Elden Ring: Quick beginner's guide

Choosing a character class doesn't lock you into playing it until the end of the game. Choosing a class helps in the early stages of the game, but it doesn't mean that you are forced to play it all the time. Your choice of class should mainly reflect which stats you consider to be the most important. You should create your character from this angle.
Use jumping and sneaking. Both sneaking and jumping are very useful in combat and while exploring the game world.
Spend your runes on a regular basis. If you decide keep your runes and your character dies, you will lose all the runes you've earned. You have a chance to recover them, but you risk dying again and losing all of your runes for good.
The time of day affects the game world in many ways. For this reason, be careful about the time of day, because during the night, the behavior of opponents will change and new, extremely dangerous enemies will spawn.
Use the markers on the map. This will help you find out where to look for a specific item or opponent
