I made it quite deep into the game (Farum Azula) before bouncing off.

I’ll need to consider whether I can endure the frustration to jump back in given it’s been so long.

June is so far 😟, looks like im gonna have time to play Dark Souls 3 before it then.
I'm actually glad. We got bunch of games on Feb and March is also going crazy stacked as well. In June release it gives me enough time to finish those games before going in to Elden Ring expansion which I will spend unhealthy amount of time on it.

I’m gonna be checking for preorders if they have some awesome collectors edition. I’ve purchased the base game 3 times. I’d imagine I buy the DLC twice. It might be worth a Bloodborne playthrough. Who knows what type of craziness this DLC is going to have. I’ll be filling out that PTO request the moment that date gets announced.

Is the expansion going have physical release?

This is all Reddit talk but apparently there’s some sorta GOTY package that has a CE. Unless I misread something and that’s what keeps going around. I’d imagine they’d bundle some complete edition for someone wanting to have the entire package. 🤞😴

Crazy to think this DLC will most likely be higher quality, larger (without being empty) and loads more fun than most new AAA games that took 3x as long to develop. Say what you want about Souls like games but From Soft is doing something right!

I’m a little skeptical about the June 21st release. Apparently that date is pulled from leaked GOTY edition releases of Elden Ring which include the DLC as a package. In the past, there has always been a few months gap between the DLC release and the GOTY edition that includes the DLC. The fact that this is trailer 1 means there’s probably very little chance we will see “Available Now” at the end of the trailer tomorrow but there may be a chance we see this come out in April. Either way gives me some time to play FF7 and Dragons Dogma 2.

Can’t wait to see what FS cooked up after 2 years! Elden Ring will always hold a special place in my game library. At a time when AAA games were all following the same scripted cinematic flow and /or boring empty open worlds, I found myself bored with most games. Sometimes wondering if I was just “growing out” of the hobby. Often times literally falling asleep while playing (Starfield did this to me most recently). I never enjoyed souls like games before but when I saw the scores and praise Elden Ring was getting, I couldn’t ignore it. I purchased a digital copy and got my ass handed to me for the next 5 hours. At first I regretted the purchase. Had I bought physical, I may have returned it but since it was digital, I kept trying. I completely sucked at the game… but then something just… clicked. It was still very challenging but there was something about it that was genuinely the most fun I’d had gaming since the PS2 era. Not to mention the open world felt like a place I wanted to explore.

No doubt the DLC will be awesome! Gotta wonder where they go from here now that they own the IP.
