It's basically a standalone expansion in the vien of Infomous Girst light or Uncharted Lost legacy. It should be allowed for nomination imo.

I'm getting filtered on the first dungeon.

Still haven't played it, been busy with work. But I have the entire weekend and Monday off, so this is perfect timing for me! My friends who are already playing all say the same thing; they're getting their asses handed to them by a lot of mobs, not to mention bosses. Summoning no longer feels like a "cheat" for many who refused to use them before.

Not gonna lie. Very easy so far for me. I am not very far though. Considered using the gold summon for the first main boss I faced, but decided against it. Beat it quickly with my rune arc build.

What Level are you and how many scadutree fragments did ya scrap together for the first dungeon/boss. I got 3, I don't feel underpowered nor does anything feel overpowered but more so that everything has so many different attack patterns without interruption, feels like all that can be done is doge roll, roll, roll and roll again trying not to get clipped while taking the odd shot myself. Too early to say but feels like cheap ass Darksouls 2. I hope I'm wrong and I can get into some combat flow.  

If your on ps4 pro it's gonna much harder with the crappy framerates and input delays.

Not really feel any input delay but sure I've not tried it on PS5 so I guess I wouldn't feel it but as long as it's not frame pacing like in Sekiro I don't care much, doesn'teffect me unless it stutters plus my TV has some wicked cool Ai smoothing thing for gaming. 30fps feels like 60. No, it's the amount enemies attack, Like there's one dude early on the duel weilds in a tight area and spams this insane combo in a tight space and all you can do is dodge and iframe through the attacks. If he clips you there's fuck all you can do to get away from him and he has such reach that dodge rolling away isn't an option, you have to dodge in and make sure you're dodging through the attacks. It feels a bit too much, like a mini boss around every corner in Darksouls 2. 

Not sure but having played sikero at  60fps it made it much easier. I player elden ps4 pro version on ps5 where it was locked 60fps. I hear this dlc tank sto 40fps on ps5 often.
