Since the release of the DLC 'Shadow of the Golden Tree' for 'Elden Ring' on June 27, 2024, players have been discussing the high difficulty level of the new boss encounters, leading to mixed reviews on Steam. Analysis on SteamScout shows that English-speaking countries mostly give extremely positive reviews, while players from Asian regions tend to give negative feedback or mixed reviews, indicating differing opinions between Eastern and Western players. In response to player feedback, the developers unexpectedly released version 1.12.2 yesterday, with adjustments to weapon effects and combat skills, particularly increasing the power-up curve and damage reduction of the 'Shadow of the Golden Tree' early on. Additionally, the update includes rare visual guides reminding players to collect 'Shadow of the Golden Tree Fragments' and 'Spirit Ash' for enhancing the protection. The impact of these changes on players' success against the bosses and overall game reviews remains to be seen.
