The DLC is really the right balance for FromSoft.

The zones in the base game are slightly too big.

In the DLC, it's still open world and extremely flexible in how you explore it, but there's less wasted space.

It's very tightly knit and the pacing is better as a result.

It's like Elden Ring was watching masters of their craft cut their teeth on something new, and then the DLC was them applying everything they learned in that process.

Can't wait for their next game in that same vein (especially not held back by last gen consoles).
