Elden Ring DLC ​​is under fire in terms of performance and difficulty

Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree is generally well received, but many players have negative opinions regarding performance and, believe it or not, difficulty.

As a result, user ratings have increased steam Currently ‘Broken’ after over 23,000 reviews. Players mainly complain about the stuttering performance of the game.

Then there’s another issue that many players seem to be concerned about: Shadow of the Erdtree is extremely difficult. Players complain about bosses that are too aggressive and leave no room for healing. “The design of enemies and bosses is not fun,” one wrote. “Every boss has to be a Malenia, and every boss has to deal a lot of damage and have a lot of health,” complains another.
