[@eduardomartin8510]

@@dendrien It IS DEI though. Imagine you want to hire the best 20% and you want to have parity so EQUAL numbers of every group (which isn't even the case anymore, they want 0% of a certain group, but let's ignore that for now). You have two possible populations from which to pick from: population of 100 apples and the other of 20 oranges. Assuming both apples and oranges are equally skilled then you'd hire 20 apples out of 100... but then you'd have to hire ALL the oranges. So you'd have to assume, which is obviously not true, that all 20 oranges are just as good as the top 20% of apples. That's just not true and not mathematically possible. In a normal, not absolute parity scenario, assuming all groups are equal, you'd hire about 20 apples and 4 oranges. We also know, based on data, that the most skilled and the most represented group that usually studies for this kind of career are those who they want to hire 0% of, so that makes it even more dramatic. If this keeps up the quality will drop even more to levels you can't even imagine. And I personally don't even know if it's possible. I don't think there's even ENOUGH NUMBERS of non-members of that group who even have degrees of the sort to fill the spots. If you are part of a "desired" group with any relevant degree (programming, modeling, animation, etc.) you probably basically have almost a guaranteed spot at the moment.

It's hilarious how these companies use the excuse of "BG3 and Elden Ring took years to develop so it's an impractical standard" and now fromsoft did it again, developing a DLC that's basically a new game with minimal enemy reuses (relatively), new weapon classes that don't reuse animations like the base game (so can't complain about that either), and over 100 hours of content. All for the same price Ubisoft was selling Assassins Creed Mirage for.

[@WELLbethere]

Ok, stop right there. The Elden Ring DLC is hot garbage. Minimum enemy reuse? Bro, like half the enemies are straight out of the base game, or just reskinned, and SOME of those enemies we have been fighting literally since demon souls. DLC was a massive, empty, boring place, the legacy dungeons weren't even as good as the base game either. I fucking hated the DLC and I hope fromsoft never makes another open world souls game ever again. Dark Souls 3 remains their best title to this day.

[@hassanrao470]

@@WELLbethere damn, you definitly feel strongly about this DLC. I honestly don't think there's that much enemy reuse from the base game. Main ones I can think of are the drakes/ghostflame dragons, that one random deathrite bird, the trolls, and demi human queens, but that's not too bad when you consider that's like 1/6th of the bosses. I will say the DLC has some pretty empty places but I think this criticism is blown out of proportion because it's not like we got less content than we should've. Content wise the DLC is full of it so empty areas mean they just made it a bit bigger for ambience. I'm not saying the areas should've been empty but I also don't think it's some heinous crime that they are. The legacy dungeons, Belurat was solid in my opinion but not as detailed as something like stormviel for sure, I think it's on par with raya lucaria. Ener Elim is barely a legacy dungeon tbh, you just run up a few stairs and only do stuff if you are trying to get some hidden items. But shadow keep might be my favorite legacy dungeon in the whole game, I think they killed it with that one. I've barely played any souls games other than ER so I'll take you word for it that they should ditch open world + I've heard that sentiment from other people online too but I personally thought the DLC was great.
