Elden Ring Xbox Tutorial Part 1 - How to fight

Elden Ring is a super cool game. I haven't played much Dark Souls in the past so this is the first time I'm getting into this style of game and I'm loving it so far. However, those of you who are new to first person RPGs may find it a bit hard to get into, especially if you haven't played much Dark Souls before. So, I decided to make this series of videos, and fully explain how to play the game.

The good thing about my videos is that I show the button presses on my Xbox controller in the bottom right corner of the video, so you will see everything that I press in the game to 100% accuracy. I don't think I have seen another Elden Ring video showing controller presses.

In this video I start by creating the character, then I show you the basic movements, how to interact with your surroundings, then we proceed into a cave where we fight some enemies as part of the tutorial, and in the end we finish off with fighting a mini boss and then head to Limgrave, the first big area.
