The PC version of the Shadow of the Erdtree is seeing a nice discount ahead of its release.

$40 for a DLC is fairly ridiculous, $35 isn't much better.

That's more than half the price of the base game! Is the DLC going to have more than half a base game's worth of content?

Most likely. From Software traditionally make some of the best DLC in the industry.

Sure, but they don't have more than half the base game's worth of content and time in em.

An especially daunting task with Elden Ring, which is huge.

I worry that this kind of price point will become acceptable if this does well and I simply don't think that is okay. $40 is far too much for DLC.

Yeah anyone on PC should try and cross reference prices on the various 3rd party storefronts vs Steam. I use gg.deals to do this.
