I have an RTX 3060 that I bought about two years ago. Until recently I only had a 1080p 75Hz monitor, so I could play pretty much anything on max settings.
Then I decided to treat myself to a 1440p 180Hz monitor, which has been amazing. Obviously this is a lot more GPU intensive, so I have had to turn down some settings. Then I decided to try out FSR. I'm on Linux and gaming mostly through Proton, so it was as easy as adding a launch command.
Holy crap. Elden ring (admittedly not a very intensive game) went from a choppy 50 fps on high settings and medium ray tracing, to a smooth 60 fps on maxed out settings and high ray tracing with FSR Quality. And I can't even tell the difference from the upscaling! I'm super impressed and can't wait to try out FSR 2 and DLSS now!
Basically a game focusing on levelling up your character to become your preferred version of killing machine, as opposed to maybe more of a diplomat or a rogue in what you would find in a typical Role-Playing Game (RPG)

Many bosses are really hard and have racked up a dozen kills per player.
What boss has the community labeled as a pushover that you've died an embarrassing number of times to?
Crystal Sage from DS3 has killed me at least 8 times every playthrough, but every forum I've visited has made them seem easy.
It introduces multiple new fleshed out factions with really good balancing. Obviously there isn’t going to be a lot of voice acting for characters not in the movies, but that’s a pretty minor setback, all things considered
I browse Reddit occasionally without logging in (I also shredded my account after the API changes) and I see many posts that make me worried about the sort of data LLMs will collect once Reddit management allows that
Dark souls 3
Coming back after finishing Elden Ring, and I must say, the concise, “railroaded” world works much better for the FromSoft formula, IMO
No hate against ER, it’s a great game. But it definitely drags on a bit long
