ELDEN RING: Shadow of the Erdtree receives criticism for being too difficult
The title debuted in Steam with very positive reviews, as it was one of the most anticipated releases of the year and convinced many fans with its high quality. However, reviews of it now are mixed, as some players frustrated with the difficulty decided to give it a thumbs down.
Many believe that the challenge level of certain bosses is too high and they feel that both their experience and their progress in the base game are of little use. For this reason, they believe that the DLC is not fun and, therefore, not worth investing in.
“This DLC is too difficult and simply not fun. The bosses all have ridiculously high health reserves, there are barely any openings, and a ton of frustrating and unrewarding mechanics. And if you fix that, it’s still not fun.
“If you can’t beat Malenia without summons or an OP build in 10-15 tries, I recommend that you don’t buy her. If you can do that, only buy it if you really, really, really, really enjoy FromSoftware titles,” said one fan.
This type of reviews has generated controversy among the community and lovers of the genre. Some fans think that the challenge is what makes the DLC and other games from the studio attractive, so there is no point in complaining about it.
