It’s not hard to see how Shadow of the Erdtree<\/a><\/em>‘s final boss, the tough-as-nails Promised Consort Radahn<\/a>, could drive someone to quitting. Out of all the hurdles the game presents you with, this one is by far the highest\u2014befitting its placement as the last obstacle players are tasked with defeating. Over a hundred of xQc’s 614 deaths were at the hands of Radahn alone, which actually prompted him to quit Erdtree <\/em>entirely out of frustration.<\/p>
xQc isn’t alone in decrying the DLC; fellow streamer Asmongold also spoke out against its difficulty<\/a> (and briefly ragequit.) The community as a whole is also fed up with the tough movesets of bosses like Twin Moon Knight Rellana<\/a>, and not for no reason\u2014it took me 40-odd tries just to get past this punishing skill check of a boss.<\/p>
However, there are certain measures introduced in the DLC, like Scadutree Fragments<\/a>, that are designed to make these brutal bosses easier and encourage exploration at the same time.
