Amazing DLC. I had a lot of fun. There where a few bosses that were a bit too aggressive though. I used a spirit ash for one of them, but other than that, the DLC was fair and I had a lot of fun.
The world is amazing and overall it's at least as good as the base game.
Minus points for the horrible performance on a 3080. The base game runs much better, although the DLC patch did add some hiccups to the base game performance as well.

EXCEPT the final boss.

The final boss is just not fun and I had to use
a great shield with a spear and basically cheese it down. Felt zero reward but after 30 something tries with my regular build, I simply wanted to end this DLC in a positive mood. I felt no satisfaction with this final boss with my regular build (2-h weapon dex), because it didn't seam to bother this boss.

I highly recommend this DLC, but if you're in front of the final boss, just use some lame strategy and call it a day. The boss is not made to be beaten normally unless you're a god like player or use some parts of the strategy I marked above. Worst designed boss in all Fromsoft Games so far and I have played all but Demon Souls.
