Shadow of The Erdtree offers over 65 hours of content, over half of the size of the main game

[John Elden Ring]

Miyazaki is a liar. Shadow of the Erdtree is more than half the size of Elden Ring. It is a massive expansion that shatters expectations, and I've played 65 hours of it and am still discovering new places and items as of last night.

The map of Shadow of the Erdtree is better designed than the base Elden Ring. Its smaller size means various gorgeous and nightmarish areas interlock and loop within, over and under each other like a massive Zelda/Souls dungeon across a continent.

One boss in "Shadow of the Erdtree" took me 4 days to kill, longer than my previous FromSoft boss record of 3 days to kill Malenia and Isshin. It might be the hardest fight ever conceived. When I finally beat it, my body was literally trembling.

Hellblade 2 = 5 hours

Elden Ring DLC = 65 hours

Feels like I could spend the rest of my life just playing just BG3, Elden Ring, Zelda TotK and FFVII Rebirth. These last few years have been top heavy.

It's not 65. It will be around 30-40 hours for the average player. Which is still insanely good.

Walk backwards/dodge
Lunge/attack
Rinse and repeat

Yes 65 hours includes 4 days trying to beat one boss according to Gene.

That probably ate 12-15 hours.

they said Elden Ring was "easily 100 hours' and I cleared it and all if its major bosses in under 50. Second run took me 15 hours.

im guessing this DLC will take me about 20 hours.

most people are trash at fromsoftware games, if you know how to play their game, just cut the estimate 1/2 lol

cool

now fix the PC version and make it not trash please

Yeah, the the guy who reviewed it on Angry Joe Show said he was able to complete it in about 20, but his main was over level 200 it seems.
