What creators think

TBPN recommends Elden Ring, calling it "a really good time" while noting it can get overwhelming in difficulty. Zac Efron and John Coogan both mention playing it — Efron famously ran his PS5 inside a hyperbaric chamber to get through it, and Coogan says he enjoyed it as a Souls game — but neither frames it as a recommendation.

John spent much more time with Elden Ring. He barely tried Minecraft, playing only about five minutes.

Used for: Entertainment during hyperbaric chamber sessions Praised: Fun to play inside the hyperbaric chamber; very challenging game

"Whilst in the hyperbaric chamber, I was able to beat Elden Ring, which is an incredibly difficult game. He got an upright one — an upright hard shell — and I put my PS5 in there. That is really fun."

"If you haven't played Elden Ring, it's a fun time. It's really really hard and sometimes it just gets like a little bit too much, but it's a good time."
