlike other mediums, you're in control of what happens. I'm not just talking about making choices in an RPG, but the way every single press of a button or tilt of a stick adds up to make your playthrough different from mine. While we always bring something of ourselves to books, movies or albums, the core text never changes. Unless you decide to cut up a novel and then stick the pages together in the wrong order or something.

After a bit of wrangling involving a save-file importer, I jumped into Sellen's world. It made sense to tackle the easy stuff. I took screenshots of the character sheet and visual customisation sliders, and made a list of important or unique items that had been acquired. As the vast majority of these are only found in certain places, knowing what I had to find helped me know where I needed to go.

The experience of playing From Software's Soulsborne titles has been likened to a sort of video game archaeology, with the story contained in brief item descriptions and snippets of conversation. Very little is explicitly stated, it all has to be pieced together. My investigations were very similar, except that instead of trying to understand the game, I was figuring out how it was played. Of course, all this detective work was only half the job.
