Recently, my girlfriend got interested in Elden Ring, and I'm trying to give her some advice. She doesn't have much experience in gaming, mostly chill games like Stardew Valley and such.

I'm afraid I'll scare her off if I monologue about i-frames, poise damage and parry windows, so: People whose first FromSoft experience was Elden Ring, what advice did you find actually usable for getting into the game?

Fromsoft: get naked and roll.

But seriously, biggest thing about Elden Ring is that you don't need to follow any trail it gives you and you don't need to fight each thing that comes along. Explore or watch some guide videos on how and where to get started easier.
