HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA MAYBE IN THE DLC FROMSLOP PIGGIES!
that's a good thing
This is clearly intended to be a live service, those will be added in future seasons or as dlc. Assuming this sells well enough to get any support, mind you.
Kind of a shame. Wish we could have gotten a redone Darklurker
Wait, there's gonna be dark souls bosses in the game?
NO SIR ALONNE
the most baffling omission ngl. would make a perfect foil to the crucible samurai parry dude
Fromdrones are now mad at them not reusing enough assets
I give up
There's only a confirmed DLC in Q4
Kek, I know right.
There are also ONLY Elden Ring enemies available to fight, there are no standard enemies from the Souls series you will fight in Nightreign
They should reuse everything. This is the Fortnite of Souls.
lmao
Their slop addiction is terminal
When part of your advertising for the game is:
LOOK! It's your favorite asset, he's coming back!
Then it's a little embarrassing to only reuse 6, no?
They're thoroughly raped
40$ for a mod, you fags deserve it.
reveal
"HAHA WOW! REUSING DARK SOULS BOSSES! WHAT A SHIT GAME!"
now
"HAHA WOW! NOT REUSING ENOUGH DARK SOULS BOSSES! WHAT A SHIT GAME!"
2 of the worst bosses from DS1
What did they mean by that?
DS1 picks are kinda meh with the 2 jobbers, they couldn't get nito or something?
the end of fromsoft cannot come soon enough
first bloodborne, then ds3, then elden ring, now two online-only PvE asset flips
Dancer
Nice. Other than pontiff and the dudes who killed each other forever she seems like the best fit for a 3 player game. Her move set was lots of wide arc attacks perfect for multiple attackers.
Also my favorite looking boss in DS3.
playing soulslike
wow, this would be so much more fun if there was multiple people hitting the boss
Who thought that'd be a good idea?
I think the DS2 picks are decent enough, Duke's Dear Freja is the most novel boss in any Souls game solely because of the NG+ aspect, and it's just a cool bigass two-headed spider. And Smelter Demon caused endless ass bleeding online.
DaS' picks are odd though. A shit optional boss and probably the most forgettable 'main' boss in the game.
I can't believe it myself
Duke's Dear Freja is the most novel boss in any Souls game solely because of the NG+ aspect
Eh, early encounter aside the fight is pretty trivial if you just bring a torch (and just annoying otherwise).
No O&S is a bit weird but I also think that centipede demon and gaping dragon are the bosses that could be improved the most with a remake besides maybe ceaseless discharge.
pretty trivial
Yeah it's not an especially hard fight, I just think it's really neat what they did.
Having the boss surprise you on your second playthrough by scaling up the cliff and ambushing you. And then the health lost is kept for its next encounter.
That's the one thing I'll always praise DS2 for, its NG+, the other games barely tried with theirs.
"Haha lol assets from my previous software XD"
"Haha lol only 6 assets from my previous software XD"
At least make up your mind faggot
The entire game is made up of reused assets, they might as well just go hogwild with it
If it's gonna be an asset flip, which it already is, it should at least go all out
why would they put in the DLC bosses dummy?
this is basically ensuring that DS1-3 will get a boost in sales
Don't worry bro they'll just turn this shit into another GaaS and dripfeed new updates featuring old bosses.
so wait you want the assets reused now I can't keep up with this shit
You guys realize that the only NEW things in the entire game are the 8 new final bosses, right? This means anything that isn't pulled from Souls is just a reused Elden Ring enemy again. It's asset reuse either way, it would have been better to have more variety.
no pvp invasions
FUCK YEAH SMELTER DEMON
HOOOLY SHIT GOTY GOTY GOTY
yeah """"fromdrones"""" made this thread and not the people looking for any angle to shit on NewGame
Where's the character trailer for the Summoner doll? I want to know if I'm actually buying the game or not based on her gameplay.
This one is a huge loss.
Lots of people don't even know about it's existence.
One of the best bosses in all the Souls games.
I'll never understand the autism of people who get off work every day and just invade people in the same boring ass Elden Ring and DS3 levels every night so they can mash R1 and circle and think they're some video game pro. Play a fighting game or something. Invasions aren't fun in these games anymore since none of them have interesting level design anymore like in Demon's Souls and Dark Souls.
duhhh why no play other game duhhhh
No Bloodborne bosses
Shame. Vicar Amelia and Ebrietas would've been right at home in Elden Ring.
Pic related: souls PvP fans
Fromsoft have no right to use them
They can reuse the skeleton model and animations.
Every single returning Dark Souls boss is Nightreign is new, a completely different asset
So technically Nightreign has 14 new bosses
