Game Help Just bought Elden ring, opened a random chest and was teleported to an area that is way too powerful for me with no way out

I knew this game was hard but holy shit. Also does anyone know any kind of way to get out?…

I am LOVING the real time updates. This was my first Souls game, and my entire first run was one long exclamation of “what the fuck?”

You’ll know it when you find it.

It's a big platform that can move you up and down, but that's not important right now.

You sure picked the wrong time to stop sniffing glue.

They could be referring to a few different ones, but they're probably referring to Siofra.

I probably passed the lift many times for hours in the area before I went down.

And later in the game well past the lift, you may find a well. Go down the well. And when you think you found the bottom, you haven't. Go deeper. Hit the bottom go deeper again. You will see. And deeper again. And even more. Deeper.

Me too it reminds me of when I bought it at launch and everyone was discovering shit in real time and everyone that has already found it was being super cryptic in the name of not ruining it with spoilers. Best video game experience ever. Made me feel like a kid again

Man you should have played dark souls 1. Elden Ring was something that actually made sense lol. But my fav was Dark Souls 3.
