miyazaki interview

https://www.eurogamer.net/elden-ring...expansion-ever

it’s their largest dlc ever, the surface area of the dlc is larger than all of limgrave

also states the dlc is geared around malenia-level difficulty

[Anoat]

RIP

[Tyrath]

That's not how I read it

Miyazaki specifically mentioned the infamous Malenia boss fight - an extremely tough, yet optional battle. "So players who look for that sort of challenge in our games will find a challenge on equal footing in the DLC as well," he said.

Sounds like there will be a Malenia level fight in the game, not that the whole DLC will be like that

[Mertron]

could be he’s referring to just a boss fight

but at the same time, having to clear mohgwyn palace/mohg probably puts it at that difficulty level anyway

Of course, I had to ask Miyazaki if Shadow of the Erdtree will once again include a poisoned swamp.

"In a word, yes," he said. "But this was actually a point of introspection for me after creating the base game. It was only after creating it that I realised I really like to create poisoned swamps. And this was a little place of introspection and reflection for me. So maybe, when players reach the poisoned swamp in the DLC, they will feel a little bit of this retrospection.

never change Miya

[Tyrath]

I saw multiple swamp areas in that trailer lol

[Mertron]

people saying one looks like a deathblight swamp which would be hilarious

[Anoat]

Dead after 2 seconds of exposure

Miquella’s gonna be pissed he was held hostage by some blood weirdo. Many deaths await.

Some more info from the Miyazaki interview:

-More than 10 new bosses (at least one as hard or harder than Malenia)
-8 new weapon types
-Land mass is about the size of Limgrave, doesn't specify verticality
-George R.R. Martin's initial lore is involved in the plot

Looking to be more than twice the size of previous FromSoft DLCs.

Watched part of Vaati's vid, this thing is a genuine expansion pack in scale.

[Xno Kappa]

Might as well put in my leave right now.

[Andalusian girls]

10+ bosses with more optional is fuckin nuts too, their best ever DLCs were The Ringed City and The Old Hunters and they had 9 COMBINED. thing is finna be massive

Tbf Elden ring really upped the number of bosses an insane amount due to the open world. Are those numbers confirmed to be unique bosses?

[Krandor]

Supposedly they are reusing a couple of the recurring bosses like tree spirit

[Anoat]

Dang I don’t think I want to jump in this one week before Dawntrail launches but I’m sure it will be fire
