New game comes out

It's super popular

No money

Attempt to pirate it

Get nothing in search results but shit talking about a horse. No downloads or anything.

Where the hell do I get a torrent for Elden Ring and not just ?

Get the FOMO out of yourself. Let the games pass a 6 months old test to check them up after the marketing and the hype turned down and see if the game is worth your time. You even get to play them after they were tested and the bugs had been solved.

95% of the super popular games end being ok or meh after 6 months.

It was a joke about the horse in Elden Ring being named Torrent so searching "Elden Ring torrent" just results primarily in info about the horse. lol

And also it's Elden Ring. The game is still super fucking good even after 3 years. 🤷‍♂️

Also Elden Ring was pirated pretty much at launch because of how simple and outdated FromSoft's DRM practice are.
