The colossal Elden Ring DLC is finally here, but some players are quite frustrated with it.

I’ve been enjoying it. The difficulty does seem a bit increased with some enemies but I’m also on NG+1.

Playing on PS5 has been fine but there was some noticeable frame dropping during the Divine Beast Dancing Lion fight.

I’m still only partially through it, but that’s my experience so far.

I’ve been doing it on NG5 and been watching a blind playthrough being streamed on NG7.

The complaints of difficulty are pure salt tears.

I admit I do not enjoy some of the boss designs as much, but being forced to change or use specific tactics is nothing new. People mad about their ‘builds’ need to get over themselves.

New content dropped and the old stuff doesn’t work the same. This isn’t the first FromSoft DLC either.

I’m two rememberance bosses in and having a good time. My main criticism is that the bosses are AGGRESSIVE. They seem to be balanced with summons in mind because you almost have to draw the bosses attention away to get in decent damage. Still fun tho.

I’ve noticed some frame rate decrease in the open world and some minor bugs. I’m not sure if that’s my fault tho; I bought a fancy new graphics card and cranked up all the settings, and I’m not sure if my relatively older CPU and RAM are keeping up.

Hasn’t that been an issue with the DLC since like DS2 though?

The DLCs are historically challenging for sure, but the first few bosses make Friede look slow imo.
