My favorite moment in Elden Ring is when you reach the door of the Three Fingers
The door to the Frenzy Flame may be one of the best story choices in any Fromsoft game imo.
We finally make it to the deepest, darkest part of the Lands Between, where perfection hides its impurities and sin where we find the ultimate evil: The Three Fingers. There's an eeriness to being down here and the game is straight up telling you that what you're about to do is wrong. The moment you open the door, you are unleashing something that will devour every realm until there is nothing left. Justice will be served to the Great Caravan and Melina will be spared from becoming the kindling, but is it truly worth the price?
Melina, our companion and guide, can't do anything to stop us except beg and hope that we make the right decision and turn back. The game has thrown everything it could at you to stop you from reaching this place and now it's your choice whether or not to claim your "prize".
