The director of the Elden Ring film, Alex Garland, is on his seventh playthrough of FromSoftware’s epic fantasy RPG and has revealed which boss he found toughest to defeat.
In an interview with IGN, Garland named which of Elden Ring’s notorious enemies he deemed most difficult: Malenia.
“Malenia’s the tough one,” Garland explained. “I’m on my seventh playthrough of that game. I’ve leveled up, got lots of energy, an awesome sword and so forth, and I just throw myself at them again, and again, and again, and again.”
“That was the technique I learned from Dark Souls,” he continued. “It’s not that you’re getting better, it’s more like monkeys and typewriters. You just keep doing it and eventually, one day, they die.”
“Radahn’s really straightforward,” stated Garland. “I found Radahn really easy, cause as long as you activate the summon signs for the NPCs who can help in the fight, they keep fighting him, take off whatever, half his health bar, and then you finish him off. It’s all about triggering those little summoning signs scattered around.”
