Not done with Elden Ring yet but this very well may be it. Bloodborne is probably still in the conversation just because it plays differently enough (mostly due to trick weapons, rally, quickstep and gun parry) and is much compact with incredible atmosphere and themes for a nice shot-in-the-arm type experience so it may appeal more to some folks in that way.

Elden Ring is truly ridiculous in (amazingly) both scope and craftsmanship though and unless it completely shits the bed in the final stretch I wouldn't hesitate at all to call it an honest to god masterpiece and one of the best games ever made.

Trick weapons in particular is why bloodborne still holds the edge for me. I can see why people who prefer mage builds aren't into it, but the character that each weapon has really butters my biscuit.
