It has been a while since a game has entered gaming culture in quite the way that Elden Ring has. We are now approaching two months since it was first released and people still can’t stop talking about FromSoftware’s epic.
The popularity is due in no small part to its dedicated players. People are always coming up with new ways to play. Whether that’s speedrunning it in under seven minutes, or completing it without ever attacking, people have taken the game and made what they want from it. Want to beat a boss with a dance mat? Go ahead my friend. Help impede Godrick with just a hand of bananas? Anything is possible in George R.R. Martin’s world.
If you’re struggling with the difficulty of Elden Ring, take a look at this almost unstoppable mech build we found.
One of the things that has kept players so hooked is the game's multiplayer aspect. Tarnished can invade another’s world hoping to defeat them and reap the rewards, or they can answer a call for help to take down a difficult boss. Whether you wish to help or hinder your fellow man is entirely up to you.

Some people decide to neither help nor hinder, and are more into just having a laugh. Following the Oscar’s slap which echoed around the world, one player began a series of invasions as a slap happy Will Smith. This time it was the invaded, not the invader, who was someone completely unexpected.
As spotted by ScreenRant, a player named ‘Host Of Fingers Jesus’, who has created his character to look like the big man himself, has been welcoming invaders into his world. When Redditor u/G2Cade found our man, Jesus approached him slowly. While G2Cade was ready to fight, Jesus’ pacifism won him over.
As the two met they both performed the Rapture gesture simultaneously. It may not quite be I Am Jesus Christ, the upcoming Jesus Christ simulator, but a tarnished welcoming invaders is a tiny miracle of its very own.
