I don't trust IGN 10/10 reviews.

Never trust a 10/10 on any game on (or before) day release

Always good advice.

I am not as worried about this particular DLC because, by all accounts, it is just more Elden Ring, so if you like Elden Ring you'll like this.

But the number of times I've seen games reviewed with 10/10, 5 stars, highly recommend, etc., only for there to be a day 1 patch that makes it a lot more grindy, filling it with MTX and season passes...what can it be called other than a bait and switch?

Fraud is a pretty good word too.
