Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree currently has a 'Mixed' status on Steam, with many of the negative reviews complaining that the bosses are too hard [also game's PC performance] (www.pcgamer.com)

Please note this article is 100% BS. The DLC currently has a Mostly Positive rating on Steam with 87% of the people leaving a positive review.

The people complaining are mostly about stuff like crashes, bad net code and poor fps. This is not a dlc thing, but a base game thing. The pc port simply has some issues, for most people it's totally fine. For others it's unplayable. With the amount of different systems out there, there is always going to be a group of people with issues. I feel like this is a very vocal minority though.

Check again, sitting at mixed reviews at 63% positive.

There's going to be a lot of people confused because there are actually TWO Shadow of the Erdtree listings.

One is the premium bundle which is at mostly positive and there is the DLC by itself which is mixed.

Check listings under publisher: Fromsoftware Inc

Oh lol, that explains it

There's actually two listings for the DLC which is confusing but one is mostly positive and the other is mixed.

It's typical click bait from a once, long ago, enjoyable magazine about PC games. Now PCG just outputs game guides and incessantly complains about AI.

The base dlc is mixed reviews and there are plenty of reviews stating how hard bosses hit and how the scaling seems pointless, so no, the article is not BS.
