Elden Ring's map runes have been decip♏hered by a group of fans in China, using an ancient language.
A video recently emerged from Chinese YouTube channel YYSTV, detailing how a group of 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Elden Ring fans managed to analyze and decod🦩e runes on the game's map.
In short, a group of Chinese fans realiz🐼ed that the runes on Elden Ring's map are that of the Yi script, an ancient language used by the ethnic Yi people. Deciphering these runes was no short work, largely because only a very small percentage of the Chinese population still actively uses the dialogue.
After the group reached out to a fellow Chinese fan of Elden Ring - and noted that if they couldn't properlﷺy speak Yi, the game's Japanese developers probably couldn't either - the wheels eventually got turning. The group managed to decipher that the in-game runes are being written by the map's original in-game owner. Markers are dotted all over the map, as you can probably imagine, denoting the intimidating Stormveil Castle, which we visited back in Elden Ring's closed network test, for example.
There's also a big focus on the sea with these runes. In the north sea, for example, the runes warn the player character not to listen to the song of the sirens, else they get lured to their untimely demise under the waves. You might recall that the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:previously-revealed Godfrey has a sword bearing runes related to the sea. Could the ocean be a bigger factor in Elden Ring than w🐠e previously thought?
There's just under a month until Elden Ring launches on February 25, 2022, and we'll find out if the runes really do prelude a big focus on the sea. Elden Ring is shaping up to be one hell of an exciting prospect for both new and veteran 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:FromSoftware game players alike, and you can head over to our 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Elden Ring preview to find out exactly why.
