I'm a Fromsoft megafan and I gotta say... I'm kinda lukewarm on this DLC.

Hey everyone.

I just wanted to voice some thoughts on the DLC and see if there are others who feel like I do.

I'll skip the praises because lets face it... it's a Fromsoft game so it's pretty fucking excellent. That said, I feel this DLC was not their strongest. I'd honestly say it doenst live up to the base game. Lore and new equipment aside there really isnt much... new here. Recycling old bosses (that were already overdone) with sorta new gimmicks is whack. New enemy types feel kinda boring for the most part and the 2 main dungeons, while interesting, don't really reach the levels of Leyndell, Stormveil or even the Haligtree.

My two favorite parts were the Stone Coffin Fissure and the entirety of the Frenzy Flame woods. The atmosphere in these places is very unique and the lore is top notch. But then the dungeons themselves are over in like... 15 minutes and the less said about the Putrescent knight the better. (Though the Frenzy Flame boss is my fav from the DLC)

After beating the DLC I go online to see what I miss and honestly... it wasn't much. A couple of weapons and a small cave or two. No missed bosses, no missed areas... nothing that made me go "Holy shit... I missed that?!"

My final big complaint it Radahn. Like... why? If you're gonna ressurect somebody why not Godwyn? It just boggles the mind. If this is the send off boss for Elden Ring... meh. Afer the intial shock factor its just Radahn again. With lasers.

TLDR: Amazing experience but not enough new ideas. Feels more like an Ashes of Ariandel then a Ringed City if you catch my drift.

Anybody else feel this way?
