Good, Old Hunter and both DLCs for DS3 were great
Way of Tomoe DLC for Sekiro when??
>Way of Tomoe DLC for Sekiro when??
Sequel when.
ashes or Ariandel dlc was literally the worst dlc they ever made by far
Nah it was overpriced as hell with a lack of content, but what was there was still better than DS2's crap DLC.
It's kind of hard to top Ivory King DLC in that regard. The only good thing about that one was the final boss
>Tomoe DLC
Never ever
DS2 DLCs were also the best part of the game by far
Fromdrones intentionally ignore the best DLCs ever made by Fromsoft because they only answer to their prophet that is Miyacucki PBUH
ds2's base gameplay was terrible so no amount of things they actually did right (of which there was a lot) didnt actually matter because there was no saving that slow no stamina N64 jankfest
>whataboutism
>bullshit strawman
Yep i accept your concession
>that slow no stamina
Filtered ESL plebeian.
you literally have to get to level 50 before you have enough stamina to do 2 greatsword attacks and a roll before getting locked out of any action for the next 10 seconds
lmao Imagine being this filtered.
imagine pretending to like a terrible game because of the cult you joined
>pretending
>wojack
Concession accepted.
the discord never played DS2, they just worship it because its contrarian and causes shitflingings
>troony scared of sexy girls calling anyone a discord groomer
funny, another sexy Melina jumpscare
>the discord never played DS2, they just worship it because its contrarian and causes shitflingings
>discord that discord this
Shut the frick up, moronic zoomer homosexual. Know your place.
here, sexy girl
now scram
Real Soulschad showing Fromdrones their place. Unfathomably based.
I mean I'd hope so
Never pay more than 10 dollars for a DLC
I remember when they sold Dark Souls 3 Deluxe edition for 12 Euros on STEAM
Now they never discount Scholar of the First Sin for more than 15€. It used to be 5€. How fricked up is that
Is the DLC changing/adding things to the base game somehow?
It's a expansion, not a DLC
>Is the DLC
>not a DLC
Nice one, idiot.
It's downloadable content, but it's also a whole new game
>it's not
>it's also
So is it not or is it also, moron?
If you want to keep pretending to be a moron/don't have the IQ necessary to understand such a simple statement, be my guest
>it's also a whole new game
No it's not
>new area bigger than Limgrave
>new enemies
>new bosses
>new weapons
>new movesets
>new characters
sure
sounds like every single dlc for every game ever
oh you're just another discord troll, very well
Would you call a WoW expansion "a whole new game"?
No you wouldn't because that's fricking moronic but for some reason you're doing this for this game
Go buy some horse armor and gloat how its better price to content wise
>new area
>new enemies
>new bosses
>new weapons
>new movesets
>new characters
HOLY SHIT IT'S A WHOLE NEW GAME!
yeah its a expansion, not a DLC
>moving the goalpost
You said
>it's also a whole new game
yeah, its a new game
No it's not. It's just extra content for the game. Same as any other DLC.
Adding extra content to a game doesn't make it a new game.
its a new game
>Same as any other DLC
lmao look at god of war slopgnorok
>oh and also nothing will ever compete with The Old Hunters in terms of expansions from has created
They already said its bigger than Old Hunters aka more bosses and story
>but it's bigger
that guy entire point is how just saying "it's bigger" means nothing
>its a new game
D2 expansion wasn't a new game
D3 expansion also wasn't a new game
Adding stuff to a base game doesn't make it a new game.
Black person i still play this game a quarter century later, I'd buy it again if i had to.
>marxist doublespeak
why are Elden Ring trannies like this?
>conflating western capitalist trannies and communism
Why do you glowies keep doing this? The Soviet Union did not push your degeneracy, stop the psyop.
Melsex
too late.
>pre-ordering digital content
Unless you live in a failing country where your currency might just lose all value at any second for what reason would you do that?
To support the devs and own the troons
>Fromsoft
>Type A/B
>Owning the troons
Huh? Trannies love Fromsoft
But you're here hating it with your fellow discord members
I haven't even said anything about the game. Why are you gays so hypersensitivity about ER anyway?
>I haven't even said anything about the game
are you discord trannies even sending your best? or is this your best?
Are you homosexuals that obsessed with discord trannies? All I was wondering was how pre-ordering a game from a developer beloved by trannies could be seen as owning the trannies.
You're mentally ill fren
Bandai's fault, dipshit
eh, idk if id blame bandai. Do you remember a fromsoft employee, maybe miyizaki, gave an interview and got defensive when the interviewer said the butchers in the dark souls 1 sewers looked like males and the employee basically derailed the interview question over it by implying assuming genders was bad and then fans started saying all the butchers in the game were actually women because fromsoft "confirmed" it. I remember. Fromsoft is still subversive globohomosexual they are just good at making games.
i'm normally on board with this stuff, but you sound deranged. who gives a fricking shite about the fact that one employee at from thought the quality of their work was being attacked and got defensive over it. simmer down.
on the other hand, we have it confirmed that bandai is pushing for the subversive gender propaganda garbage. so if you really need to lash out at someone, target the right ones if you will.
Miyazaki is a westaboo just like Kojima. They idolize every western cultural aspect including the latest globohomosexual trends.
sure, that's why there's tons of weeb bait and 'oh rook nippon so sugoi' stuff in every from game. stupidly overpowered katanas and chad ronin characters. because he loves the west so much that he simply needs to shove his love for all things historically japanese into every single one of his works - whether it thematically enhances the final product or not (it does not).
truly, at last i see!
>defensive when the interviewer said the butchers in the dark souls 1 sewers looked like males and the employee basically derailed the interview question over it by implying assuming genders was bad and then fans started saying all the butchers in the game were actually women because fromsoft "confirmed" it
What
It's confirmed in the game dialogue by the pyromancer NPC, amd the butchers being women was to signify horror. This "don't assume gender" is your white western ad lib/mistranslatiin of the interview.
And Trannies get upset over it on Ganker too.
Evidence: your post
>western translates change male/female into A/B
>Gankerchuds slop it up
morons
Voting with my wallet.
Because its my fricking money
Being moronic obviously
NTA, Because I want it and can easily afford it
On both Xbox and PC
To support the only good videogame company
IO Interactive are good too. Look at how big Hitman 3/WoA is now
Worth the money but wait for sale
>turning hitman into single player live service with always online DRM
The games are good but IOI are fricking scum
Atlus still exists.
Because I live in america and it is entirely possible that the value of my dollar may collapse at any second due to the way things have been run for a century but specifically for the past couple years
you managed to be even more moronic than that
Your logic is backwards. If the dollar undergoes significant inflation by June then you'll just be able to buy the same game for cheaper. Steam or the publisher could counter this by adjusting the prices for inflation, but that's very unlikely to happen given that new games have been $60 for the past 20+ years despite all the inflation that has occurred during that time.
They are npc/drones with brand loyalty.
asiaticazaki laughs his ass off with these morons paying him 40 dollars for reskinned assets

what is AC6, Black person? At least do a basic Google search before shitposting.

>Why would you pay to have fun?
>Just work, eat and sleep
>Don't use your money on things you like
Uh sure.
These morons just want others to be as miserable as them.
The points you listed have nothing to do with pre-ordering.
Because when it finally comes out, it will be more enjoyable to skip the checkout process, not be reminded you’re giving them money. Getting that part over with now is nice.
Because I want them to make more stuff. Have you’d even the state of the gaming industry nowadays? Frick off Black person
What's the difference between pre-ordering now and doing so .001 seconds before release to get whatever in-game thing you get? If they show something so egregiously bad that I decide I don't want it anymore I can just cancel it.
Why the frick do you care. Does it hurt your pocket when others use their money? Are you that spiritually attached to others belongings your pure snowflake heart goes to shambles?
>Vote with your wallet
>N-NO NOT LIKE THIS STOP
My wife will be in it i know it
You morons are trying WAY too hard to shit on others to prop up your own failing ego. Pre-ordering is only bad if you're not sure you actually want the game or you're not sure if it's going to be any good. You can b***h and whine about From all you want but everyone that ACTUALLY likes their games know that they have a really great track record with DLC and thus it's safe to go ahead and grab something they know for a fact they'll be playing later.
Basically you're trying so hard to shit on them that you're outting yourself as stupid.
What's the point of pre-ordering it vs buying it day of
Some goysumer help me out here
>What's the point of pre-ordering it vs buying it day of
To go ahead and buy it now when you have disposable income and not have to worry about it? By your own logic what's the point in waiting until day 1 instead of just buying it now if you'll play it anyways and have the money?
You are such a huge homosexual.
I like how you have no argument for why my logic is BAD AND WRONG so you just attack me with generic insult #3 because the truth is that you're just pissed people are looking forward to something you don't think they should.
Pathetic
I’m calling you what you are, which is a homosexual. You’re choosing to spend your free time bragging about being able to spend forty dollars. I am not calling you a homosexual for being interested in a video game, anon.
>when you have disposable income and not have to worry about it?
What does this even mean, are goysoomer incapable of saving a bit of money on the side?
That guy is so wrapped up in his own bullshit insecurities with regards to how much money he makes that he can not understand why someone would not always make the choice that reinforces to themselves that they have money in the bank, ready to burn.
He isn't a poor so 40 dollars isn't an expenditure like it is for you.
I spend that much a day between lunch and dinner (I enjoy steak and crabcakes).
>crabcakes
just googled them and they look pretty tasty, you're eating good anon
you get a free gesture
real chads you pirate it
You get a neat emote. I'm gonna dab on early invaders by having it before they do.
It's also the same shape as the basalisk tails and is golden. It looks like any of the other mending runes.
you do know you can also get that in-game, right?
>I'm gonna dab on early invaders by having it before they do.
Why would you think I didn't?
That's fine.
New emote? The Elden Ring pre order emote was The Ring right?
Yeah
Yeah
How else am I going to get the FOMO emote? Plus, I enjoy reminding myself that my income is disposable enough to buy things purely for the sake of buying them. I love money! I love shopping.
You're trying too hard
I am clearly trying just hard enough.
Sometime you get bonuses for preordering, sometimes you get nothing, sometimes you get to preload stuff and avoid potential download slowdowns on release day.
Up to preference really, seething about preoders as LE DOWNFALL OF GAMING is moronic.
Early access, however is absolutely the devil
You can pre-load by pre ordering
What you say doesnt even make sense, its the same amount of money. Fricking buzzword spamming underage
Companies realized tons of gaymers are neet leeching off the government or their parents and thus have a ton of disposable income they'll throw at whatever stupid shit catches their attention, and they also realized that gaymers are extremely prone to sunk cost and feverishly defending poor choices, so they built a culture of FOMO to promote the idea that paying in advance for a product is something to be proud of.
The end result is idiots throwing money at companies in advance for minimal or no personal gain and then feeling the need to justify their purchases and shame others. From there the execs just sit back and let the cattle do the work for them.
Still pre ordering Shadow of the Erdtree
That’s awesome, son!
It's not an Ubisoft game, so I buy before playing.
>turn customers into fanatics
Yeah, still buying the DLC though
It’s especially frustrating to see as someone who also likes FromSoft’s games. Their games would be better if they didn’t cater to that kind of person.
good thing shadow of erdtree is an expansion and not just a common dlc. already bought it.
Why not
poor and i eat dirt
Witcher is great then. $10 for Hearts of Stone and $10 for Blood & Wine.
Bloodborne's DLC cost 20 dollars and I didn't see anyone complaining.
Iceborne was 40 dollars and that was worth
iceborne is trash, half the content is base game content reskinned
>previous content reskinned
that's the soul of Monster Hunter THOUGH
Its the soul of most games. No one actually cares the discord just uses it as a shitpost so anons will laugh at them.
Can i get a link to the discord?
They probably don't invite people from Ganker to it
Then how are they always in the threads you post in?
ok random poorgay on the internet
lmao shut the frick up
Based, anyone saying otherwise is mindless consoomer drone and must be killed on sight
You're just a poor 3rd worlder bud
I pay whatever for what I know is quality and a good time for me.
Don't care, still buying Shadow of the Erdtree
good thing fromsoft is releasing an expansion
Diablo 2 was 60$ and LoD expansion was like 30 or 40 and it's considered to be one of the greatest games of all times.
I know your zoomer brain is operating on the "DLC is basically a single character costume for 5$" premise, but this is not the case here, homosexual
In this case the DLC is eight swords and purple limgrave with four legacy dungeons in it
4 legacy dungeons is a lot anon, the base game only had 6 iirc
>le hecking disingenuous posting
funny
It's the same style of when they raid Dragon's Dogma 2 threads.
No way, I never do that. The $40 DLC is going to be even more dense than the base game!
>eight swords
8 weapon types
>purple limgrave
area THE SIZE of limgrave
>four legacy dungeons
legacy dungeons are fricking huge, your typical catacomb is not a legacy dungeon you moronic, disingenuous troonyhomosexual
Dude I was being serious. I loved taking screenshots of my guy in Elden Ring and riding my horsie around. The legacy dungeons were epic and made me really FEEL like I was really playing Dark Souls.
Why do Gankercels always tell you how to spend your money? Are you a favela monkey?
Dumbest shit I've read, DLC can refer to everything from a skin to a full-feature product as long as it's tacked onto another game.
I will if it’s good and FS is about the only ones who make dlc BETTER than the main game
>never pay for a game
Fix'd for you. ;^)
I mean that's not really a big deal considering how small the other DLCs were.
It has the size of Limgrave. I'm disappointed as frick.
He said it's bigger than Limgrave
Oh cool, so maybe a tiny bit bigger.
If it were way bigger, we would have chosen other words you moron.
And in another interview, he said the size of limgrave, MAYBE even bigger.
Yeah because he always undersells his games. Also Limgrave is pretty big if you consider East+West Limgrave + Weeping Peninsula counts as "Limgrave" on the map. Just like how Liurnia is split into 3 map fragments
Limgrave is like 1/4 the size of the map and the most content dense part of the game
Limgrave was the only enjoyable part of the map to me anyways. Hope the new game has nice green grass, when the map turned to lava and snow it sucked. The DLC seems to be all dark and gloomy.
He said the base game will take 30h to complete
Stop being so cynical. Most vidya devs are gay and cringe but fromsoft has a track record of dlcs being better than the base game
Limgrave is bigger in size than all of DS3 dumbass, what matters is not the square miles of map but the content thats packed in there.
Besides did you even see the trailer, its definitely bigger than Limgrave just by seeing it
>Limgrave is bigger in size than all of DS3
Yeah and yet it manages to feel more lackluster than Farron Keep
size doesn't mean anything (we learnt this from the main game) so if they're still advertising it as 'IT'S BIGLY!' then that's a red flag, simple as. oh and also nothing will ever compete with The Old Hunters in terms of expansions from has created.
It's going to be a massive area with frick all just like most of the base game.
I really wish they went back to making smaller games like the original Dark Souls
They should re-texture the old crypts/mausoleums with new types of textures and put newer/different/more varied enemies in them
I'm on my first playthrough, where should i stop playing if i want to play the DLC on my first run?
Nowhere. It's endgame DLC plus it supposedly has it's own progression system tacked on.
>It's endgame DLC
The entrance is Miquella's arm, it's what i got from the trailer atleast
Isn't Mohg fight in Siofra River?
It's inaccessible until you complete Varre's quest or reach a very lategame area, and even then is meant for ~level 100-130 with a +9 or +10 somber weapon, +24/25 for regular.
You need to beat Mogh
So probably around the time you reach Farum azula, before the Ashen capital and Malenia
Where's the dividing line between dlc and expansion packs ?
Doesn't exist.
I think developers who decided to make beefy stuff like this should've just gone back to call it expansion packs again because people correlate the term DLC as being light in content.
agreed
Zoomers don't know what are expansions. Also, it's probably not even the devs, but the market guys that choose to name things like that? (called TLOU2 "remaster" while it was just a 10$ upgrade?)
>it's probably not even the devs, but the market guys that choose to name things like that
This.
Remember that Kojima disproved of the updated version of Death Stranding being called the "Director's Cut" since the original game was already his full vision (He would have rather called it the "Director's Plus")
Kojima is a moron. If the base game was his full vision why would he put more stuff in
Because he was given the offer to add more
>new weapon type: Great katana
>meanwhile the game already had one
Thats just a long katana, a great katana is more an Odachi.
pics of the great katana?
Also i wish there was a mod to replaze the Zweihander for the Armored Warrior sword
Idk where that anon got the idea of "great katanas"
It was mentioned on the famistu interview. Not sure if it was showed on the trailer though
>just pure martial arts
>it wasn't just some random ash, it's literally martial arts weapon
KINO
they made the mod into a real thing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPESC2JRUSc

fricking neat
I prefer play as armored warrior saying zanzibart forgive me when you die
This one
So it has defense penetration besides the resurrection one time?
Messmer... forgive me
>Mesmmer... i have a dank shitpost... KINOOOOOOOO...*dies*
Lobo ;_;
MYRMIDON IS A TITLE NOT A NAME
Zanzibart did nothing wrong
> One rehashed area.
> That'll be 40 dorrah plus tip.
lol
Is it true that I have to beat Radahn AND MOHG to access that shit?
Yeah. Confirmed in interview.
>is it true you have to play for 30 minutes to access that shit?
Aye lass.
I believe it
If the shadow world is parallel to the actual world that ER happens in, why is Marika still revered there??
Doesn't seem that the Marika is loved around those parts.
Parallelism.
It's the Shadow Lands and Miyazaki's interviews imply that it's just country/continent or whatever, not some parallel world.
My guess is it's the land of the Numen.
Thats a wow expansion that was so bad almost everyone went to another crappy mmo
>Ctrl+C Ctrl+V
>IT'S DA LARGEST EVA
it didn't really look like it
Why did I pay more for nothing
Less than naked, he divested himself of his flesh.
But why is Miquella there? For what purpose? To be ascended like Marika??
Willl we get godwyn content tho?
No. Just reskinned/unused trash they keep in storage from DS3/BB or couldn't fit in the main game
Never he is dead even spiritually instead of putting lich dragon they should had put the cancer behind undead shit
Miyazaki said there'd be at least one optional superboss intended to be on-par with Malenia in power and memorability, so maybe.
Other candidates for that role include Femto Miquella and the Gloam-eyed Queen, whose corpse or still living self should be around somewhere since this land is where Marika won and became a god in the past.
>optional superboss intended to be on-par with Malenia in power and memorability
man I sure hope its memorable for being a good boss fight and not just irritating like malenia
Superboss will be a battered Gideon and Godrick soldier (ultra instinct -sign-) duo fight.
>Zero point shifts like the fricking Jehuty 1 second in
I closed it there. Mods are moronic.
Yes
at the beginning of the trailer when the kaiden whatever is riding towards the tree, u can see a lot of trees that look like deathroot and what looks like a swamp of deathblight.
Thats nothing impressive most are hallways with a swamp sice forest
Notice how the paralell shadow world has those rags hanging from the sky just like in marika bedchamber
Its probably a dream. And that's to represent it is a bed arround
I thought of the veil that'd be hanging over a bed at first, too, thinking of something dream-like.
But we already know the Shadow Realm is a place that was physically separated from the Lands Between, and it's where Marika first set foot.
At best, it might be something like Byrgenwerth college's lecture hall floating in a dream after being sucked in.
>and it's where Marika first set foot
Chances GEQ shows up?
Funniest thing is that's a Borderlands developer seething
Based FromKINO
>Chances GEQ shows up?
If Messmer isn't directly tied into her story, the chances are probably slim because I'd imagine the DLC will focus on him and his story.
Though it was said we'll learn about the past of the Shadow Realm and of Marika as well, so who knows. But I have to wonder how many stories they can cram in there in a reasonable way. Maybe it is all tied together.
Are you the homosexual from last night who tries to push his Melina = Marika = Gloam Eyed Queen headcanon because he doesn't understand how the rune of death was sealed?
No, but doesn't FF ending confirms Melina is GEQ? Also Melina is Marika's daughter, not Marika thats obvious
>Chances GEQ shows up?
I'd stake my soul on the fact that her and Godwyn are the "Malenia-like" optional superbosses that were mentioned in interviews
It confirms there is some connection between the two but it isn't fully sufficient to prove they are the same person
>I'd stake my soul on the fact that her and Godwyn are the "Malenia-like" optional superbosses that were mentioned in interviews
Hope they're Rennala-resque bosses
>Borderlands developer seething
AHAHAHAH
I want to frick marika in her bedchamber if you know what I mean
It's not a dream, it's a conceiled Realm
Her body is probably there, she divested herself of flesh much like Miquella
Her beat eye is the same Messmer has
>Her beat eye is the same Messmer has
Pic?
I would fricking hope for 40 goddamn dollars, From DLC is usually only like 3 hours long at absolute maximum.
>3 hours
if you skip past everything and follow the obvious main route in a straight line towards the end, yea. you don't do that, anon, do you? you do explore every nook and cranny like a real gamer-chad would, right, anon?
>he watched the trailer
yikes... guess you're not interested in experiencing it first hand
so, how's it end goy?
I'm just hoping for a single armor set of the heaviest category that doesn't look like shit
The new weapon TYPES is interesting, I hope they add some of those to the original map and have all the new weapons locked to the DLC area.
im happy bone fist is back
>Shadow of the Erdtree is the largest Fromsoft DLC ever
It had 2.5 years of dev time. All other DLCs had a year or or less
>tfw a giga homie rune bear in the trailer
Bullshit
>even gigger and more Black person than the regular rune bears
im scared bros
Is this Miquella?
that's messmer the new guy, marika's son probably with radagon
i'm guessing he is the firstborn and the reason he went all snake traitor was getting passed up as favorite for the godwyn
Wonder if he really exists is this is a dream world.
its not a dream world is a real part of the world that was hidden away by marika for some reason, its also not in the past or future or any shit like that
Oh cool, it's actually happening in the world that's good. I was actually worried it would be some lame shit like it's the past or a dream world like the Tarnished journey wouldn't matter
But the guy was never mentioned in the main game right?
not by name but people have found "the impaler catacombs" with a ghost outside saying "oh marika he is your unwanted child", and since its been confirmed she is his mother its likely the smoldering butterfly is in reference to him much like the other 2 were to the cursed twins
miyazaki also said it won't unlock a new ending tho it'll be self contained so who knows how that'll go
alright
>miyazaki also said it won't unlock a new ending tho it'll be self contained so who knows how that'll go
well i hope it atleast adds some stuff with Melina and readds the healing Malenia quest
He didn't mention that the base game wouldn't have some additional refinements, so here's hoping.
>He didn't mention that the base game wouldn't have some additional refinements
Should i wait for the DLC to come out or should i keep playing?
I'm gonna make a new character for the DLC and start all fresh
i burnt out in farum azula after 200 hours of clearing EVERYTHING, and just couldn't continue. i think i'll also start fresh, but this time just focus on downing the major bosses and work my way through
Wait, you can't parry spear enemies? I died to that spear dude in the area where you meet Melina for the first time. I can parry anyone with my small shield, except for that spear dude.
you fricked up the timing, simple as
I'm disappointed, ER is lacking a lot of multiplayer features from previous games and they don't even mention multiplayer with a single word in the interview or a single frame in the trailer. I hope I'm wrong but it seems like they don't give a shit anymore.
As they should
There are too many normalgays in this community now after ER got popular, shame it wasn't gatekept harder so we could keep having fun multiplayer in these games.
The difference between expansion packs and dlcs was that expansion packs used to be sold as either stand alone and came with a new installer. DLCs were very bite sized things added unto the main game.
I'd say that Shadow of the Erdtree is a definite expansion considering they are fricking selling a collector's edition with it. No DLC gets treatment like that. Based on the trailer as well, it also feels like something of a soft sequel along the lines of TOTK but they sold it as DLC anyway.
>same snake thing as Rykard
So Snakes are Radagon shit?
elden ring isnt fun over level 60 so the dlc will end up being some incredibly stupid shit like level 200 unless you can start in it as a base character.
They added something similar to the Sekiro attack upgrade system for beating mini bosses.
Based on the way it was talked about in the interview it seems this is for people who rush to the dlc area as soon as possible whereas people playing on a post-game character can just rush from boss to boss without interacting with this system.
Who cares about this shit game.
Apparently a lot of people, including you
Otherwise you wouldn't be here now woud youl
I'm here to shit on it, there's a difference.
Sure buddy
They are mostly underaged and 100% mentally ill so they will keep doing it
So maybe i should stop my playthrough for a bit
You could try a bit harder.
So far your best has been "Who cares?" about the very, very successful game.
This reeks of contrarian cope. Go back to fortnite.
You'd think shazam discord troons would learn the first time and not pick a fight they can't win.
cant wait for another pointless map to ride around and collect erdleaf flowers in! im sure the bosses will be good but 90% of this games "content" is 0 gameplay fluff. i love how people worshipped souls became it trimmed away the fat of le open world games, and now they shovel that same slop in peoples faces and of course they love it now because le miyazaki
just dont play it bro, literally no one is forcing you to
i want to play it because of the bosses, i just wish there was a way to enjoy this games actual fun parts without having to spend 5 minutes on the horse in between the actual good parts. if you are normie enough to actually enjoy the open world veneer in between the actual gameplay, more power to you
Do you also run past all of the enemies and straight to the bosses in all other games?
Some of the most fun i has was riding around taking screens
This sounds like one of those fantasy books that has EDITED BY G R R Martin in bigger text then the authors name.
I don't know if anybody noticed but this is the Red Flame of the Blood Star. It look like the DLC will still be focused on Marika, Messmer and Femto/Miquella but also include elaborating on several lore elements. We see Death Priests and also Thorn stuff for Abberrant/Thorn sorceries. It has even a decoation showing a face of a Goddess and a star as emblem
hope there's more cosmic horror bosses
There's also grafting and Crucible stuff. In fact, this omen (or egen 2 omen) grafted onto himself a beast, and is physically moving with his hand his jaw even while it attacks
>chinese parade dragon but edgy
I kinda like it, ngl
>
I didn't want to think of that anymore
I didn't think Old Hunters was that good
Miquella is stuck as St Trina (that's the girl voice in the end of the trailer) since we saw his dead shell on Mohg
Miqualla isn't stuck, the description said he shed his flesh to come in the Shadow Realm. This really makes more likely that he is the final boss
so vlad the impaler is a red herring?
I think so as well, the very first line of the trailer implies Miquella is clearly the real villain
There's not a single Fromsoftware DLC where the final boss was revealed. It was always another one.
We also see Marika's veils from the sky hiding the Realm of Shadows, her past, yet with Miquella brings light again, so the fact that his power to compel affection and control people is even narrated as creepy and dangerous really shows Miquella might become even more corrupt than the corrupted reality he wants to change and disposing of Messmer might be part of Miquella's plan to use Death. Notice how the stream of amber dropping from the tree actually isn't moving, and the city has debris floating like Farum Azula. The whole location is stuck in Stasis with darkness, like the Ringed City. We know Elden Ring also introduces a lot of discarded ideas and plot elements from Dark Souls 3. Miquella bringing light might cause Death to take over the Shadow of the Erdtree
Are you sure Sister Friede and Slave Knight Gael weren't revealed in the trailers?
He meant fighting as a boss in their arena
Gael's only shown in the launch trailer for the DLC which are always rife with spoilers.
I think hes just given up on physical form and has gone all in on metaphysical shenanigans. He looks no different than normal in the trailer and promo image so I don't see why this would be a separate st. Trina form. Women voicing young boys is pretty standard because its close enough and child actors are a pain in the ass so I don't think the voice is an indicator of anything.
pls miyazaki
>MIyazaki said there's no plans for an Elden Ring sequel
Why get GRRM to world build for you, have a massive financial and critical success with Elden Ring, and just decide you're done with it after a single game?
This expansion is basically the sequel, and there will probably be more
I just hope we get at least 2 expansions
Miyazaki said there's no plans for anymore DLC/expansions or a sequel for Elden Ring. This is it
That depends on how much money it brings in
What are they gonna do? Make a NEW ip? Go back to ds?
>Make a NEW ip
That would be a first in atleast 20 years
>Make a NEW ip?
Leaks say yes, a magic focused game or something like that. Something like Hogwarts i guess
>Go back to ds?
DS ended anon
I hope so. FS's next game is magic focused and i dont care for it
not a single souls DLC has been good. They've all been middling AT BEST.
you never played any souls game
i don't have it in me to care anymore. i'm burnt out on the souls formula.
>dude le largest dlc ever
It doesn't even add a new ending and they were too lazy to balance it properly so there's some artificial difficulty handicap system in place to nerf you. Hopefully they add an option to skip the base game and start in the dlc with a premade character if its so self-contained I can't be fricked to replay their 200 hour copy paste dungeon rpg.
>too lazy to balance it properly so there's some artificial difficulty handicap system in place to nerf you
what a moronic fricking take, the system is there so that you can tackle the DLC as early as you want OR even with your SL300 character still sitting in NG.
You literally can't ask for a better system, unless you are a shitter who needs to be horribly overleveled to tackle any boss in the game.
>Trailer is out no talk of it.
FIST CHADS WE ARE SOOO SOOO BACK.
Shadow of the Turd Tree.
My faith in gaming has been restored.
I don't know much about Elden Ring, is Miquella a girl?
Yes, ______________________(no)
He's a boy cursed to look eternally like a kid just like his sister Malenia was cursed with Scarlet Rot
Nah
Anyone saying yes is a pedophile of some variety.
No, he is Griffith
She is a girl(male).
Miquella is a boy who got his soul stuck in a tree after his ugly bastard uncle made off with his still living body which he regularly uses as an onahole to frick his way into royalty.

bros... I may need to make an alt account........
I think I hate the Berserk posters even more than I hate discordBlack folk.
moron Miyazaki shamelessly put a shitload of Berserk shit in it
>I hate the Berserk posters
>posts Berserk
What did the self-loathing moron mean by this?
Berserk is great. I'm talking about the morons who think everything has to be le epic Berserk reference just because Miyazaki likes it.
They are the same group.
The miquella is griffith posters are old hat they always show up when the sisterhood is shitposting because they are the same people.
I hate trannies and you should 41% falseflagging subhuman
You are part of their group stop doing this. If you played the game even 1 time you'd know Miquella isn't actually like Griffith at all.
Of course you do homosexual. None of us are new here it is always the same group posting the same agitprop shitposts.
I literally just posted about my 9 finished builds. Take your meds. I do not give a frick what you reply to this, I have better things to do than argue on the internet with a falseflagging shit stirring homosexual. No More (You)'s freak
I have no idea what you're talking about. I just think Miquella will be the final boss and since he's a twink who everyone says it's good like Griffith the parallels are there
>53 dollars in Canada
Rakebros how are we feeling?
Every day is more miserable than the last
It’s a full-featured expansion and not just DLC, anon. You should be grateful it isn’t $70.
I'd pay 70 for it. Maybe 80 if it came with a cool emote like the pre-order of the base game had.
My thoughts exactly. From has such a great track record with DLC that I’d gladly pay double of what they charged me for the previous DLC.
>From has such a great track record with DLC
are we forgetting about people shitting on Dark Souls 2 dlcs because of reskin Smelter Demon and Frigid outskirts? even the first DaS3 dlc received criticism as it only had one boss fight (no, the gravetender champion doesn't count) and being way too short
Yeah, we’re forgetting about that. Your just a hater
are they going to add a mode that gets rid of the open world slop so you can actually enjoy the 10% of this "game" that is actual gameplay?
Yeah it's called follow the grace light and ignore everything else.
In the word of Varre
>The path that a Tarnished must travel.
>Mm, indeed. Grace's guidance holds the answers.
>It will lead you Tarnished to the path you are meant to follow.
uhhhhh anon
this game points you to the next bonfire automatically
unless you're purposefully getting lost it's not a hard game to follow
Oh so this is the new tactic from you discord homosexuals
ehy, know what I would like them to add? photomode
Me too, having to disable the HUD every time is tiring
pathetic
>$40 for the size of Limgrave
AHAHAHAHA
as long they actually pack the area with some good stuff and avoid adding open fields to pick flowers in I'm good (although, to be fair, TW3's Blood and Wine was €20 and it included a whole new region, so I do get why people think the price is too high)
Frick off, it’s going to have unprecedented depth in its level design and serve as yet another demonstration of Hidetaka Miyazaki’s mastery over the action adventure genre. Seriously just frick off
You slurp the turds straight from my ass and you like it, you fricking freak.
It better fricking be, my currency is so fricking garbage that I'm going to pay exactly as much on the DLC as I paid for the base game on sale.
>no new ending
don't care
What are the chances this is the hardest boss in the DLC?
>all the mending runes you put into the ring affix to the bottom and make a new fractal outer ring
>this is gold and looks like the basilisk tale
This is Godwyn's actual rune
that's the old man in the painting, probably Messmer's father
I'm thinking the yellow thing stabbing him could've been made in a way similar to the black knives but using another rune other than Rune of Death since there's a similarity in how the blade branches off and it clearly resembles some sort of great rune. Since the blade couldn't have possibly stabbed him that way in its current state, it looks like he was stabbed with a normal sword and then they did the rite on the blade already in him to do this.
My guess is that this is something messmer does with his own great rune which gives him the "impaler" moniker. I think the DLC will show that this is how Ranni learned how to craft the black knives.
>My guess is that this is something messmer does with his own great rune which gives him the "impaler" moniker
makes sense
It looks like it is in the shape of the tail godwyn aquires. A bunch of the gear dedicated to him has the marquee basilisk tail integrated into it (like the shield).
The "inside" of basilisks and dragons are a deep yellow gold like that weird barby spike thing.
very likely imo, the second i saw that guy i fricking knew that this would probably be a "secret" boss that surpasses malenia, orphan of kos, etc
wow another poison swamp, but instead of using one of your 99 green boluses to get rid of the poison, youre going to have to use one of your 99 black boluses. michael zaki, youve done it again. another GOTY!
I hope there's a whole new ending path in the DLC liek Gods and Glory in Hollow Knight, rather than just beat up the final boss, du-du-du-duuuuuuuuh you got the Mending Rune of Miquella, now frick off and fight the Elden Beast for the hundredth time to watch a new cutscene.
>biggest DLC EVER
This really isn't saying much given how small the areas in all the previous DLCs are, like most From DLCs you can finish in an afternoon or so.
>This really isn't saying much
I don't think it's trying to.
messmer, yet another elden twink designed solely so trannies have another thing to cosplay
Looks like an elric type brooding villain.
Kino
Love this game so much
the art direction is top notch, although I got pretty tired of seeing the erdtree everywhere I went (ye, I do understand it's significance, still annoying)
I wish there was a mod to remove the compass when the rest of the hud fades, having to change it on system options is tiresome
>size of the entirety of limgrave, and even bigger apparently
>packed with legacy dungeons and less open world generic crap
>new weapon variants, sorceries and incantations out the ass
>bosses and areas look absolutely kino
we won
Elden Ring is empty boring slop

that's NOT what it's called
Um, yes it is actually.
>all the people arguing about the price when I'll just get it from the PirateBay store for $0
I'm finna be honest with you, the trailer was bad
Wat didn’t the young master like about the trailer
i saw someone complaining that it was just freecam of the game being played
literally saying the trailer was bad because it only showed gameplay
Lol self-snitching about the game being boring but pretty, cool
complaining that it wasn't cinematic enough is the exact opposite of that dumbo
>this gameplay looks boring!
Yeah ok
Who are you quoting?
ximself
kek
>average discord troony underage reading comprehension
For me there was nothing exciting about it. Environments just looked like a duller version of what is already available. Enemies shown looked like shit I've already killed a hundred times before and the story draw was non-existing which is par the course for from software.
Overall it really does seem like just more of Elden ring but in a duller light. I'm hoping this is more Ringed city than it is Painted world but nothing got me hyped so far
But anon, it’s only forty bucks.
Shadow of the Bad Game
Miyazaki is going to do this for Armored Core 6 btw, an expansion
I would expect Yamamura to be the one handling the AC6 expansion but sure wouldn’t complain if Miyazaki did instead.
Largest expansion out of really small expansions isn't that large at all.
the whole dlc is Miquella's dream
>big lion looking creature spawned by the crucible (same as the porcupine)
>the main area is a recollection of Limgrave and the capital
>the sorcerer guy is either Azul or Lusat
>the girl in the painting is Fia
>the big pots are related to the creation of the jar warriors
>the snakes surrounding Messmer are pretty similar to Rya, maybe her brother?
>unknown mother Rykard obviously fricked Marika
isnt it confirmed NOT a dream?
the only thing that has been confirmed is that it won't take place in the past
mother Rykard obviously fricked Marika
I think the man is enough of a degenerate already
Theres the curtains in the Sky, unveiling the twisted redtree.
This is more like a parallel realm or something. the curtains unveiling the gaping hole in the sky and the twisted erdtree make me with it is literally the "Veil" being lifted. Its not a dream, its whats really going on at some level.
I remember lore snippets in the base game saying that the erdtree we see in base game isn't even real.
It's not a dream you fricking moron. The veil serves to hide it. It's a painting style area except it's the Realm before the Erdtree sprouted in the Lands Between
>it's the Realm before the Erdtree sprouted in the Lands Between
So it's a time travel then you fricking moron?
>So it's a time travel then
no
It's not a dream. The veil serves to hide it. It's a painting style area except it's the Realm before the Erdtree sprouted in the Lands Between.
Rykard has nothing to do with Messmer. The only thing they have in common is that both use communion, which is comsidered Blasphemy by the Golden Order but common in a pre-Erdtree society
Can't wait till the end of the year when every awards show/game of the year list starts or ends with "I would love to give Shadow of the Erdtree GotY but its an expansion so we''re begrudgingly giving it to X instead"
This is not going to happen, because Dragon's Dogma 2 will btfo everything else this year.
By the end of the year nobody but ragebaiters here will even remember this game, unless it releases something big more towards the half or end of the year.
It's just a DLC, people will play it, talk a bunch about it and 3 weeks later everyone will have moved on to something newer.
Sure thing discordtroony. Elden Ring is the game of the century. A game that will never be forgotten because you anti shills seethe whenever someone says they will buy and preorder Elden Ring content.
>By the end of the year nobody but ragebaiters here will even remember this game
You're saying this since 2022 sister...
Does anybody have any idea why the game keeps on stuttering on my pc, with loading times worth of a ps4? GPU being too weak is not the issue, and the game is installed on ssd
ray tracing? Also put on borderless fullscreen
>ray tracing
Doesn't change anything having it on or off, gpu usage is 40% with it off and 80% on
>borderless fullscreen
Disables hdr, and couldn't see any real improvement either
>Disables hdr
Mine is disabled both fullscreen or bordereless
From games have some funky behavior when it comes to hdr, borderless prevents you to use it altogether, and AutoHDR creates some more problems
Might be orbital wobble
They are in all threads since they make the threads so anons will laugh at them. They are lolcows.
Gross, a Kiwi Farms user.
I don't know what that is.
Yeah huh! You’re a bad liar and an even worse poster.
Don't really get it but cool dude. I'm guessing you aren't taking your medications.
They're still buckbroken and crying after 2 years in this very thread and it's hilarious
From has earned my good will by not making a bad game in over 10 years. This DLC is very expensive and if it were anyone else (fricking Todd) I would be worried. However, I have no doubts that this will be worth the money.
I will just say it. I think the art direction in Elden Ring looks tacky.
I'm excited, but £40? I'll wait to hear how big it is first. If it's roughly half the size of the main game it'll be worth it. If it's just a small landmass then I might skip it.
>DD2 at the beginning
>ERSotE in the middle
What will be the fantasy kino at the end of the year?
I want to go into the DLC as blind as possible after watching the trailer once. When I should I start abstaining from going Ganker? In a few months? I know people are going to dataminer and there will be leaked webms on here because I know this board can't help itself. I just need to find a replacement board to shitpost on for 2-4 months
filter?
never played elden ring. should I wait to purchase the complete edition or buy it now?
the dlc will not affect the main game according to miyazaki, it will be self contained, so no, you dont need to wait
I wanna do a str/fth playthrough, what weapon and incantations should I use for best role-playing?
I'm gonna go for the Deus Vult armor, with perhaps the twin eagle shield or something else
Be a beast cleric. That was my first playthrough, I love the way those incants feel and look even if the damage is subpar. Dragon Cult stuff is good and flavorful too. As for weapons, maybe the envoy horns?
>largest ever
>already confirmed full of palette swapped mobs, bosses, and areas
Oh joy...
>shadow realm
>miyazaki mentioned the size of area is hard to explain
So that one leaker anon was right?
Shadow realm is fragmented and they are parallels to locations from the base game
So are Elden Ring haters just trannies, israelites, and Nintendo fans?
They're people who like games and are sick of Fromslopware releasing the same game over and over and over
youre proving him right sisters...
Trannies love Elden Ring, what are you talking about?
pretty much
why would i?
>So are Elden Ring haters just trannies, israelites, and Nintendo fans?
they are real souls fans who liked the games before they were open world reddit simulators
I was a Fromfan before they became another Ubisoft and started making parodies of their real games.
yes, as you can see by most replies to your post
Just troonsters yee
They're just deranged people on a Discord server. They get a kick out of it. Go figure.
all the imagery and references to the crucible are making me excited. thought that idea was one of the strongest elements in ER's lore that didn't get developed much
the crucible is the religion before the erdtree right
yeah the one the erdtree literally "grew" from...making it live literally in the erdtree's shadow. it's gonna get primordial
>same difficulty as the Elden Ring endgame
Lost a lot of interest right there honestly. The last 3-4 hours of the game were a painful experience for me.
almost all soulsborne dlcs are considered endgame content, it shouldnt be much of a surprise, if anything it might make the endgame feel less like shit
>didn't enjoy Farum Azula and the Haligtree
out of curiosity, what were your favorite parts of the game?
Limgrave, Raya Lucaria, Volcano Manor, Leyndell
I like Farum Azula and Haligtree as levels. It's more that I took forever to beat both Maliketh and Malenia.
>Volcano Manor
Are you gay
I hope you anons got your twink characters ready.
Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree is FromSoftware’s “newest product available for sale” ever
HOURS of CONTENT!
EIGHT new TOYS!
NEW AREA that is also THE OLD AREAS!
Shazamtroony... Just stop.
Why? Aren’t you having fun?
daily reminder that being scared of pussy doesn't make you a man
This is why I'm excited for the DLC.
>theres a hallway with palette swapped monsters before the boss
Sunbros... Miyahacki was a fraud???
at least the source material is good
seriously wtf are you discord trannies even doing
Miquella is 100% Femto
this guy is a bigger hack than kojima
lmao Literally no shame.
I love berserk, but berserkgays are insufferable. Same with Guts cosplayers.
Shut the frick up you homosexual moron. The whole trailer open with how fricked up and threatening Miquella's control powers are. Miquella is 100% Griffith, somebody that ends up corrupting himself in the process of trying to fix a corrupted world. Haligtree is literally Falconia. The Realm of Shadow is literally Ringed City - cut content version, and is also hidden with Marika's veil and in Darkness to keep it in time stasis (the amber falling is static and there's floating rocks) until Miquella brings light, which is 100% making things worse, possibly having Death that is strangling the Shadow of the Erdtree spread even more
Yes, Miquella (Femto) is the final boss
