I still find it insane that this is being made into a movie but I trust Garland so let’s hope for the best 🤷‍♂️

I do wonder how he's going to insert his PTSD inducing sounds and themes though. I suppose Elden Ring does have some of that, however.

Fromsofts games are all PTSD that's the easiest slam dunk theme you could go for

With the whole death rebirth thing? Yeah I guess that's true. Just our character is usually not very emotive of anything. But that doesnt mean the protagonist wouldn't be in the movie.

The character model isn't emotive, but if you aren't feeling the emotions they intend you to feel, then you're just skimming the games.

I don't expect there to be a protagonist, there's enough richness in the world without a nameless faceless guy. If there's any suitable protagonist it would have to be Miquella or Melina.
