Special thanks to LukeYui
This mod is inspired by his Item and param randomizer, and is modified based on its source code
 
Since I got the Elden Ring’s full item collection, I have fallen into a special kind of loss. I can't play other games, but I don't know what to do when I open Elden Ring.
 
I think the fixed item drop as well as the extremely unbalanced content design of the Elden Ring is the source of its poor replayability: the fixed drop becomes no longer interesting after full exploration, and the large unbalanced number of weapons, skills, spells, spirit ashes and some redundant systems gradually fix the players onto a few choices and behaviors.

The Elden Ring has made 64 spirit ashes, 70 sorceries, 101 Incantations, 114 talismans, 106 consumable items, and 377 weapons, but only a few of them are experienced by players. Even I myself Haven’t used any aromatic before I clear the game.
 
There is a simple philosophy in design:when you have no choice, your only choice is your best choice.
Based on this design philosophy, I made this mod for myself and other players, based on Item and Param Randomizer’s implementation of that weapons will have their infusion, reinforcement level, and equipped ashes of war randomized. Further more, I adjusted and reconstructed a large amount of data, deleted some invalid and redundant systems, re-planned and reconstructed all drop data to give the Elden Ring more novelty and high replayability, and a different experience at every new play.
 
Hope everyone get rid of the loss!
 
 
Modplay advice
- It is recommended not to use this mod until you clear the original game.
- Due to the removal of various unbalanced items, the difficulty of the game will increase accordingly.
- Strongly recommend the wretch as a start for the best experience
- Recommend dashing to challenge bosses instead of exploring and collecting
- Create a new character to experience different contents after clearing the game. No need for NG+ (remember to delete the seed file to get new random data if create a new character or NG+)
- This mod has not modified the original file and has an independent save file, which does not affect the use of the original game and other mods.
 
 
Installation Guide
1.Download files and uncompressfiles into your Elden Ring game folder.

*****you need to have a vanilla regulation file for the game not to throw a "corrupted save" error ****
2.Run ‘ReplayableEdition.exe’(your steam needs to be online)
3.If you want to create a new character you need to delete ‘random_seed.txt’
in the folder ‘ReplayableEdition’. Please note to backup ‘random_seed.txt’ if you want to play several characters at the same time.
4. This will run the game offline, without Easy Anti-Cheat. Please do not attempt to circumvent this to play online, or you will get banned as this mod changes the game's code at runtime.
