While I’m not a ‘Souls” style game fan (they’re just not my thing and I’ve tried), I have been eager to give Elden Ring a go. Given that my current pc is now 8 years old, that impulse will have to idle until this laptop is functionally a paperweight. 

With that said, I came across this zoomed out and tilt-shifted version Elden Ring that’s reminiscent of isometric games like Baldur’s Gate, Planescape:Torment and Diablo (or more recent gaming fair like Disco Elysium). The low framerates involved give in game movement the impression of stop motion animation (think Ray Harryhausen or the Quay Brothers). The overall aesthetic affect is pleasing while highlighting the art and design elements. I dig what this person is doing here. 

The channel has other examples to behold: Tiny God of War,Tiny Red Dead Redemption 2,Tiny Breath of the Wild, etc.
