Elden Ring is one of the video games that has been made available to the general public that contains one of the most comprehensive sets of features. Elden Ring is on the complete opposite end of the spectrum from other games, which are increasingly adopting a live-service model that focuses on seasonal content and battle passes. Elden Ring is a free-to-play MMORPG with no subscription fees. Elden Ring doesn't charge an exorbitant amount of money for the game because they provide hundreds of hours' worth of content instead. It is well worth the price to buy Elden Ring because it includes a vast open world, a lore that is extremely intricate, more than one hundred boss fights, a wide variety of enemy types, a large number of dungeons, and more weapons and armor than any other game that FromSoftware has ever developed has ever included. Nevertheless, FromSoftware is not content to simply leave it at that and move on. After releasing a number of updates and patches, some of which added some new content, FromSoftware announced that a full-fledged downloadable content (DLC) expansion would be coming to Elden Ring at some point in the not too distant future. This news came after FromSoftware released a number of updates and patches, some of which added some new content.
Even though fans don't know much about it, Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree is said to be the most ambitious DLC expansion that FromSoftware has ever created. This is saying a lot given how much they've already accomplished, but it's said to be the most ambitious DLC expansion that FromSoftware has ever created. And despite the fact that Shadow of the Erdtree will almost certainly be updated with a plethora of new bosses, enemies, weapons, and armors, there is one relatively minor addition that has the potential to have a significant influence on a particular subset of players. This player subset is players who have completed the game's main storyline. It is recommended that additional trophies be included in the Elden Rings: Shadow of the Erdtree downloadable content. Elden Ring is not an exception to the rule that the trophy or achievement lists in FromSoftware games are notoriously difficult but always rewarding, and this holds true for Elden Ring as well. The Elden Rings Platinum journey can take players anywhere from 65 hours to well over 100 hours, depending on how they go about hunting down those trophies.
This time estimate is based on the average amount of time spent collecting trophies in the game
On PSNProfiles, the Elden Rings platinum journey is rated as having a difficulty level of seven out of ten points
The good news is that missing out on only one of Elden Ring's trophies is even remotely possible
Because of this, players can spend the majority of their time with Elden Ring concentrating on simply having fun, and they will eventually get around to collecting all of the game's goodies when they get the hankering to do so
There is no denying that hunting for trophies is not something that appeals to everyone
This is especially true when one takes into consideration the fact that the path to Platinum can take more than 100 hours to complete and requires a significant amount of patience in addition to a high level of skill
The Elden Rings trophy list is a real hidden treat, encouraging the most dedicated players to see absolutely everything that this huge game has to offer
This list can be found in the game's settings menu
However, the Elden Rings trophy list is a major letdown for players who are obsessive about collecting trophies and checking off achievements in their games
And even though the vast majority of players probably won't give it a second thought, it would mean a lot to the fans of Elden Rings Shadow of the Erdtree if another extensive list of trophies was added to the game through the use of downloadable content (DLC). The idea of rewarding players with trophies and achievements for completing downloadable content (DLC) is not novel in the video game industry. In point of fact, nearly every major expansion for a AAA video game includes a new group of digital awards for players to look for and ultimately obtain. Even though these trophies are frequently kept separate from the main list and, as a result, completing them does not result in the awarding of a Platinum trophy, the vast majority of people who go after trophies do not seem to be bothered by the fact that this is the case. Many players, on the other hand, see it merely as an incentive to explore every nook and cranny of the game's terrain. There should not be an exception made for Shadow of the Erdtree; the DLC should include trophies that can be earned by vanquishing the new bosses that the DLC adds to the game, exploring any newly added areas of the map, and finding all of the new weapons and armor that the DLC adds to the game.
If the Elden Rings Shadow of the Erdtree downloadable content really wanted to go above and beyond, it could even add trophies based on all of the additional content that FromSoftware has added to the game since it was first released. This would be an example of something that would be considered going above and beyond. Over the course of the past year and a half, FromSoftware has maintained the release of new updates for Elden Ring. Some of these updates have included the addition of some new features, such as new NPC questlines and the PvP Coliseum. It would be fantastic if Shadow of the Erdtree added a handful of trophies based on these post-launch updates as well, as this would provide previous players with an incentive to return to the game and investigate everything that they have been missing out on. However, if Shadow of the Erdtree does not add any trophies based on these post-launch updates, then it will not be as fantastic.
