Here is what happened.

I played the base game for 1700 hours >
Morning of the DLC release day arrived >
I couldn't help myself but creating another character and grinding it >
In, around, 10-11 hours, I've cleared all bosses in Limgrave, Liurnia, Caelid and Altus >
DLC arrived I finished it in around 30-40 hours.

My point is, if I was an unexperienced player and the DLC was just another whole game, I would have finish it in around 100 hours. Means it's almost as big as the main game. And they sell it for 2/3 of the base game's price.

I am satisfied as hell. Looks like after the "what a good game looks like" trauma Elden Ring gave me, now I have "what a good DLC looks like" trauma. I will not be able to enjoy any other game ever again.

It's not perfect, but I'd rather give this 60 dollars instead of giving brainrot casual games 60-80 dollars. Or life services.

This is the best game with the best DLC, guys. Don't miss it.

You'll spend some difficult time, it will be challenging. Time will not pass so fast. But, be assured, you'll be satisfied. Long and hard, wouldst thou enjoy this beautiful DLC!

Edit: I also regret not buying premium edition. This DLC has such good OSTs, even better than the base game.
