Elden Ringplayers have been starved for news regarding the project, waiting patiently for a trailer, update, or release date announcement for well over a year. To kill the time,Elden Ringfans have flooded the subreddit with memes, though now they have started to focus their attention on posting tier lists.
While some started with serious lists, placinggames likeBloodborneandSekiro: Shadows Die Twiceabove or below theSoulstitles, the process quickly devolved into a joke. A fitting turn of events given the past activity ofElden Ring-loving Redditors, plenty of unique lists have been shared. Redditor BigHat-Logan, for example, ranks From Software’s games based on how quickly players can dress up like the character on the cover — with hilarious categories like “Literally Immediately” replacing the standard S-F options.

Another list, this time from Reddit user ErrantOverflow, is very clearly a troll. Placing every From Software game in F tier, the list would be funny enough on its own. However, seeing thepopular indie gameBugsnaxin the S tier adds to the image’s humor, with the extra touch of putting a “Literally Doesn’t Exist” tier at the bottom of the image. Unsurprisingly,Elden Ringis slotted into this category, with the Redditor poking fun at how little has been shown about the project thus far.
Next up, Reddit user Faboian jokes about the lack of information regarding anElden Ringrelease date. While rumors have appeared saying that news will come soon, and players have theorized that the game will drop in the first half of 2021, Faboian is a bit more doubtful. Showing every other game and the year they released, the fan works his way up to 2019 andSekiro: Shadows Die Twice. However, this is where the years stop, asElden Ringsimply has an infinity symbol next in place of a year of release.
One more greatElden Ringtier list comes from feels_bad_man_1, with the Reddit user likely having the most honest take that was shared to the subreddit. Saying that they “like all of them,” the fan ofFrom Software’s past workputs all the games into the same tier — apart from one.Bloodbornegets a separate tier of its own, simply because they have “no PS4,” adding that they “would probably like” the gothic RPG if they had the chance to play it.
There are morefunElden Ringjokeson the subreddit, with one list ranking the games based on the number ofBerserkreferences they have and another tier list saying that tier lists are overused. While the new meme has not broughtElden Ringany closer to a gameplay showcase or release date, at least the subreddit has provided fans with even more laughs.
