An Elden Ring dataminer has uncovered an alternate start location and unused voice lines that were present in an early version of the game.
When Elden Ring launched two years ago, players were immediately thrust into a tough boss fight with Grafted Scion near the Chapel of Anticipation, but whether you win or (more likely) lose, your character falls down the cliffside and wakes up in a cave regardless. That doesn't quite make physical sense since you can't, you know, fall into a cave. But it's not just FromSoft's dreamlike logic - there is another explanation.
