I Was Wrong.. 

Soul player: When playing the game: Fck this game suck After beating the game: It's the best game ever made

He finally got over his IGN game journalist arc

Editor is an absolute legend for bleeping out the name of the final boss, haven't had a chance to play it yet and took a risk watching this clip so I appreciate it!

0:37 bro said "no spoilers" while Asmongold is wearing fking Armor lmao

I love when it was revealed when we had to fight a super saiyan 3 so epic

The best and worst boss is clearly the camera.

The spoiler bleeping was legendary 👍

i like how chat is spamming Blood and Wine was also good

As someone who is "poor" and needs to save up money for a few months to buy games nowadays. The editor bleeping out the Name of the last boss was absolutly insane. I loved that! Ive been trying very hard to avoide any spoilers (hence why I wont look at any replies on this comment) and it hasnt been easy because 80% of my feed is Elden Ring (I watch Vadi, Bushy, Skumnut etc.). Thank you editor

That face turn was instant… has to be food coma from gagging on that shield

I don't know if he'll see this, but Mr. Editor? You're the G.O.A.T. not letting the clip hit us with spoilers. You're a real MVP.

Can’t believe Kai Cenat is a better gamer than Asmon 😞

My friend was so confused he beat messmer on 10 tries and was so dissapointed that he was not as strong as malenia like everyone said he was (he was using the fists weapons at + 0 with no armour role playing a monk

yeah bro the damage and health of the mobs is totally fine and actually completely balanced! Brother you didnt even play the bosses, you held the shield out and jitter clicked R1. Actually comical the amount of cases that people will say "Yeah the bosses aren't great" during their playthrough and then the microsecond that they beat the game they completely switch up and say "WOWW! BEST GAME EVER 10/10 EVERYTHING SO BALANCED AND FUN!!!" like bro get real.

I mean... seems about right. He figured out how much a shield helps you lol. He can just sit there and take the hits with little to no punishment.

Who would have thought that Kai would be a better souls player than asmon

Thumbs up for the editor for caring about the spoilers. XqC just straight up puts them in the thumbnail and title

The fact that Moghlester turns out to be Moghlested at the same time as DrDisrespect turns out to be DrDiddler is actually INSANE!!!!!!

It's like he's speaking against his will.

had to change into a cheese build to even get slight enjoyment out of it, calls it best dlc. payroll change my mind.

The DLC was just not for me. I might be to old for this at this point. The 12 Hit combos and then just when you get to attack and take a sliver of the Boss health is just insane for me. Or the fact that most won't even let you Summon as right off the bat, they will launch themselves right at you like a missile and even if you dodge that, they have another attack coming right at you and then another and another. I don't know. This whole 12 attack combo followed by another 2 or 4 hit combo is just not fun for me. I might just be too old. EDIT: There was also the fact that if you try to heal, most of the Bosses will immediately come right at you. There's no breathing space. I am left watching them perform Combo after Combo just for a tiny window of opportunity.

I appreciate the “flippin” to block out the spoiler. I’m having a real hard time avoiding spoiler content but so much want to share in the journey. This dlc is beyond amazing. Better than the Ringed City even.

it's a pity he will never finish the witcher 1-2-3 and the two DLS's. Just wonder what would his first impressions be like after completing

for those curious, its soldier of God, Rick the final boss

that sounds like a different guy from 2 days ago. 🤣

Game journalist of the year - Asmon on wheelchair build

I thought this video would have been for defending Dr Kid inspect, but alas just a clickbait

- >70% of areas are green/red/blue/yellow swamps - perfomance is trash beyond imagine - 100% of the time I had no fucking idea of where I am because of ingenius level of map design 'hey we put you in a fucking forest with 60 FOV in billion bushes, good luck", map design actually degrade in comparision to base game - bosses are trash and boring with a couple exeptions - clasic shitty quests when you didn't say hello to some random dude in full noon while drank some shit you got from 20 hours ago - you locked from content forever - 80% of the map are open areas filled with nothing Yea, dlc of the decade, mb generation, best of what humanity done in thousand years

o7 to all the banned Chatters we lost due to the powertrip.

for the people wanting Godwyn back : he got killed by maliketh's DESTINED DEATH. Its stated in the items lore that there is no coming back from that even if a god tried to bring them back, see it as the lord beerus hakai of Elden ring.

Glad to see Monster Hunter World getting the love it needs. Can't wait to see ya'll in the Wilds.

thing with Elden Ring games that doesnt work for most other games is that they are so awesome to watch other people play. You get to see movesets, learn from other peoples mistakes and just appreciate how much care goes into it.

Really don't agree, I enjoyed my first playthrough of the main game way more that this dlc. The open world is super front loaded where the farther you get the fewer dungeons and cool things there are. Some areas felt like they were only there to look pretty and have maybe 1 item here and there in it. There's way too many repeat bosses from the main game for a dlc that costs this much. The dungeons and castle were the best parts but dungeon bosses were a joke and the main bosses all felt like the exact same type of challenge, like they all wanted to be Malenia 2.0, even directly copying the types of moves she does. I miss the days of souls games where every area had a purpose and every boss tried to be challenging in a different way. I really wanted to like this dlc but I just don't.

It's not DLC, this is a long forgotten concept. A true Expansion.

The Old Hunters dlc for Bloodborne was better imo. It practically doubled the viable weapons in the game and made it possible to upgrade multiple weapons without NG+.

didnt he just shield cheese it??? lmao okay

Best bosses: Messmer Rellana Sword Master Yosh Romina Midra Worst bosses: Dancing Lion (visually polished though) Commander Gaius Promised Consort, Radahn (visually stunning though) Scadutree Avatar Golden Hippopotamus I would say that this DLC is a solid 7/10. There are severe scaling issues, bosses deal tremendous amounts of damage regardless of stats or armour, boss combos go on for way too long with basically no punish window, and enemy hitboxes are inconsistent. Basically, they made Sekiro bosses, but kept the player at the speed of Dark Souls. This game fundamentally runs on two sets of rules: what the player is allowed to do (basically nothing) and what the bosses are allowed to do (anything they want). I think the main issue is definitely the massive hitboxes. Against some bosses, I was outside of their range but still got hit by an invisible force, or in the case of the Golden Hippopotamus; teleporting into its mouth. Another issue was the constant double attacks from bosses that made dodging pointless. There was also the issue of the neverending combos that just kept going and going, and going... **tin oweyrs leiteyr** ...and going, and going, making basically every boss fight a stamina check. Compared to the base game (9/10), this is not as polished. It almost feels rushed and most of the main experience is definitely not fun. Still a good DLC, but not GOTY material, and definitely doesn't deserve all the praise it's getting from brain-dead Souls cultists.

Ah yes. The "this game is stupid and unfair and I hate it" sentiment while playing, and then the "this was a wonderfully fair and balanced experience" after finishing it. Every dark souls game ever.

Asmon just mastered content farming the entire range of viewer emotions and if you haven't seen this coming, you haven't been paying attention to what he does on a regular

personally i found it fucking awesome that *spoiler* was the last boss. Since in the base game he isn't at 100% but now you get to fight him in his prime

1:12 This Dragon Fight, Makes Wow look like Childs play. Seriously though... If Wow could deliver Raid fights that looked ANYTHING like this fight, My god how popular it would be... Still to this day... Now we have a never ending cartoon that continues to confuse and retcon.

personally, the PC performance issues and stutters were almost unbearable, which you don't see any streamers commenting about because they all have a 4090 or some shit that can brute force the terrible optimization.

Cyberpunk Phantom liberty please play phantom liberty those choices had me crying literally

Sometimes it be like that. You get tilted and go to bed thinking the game is the worst POS ever made but then you wake up with a fresh mind, beat the content you struggled on and return to a new found position of love for it.

F*cking hell man, Asmon almost saying who's the final boss scared the shit out of me. Thank you editor 👍🏽

bro you saved my life with bleeping out the final boss thank you so much

Personally I find the game a 7/10 because they are items you find and they don't do a good job at explaining them, and you could easily be lost and you no idea what to do. I've seen asmon get help from the chat Mutiple times because he was lost but not quite often on stream. Everything else is fine when you learn from your mistakes and what are the pros and cons about each individual item.

0:26 What is he talking about? He ended up giving up on his main build and play a broken shield, do 0 mechanics and take 0 dmg and now he's talking about the condition of the mobs? He even mentions the DAMAGE of the mobs like he has any idea about that lol

currently sitting on like 13 skadoodle level + defensive talisman + fast roll on rellana level armor + consumables, bosses are a cake. no need for summon or super armor. But im taking it really slow, enjoying every slice of lore the game offers me with every item and NPC quests. Its like a movie honestly. in a way, i feel grateful to not be a streamer and feel the weight of a viewership judging my every move. This DLC open and close so many questions while delivering outstanding views.

The internet just forgets that people rage quit at things and just come right back to it lol

There's always a redemption act

For me only flaw of DLC is that they not solved problem of heavier armors making it more fair for light builds. Sure light builds still die a bit quicker if they got hit but once you learn pattern (average 2-3 deaths) you can trade it for juicy investment in stats giving you 200 dmg per hit. Also items increasing power in DLC follows same behaviour (i.e. absorbtion stack) meaning light builds get more value of it while getting same percentage increase of damage. I would rather have flat value caping at 99%. It would be more fair.

Dude went full spinal ta... 12?!?!

Well good to know Asmon finally saw the light after being in the shadow of the Erdtree 😆

I am pleased Asmon found the game extremely difficult and correctly pointed out the fact that it makes it then not fun at all. But he also thought about it and found a way to make it more enjoyable by understanding his mechanical limits and adjusting his build to offset them. He is the perfect example that From games are only as hard as you want them to be.

shield andy smh

Bro saw that speaking about the bosses's bullshit balance was the unpopular opinion and had to "change his mind" lmao Coward.

The DLC is like you paid for a burger, and then they came up and gave you another one for free

The only problem I have with the dlc is the bosses just dont give you anytime ti charge up spells or heal. You literally have to change you build to even stand a chance against some of them.

Yep, if you can't beat the bosses, use a shield and use summons, don't demand that everyone else has to lose the challenge that they payed for, we will feel completely gimped if it gets nerfed, then we will forever hear "well I beat it before the patch so if you didn't beat it before the patch then you didn't really beat the REAL game"

I hope the editor gets paid really well, makes this clown look likeable

Dude did a complete 180, just 2 days ago he was crying saying the dlc was too hard and not fair, now he's saying its the greatest dlc he's ever played. And the damage and health was fair, i like asmongold but you don't get to change your horrible take you had 2 days ago because you changed your build because you were getting destroyed to one of the most braindead ones elden ring has to offer.

Props for the editor cutting the last boss out because i couldnt pause fast enough as i didnt saw it coming. Editor is carrying this channel and Asmon

Positives: 1. Well made world. 2. Finally more or less straightforward quests that doesn't abruptly end if you kill that boss earlier than that fly on the other side of the map or skipp dialogue somewhere with someone don't know where. 3. Great NPCs Negatives: 1. Reused assets everywhere. 2. Some bosses are just annoying: epileptic, too many effects, summon "Bad camera" ally 3. Performance. Another enemy to fight here and there. Low utilisation of both GPU and CPU points at poor optimization. 4. Vast spaces that filled with nothing. Shrink it twofold and nothing will be lost. 5. Same bad mechanics inherited from original. Input delay, input queue, input reading, 3 actions on on button, fixed 60 fps. As good(and bad) as an original if you can overcome initial disbalance of damage and damage reduction.

The build that saved his life, changed his life. Congrats huge W.

40 h extra gameplay Me 38h in: where the hell is the 3rd boss ?

Bayle was such a epic fight. I enjoyed every last moment of fighting that thing. The fight itself, the visual, how the map leads to Bayle, the weapon you get on the way to that side of the map, the NPCs, it was all well put together.

He was wrong after Fritanga called him out lmao

Damn, it's amazing that Pipin from Berserk is the final boss for SotE! From easter eggs to a whole easter bunny!

Yea I really wanted Godwyn to be part of the story, especially considering Miquella and him have a deep connection and I think the last boss is a big surprise sure, but I wanted something else, and I feel like Godwyn would have made more sense in that regard.

honestly,its nice that he realized that he wasn't all correct on his video originally

Can people stop giving ratings like 11/10? It makes no sense as a rating.

I love how the editor was censoring bad words, but missed it the last one 😂

I think a ressurected godwyn would've made a great final boss, especially becuase he's the only demigod we haven't seen in detail or had a boss fight for at this point. I mean, there's no lore reason he couldn't considering ****** was the final boss anyway. If ya know ya know.

Bro really didn't pick the shaman village as favorite location.

DLC has been great. Enemies still do too much damage though.

>no spoilers *look inside* >spoilers

I love how you censored the name of the boss but showed the armor lol

Post-Souls clarity is wild.

So it’s murder until proven guilty is it - Mohg

I started the DLC with my build that I used to finish the main campaign, and it's been relatively smooth. I think the DLC experience is balanced and what they say about difficulty is exaggerated.

He cheeses every souls the game the exact same way. Put all points in strength, die 100 times, scream, finally beat it. Claim its the beat game.

Thanks for the spoiler parry Editor, you're a real fuckin G

thanks editor for censoring spoilers, i only listened to the video to not spoil me since i still havent started the DLC. Too bad i already spoiled me the last boss on a random video, i got some Malenia mods on my feed, and when i saw the "that one" i thought it was a mod too.

If Godwin was the final boss that would have been legendary

Ending boss could have been cooler, BUT 1) lore plot twist was cool, and 2) we got to actually fight that mf at near-prime

Great DLC for the content that players get, but I'm shocked why FromSoftware haven't updated their 5/5 game for modern standards like: upscaling, framegen, ultrawide support... I played the DLC with 4k DLSS performance with maxed out graphics. Even RT granked to the max and the game run 120 fps. It felt so great + looked so nice, but had to turn those things off because the online messages, death animations. It's not the same without those on. The game runs so badly compared to simple mods that devs could add those features so easily. Great DLC so far, but it's far from perfect. PS. No idea if it's the online anti-cheat thing, but there are a lot of weird stutters that never happened with offline + mods.

This DLC was kinda just a dissapointment. A lot of the boss design is unfun, instead of challenging. Final boss prime example. Hitboxes can be really bad like Messmer snake, Gaius charge. The game loves to waste your time by making you explore the world for Scadutree Fragments. That is bad game design because you shouldn't be forced to explore, but exploring should be incentive based. Scadutree fragments force you to explore if you are stuck or getting one-shot. The camera being bad on a lot of bosses. Lion and Jippo are good examples. The Finger ruin areas that take up like 10% of the map combined are just completely empty except for the remembrance copy. Some of the new weapons are kinda bad. The hand-to-hand are just worse options than the fist category. Great katana's might as well just be reskinned Greatswords. Some old categories got like 3-5 wepaons while there is a new category with only one weapon. How is that acceptable? DLC is a 7/10 because I think it's worse than og Elden Ring by a lot and I gave that a 8/10.

Appreciate the Editor keeping me spoiler free, needed that fr

It could never be godwyn, he is dead as in dead dead, no soul or anything, there isnt anything left to be reviced. Lore wise, Prime rhadan makes the most sense.

My biggest complaint is that so much of the boss fight "meat" is at the back half of the game. For a game the size of DS3, that's not a huge deal. It's like two days of chipping away at it, now you are can fight like 10 different crazy lategame bosses. For a game the size of Elden Ring, PC players having the ability to drag and drop someone elses save file and go RE-EXPERIENCE THE GAME is honestly huge. If I am getting my teeth kicked in and decide to summon someone who just obliterates the boss and I want that harder experience and to have a longer boss fight where the boss didn't get stunlocked, it's like anywhere from 20-100 hours of gameplay away. DS3 sized game, that was an afternoon of replaying. IDK. Bigger not always better.

How can the writing be an 11 when he just said that the ending disappointed him and it only made sense to him until after people explained him the lore?

Imagine if there's no shield in the games, that would be 6/10 for him lmao

Witcher dlc still clears even though I did not play any of these games.

Old hunters was amazing too Bayle is insanely good

Blood and Wine is still the best DLC/Expansion ever to me, but I'm sure many have recency bias at the moment. Plus, it's just a completely different kind of game.

People are simping way too hard on fromsoftware games I wonder how much money he got paid to say this stuff. Like obviously this is a great game and great DLC but the kind of bullshit argument like "some things in the game are a 12/10" is ridiculous and takes away from the credibility of the review.

I think Radahn as the final boss was great, the plot twist really hit me in the right spot.

the lore makes sense for the final boss (no spoiler) but it is just kinda boring of a fight its cool but i think most expected something more or different from what it was as a ingame fight but we can all agree its a 10/10 peak

Editor saving people who haven't completed it from spoilers? Damn, they say not all heroes wear capes but apperently, they have to look at a balding man all day.
