To describe Hand Ring In short, it’s not easy. We could have chosen terms like grand, epic, varied, and dramatic, but we felt like we were leaving something behind. That’s not a surprise, as we still find ourselves talking about works like Dark Souls (2011) and Bloodborne (2015), a sign that Miyazaki’s games are too layered to be picked up and described in a matter of minutes, but they need years. and years of education.

What we can do more easily is to say what Elden Ring is not: This is not a comedy, not a work that aims to make us laugh and laugh; Maybe except when we beat the scary boss on duty, but that’s a different smile. Well, no one has to like it because what we’re going to talk about in this article is something ready made. Funny version of Elden Ring who does his best to make you laugh.

Elden Ring, in case you missed it, actually made it into a funny manga – Elden Ring: The Path to the Mother Tree – and we read the first two chapters so we can talk to you about them. It will be published in Italy by Panini Comics. Who is this product for? Is it really funny? Should it be read or not? Read on to find out what our thoughts are.

Which History Is he telling Elden Ring the Way to the Mother Tree? Ours is, in a sense, that of the Lightless destined to be the Ancestral Lord. More importantly, the main character is the character to play a newcomer who has no idea how Miyazaki’s games work.

this character First of all, the Unfortunate is one of the beginner classes that starts with no armor and sticks. He’s normally the experts or the undecided class, but in the manga it just shows that the protagonist is an outcast, an unfortunate soul who has nothing to do with it. First of all, he has no idea what’s going on.

as in funny iskai Anyway, our Unfortunate seems to have been suddenly transported to the Interregnum and has no idea how things work here. The idea of ​​Elden Ring The Way to the Mother Tree is to strike us with the seriousness of the original work and then break the rhythm with the interventions of the hero, who are not always completely out of place.

For example, just look at the meeting Varre White Mask: The man appears in his own dialogue, known to the players, but the Unfortunate does not accept being told that he is not a virgin and is doomed to death, tries and begins to cry and attacks him. But in the next episode, Varré reappears and we see him gardening with a wooden cart.

With the meeting the thing is repeated meline or Godrick’s appearance. The two come out in their own seriousness and then it all ends hilariously with the jokes and destruction of the fourth wall. The interesting part, however, has to do with the fact that the comedy of Elden Ring The Way to the Mother Tree is not entirely random, but at least partially based on lore.

Godrickfor example, he’s looking for new Grafts just like in the game, but instead of picking up Senzaluce’s crippled and rotting limbs, he asks his court to propose artistic fusions of arms and legs in search of something cute and trendy. to impress the capital. However, this means that Elden Ring The Way to the Mother Tree is first and foremost a manga designed for those who perhaps know Elden Ring in detail.

References to the game world, lore and typical problems encountered during game phases (like being killed by the Tree’s Watch as soon as you enter the open map) will be understandable only to those who know Elden Ring.

With just two episodes we won’t know how in-depth future references will be, but for now we’ve seen plenty of details that will be appreciated by fans, and maybe just them. We are also confident that this version of Elden Ring will be a game for a certain slice of players. nonsense product It has nothing to do with the video game. Unfortunately, it all comes down to personal taste and how much of that is enough to “don’t take it too personal”.

The few pages available were not lacking in ideas, and if Elden Ring La Via per l’Albero Madre can continue on that path, it will be a study. fun and interesting. For those unfamiliar with the game, it doesn’t seem like an appropriate run-in, but with around 17 million players, we believe the potential audience is really high.

We also remind you that Elden Ring The Way to the Mother Tree will be distributed. in free format in Italy (but temporarily) from Panini Comics digitally from September 12, 2022. If you liked Miyazaki’s game and are used to reading manga, there’s no reason not to give this weird but delightful alternative version of the work a shot. Understanding that you have to accept the idea of ​​seeing Elden Ring’s epicness as ridiculous.
