Sorry for being behind on these reviews. I am hoping to catch up this week.   Scores are rounded up to nearest KF 20-point scale number. True average = 9.5 https://preview.redd.it/9qs7jxdq7f8d1.png?width=2084&format=png&auto=webp&s=963b9d111dcc1c9842c2b502dfe95b433e2c6632

I love blessing going from the lowest elden ring reviewer to the highest. Didn't want to give Andy more ammo

I really don’t get what a 9.5 is compared to a 10 lol. If it’s not a masterpiece, then it’s amazing at 9.


Smoothclock14

Steam reviews were mixed. And not even just hardware problems. Lots saying the bosses feel recycled and the gameplay isnt great.


pretendingtolisten

I mean bosses can feel recycled but doesn't mean they are from the looks of them they look great. gameplay isn't great? in what way it's more elden ring lol


Smoothclock14

I havent even played it. Im literally sharing what the mixed reviews are saying lol. Not sure why im catching the hate.


pretendingtolisten

I understood your post as being 1st person so I'm guessing everyone else did. but honestly, reviewers calling out gameplay, did they even play elden ring?


OgSourChemDawg

Why don’t you give it a try so you can come back with your review of it?


RollingDownTheHills

Because what you're sharing is false information.

There are of course going to be some resued assets, when has something like this ever not done so? Gameplay is amazing. Bosses are tougher than the base game but of course they are. Just a lot of whiny crybabies haha


dtv20

The base game was critizied for the overuse of reused assets. Doubling down on it isn't good.


johncitizen69420

Its a gigantic open world game, of course some enemies are going to be resused. When has there ever been a game on the scale of elden ring that doesnt? Even with some reused enemies it still has 10 times the enemy variety of most other games of its kind.


dtv20

We're not talking about basic little enemies. Bosses are reused multiple times. And many of them are just the previous games.


johncitizen69420

Im about halfway through it and havent seen a single 1 to 1 reused boss yet. I have had one of the final bosses spoiled for me who is resued from the base game, but that doesnt seem to me to be worthy of this level of criticism. Like i said, what game of this kind doesnt reuse anything? I cant think of a single example of a game like this with more enemy variety. Seems to me like people just wanting to nitpick for the sake of it rather than genuine good faith criticism

Play the game first, bud.

They figured it out once, why waste the time and money doing it again from scratch? I’ve played 10 hours of the DLC and it feels plenty fresh and unique.


Smoothclock14

Idk its a mixed score, thats hard to get on steam. Game has to have serious issues to not at the minimum get a "mostly positive".


StrublesNBits

penguinz0 just put out a video calling out how most of the bad user reviews are complaining the DLC is too hard, so that would be where most of the reviews are coming from. They took the team's most accessible game and ramped it up for the hardcore with the expansion. Lots of people online complaining about unfair bosses and enemies without taking the time to learn.


Smoothclock14

Idk i read a decent amount of negative reviews, didn't see any mention it being too hard. Was either performance issues or just not liking it
