It takes a really long time to make a big open field with jackshit in it, please understand. They've also got to take the time <1 month before release to cut all the new story content they've written for literally no reason whatsoever.
Meanwhile genshin releases massive updates with new open world zones every few months for free. Imagine still being excited for the latest installment of from's stale rollslop when genshin exists.
it's a snorefest. You're supposed to grind for mats, then invest them in roulette waifus that require real money. Then do it again next month, and after, and after. Collect the pieces of crystal junk to improve your asinine weapon to +5! Next month you'll have to spend real money to replace it anyway, and improve that too.

they literally are working for me. they are game devs and i'm their customer. they get paid by me, and they owe me video games for that because that is their purpose: making video games.
And? We used to get dozens of Nintendo games every year, now we get 1 if we're lucky. This is how ALL development goes. Think of how fast they used to churn out aircraft carriers vs now
>It’s unacceptable.
the frick are you talking about you entitled little shit?
After almost a decade of vidya being released in a shit state before it's ready, finally some developers take their time. This is a good sign.
this one's actually going to be good? Like how is DS2 a measuring stick for anything other than dogshit?
>Developing a D L C (!!!!) for longer time than a whole game is actually good because.. Uhhhhh.... Well.... Because I can spend more time not playing the game!
Fromdrones CONFIRM they don't actually like the game... Holy FRICK.
DS2 was rushed to hell, so something taking longer to make than something that was rushed to hell can only mean that it's not being rushed as much, and therefore hopefully won't be as shitty it still will be, though
Reminder that ER, which is NOTORIOUS for it's long development cycle only took 5 years to make. Meanwhile they are casually spending THREE YEARS to make a DLC.
It's honestly over for Fromsoft at this point.
NO game dev plans a game without dlc in mind anymore. ever since they became a thing, they have become mandatory. i am still 100% certain they cut content that would normally be in the base game and hold it back just so they can release it later and milk you for even more of your money.
>plan to make the video game Elden Ring >capital and labor are assigned with the expectation of the game selling about the same as past Fromsoft games >Elden Ring is made under these conditions and is released >Elden Ring sells really really well, shockingly well >plan to make some DLC >capital and labor are now assigned using very different expectations >these conditions fricking suck
Hopefully, there's no excuse for them not to. There's no more pandemic interruption, they have more developers onboard to work on it, and it's in development longer than some of their games at this point.
At this point the DLC Will basically be ER2.
It's probably gonna add content in every area, not just one or two endgame areas with legacy dungeons.
Maybe they'll do a mechanic like lords of the fallen 2 where you can switch between 2 realities/timelines so they can use the map and add a bunch of new shit in every area without changing the base game.
You homosexuals complain about DLC being lackluster but when a company makes an actual expansion pack (something zoomers never heard of), then you throw a fit like a child
I like how some Fromsoft fans are obsessively stalking the Elden Ring steamdb page for updates
The DLC is already there unlisted and it keeps getting updated because they're in the middle of play testing it, and each time it gets updated they freak out "GAISE IT'S HAPPENING AAAAAAAAAAAAA" or whatever when it just means the status changed from "it's not out yet" to "it's still not out yet"
I notice that the only kind of people that are THAT obsessed are Valve fans years ago whenever some Half-Life 3 files are found tucked in some random game files or something and more recently, GTA fans searching for Linkedin accounts on crumbs of info on GTA 6.
>Nintendo fans buying stock in Nintendo so they can suggest new F-Zero games at a board meeting
Sounds pretty based ngl. If you're a rich fanboy, that's the thing you should've done.
Honestly? Yes, despite playing a sub optimal build in my first playthrough i kinda breezed through most of the game, with the exceptions being Malenia and Godskin Duo, and only one of those is fun hard. Not to mention the basic enemies all feel slower than das3's roster.
I want some tough enemies to use the now optimized build i have.
people wanted open world. it won goty and got 10/10. but guess what? it takes 3x longer to make.
this is what the masses wanted so thats what we get.
no more traditional from software games.
no one heeded my warning about it before elden ring came out. its what you get now.
From never intended to make a DLC until they saw ERs sales numbers. they had already allocated resources to other projects like "unannounced game" and armored core. From only began development of Shadow toward the middle and end of ACs dev cycle.
AC was worked on by a different team of 100 people, From has around 400 total so the development shouldn't have overlapped much. As for the true development of the DLC, the earlier hint of it being worked on was at the end of 2022 when the Coliseum update provided the dataminers with some vague data on new contents still under development.
Frick i hope this DLC will be huge, it looks like they will fill it up with content, I feel like they will deliver and Elden Ring will become an untouchable timeless masterpiece.
they better remake the entire combat system if they want me to come back to rollslop >built in perfect block >light rolls are bb steps >kung fu ashes for fists >manual aim for spells
We could remake ff6 in about 20 years. Give From time to make the DLC.
I had a dream where I was in a swamp with Airsoftfatty and we just burnt down the erdtree, but that summoned zombies to chase us down. So we had to run through a swamp to get in a motorboat, then we started pouring gallons of bleach behind us because it would react with the swamp water and make a poison cloud behind us that would stop the zombies from chasing us as well as obscure their vision. The fishtank house was the safe zone and as soon as we got inside we slammed the front door. We thought it was good content.
I bet the new area will be pink
Think about it
Caelid:Red
Giants/gelmir volcano: Orange
Altus: Yellow
Limgrave:Green
Liurnia: Blue
Siofra river / Nox: Purple (and associated with sleep and st trina)
Snow areas: White
Farum Azula: off-white
Miquella supposed to be able to charm anyone, and the charming branches crafted from the Miquella's Lilly are pink. (They're also super fun to use on enemies and watch the charmed ones duke it out vs regular monsters)
It’s unacceptable. We got 3 games in this series from 2014-2016
>It’s unacceptable.
They're not working for you. They don't owe you anything. You have no connection to Fromsoft. Sit the frick down.

is that game actually good? i thought it was just a generic hack and slash with microtransaction waifus or something
supposedly it's not half bad, but it's gacha trash
that's exactly what it is. don't let the zoomers fool you.

Imagine playing à gatcha game for trannies like genshin ..
It only shows you didnt had à dad as à kid kek

>Meanwhile the slot machine pachinko simulator-
Don't care, let's move on
You didn't play it
only brown subhumans and fujo filth are willing to touch the giant pile of dog shit that is genshit
they literally are working for me. they are game devs and i'm their customer. they get paid by me, and they owe me video games for that because that is their purpose: making video games.
A customer chooses to buy a product or a service when it's available. Did you pay in advance? Do they accept commissions?
No? Thought so.
doesn't matter. they exist to serve.
you exist to gargle cum
these things are not mutually exclusive
Says the corpo dick sucker.
And 2 of these 3 games were terrible
>You shouldn't care about the video game industry, instead, you should just suck corporate wiener.
God forbid this place from thinking.
back to plebbit you colossal homosexual
are u working for them? or are u sucking their wiener for free LMAO
And? We used to get dozens of Nintendo games every year, now we get 1 if we're lucky. This is how ALL development goes. Think of how fast they used to churn out aircraft carriers vs now

it still will be, though
Shafted to allocate more manpower to the mobile game. Expect it to come out in 2025-2026.
they're trying to concoct a worse designed move than waterfowl dance, give them time
Reminder that ER, which is NOTORIOUS for it's long development cycle only took 5 years to make. Meanwhile they are casually spending THREE YEARS to make a DLC.
It's honestly over for Fromsoft at this point.
they werent even planning on making a paid DLC until after they found out how popular the game was
>Source: My mom said so
leaker guy on the internet said so and basically proved it by saying what an announcement would be in a week before fromsoft made the announcement.
NO game dev plans a game without dlc in mind anymore. ever since they became a thing, they have become mandatory. i am still 100% certain they cut content that would normally be in the base game and hold it back just so they can release it later and milk you for even more of your money.
Sekiro
Armored core
It’s normal for from.
>plan to make the video game Elden Ring
>capital and labor are assigned with the expectation of the game selling about the same as past Fromsoft games

>Elden Ring sells really really well, shockingly well

id like to believe they're going all out with the dlc
Hopefully, there's no excuse for them not to. There's no more pandemic interruption, they have more developers onboard to work on it, and it's in development longer than some of their games at this point.

>so they can use the map and add a bunch of new shit in every area without changing the base game
DING DING DING
Just sell it as a new game. Who cares about being held to a higher standard than Nintendo?
I don't even know what I want from the DLC besides more Lightning Ashes of War.
D.
and you want a multiplayer overhaul for the dlc
>Official seamless co-op
>Covenants system
>Overhaul to invasion
That's all I want on the multiplayer side
back in my day we called them expansion packs.
>This DLC will take more time to develop than DS2
You can't rush quality, as the very existence of DS2 can attest to.
"a delayed game will eventually be good. a rushed game will forever be bad." - the keebler elf (house of telvanni)
Elden Ring is both delayed and rushed like Dark Souls 2. The dlc will be the same.
Yup. They literally had to patch in quests after release, kek.
Prediction: It's cancelled and they'll rolling it into Elden Slop 2
Prediction: You will never escape Venezuela or afford a computer
At minimum it'll release as a standalone
Uh yeah you must have slipped when replying yourself or something. Thanks for the (You) though
You're welcome.
It'll reuse the Elden Ring 1 map, modelling itself on BotW
You homosexuals complain about DLC being lackluster but when a company makes an actual expansion pack (something zoomers never heard of), then you throw a fit like a child
yeah the dlc will be another bloated mess, more effort for a worse experience thanks to the open world gays
nobody cares about armored core

Or Nintendo fans buying stock in Nintendo so they can suggest new F-Zero games at a board meeting
Or Sonic fans being Sonic fans
Or... etc.
>Nintendo fans buying stock in Nintendo so they can suggest new F-Zero games at a board meeting
Sounds pretty based ngl. If you're a rich fanboy, that's the thing you should've done.
it's going to be a sequel/prequel at this point
You guys prepared to die? xD
What's next? Elden ring fans begging to be in white male fart porn?
Honestly? Yes, despite playing a sub optimal build in my first playthrough i kinda breezed through most of the game, with the exceptions being Malenia and Godskin Duo, and only one of those is fun hard. Not to mention the basic enemies all feel slower than das3's roster.

less time than BOTW's DLC
people wanted open world. it won goty and got 10/10. but guess what? it takes 3x longer to make.
this is what the masses wanted so thats what we get.
no more traditional from software games.
no one heeded my warning about it before elden ring came out. its what you get now.
>no more traditional from software games.
You mean aside form the tradition from software game that came out last year? You giant fricking moron?
Let them cook.
>What went wrong
it's pretty clear.
From never intended to make a DLC until they saw ERs sales numbers. they had already allocated resources to other projects like "unannounced game" and armored core. From only began development of Shadow toward the middle and end of ACs dev cycle.
AC was worked on by a different team of 100 people, From has around 400 total so the development shouldn't have overlapped much. As for the true development of the DLC, the earlier hint of it being worked on was at the end of 2022 when the Coliseum update provided the dataminers with some vague data on new contents still under development.
this is moronic and incorrect
datamining showed that they had DLC shit early in development as soon as the game came out
the bussy gotta hit just right
DS2 was developed since 2011 so factually wrong.
Frick i hope this DLC will be huge, it looks like they will fill it up with content, I feel like they will deliver and Elden Ring will become an untouchable timeless masterpiece.
they better remake the entire combat system if they want me to come back to rollslop
>built in perfect block
>light rolls are bb steps
>kung fu ashes for fists
>manual aim for spells
have a nice day you homosexual moron
What's DS2 development time anyway?
Let him cook.
The feet need to be pixel perfect.
When did they say that?
digits, and it'll be totk version.
same map, different time.
seriously they already have the engine in place, so if the dlc is not the same/bigger size as the base game, wtf are they doing.
>>This DLC will take more time to develop than DS2
So it wont be shit like Ds2,GREAT
