don't bother reading this if you don't care about Elden Ring lore because you would just be wasting your time

Elden Ring's first DLC will be released this month. I'm excited to play it.

But at the same time I feel it is gonna be the last one.

For me this is a bit regrettable. But not because I want a Marvel-like endless supply of content. It seems like the DLC is gonna be about the founding of the Erdtree era. But I am significantly more interested in whatever ends up happening with Godwyn. In the base game, his influence was extremely far reaching in breadth but not in depth. His posthumous existence implies serious ramifications but they are not addressed in the base game.

I am really interested in more background for Miquella and Marika but not at the cost of Godwyn.

Oh jesus, here's hoping it's at least an MMO then, so it won't be so barren. I almost posted my gripes list after the game dropped to the subreddit, but after a quick scroll I realized there was a non-zero chance I'd get stalkers if I did. The git gud mentality is so annoying and telling, like none of the games are especially hard! They're frustrating (mostly DS2) and some of the mechanics are outdated and have been dropped from more modern games for good reason (looking at you, soul loss), but their difficulty is so overrated.

Hard agree on the Legacy dungeons, I actually had fun in those before having to trudge through the repeated content and reused bosses (there are only like six uniques, right???) ad nauseam.
