This DLC has much potential, and it is better than the first one, but ultimately I felt let down by these DLCs. I mean, The Rising Tide has the most beautiful area of the entire game, it's very visually interesting and it's up there with the best games in the industry in this front. The DLC also has a super great story IMO, great music, and the new Eikon is very cool, now we have another thing besides Garuda's Gouge that can tear through enemies' stagger bars. But I felt like the battle with the Eikon itself which is the main part of the whole thing is just too slow and not good? This last question mark is me wondering if other people think the same. I also tought this whole thing of acquiring all the Eikons would make more difference in the main story, unfortunately that's not the case. The performance mode on PS5 is still bad, I guess I'll just wait to play the game on PC when it comes out.
