Unfortunately I had to do a completely new run of elden ring to make it to the dlc and had already put in about 100 hours.

Now that I'm in the dlc I'm about halfway through it and starting to get burnt out.

I can tell it's really good. I think I'm just burnt out on Elden ring because it's all I've been playing lately in an attempt to unlock the dlc

Tldr I wish I would have had my Xbox and my old character to jump straight into the dlc instead of starting over on ps5 and playing through nearly the entire base hame.

    Yes

    story spoilers

    He is Radahn's soul inhabiting Mogh's body (There are Omen horns on his model, and phase one of the fight even uses Bloodflame).

    Malenia went to Caelid on Miquella's orders to kill Radahn's soul with the scarlet rot while keeping his body alive (much like what happened to Godwyn the Golden). Then after the tarnished kills Mogh, his body was whisked away to the Shadow Realm (where dead things end up) for Miquella to combine the two into his new consort. Why he couldn't just drag Radahn's body down too idk, it's Empyrean shit - maybe creating a new demigod consort was easier than convincing his brother to do incest instead of just staring at the stars all day. Meanwhile Miquella shedding his body all over the place is kind of like what Ranni did in the main game. The damn twink set everyone up!

    This is explained in the quest with Ansbach and Freyja in the Shadow Keep Storehouse, but given fromsoft storytelling I'm probably wrong on a detail or two.
