10 character limit

[P.]

Why? Do devs think consoles still use memory cards?

10 character is more than enough.. I'm on number 6 and the game has gotten extremely boring.

Speak for yourself, 10 isn't nearly enough, I've got that gripe, too. I wish they'd add more for PC players, and yeah, I think it's because console.

What a bad take, plenty of people like to keep their characters. This isn't an online only game from the 90's, this system of 10 character slots is outdated and should not be encouraged.

This must be the only game in your library.

all you need to do is respec the ones you have. its pointless to have more.this is not that kinda of game that you would ever need more. If for some reason you do want more move the files yourself and bam 10 more slots.

appdata-roaming-eldenring-"steamID"-er0000.s12 is your save file.

I have multiple save files in labeled folders and notepad documents to get around this, so that I have different profiles with listed characters in each, especially for Dark Souls 2 and Elden Ring. 10 character limit is rough, I completely agree. But there's definitely ways around it if you're willing to put the bit of extra work into it.

What about I don't want to respec my characters, they all have a theme, and I also don't want to fiddle around with save files. I want more character slots, and this most definitely is the type of game that one would need more than 10 slots. I have the same gripe with Dark Souls 3. You may think it's pointless, others don't.

Now that you mention it, it's interesting that all souls games with the exception of Ds2 try to create the impression of being as little of a videogame as possible, but then still are limited to ten characters per steam profile.

It doesn't really make a lot of sense.

I'm more annoyed that character nicknames don't allow more than 17 characters in their names. Combine that with crazy cencoring that you can't even name yourself "knight" turning into a "k***ht" and vuala... I have to run all my character names through Dark Souls 3 name checker and its so annoying whem i'm literal 1 character too long.

Why would you care what someone wants to play. If someone gets bored with this game in 20 hours, that is their right. If someone wants to play this game for 10.000 hours, that too is their right, and it should also be their right to keep their characters in a single player game. I have games with dozens of hours and 100%'ed them, just like i have games with thousands of hours, it's none of your business what people play and how many games they have.

People generally don't want to respec characters for no reason, also removes the idea of going for a certain build for that character. It also should not be the players responsibility to mess around with save files to make room for more characters.

I say Diablo 2 Resurrected is a perfect example. Regular Diablo 2 closed battlenet had 20 character slots, meanwhile Resurrected has 10 again, they actually regressed. You pay money to have less slots in online play while also having no private connection anymore. Diablo 4 as well, 10 character slots, you give them big money and they can't even give you a proper amount of character slots. I have random games on Steam with like 1 gig worth of storage for save files even though there is no way to fill that up, yet Blizzard can't give me 50mb.

your just being lazy then. its not hard to change armor and weapons. 1-10 slots should be for lvl cap not gear.
