Anneau ancien: Shadow of the Erdtree est de retour sur « Mostly Positive »’ Les critiques Steam après des difficultés et des problèmes de performances lui ont donné une note « Mixte »’ réception

Despite a sterling response from journalists et frankly absurd sales numbers, Anneau ancien: L'Ombre de l'Erdtree has put off some players due to both its high difficulty level and its performance issues, surtout sur PC. It seems that Steam gamers are starting to make peace with the DLC, cependant, as the expansion’s rating has just clawed back from ‘Mixed’ to ‘Mostly Positive.’

That means the expansion has only just hit 70% avis positifs. If you head over to the Page de vapeur and take a look at the chart showing how many positive and negative reviews come in each day, the highest proportion of poor ratings came in on June 22, the third day after the expansion’s launch – I’m guessing that’s about how long it took the average player to reach Rellana.

Since the weekend, fewer of both positive and negative reviews have been coming in, but the negative ones have dropped off much faster. Probablement, that means the players who find the difficulty off-putting have just given up, and those who’ve stuck with it are enjoying themselves.

Bien sûr, it’s worth noting that many of the negative reviews cite not the difficulty, but the game’s performance as a central issue. Tech analysis from the folks at Fonderie numérique suggest that the frame rate hiccups Elden Ring suffered at launch aren’t much better now, and the issues seem particularly pronounced on PC – qui, bien sûr, would be a key point affecting Steam reviews.
