Elden Ring, FromSoftware’s latest, is arguably one of the strongest contenders for Game of the Year 2022, taking the gaming scene by storm when it was released last February. Recording 13.4 million copies sold as of last month, the game has swallowed up countless hours from players, making them helpless tarnished eager to become the next Elden Lord.

The latest tarnished? Former Senator Bam Aquino.

Aquino posted an update on his Twitter account, asking if any of his followers are familiar with the game and what build suggestions they can give. Holding up a PS5 copy of Elden Ring, he continues to say “Mukhang see you guys after 140 hours na,” or, roughly translated, “See you after 140 hours.”

A number of followers flooded the comments section, suggesting various builds and playstyles for the game, which is known for its wildly diverse combinations. From the popular bleed build to the powerful magic-based builds, it seems that Aquino will have a tough time thinking of which ones to use.

Others are already posting good luck messages and suggesting naked wretch builds for the ultimate experience. Aquino will definitely need the good luck messages unless he’s really a pro at this thing, which we would not rule out the possibility of because of his affinity for all things gaming.
