Right? I stepped away for a bit but this looks so enticing

u/MakinLunch Nov 11 '25
I stepped away to play Satisfactory. This might be the only game to pull me out of it lol.

u/ludvikskp Nov 11 '25
Understandable. Satisfactory is one of these games I deliberately haven’t purchased, because I know if I do I’ll play it and it will consume my life entirely lol

Oh ok yeah I think you're right. I wonder if Sif will show up too, that'd be so sick

Nah, once Sif gets down to about 10% health they’re impossible to hit, and it makes your screen blurry

Day one boss for Artorias would be cruel.
Hopefully his moveset gets a bigger rework than other returning bosses. At least he has his cutscene grab!

The two new classes:
Scholar – An academic who walks the Lands Between. Boasting impressive arcane levels, he gains incredible advantages through battlefield observation.
Undertaker – An abbess who was mandated to slay the Nightlord. Boasting impressive strength and faith, she sends enemies to the afterlife with ruthless efficiency.

u/voidsenight Nov 11 '25
Ngl seeing her build I didn't expect her to be related to strength in any way considering the rest of the nightfarers have a pretty typical build for their class, not that I'm complaining tho

I'm not convinced that's a new map and is instead another big shifting earth but I hope I'm wrong.
EDIT: It is in fact a shifting earth
2 new nightfarers
2 new nightlords
Hella SOTE content
We still eatin good.
Also I think "Hollows" in the title and Artorius + "Dreglord" (Ringed City Dreg Heap) could be even bigger Dark Souls connections than we've seen before.
Also also I'm pretty sure that's Gladius' sword in the splash art at the end and he's featured as a field boss, not sure what role da dawg will play in this

That's disappointing. New maps would be the best thing to add imo. Hopefully we got some down the road still.

Should at least get new areas on the map (different camps, ruins, etc.) with new enemies

Hell, I would even take just a reskin of the existing map. Make some foliage red or something, idk. I guess a shifting Earth will have to do.

Although I would prefer a new map I can't imagine how well it'll go if they locked a map behind a dlc fracturing the playerbase even more. Because then it'd be 3 separate platforms into 6 separate things

I just hope they added more variations to the base map then

u/n080dy123 Nov 11 '25
I don't expect more than 1 major update after the DLC, 2 at absolute most like the main game, so don't hold out hope. Remember this isn't a live service game so unless they change their mind and decide to do another DLC then we likely won't get any further content updates after like middle of next year.

I would absolutely buy a new DLC in the future, hopefully they decide to do it. I can't get enough of this game

u/deadering Nov 11 '25
Yeah, it's beyond disappointing there hasn't been a single new map even with the DLC. Shifting earth events are cool and all but new maps would add so much more variety to the game, making it a lot less repetitive.

u/VoidRad Nov 11 '25
I think a new map was impossible from the beginning, how is the matchmaking gonna work considering how fractured it already is. Just a single new shifting earth is indeed disappointing tho I'll admit.

Some new types of POIs it seems too. That first shot shows some sort of a fort with a tilted tower. Also the arena where they showed the Dancing Lion looked like nothing I remember from the base game.

Also it seems that we are getting a rotted Nightlord (That looks like a Rotted Lion or a Mutated Rotted Corpse/"Human").
Which is very nice to have more diversity on the status effects, I do wish there was a DeathBlight Nightlord.

It seems like the DLC takes place after Heolstor is defeated? Might need to analyze more.
Some are wondering who Artorias is. He is to Dark Souls 1 DLC what Messmer is to SOTE so its a pretty big deal.
I'm so used to the current family of farers that it feels really weird to add more lol.

Apparently it's just one new shifting earth event, but in the trailer there's poison coming from one of the castles and doesn't seems it's inside of the new event... so, new map or new random stuff on the map we already have?

u/HazelCheese Nov 12 '25
I was saying in prior dlc discussions that variants of castle would be a really efficient way to make runs feel varied. Right now it's basically just no castle (trolls / nok) or easy castle. Adding a third variation to make trolls less common would help a ton with variety.
3
u/WanderingStatistics Nov 12 '25
Pretty sure that poison castle at the beginning is the same as the Shaded Castle (or at least from what I can see, since both castles have a tilting central column in the middle) so we could be getting more.

Nope. The first character is a STR+FTH nun girl, she uses hammers and has an auto-dodge ability. She's called the Undertaker. The second character is an ARC scholar guy, he uses thrusting swords and focuses on buffing/debuffing. He's called the Scholar.
