FromSoft hands out a mega-nerf to Shadow of the Erdtree's final boss, players begin printing their 'I beat him pre-patch' t-shirts to lord it over the rest of us

Radahn.

If you've already beaten Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtree's final boss, congratulations. You're now part of a lucky few who have full licence to be insufferable to anyone who only manages it after today. FromSoft has just released a new patch that hands out some nerfs to the expansion's final fight, making it—frankly—baby-school stuff. Just pathetically easy. True gamers need not apply.

Okay, not actually. The final fight is still gonna be an ordeal for anyone without Let Me Solo Her-style skills, but it has gotten easier with the latest patch. Spoilers ahead for the identity of the DLC's final boss, if you're worried about that, though I have tens of hours in this thing and still don't really understand what's going on. Read the item descriptions? Who has time for that?
