Elden Ring

Yeah I've played a NG+ since I beat it. Absolutely unbelievable game. I'm usually more of a COD or Assassins Creed etc type gamer but this game was incredible. Only Souls game I've played actually so I'm probably missing out on other masterpieces.

 

Has anyone downloaded the DLC?

It is absolutely ruthless!

 

I have but I have to start a new game. At the end of my initial run I went into NG+. Annoyed at myself, never thought of the DLC at the time.

 

As far as I know there are only two bosses that you need to beat to access the dlc. One being Mohg.

 

My pal in work told me, I am playing through with a guide to speed it up. My initial playthrough was 200hrs I am murder for taking ages in games. By the end I was desperate to get it done. Was dreading starting again but loving it and that way I cannae wait to get back on when life gets in the way.

 

It’s * hard.

 

Yea it isn’t easy at all. Only a few hrs in. Managed to get my scadutree level up to 4 but still getting my * handed to me by the dancing lion. Think i need to leave him for a bit, explore and get some new weapons & armour more suitable for this location.

 

Finished the DLC if you can even call it that considering its basically the size of a full dark souls game.

Enjoyed it probably even more than the main game. I went into it on NG+ although I did a run through of the main games questline again so I wouldn't be under levelled for the dlc only to find out the dlc scales to your level and you get stronger by collecting the scudatree fragments which I like to be fair because it pushes you to explore the world to find them.


It was tough at the beginning but once I found more fragments it became more manageable, really enjoyed experimenting with the new weapons and builds the dlc gives you and I would urge others to experiment aswell, I usually stuck to the same weapon/build in the main game and trying out different things in the dlc made me realise how much I was missing out on.
Didn't find any of the bosses that crazy difficult and whenever I did struggle I used the mimic and it was easy street after that although I will say the last boss was absurd to the point it felt unfair at times, forced me to change my build to try and brute force my way past it which eventually worked.

Definitely one of if not the best DLCs ever realeased.
