  • They did get a consolation prize in the form of an epic screenshot depicting their boss attempt.
  • The image impressed many an Elden Ring player, while prompting others to lament the game’s lack of a proper photo mode that would make capturing epic moments easier.

As a long-time Elden Ring player with countless hours invested into this masterpiece of a game, I cannot help but be both amused and dismayed by the recent encounter shared by Redditor JKapp5 on social media. The image of their Tarnished character dying to Rykard at the very last moment is not only a testament to the sheer challenge that Elden Ring presents, but also serves as a reminder of the game’s stunning visual design.


A player of Elden Ring met an unfortunate end at the hands of Rykard just as they were about to defeat the boss, but they salvaged the situation by taking an impressive screenshot of their defeat. This image circulated on social media, causing some Elden Ring enthusiasts to express disappointment over FromSoftware’s lack of a photo mode in their 2022 game sensation.

The battle against Lord of Blasphemy is a striking boss fight from Elden Ring’s latter stages, largely due to Rykard’s impressive design and voice acting. Despite the RPG’s other challenging moments, Rykard keeps players on their toes in Elden Ring.

Reddit user JKapp5 can confirm their close call with Rykard, barely missing defeat as the boss was on the brink of defeat. Facing imminent doom from the colossal serpent boss, the player captured their valiant effort in a screenshot before meeting their end. The resulting image beautifully encapsulates the moment right before being devoured by this optional Elden Ring foe.

A stunning screenshot taken from Elden Ring promptly gained popularity on the game’s most visited subreddit, garnering admiration from numerous players. Some fans appreciated the picture’s arrangement, while others utilized the opportunity to express their disappointment over the absence of a built-in photo mode. Considering Elden Ring’s abundance of breathtaking landscapes and intimidating boss battlegrounds, it seems that several players are still frustrated by the challenge of capturing these images, which would have been made easier with FromSoftware’s inclusion of a photo mode in their 2022 release.

The Japanese game developer has not announced plans to include a photo mode in their upcoming games, but fans have been increasingly urging them to do so, particularly after the massive success of “Elden Ring” and the Soulsborne series. A dedicated fan even created a photo mode modification for “Elden Ring,” which was made available shortly after its early 2022 release.

To decrease the risk of being devoured by Rykard during the battle, players are recommended to employ a powerful spear that deals extra damage to the boss. This weapon can be found at the onset of Rykard’s arena, enabling players to acquire and enhance it prior to engaging in the boss fight.
