What makes the expansion so exciting, however, is the desire to return to the roots of this subgenre without abandoning the characteristics that determined the success of Elden Ring.
A job that is not always perfect (see some problems that still remain on the balance front) but truly full of ideas, innovations and solutions that manage to elevate the entire experience, especially in the eyes of the most die-hard fans.
The same comparison with a acclaimed product like The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt only confirms the incredible qualities of a title that is already a classic and which seems to have not yet exhausted its full potential.
