What do you all think about the price for Elden Rings dlc?

For me in Canada it’s $53.49 +tx so around $61 total.

That’s the cost of a new game, not a dlc.

Given the track record of the company I’m sure the dlc will be amazing, but I’m very curious as to the length of it as well.

    I’ve happily paid $70 CAD for games significantly shorter and smaller in scope than Shadow of the Erdtree looks. Plus I’m wanting to jump back into Elden Ring anyways and I more than felt like I got my money’s worth the first couple of times. So $56.16 CAD (what my receipt says it cost me) is pretty much fine for that.

    This might be a weird take, but I don’t really care whether I’m paying for a new game, a DLC, a microtransaction, or even a gacha pull. If it seems like it’s somehow worthwhile, whether that’s by fun or hours played or novelty or whatever, I don’t really worry that much about what form it takes. This usually means I just buy new games (how often is a microtransaction at all reasonable to pay for?) but I don’t really worry about DLC pricing if it looks good.
