The title will also feature new armor, weapons and customization features for Torrent’s appearance. The additional content in the title will also be available on other platforms.

...but what can they even include? And why?
I mean more weapons and armor is always good, but adding it after game was finished and released feels weird
And it can't be nintendo licensed weapons like master sword, because they will be on the others platforms too

but what can they even include? And why?

Hopefully good shit from prior games they just fucking forgot to add (it's possible, considering we're getting a spiritual successor to the Lucatiel set)

Giant Door Shield

Santier's Spear

Valorheart

Dragonslayer Swordspear

Greatsword of Artorias

Vanquisher's Seal

GIVE ME MORE DEX FAITH WEAPONS PLEASE

but what can they even include? And why?

wait until nightreign for the answer.

they're gonna pad out the erdtree "weapon types" for people that didn't get erdtree. The horse will get white red and black versions to match the biomes of the game.

unironic paid horse armor DLC

I know we meme a lot but FS might unironically be going down the shitter. Outside pressure from Sony or Kudokawa? Who knows.

So... 25fps tops, yeah?

fromsoft is selling ingame gear as dlc now

Its over

Yes I'm sure it was Sony who pressured them to give the Switch version free content.

Loved them, they were shit, but at least you could start with different weapon statuses
If anything, I wish bloodborne had something like that with arcane type and beast claws

Horse pussy customization.

now

fuck off secondary

Sony became the largest shareholder of From's parent company last year chuddy
Black Armor edition just started you with this equipment, you could still find it throughout the game, the dude in Drangleic Castle sells most of it. It wasn't exclusive to pre-order.

They've shown a modified Lucatiel set with the Mirrah's GS using some weird matador ash of war thing, so there's clearly going to be a batch of new weapons, ashes and possibly spells as well.
Maybe they'll finally fix Throwing Knives with this since they're not only the only weapon category with ONE weapon, but they're utter fucking garbage as well.
Hell we might even get the bone fists.

I'm well aware, now actually read the post you're replying to and try again.

That is literally just the Hollowslayer Greatsword.

switch never got das2

add Lucatel set for switch 2 release

...which is literally the Mirrah GS from DS2, retard

but why?
it's like they're trying to make elden ring a live service game, but there's no content

Free money, ER is FROM's single biggest hit by a long shot.
A Switch 2 port is literally just even more money on top of the pile, throw in a little extra for everyone else to celebrate and you get some gather some good will as well, nobody's gonna say no to more items and everyone was bitching about Torrent's looks.

Fromsoft probably capitulated. They bought Elden Ring back from Bamco but Bamco probably has a lot of privileges and influence contractually for ER and Nightreign The way I see it, Nightreign is just to fulfill their contractual obligations and escape Bamco and Bamco is like "fine, do that, we'll use the horse armor clause in section 3B and start milking Elden Ring losers"

switch port makes sense
it's just strange to add more weapons at this stage of the game's lifespan

Not so strange when you consider how active the community still is and how successful the game is.
And again, nobody is gonna say no to more stuff, AC6 also got a stray DLC with a couple more parts a year or so after release, this is nothing new for FROM.

It's so people who already own Elden ring have a reason to buy it for the switch 2

I wish Torrent wasn't such an afterthought that just disappears if you don't summon him. I guess the object permanence was more than fromsoft's shit engine could handle.

Why would you not just spend exponentially less money and get the weapons on the platform you already have?

it's worse than an after thought, it's a signature-japanese forced gimmick, that thing where they force you to do random shit for no reason at all. Mandatoryy Torrent and Melina sections ruined this game for me.

Ah yes, that distinctly Japanese thing where a game forces you to do random shit for no reason at all.

Hated the mandatory stealth mission in my favourite Japanese game Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

okay nintendo employee do your thing where you damage control your own post.

what did he mean by this

Pretty sure it's western game that invented horses that you can summon anytime you want

Ah yes, that distinctly Japanese thing where a game forces you to do random shit for no reason at all.

I smell another GOTY for From!!!!

With the MP elden ring and now switch game Fromsoft is finally dropping off. They had a really good run, and are worthy of the praise they get, but I think it's finally over.

make the game of the decade

immediately announce two absolute piece of shit spinoffs and then try to sell horse armor

grim

how well will this run on the switch 2?

Yes i feel like torrent and 90% of the open world and walking could have been removed with no consequences to the flow of the action.

I understand that "pacing" is the reason for it's existence, that some level of sensory deprivation is necessary to get properly invested in the world and setting (as you get bored you will imagine the game world is more vivid in a way that no pixels could ever reproduce) but it really doesn't do it for me when the gameplay is just killing stuff. Much like the setting being dead and hollow, the game feels the same way.

I agree entirely. So much bloat. I spent most of my first playthrough ignoring Melina, when I realized she was the level up lady I went from level 1 to fucking level 89.
