Elden Ring Nightreign new details from the event

youtu.be/mb6a04tmjXo?si=5WgKylpbHaGPp4rZ

If you don't want to waste time, here's a summary

The PAX EAST demo had 2 "runs", Gladius and Libra. Libra was much harder than Gladius

Some sources at the event claimed there will be a 2 player mode and the option was greyed out at the demo

Each character has a multi-step questline that involves traveling through time or completely story objectives through events

Every run was very different

There's an online mechanic where players leave bloodstains with some loot for other players in other sessions

The player can use Winding Grace (an item looking like the grace trail in Elden Ring) to self revive. This item is very rare but more common in solo

Each Nightlord leaves a Trace of Night, probably remembrance equivalent

There's a skin of Lady Friede for a character

There's a Codex that collects all lore, and has descriptions similar to item in Souls games

man I wish Nightreign was a PvP battle royale, it could've been a non-gay version of Naraka Bladepoint. who the fuck asked for "coop boss raids: the game"?

I thought it was? I heard it was a battle royale and only the winners got to fight the npc boss. what the actual fuck is this game?

Where in the fuck did you hear something like that?

Some sources at the event claimed there will be a 2 player mode

God, I really hope so, I have exactly one friend who might be interested in playing this together, and it would be much more fun to play together instead of with a random, too.

I told it to him, I think it's funny to lie to people.

Yeah i'm sure making a full game out of the red man meme that the vast majority of players despise would work out real well.

Those aren't true souls players

Uh huh. I bet fromsoft would make a killing off the whole 50 "true souls players" out there.

They would keep their integrity

PVP IS THE ONLY REASON TO PLAY SOULS GAMES, YOU GOTTA LET ME INVADE YOU

okay, here's Duelist's Furled Finger sign.

NOOOOOOOOOOO NOT LIKE THAT!!!!

the only ones who cry about the bad red man are newbies who get shit on by twinks, and that leaving a bad impression of what PvP is like is understandable, but in a battle royale everyone is on equal footing and both good and bad players can find shit loot or good loot and skill determines who wins in the end.

Lady Friede

I've seen your kind, time and time again.
Every fleeing man must be caught. Every secret must be unearthed.
Such is the conceit of the self-proclaimed seeker of truth.
But in the end, you lack the stomach.
For the agony you'll bring upon yourself...

literally no one played Recluse at the pax or japan event

coomer status?

I agree that a battle royale could be fun especially when Fromsoft wouldn't allow you to go all out with builds and instead giving everyone specific character archetypes. I wouldn't want it at the cost of the current Nightreign however, as it looks like a great time with the lads.

weird, her skill sounds like the most interesting one out of all the characters

You guys say this cope all the time and yet it's still never going to be true. That's why they made a PvE co-op game.

Its weird to hear that the maps are more randomized than the test, but we've basically seen little to say that is the case.

explain Duskbloods then

Its weird to hear that the maps are more randomized than the test

Why? It seemed like the test map was pretty much the same everytime, I think everyone expected it would be more scrambled in the full version.

Explain the low tech switch exclusive nobody has played or knows anything about yet?
Sure let me look into my crystal ball for you.

From what I am hearing, each Nightlord has their own set of modifications probably thematically tied to them in some way.

What did it say?

SOMETIMES a volcano pops up, or SOMETIMES a forest spawns. The problem is by being timed, even if a volcano appears you are on a clock to go all the way down then back up with a circle approaching.

Yes, the terrain might be different and you are able to explore it if you wish to use your time that way.

Odds are good

I don’t participate in pvp games with horrible latency. souls pvp has always been shit

it's because retards saw a diminishing map and kept shitting themselves thinking it was a BR.

Cope

Skill determines little in BR

She requires the most brainpower to play. Would make sense a bunch of convention dwelling retards would avoid her

That's a relief personally. The one mao in the NT got old fast

played her a bunch in the network test, she unironically has a very high skill ceiling, and based on your team's synergy they can feed her to constantly throw out nukes

I really wish they'd just show off that Executor character already.

well we already know that he's a samurai dex character with a sekiro parry gimmick
I'm more interested by the summoner girl

he

I know. I just want to see it because it's what I'll be playing.

The ultimate is the most mysterious part as the text was leaked but not what it really does, it implies turning into a crucible beast.

honestly im glad from soft is making smaller games it allows for more experimental gameplay changes
