Frozen empress DLC dissapointing

[Karma]

So if people are thinking about getting this latest DLC, Dont bother.

Challanges are litterly the exact same as the hellfire knight.
The Frozen empress moves are mostly based on RNG. (Who thinks thats fun.)
Overall, i think the devs are just being slack.

Hell even the blood veils are just copy and pasted with a little bit of purple on them. They could of went all out and made them have ice and stuff all over them. Honestly, What are the devs thinking.

If you pay for DLC, it shouldnt be one small map with the same challanges as the previous and one new RNG boss. It should be a proper expansion pack. I wanted to see What happens outside of the red mist. A better expanded story past the endings. But nope. Lazy dev team doesnt care. its a big dissapointment

Yeah, I liked the last boss, but this one just covers the arena in random projectiles that serve to make all the "do X Y times without getting hit" tasks a pain in the arse.

Yeaaah......this boss is really wonky with the Achievements .....
took me ages to complete the "Evade X times in a row" because it didnt really count it correct like it did on Hellfire Knight.

Also there is absolutely no way in icy hell that im going to do any of the "No damage taken" ones in this one, thats just absurd.

Thankfully the super mega amazing spinning fire swords of death cleared the 50 hits in a row in an instant. Thanks first DLC.

Does anyone know what you can parry on the boss?

The dodge one is by far the hardest, just so much that doesn't count towards it. Remember the ice thing he does throw - nope. I feel like only his non caster stuff counts towards it but i'll have to test more in that regard.

He is a caster so yeah... Once a while he does a backhand slap with his right (like the Hellfire did) and follow's up with a left hand swipe - thats your timing.

I won't even bother playing the second dlc and even the third, assume it will be the same lazy content.
I think my 400+ hours journey on code vein has ended now

She is actually easier to kill compared to the knight, All you do is use the surt blood code and you basically win within a minute. The parrying and dodging is terrible as hell. I think the only thing that is worth it is the bayonet due basically full auto on the charged heavy attack. Apart from that. its kinda ehh

I don't play because i won't find this new content interesting. the first DLC was kinda underwhelming, and i literally rushed it (playing for achievements on hellfire knight was boring to me). The reason that made me spend around 350 hours on multi was helping other revenants (and sometimes trolling them with ishtar code and that "you can't die, so you'll suffer with 1hp"). the current multi is almost dead, the new contents are poor, there's no reason to spend more unless you're motivated to achieve some goals such as speedrunning the game without being hit once.
