*Takes Breath*

Says 3.8 Hours played but thats just on Steam. I also have a decent amount of Hours on PS5 with Gameshare with a friend. Im sure I might be missing some stuff I put into these reviews but this is all coming from the top of my head.

The scrutiny this game is receiving is not called for at all. Mostly coming from single player heads wanting another single player game (Not valid reason) and people wanting Duos (Valid reason) Its a very fun game at a fair price of $40. Maybe could of dropped to $30 but I wasnt upset I played $40 dollars for it. Does it have problems, yes. Is it "Unplayable", No.

I got more improvements than positives but I still recommend the game. Most are QoL improvements for me.

Positives:
- The game is fun. The closest thing we have to a true coop experience fromsoft game without mods. The dopamine hit from winning a run is great.

- The unique moves and characters in the game feel different and play great. From the (Much needed) improvement to Archery, the unique playstyle of Revenant, the new mobile attacks of Guardian, Transformations of Executor. They really nailed the uniqueness and feel of each character.

Improvements they can make:
- The biggest issue is no Duos. It is frustration playing with a random and them just doing thier own thing. Fromsoft have already addressed this and are looking to add the mode in a future update. I would expect it sooner rather than later but we will see.

- Solo mode is unplayable unless your the tip top Souls player. The balance is not good solo and needs to be addressed. I heard its one of immediate patches releasing to fix this next week (1.02). Will it be enough, only time will tell.

- A game like this needs a better stat description. With grabbing things on the fly and such there needs to be a better way to identify weapon effect (Flame, lightning, etc) rather than remembering the 300 (Sarcasm) different icons for what things do. Add a chart or key or something to help with this.

- No character individual loot pool feels bad. Loot goblins ruin the game especially playing with randoms. Its especially bad early game when nobody has any gear. Pair that with no VC or text chat and its hard to communicate with others in you party for what you need/looking for.

Over 2000 hours on PS5/PS4....Loved it. (Except for never finding a Mighty Bow Gem) :(

I love Fromsoft, I live Elden Ring. I however hate the direction they took with the DLC.

Most Fromsoft bosses have a dance to them. Learn the patterns, make mistakes and learn from them. Come back stronger for it.

Shadow of the Erdtree does not. It's bosses are mainly 10 plus combo attacks that are spammed nonstop or include AoE on top of the attacks with non sensual dodge times.

It doesn't feel like a dance no more. It feels more like a fight in a crack house.

For the life of me cant get the sound to work. Literally the only game I own that I have this problem with. I got it as a gift so luckily didnt spend money on this but its ridiculous that I am having this issue.

If anyone have suggestions to fix please let me know.

Sorry, just found it boring.

Will change this review after support gets thier head out of thier ass and resolves the issue. Keep in mind I played in the PS beta last weekend and not one issue.

So I literally downloaded the steam version, went into create a class and messed arround to make sure my PS progression was there. Ended up leaving for a sec to gas station to get snacks and when I came back the game said I was disconnected. I clicked on the retry connection 3 or so times and got the CASMERA RHINO error code and said I was perma banned....

I have not and never will cheat in a video game. Im not sure why I was flagged but would love a response that wasnt the same lame ass copy and paste response that everyone has been getting.

Wonderful Game
