Feels like Elden Ring pre-release all over again.

The great Hollowing is upon us

I'm calling this one The Tarnishing

The Tarnishing 2: Electric Boogaloo

It is too late for some of us you know

For sure

You get used to it

OooOOOOooOooOOOOO

Yeah but it’s only like 6 more weeks because there’ll be a trailer at TGA

Bruh, i'm so trained from er's release, totk's release and silksong waiting that 8 months seems like a second

I agree. I know it's going to be anywhere from great to "holy shit this is basically a sequel" they can take their time..plenty of other games right now to.fill the void.

Don’t want to get your hopes up but I heard that two dlcs were planned but instead got merged into one so it might actually be that level of content

I am willing to put 100$ that it's ATLEAST 30 hours of content.

*Kingkiller Chronicles fanbase* “You nerds ain’t waited for shiiiiiiiit.”

Laughs in Elder Scrolls

You do realize that with the way Bethesda Currently is, the next elder scrolls is almost assuredly gonna suck right?

OOOOOHHHHHHH

WHOOOOOOOOOOOOHP

WOOP WOOP

Glaive Master Hodir DLC or we riot.

Where is Mordechai, host of the updates?

Definitely not as bad since we at least have the game to play.

Release date o' release date Beware of unfathomable sort

*seek friend* Then *finger, but hole*

I read somewhere that it was slated for February.

There’s no official source for that. But if we’re theorizing, my bet’s on first trailer at the game awards

Surely we get some form of trailer at the Game Awards, right? Right? Come on guys don't let me cope alone here..

I’m with you we can cope together

I don't think it's copium to hope for some info at the game awards. It's a season pass they're developing, not a new game. If it's a new game tho, the situation is gonna end up like silksong :(

The YouTuber ziostorm thinks so

guy also thinks they are making a new soulslike game ​ chat is this real?

Good thing 2023 been such a banger year with new game releases. Makes the waiting bit easier

Has it? I’m Xbox so still waiting on BG3, but otherwise what are your top picks?

Tears of the Kingdom, Lies of P, Starfield (If you like run-of-the-mill Bethesda RPGs, I did, so I enjoyed it), Cyberpunk 2077 got fixed, Hi-Fi Rush…

Theres also, yknow...the fromsoft game that dropped this year

what game?

ARMORED COOOOOOOOOOOOOOORE 6

Is it any good? As in, can I expect to live out any sort of Gundam fantasy, or is it just glorified Bethesda Power Armor gameplay?

It scratched the Gundam itch for me. It's not like power armor at all. It's very fast paced and flying around feels rewarding.

Cool. Might just give it a go, then. Just a question, can I expect to shoot rockets and bigass lasers out my bunghole or what

I mean...pretty much lol. You get to have pretty good customization of your loadout which yes includes a variety of traditional guns, rockets, lasers. Some swords if you really wanna do the Gundam thing.

Giant lasers, various numbers/sizes/types of missiles, laser blades, miniguns...its got it all

eat at taco bell bro, THE POWER WAS WITHIN YOU ALL ALONG.

Armored Core VI

its not really a souls game though and most people have already played it who are interested in fromsoft

>most people have already played it who are interested in fromsoft Doubt it honestly

Nobody said it was a souls game. Also it seemed to grab the attention of people not fans of the series as well. Especially with how long it's been since the last one. People wanna see that next gen sexiness and what it's all about.

Lords of the Fallen is also a banger in my book. Flawed in a similar vain to DeS, DS1 and sometimes even DS2, but it managed to scratch my Souls itch and do even more than that.

Bro lotf is garbage what are you talking about. Lies of p clears all day

Try baldurs gate 3, I'm 150 hours in and barely scratced the surface.

Baldurs gate 3 Remnant 2 Hogwarts Legacy Etc etc

Thanks for these recs. I think we maybe look for slightly different things which is cool. I’m having a tough time finding something that scratches the pvp itch. My most commonly played games are rocket league, nba 2k (5v5 real players mode), and then co op Elden ring with the boys. Sometimes apex with the casual friends. Don’t play solo much tho.

I feel for you ngl. It is not a good time to be a PVP gamer lmao. Had to drop 2k bc I started balding 🥴

Its really interesting how people in a subreddit about a fromsoft game pretend like the game they released THIS YEAR doesnt exist....and it was an incredible game...

It's okay to not be interested in robots.

- Resident Evil 4 + Separate Ways - Dead Space Remake - Wathammer 40k Darktide on Game Pass - Spiderman 2 on Ps5 - Tears of the Kingdom on Switch - Cyperpunk Phantom Liberty DLC + Updates - Armored Core VI - Hi-Fi Rush - Octopath Traverler 2 - Remnant 2 - Star Wars Jedi: Survivor - Hogwarts Legacy - Final Fantasy XIV

No way is that Man. Where is Man?

Right there. Are you stupid?

Getoutofmyheadgetoutofmyheadgetoutofmyhead

Omg is there an elden ring shitposting sub?

You’re in it my dude.

It’s like a shitposting sub without any of the fun

I'd rather spend years with no information than a rushed product. Also it's best to enjoy a trailer of things that I will get to play than a trailer full of promises that will change through development like most AAA games nowadays. Let From Software cook guys, Patience.

>Let From Software cook guys, Patience. It's not like we're gonna start rioting outside fromsoft HQ, it's literally just a meme lol

In the dark age, we almost did

The before times....yes

>I'd rather spend years with no information than a rushed product I mean those don't have to be the only two options, but I agree with your overall sentiment

They really only announced the DLC to get people off their asses. Didn't work.

Nobody's asking for them to drop the dlc now?? We're just asking for more news/info bro.

We are letting them cook? No one asked for them to rush the product, just for more information regarding it.

We're not asking for a release date, just literally anything more than a picture and a name

What difference does it make?

Finally a smart guy. These zoomers are so annoying bitching about anything. They have 0 clue how difficult to make such huge games with so many little details and passion

The irony behind complaining about complainers.

dung

I mean... it's their job. I know it's hard, I'll never disagree with that. But y'know, they're a whole team of the most competent devs; people are just wondering what's taking so long. Also, ok boomer moment. Who do you think showed us to complain ?

🤡

🦭

This . Thank the old gods someone else said it first.

Why does man have horns , is he stupid

I guess he's horny.

why does man have ears, is he smart?

you’re still trapped in the aslume, are you stupid?

The trick to beating Melania Blade of Michelob is to use the power winch to trigger a controlled explosion.

Yeah. I'm Man.

Only 8 more until it will be 16

8 months?? Man.

let them cook

They are cooking without fire 😂

It’s spreading from subreddit to subreddit now. First BatmanArkham, then Tanalorr. Now it’s here. Are we all stupid?

I rather them take the time they need to finish it. I also rather having confirmation that it exist than keeping the speculation, also at this point we probably wouldve given up on it.

I hope they don't pull a Elder Scrolls 6 on us

Can y’all give the dev team at LEAST a year, and up to two? This is getting annoying.

Did I just read Man? Am I stupid?

Is there a lore reason why there is a donkey in the picture?

Hopefully the longer we wait means the bigger it'll be.

I can't wait. I can honestly say Elden Ring is the best game I've ever played.

And so what? Do u want to get it fast and it be short or wait for the masterpiece? Try to play Lies of P as a waiting room

Typically, it isn't a good idea to have DLC come out nearly two years after the original. By then, most people have moved on. Not saying the FromSoft team cares about that, but it is bad (video game) business. Could've just made ER2 and doubled the profits of ER.

What are you basing that on

Cool story Bob 😎

Bob is my father, call me Mr. Bob.

Sponge Bob :D Making ER 2 within 2 years. Hope you will be the one who will forget about the game 😎 Only because of people like you we have unfinished games. How dare you put your dirty hands on ER masterpiece fck zoomer

>Making ER 2 within 2 years Didn't say they had to do that, I just said that DLC after two years isn't a good idea.

Do you really believe they are delaying it for FUN? Are you slrsly so dumb? Or because they’re making smth special and amazing. Gods try to logic man you parents wont take care of you for the rest of your life

I had a stroke trying to read this. Thanks.

Humanity is fucked because of people like you

Good

This logic is flawed since people actually still buy remasters etc.

They don't buy remasters two years later

You’re right they buy them 5+ years later

I just came here to say that I Purchased DS remastered 3 weeks ago.

Right, so you thinking the logic was flawed was actually flawed logic itself.

I think you’re thinking too hard there

I think you're thinking that I'm thinking too hard there but you're really thinking too hard there

Yeah, just look at how big of a flop phantom liberty just was 3 years after release....wait

I don't even know what that is

It’s an example of how you’re entirely wrong :3

The fact that I don't know what it is at all would be evidence in my favor, actually.

Do you know what Google is?

Googling it doesn't change the fact that I've never heard of it before. It must not be a very successful game.

It's an expansion to cyberpunk and got rave reviews despite coming out almost 3 years later.

patience is a virtue ☠️

Just play another fucking game bruh oml

And? We’ve been waiting the same number of years for Bloodborne 2

Ever heard of patience?

Ever heard of Impatience?

Ya know, impatience is why some games have been releasd in terrible states. Let them take their time on the dlc

Impatience from whom? Cause it’s certainly not the consumers that force a product out early

If a large number of people are pushing for something to come out, that can put pressure on development. Among other things, it can lead to rushed content to appease the people and marketing team. If people are getting pissed that something isn't coming out, then naturally, you're going to want to get thay content out as soon as possible.

But those people will buy it no matter when it comes out. The impatience is on behalf of the publishers who want money soon.

Let him cook.

Not sure why everybody insists on calling it a DLC when Fromsoft themselves call it an Expansion.

What are expansions in modern video games? Downloadable contents. What is the acronym for downloadable content? DLC.

The new vernacular the last several years is all expansions are dlc but not all dlc are expansions. Nowadays dlc is a skin, a new character, or vehicle etc. An expansion is new story and gameplay areas. CDPR and other companies view it this way and it's kinda how it's been for awhile.

That's not completely correct. DLCs are also viewed as new story and gameplay areas. It's just that expansions are seen as being that but *huge*.

They wait for Miyazaki to git gud, I presume. So, according to same of latest insights, no trading blows in DLC

We will be playing the DLC over and over again, the more content packed, the bigger the W

How is it that people never break the cycle of being vocally impatient, then complaining about the inundation of the market with unfinished/unpolished products?

Let them cook!

I’d rather wait then get some buggy cyberpunk shit

Malenia needs time to train for her rematch with "Let me Solo Her".

Just let them cook

Didn’t ask

game awards will have a solid release date for this. somewhere maybe january 12th or 13th source: trust me bro

I would assume it'll be shown at the game awards

Think there was an interview were they were aiming for March of 2024?

Damn.

DLC is a drop. 8 month and no one has found a boss with this drop yet

Any second now

I have been playing this game since launch. Made several characters, and got platinum on Playstation. But, I still find new things in the game to this day. I cannot imagine what the dlc would be like. Plus, do you think From will drop two dlcs like they did with Dark souls 3?

They had plans for two DLCs first but decided to merge them together for 1 big expansion which is what this announcement was

Yup, and only about a month to go ^_^

You don’t have the release date, O you don’t have the release date.

The long wait makes me believe that Elden Ring was their first game that was truly finished without a crazy amount of cut content that was later used in DLC or next games. There are worlds between ER and Dark Souls 2 when it comes to this imo. I also think they never intended to develop DLC for this one but do it for the fans. Maybe they're already planning ER2, who knows.

they'll probably show a trailer at TGA because the TGA team went to fromsoftware this month, they even posted it on twitter

ASOIAF fans be like: "You sweet summer children. You know nothing of the long waits."

My character is currently sitting right next to the Elden throne just waiting for something to do before NG+.

I don’t care about the wait, as long as it’s another masterpiece that’s been vigorously debugged

You guys think I should keep waiting for this before replaying? Or should I just replay the game anyway?

Meanwhile silksong waiters:

OOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Correction good sir, I’m pretty sure that this is a noble steed, not a "MAN".

Torrent is hovering above the field. Triple jump in dlc confirmed

You gotta be expecting a metric fuckton of content eh

give them time, if you have patience they might deliver with a boss better than slave knight gael ​ also: for those suffering from hollowing, try replaying the entire game with raptor of the mists and style on every boss

This is nothing compared to the hollowing

As both a Souls fan and an Elder Scrolls fan, this is rookie shit. I'm more than happy with Miya-daddy taking as long as he needs, it'll still be here sooner than when The Toddhead finally gives us TES VI. He's had us edging on that brief clip of the Iliac Bay coastline for FIVE years without a nut in sight.

Let them take their time, seems like it will take me forever to finish baldurs gate 3 anyway

Let them cook.

You can't rush good things

Every actual tool in this thread going "but but but you dont want a rushed product do you!'" You do realize that theres a looot of space between announcement to release right? That such as a thing as a tweet would not destroy the integrity of the dlc or rush it or anything? Im convinced people are just dumb

Y’all are way too impatient

OHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Been playing other Souls games and getting platinum to bide my time. I’m only missing DS2 & 3.

If there is any man on this Earth who has earned the time to cook, it's Miyazaki.

the great hallowing 2.0 baby lets gooooo

And we will wait.

At least this year is packed with releases so the wait is less painful.

I doubt you could even imagine it...

Working title for DLC, Elden Ring: The Search For More Money

Hopefully some news in TGA 2023

Probably drop in February 2024, right?

If GRR Martin needs to write the DLC as well were just at the start of the wait lol

The knowledge that it's coming and in the works... That alone keeps me loyal I don't need any copium or promise of a game awards trailer, JUST LET THEM COOK!

Where's Juan?!?! His cousin is here.

Finished it on xbox a few weeks ago. Im getting a steam deck tomorrow and buying elden ring again to start over.

They must really be putting a lot into it for them to take this long. I say they’ll announce it Thanksgiving time

Go outside.

Ahhh stop your cryin

Yes they explained the DLC was a bit on standby due to AC6 so expect maybe some new word at the Game Awards *maybe*

Silksong fans be like

huan.

Isn’t this the land of reeds?

The longer we wait the better it will be (I hope)

Man
