Title: Elden Ring's New Inventory Features in Shadow of the Erdtree are a Game Changer

Subtitle: FromSoftware's latest update brings much-needed improvements to inventory management in Elden Ring with recent items tab and exclamation marks above new items.

Introduction: Elden Ring, the critically acclaimed open-world RPG from FromSoftware, has been praised for its intricate world design and challenging combat. However, one area where the game fell short was inventory management. Players often found themselves losing track of newly acquired items amidst a sea of loot.

New Features: Recognizing this issue, FromSoftware released an update for Elden Ring with two new inventory features: a recent items tab and exclamation marks above new items. These features have significantly improved the inventory management experience in Elden Ring, making it easier for players to keep track of their newly acquired items.

Recent Items Tab: The recent items tab allows players to easily access recently acquired items, including useful notes, maps, and directions. This feature is especially helpful when exploring new areas or completing quests. Players can now quickly find important items without having to dig through their entire inventory.

Exclamation Marks Above New Items: Exclamation marks above new items indicate that they are newly acquired or important. This feature helps players identify new items and prioritize them accordingly, making it easier to manage their inventory and focus on the most valuable loot.

Background Information: Elden Ring was released in February 2022 to widespread critical acclaim. The game's intricate world design, challenging combat, and rich lore have made it a favorite among RPG fans. However, some players found the inventory management system to be lacking.

Conclusion: FromSoftware's latest update for Elden Ring addresses this issue by introducing the recent items tab and exclamation marks above new items. These features make it easier for players to manage their inventory and keep track of newly acquired items, enhancing the overall gameplay experience in Elden Ring.

    • . Where to go next is a constant question in Elden Ring, and that goes double for its Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, which doesn’t quite tell you what to do first.

    The article provides clear instructions on how to progress in the Elden Ring DLC and offers some optional bosses for players to fight before moving on. However, it does use some emotional manipulation by implying that taking on certain bosses will help players 'get back in fighting shape' or 'be very cautious'. It also uses sensational language when describing the difficulty of the Furnace Golem and Ghostflame Dragon, stating that they will 'kill you very quickly' and have 'ghostly breath that can take you out almost instantly'. Additionally, there is selective reporting as some areas of Gravesite Plain are highlighted for their hidden items while others are not mentioned.
    • You’ll get a new Crystal Tear for your Wondrous Physicks for taking it down.
    • This boss will test your timing and your patience, as it has a lot of health and will kill you very quickly if you’re not careful.
    • If you’re having trouble finding it, you can see the little gray pillar on your map even before you have the map fragment.
    • Logur is an obvious reference to X-Men’s Wolverine.
