Elden ring shadow of the erd tree burnout?
Elden ring shadow of the erd tree burnout?
Unfortunately I had to do a completely new run of elden ring to make it to the dlc and had already put in about 100 hours.
Now that I'm in the dlc I'm about halfway through it and starting to get burnt out.
I can tell it's really good. I think I'm just burnt out on Elden ring because it's all I've been playing lately in an attempt to unlock the dlc
Tldr I wish I would have had my Xbox and my old character to jump straight into the dlc instead of starting over on ps5 and playing through nearly the entire base hame.
No reason not to just take a break? I replayed the game over a month or so with a friend of mine mostly in coop, just to have a fresh character after respeccing my original one to beat melania shortly after release, but I'm pretty sure if I did the DLC and the Main Game closer together I'd get burned out too. And I definitely wouldn't want to get burned out for a game like this, considering it's presumably going to be a pretty long time until we get another game by Fromsoft.
Yeah that's basically it. Most people had characters that they had already beaten rhe game with and could hop straight into the dlc.
I played the game all the way up until malenia just to acsess the dlc, and now I'm starting to feel burnt out in the middle of the dlc.
I think you're right. Take a break play some other games and then come back and finish the second half of the dlc
I had this exact same issue. For me, my solution was to go Bloodfiend's Arm and not make every boss a struggle session, and work pretty quickly towards ending it. I'll go much slower and deeper the next time I play it on NG+, probably next year.
Yeah it sucks because fromsoft is my favorite developer after Nintendo. I want to enjoy this and take it all in, but I've just had too much elden ring too fast and I'm ready to move on.
I honestly think I would have preferred a smaller more contained DLC Ala the ringed city or the old hunters.
I'm still going to give this an 8.5 I just don't think it reaches the heights of those two.

Actually pretty strong disagreement here, larger expansions like Far Harbor, Shadow of the Erdtree, and Phantom Liberty can usually better explore new ideas and expand on the base game in a meaningful way IMO.
I'm having a real hard time completing any fromsoft games in general. I usually get to 90% point and then just can't bring myself to actually finish it
I think that's understandable since that is just a lot of video game. You could try taking a break and playing it later. If you are worried about breaking the continuity, I think you could make a new character, farm levels in the mohgwyn dynasty area and then just beat Radahn and Mohg to enter the DLC then go from there.
