What do you all think about the price for Elden Rings dlc?
For me in Canada it’s $53.49 +tx so around $61 total.
That’s the cost of a new game, not a dlc.
Given the track record of the company I’m sure the dlc will be amazing, but I’m very curious as to the length of it as well.
I’ve happily paid $70 CAD for games significantly shorter and smaller in scope than Shadow of the Erdtree looks. Plus I’m wanting to jump back into Elden Ring anyways and I more than felt like I got my money’s worth the first couple of times. So $56.16 CAD (what my receipt says it cost me) is pretty much fine for that.
This might be a weird take, but I don’t really care whether I’m paying for a new game, a DLC, a microtransaction, or even a gacha pull. If it seems like it’s somehow worthwhile, whether that’s by fun or hours played or novelty or whatever, I don’t really worry that much about what form it takes. This usually means I just buy new games (how often is a microtransaction at all reasonable to pay for?) but I don’t really worry about DLC pricing if it looks good.
According to interviews it’s supposed to be bigger than Limgrave and have it’s own upgrade system in addition to the normal rune level. Something similar to Sekiro. At least 10 new bosses. Multiple new weapon categories. If that’s all true, it’s basically a standalone game built into Elden Ring. I’ve bought smaller games for about the same or even more.
I am 100% certain it will be worth it. FROM have never half-assed a game nor expansion, Elden Ring least of all.

Ninja Blade would like a word with you, along with every shovelware game they made that wasn’t armored core. It is well known at this point FROM were in financial trouble before demon souls.
There’s also like a premium version that costs even more and comes with some extra stuff. Dlc got dlc now.
Fromsoft are obviously squeezing every penny they can whilst they are able to. I’ll likely just wait and get a more reasonably priced version. 2024 is stacked with amazing looking games.
It sucks but unfortunately I will still pay that price

I thought $40 Canadian for phantom liberty was a lot but, after playing it, it was worth the price. Erdtree could very well give a similar experience but I’m going to wait for some reviews before I consider getting it.
not sure about CA but check greenmangaming or fanatical
Depends, what did you think about the base game? For myself, I wouldn’t play it even if it was free. I platinumed Elden Ring and by the end of it, I was so fatigued from the FromSoft formula that the next and last game I’ll play from them will be the Bloodborne remake.
I bought Helldivers 2 for less than the ER DLC. And I’m having way more fun.
if you can’t afford it pirate it, it is pretty cut and dry. they donmt need your money spesifically
