Seems like there aren't a lot of typical Elden Ring dungeons, just overworld stuff and then bigger dungeons for the more important bosses. Performance is really bad so far.

Died to the Parade Lion while it was at 1HP, Freja secured the kill just before I timed out, hell yeah, I'll take it.

Im kinda "upset" that it took this long for dlc simply because I played the game a ton when it came out, dead all the endings or whatever, farmed the chicken (we all know the chicken) and I tried picking it up the other day again and uh... I dunno. I'd have to start a totally new game at this point, but also, fuck that. I feel like dlc ~6 months after release was about the sweet spot. It's just been way too long, imo. I really enjoyed the game but it's not a game to be played into the ground and then picked back up two years later

..... I'll probably still get the dlc....

I just started Elden Ring like a month ago and just can't get into it. I feel like its lacking the magic of BB and DS. I specifically waited because I wanted to upgrade my pc and then wait for the dlc and now i'm glad I did cuz pirating it saved me money.

It is sadness

I don't regret buying it, but the experience is extremely hollow compared to DS 1. Just further proof that absolutely nothing in the world is safe from the enshittification of Capitalism.

Nah. Elden Ring is actually just as good as Dark Souls and I'm saying this as some who is otherwise the biggest hater around. I haven't played Bloodborne because I'm not going to buy a PS4 for a single fucking game, but Elden Ring is easily up there with the best Fromsoftware has ever made. It's actually a worthy followup to Dark Souls 1, unlike either of the sequels.

Also just going "enshittification" and "captialism" without actually looking at the thing itself is fucking stupid.

I looked at the thing itself, nerd

Try some more, it's just as good as BB and DS. Just use the tools the game gives you and if you don't like a dungeon, don't do it.

Don't pretend you don't know about the chicken
