Elden Ring's DLC expansion Shadow of the Erdtree is on its way, and hopefully it'll recapture the commanding, serene, and jaw-dropping “event game” status that Elden Ring enjoyed a year ago.
celebrated its first anniversary at the end of February, I found myself thinking about which memories from the game’s launch still lingered most in the year since. There were, of course, the obvious ones—getting my ass handed to me by the Tree Sentinel immediately after the tutorial, taking an elevator deep below Limgrave and being greeted by the gorgeously starry Siofra River, no one having any idea how to progress Kenneth Haight’s quest for weeks.
But there were also the moments that felt like personal adventuring feats. Like many friends, I quickly found that the first weeks I put intowere drastically different from anyone else’s. I’d stumbled onto entirely dissimilar dungeons and NPCs tucked within labyrinthine settings, developed a playstyle that matched the hybrid spell’n’slash combat flow I enjoyed most, and even found my struggles and triumphs with bosses vastly unique from the experiences that littered my Twitter feed.
There’s a case to be made that FromSoft would be playing to their strengths in taking a similar approach to “Shadow of the Erdtree.” In a story whose demigods form the backbone of the player’s understanding of The Lands Between, Miquella’s absence from the main game sticks out, one of the few genuinely unresolved stories in an otherwise neat narrative.
—seem to be exactly the kind of essential worldbuilding that made expansions like “The Old Hunters” so stellar.’s nature as the first fully open world Soulslike game makes this attempt at drawing 1:1 comparisons somewhat slippery.
