It is quite crucial to follow the proper path in Elden Ring, or else you might end up in an area that can be too difficult for your level.
Elden Ring's most praised aspect is actually something that can make the game extremely difficult, especially for newcomers to the genre. The open-ended nature of the game means that all areas are unlocked from the get-go, so you can go wherever you want. The game does give subtle cues about where you need to go, but the absence of waypoints still makes things very ambiguous. If you are stuck in any segment of the game or find it too difficult for your level, the following recommended level outline might help you find your way around.
