Very mid, more similar to other boss rush games than souls-like or even GoW games. There's like 3 enemy types and each level consists of your spawn point, a linear area with 2-3 branching areas that ultimately convene into one boss and then repeat endlessly. Was fun at first but got repetitive pretty quickly.

People are mad that their head canon was wrong.

The DLC is amazing. I'm happy that FromSoftware balanced it so you have to explore the DLC in order for your high-level character to make progression. The DLC can pretty much be called Elden Ring 2.

I have played literally every single Soulsborne DLC at release. This is by far the best in my opinion.

I have two PCs, both are unable to run the game adequately. PC #1 (7800xt, 5800x3d) PC #2 (6600xt. 13400). The CPU in both machines are not being properly utilized and the GPU is probably running at approx 30-50% utilization maxed. Even ignoring all the glaring issues, like making fast travel a huge pain in the ass and monetizing the means the fast travel amongst many more things, no one should waste their money on this until Capcom fixes it. The max framerate I can achieve, no matter the graphics setting is like 40 fps maybe, even in the open world.
****EDIT after 04/18 Patch****
Still getting terrible performance and getting more full system crashes that require a hard reboot. Cannot make anymore progress in my main quest, game crashes upon loading save and I don't want to lose progress by loading at an inn.

Next gen patch has crashed game upon loading a save using DX12, forced to use DX11 on a 12700k and RTX 3070. Looked great for the five minutes I was able to play it. Seems equally broken on weaker software and running into constant crashes during gameplay.

Pretty broken. Even without mods, getting constant crashes and game has very odd optimization.

To be clear my specs are R5 3600 and RTX 2070 Super with 32 gb of Ram.

Wow this game isn't very diverse. Yikes

Wait to purchase the game until bugs get ironed out. The game has potential to be probably the best souls-like out there, but buggy hitboxes, inventory wipes, and graphical issues really hampered my experience.

I bought this game back when it was early access and this has to be the one product that has convinced me to not pay for early access ever again. Now that the full game is released, you'd think they would have fixed the bugs that they have had for about 3+ years now. Nope. I'd argue that the bugs are worse with the actual release than it was when it was in beta. My PC has a GTX 1070 paired with a 7700 HQ and this game is so unoptimized that I frequently see dips down in the 20-40 fps, no matter the graphics settings.

The story seems to be kinda interesting but it's just such so jarring to have to play through this that it loses all interest I would have had. Maybe wait another 3 years and this game might be worth $15.

Oh my god Capcom why. Picked it up on sale for $8 but it's just bad. Controls feel pretty clunk for KB+M and controller settings are not much better.

Pretty bad port. ♥♥♥♥♥♥ gameplay. Just couldn't get into it and the technical problems just made things not worth trying.
