Months later, Elden Ring remains one of the biggest games of the year. There’s almost no contest for the game of the year, in many eyes, as far as award shows like The Game Awards go. Certainly, there are folks who will consider games like Neon White or Kirby and the Forgotten Land as their personal GOTY, but overall, Elden Ring is dominating by a lot.
Truly, God of War Ragnarok may be the only game to really rival Elden Ring, given the delays of games like Starfield. It should be noted that, while both are popular games, one has been released and the other hasn’t. Anything goes in the gaming industry, and stylistically speaking, they are very different games. In Elden Ring, players will worry about endings, lore like the Frenzied Flame and Three Fingers, builds, and far more, more often.
Its popularity can easily be seen everywhere. In fact, one Tiktok account known as Artyscrafts (a, as self-proclaimed, mom by day, dice maker by night) has made an Elden Ring set of Dungeons and Dragons tabletop dice inspired by the Frenzied flame. As they describe the dice, they are inspired by Artyscraft’s current build in Elden Ring and can be found on their Twitter, up for auction.
The dice are largely orange, with a few areas of black, shades of reds, and cracks. It fits perfectly well with the general design of the Three Fingers, as well as the color scheme associated with the Lord of Frenzied Flame ending. For anyone in love with Elden Ring and/or those who enjoy this tidbit of lore, these dice make a good addition to the collection.
What’s more interesting is how expansive the lore around the Three Fingers truly was, when counting in quest lines that were cut from the base game. For example, players will meet the Elden Ring merchant Kale early in the game, and as it turns out, they were supposed to appear in a number of places, guiding players alongside a new quest.
In it, players would have learned that the merchants worshipped the Three Fingers/Frenzied flame, and their Grand Caravan was destroyed when the Golden Order sealed the Three Fingers away. It explains why Merchants often used Madness attacks in Elden Ring too. Either way, there’s still a lot to this entire faction in Elden Ring, and these dice celebrate it in the best of ways.
Elden Ring is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
