Shadow of the Erdtree is worth the wait. Bandai Namco sent me a review copy a few days early, so I took full advantage of the opportunity. Here are my thoughts after degenerately playing for 50 hours.

This video will not include any major spoilers whatsoever. I only show small segments of various regions that can be accessed through the starting area.

  1. this feels like a dream man. having played previous fromsoft dlcs and knowing you too have played them, and hearing you say this feels unreal
    I'm just finishing up on my character I made for the dlc and I'm going to cap my level at 125 because I want to face a damn good challenge, and man does this sound like it's gonna be a pain in the ass

  2. Pleeease, tell me Mesmer burned Eternal Cities with Giants flame, and Black Knifes wanted their revenge. And that’s why the Night took place. (And I Hope to find clues to my crazy theory that Radagon is a Mimic Tear made to become Elden Lord of Nox)

  3. FS is one of the rare studios that understands the benefits of under-promising and then over-delivering, as well as having the confidence to develope the game and release it when its truly ready. FS with Miyazaki in control is a dream come true for those who love their design philosophy.

  4. And that's why I don't like the term "DLC" for what are supposed to be expansions. To me DLC is something like skins or a single mission not what in some cases would be a full fledged game.

  5. @AgtJake, is it true that the final boss has massive lore implications of the original Darksouls and gives undeniable proof that Half Breed Priscilla is indeed the love child of Seeth the Scaless, but not Gwynevere, but Gwyndolin? I’d like to hear your lore implications upon this theory please.

  6. 7:10 By the way, that file size isn't accurate. That file size is installing everything included in the hub app, which includes Modern Warfare II, Modern Warfare III, Warzone and all relevant DLC. The reason they did it like this is so that you don't have to waste disc space if you have multiple CoD games, since they share a lot of assets. For example, MWIII will have a larger install size if you don't already have MWII installed, and vice versa. Or at least that's how I understand It, I don't actually own any of these games.
