It's actually good

I don’t get it. Most of the complaints are about no voice chat and no duos. But we knew that there would be none from the start. If you consider those things to be deal breakers, why buy the game in the first place? I knew what to expect and I’m having fun with the game, the only question is about its longevity.

the only question is about its longevity.

That's another major complaint, don't be disingenuous.

Why didn't asmon like it then ?

They definitely don't spend it on making new content for their new games lol

True soulsvets are dying out and what's left are zoomer hype monsters

I had a blast playing it

Not really, the game has barely came out, making judgements about its longevity is disingenuous.

He thought Dragons Dogma 2 was a good game, his opinion doesnt matter.

No thankee sir but I shan’t be (swallowing cum or playing nightshame) I know…ugh I KNOW but I just shan’t be hahahahahaha

I tried it solo, game just felt very wrong, it felt like I was watching someone try to make what he thinks is a high effort mod, only to miss what made Elden Ring good in the first place.

DD2 was a good game only discord trannies think otherwise.

Why does it have sub 600 players playing it, still sits at mixed reviews and had no cultural impact at all, especially compared to a From game.

I like it so far, though it's hard as fuck and it's clear nobody really knows what the fuck they're meant to be doing at this stage (me included). Just running around and fucking shit up with the boys is fun though, and this game is definitely more balanced around coop than the base game.

muh player count

sit the fuck down, fromtranny

asset flip is extremely popular and dwarfs most AAA releases

This isn't the win you think it is either

because the optimization still sucks ass and the devs refuse to improve it

As someone who's burnt the fuck out from Elden Ring and wants a new way to enjoy it, this game is a treat.
But if I were somebody who hasn't played Elden Ring before and was always interested in it, and this was my first exposure to it, I'd be crazy disappointed. But then again, what retard would buy this first before Elden Ring?

spinoff isnt as popular a mainlime game in a franchise that has been going for longer than youve been born

Also DD2 is not a good game, I dont know why you posted Monster Hunter like they are the same game or related.

You cant claim a game is good, where within 6 months it was on sale and lost NINTEY PERCENT of its playerbase and still sits at mixed reviews. There is no expansion coming for it, stop glazing it, Capcom fucked up and DD suffered for it.

its actually g-ACK

Nightreign: A Deadly Descent into Elden Ring's Shattered Realm

Set in an alternate version of the world of Elden Ring, Nightreign throws players into a chaotic roguelike battleground where survival means fighting both monstrous horrors and rival adventurers. Players take control of unique warriors, each with traditional starting class gear and stats, venturing into ever-darkening environments to scavenge powerful relics, lost weapons, and forgotten magics.

As they explore, an ominous Nightfire Maelstrom closes in, corrupting everything it touches and shrinking the map, thus forcing survivors into brutal encounters in competition for treasure and extraction sites. Cooperate with allies, betray them for better loot, or fight alone against impossible odds. Boss-like creatures roam the battlefield, guarding legendary treasures, but time is never on your side---escape before the Maelstrom devours all.

Players can choose from varying game modes, including a solo dungeon where only the strongest lone warriors dare to tread, and a "Prepare To Die Edition" high-roller dungeon, where entry requires a minimum gear score, ensuring only the best-equipped fighters can face its legendary dangers...at the risk of their precious loot and runes!

With randomized weapons, loot-based build customization, and a deep risk-reward economy, Nightreign blends Soulslike combat with the roguelike dungeon crawling of Dark and Darker and the high-stakes tension of Escape from Tarkov. Will you escape with legendary spoils, or will the night claim you?

Cool trannyge, bro

Nightreign has strong foundations. The new Night Lord bosses are stellar—well-designed, beautiful, and highly engaging in multiplayer. The music is gorgeous, and Souls fans will appreciate the atmosphere and challenge. But for average players, issues quickly emerge.

There’s almost no new gear—no weapons, spells, or arts beyond minor starter items. Most content is reused Elden Ring assets, and only the Night Lords are new enemies. While asset reuse was expected, the lack of variety hurts replayability.

Communication tools are nearly nonexistent. No pings, voice lines, or player visibility in the hub—essential features for co-op games. Compounding this, the game strongly pushes 3-player co-op. Solo play is brutally hard, and no 2-player queue exists yet. Relying on randoms can lead to frustrating experiences.

For new players, the steep difficulty and lack of early progression are major barriers. There’s little reward for failed runs, no level XP system, and minimal customization or upgrades unless you down bosses. Customization is also shallow—limited to minor Relic tweaks. Paid characters suggest future runs may be gated behind microtransactions.

The pacing feels off. You’re urged to rush with fast movement and time pressure, yet enemies have bloated health pools. Bosses become lengthy damage sponges.

Fippy Bippy

I'm tired of pretending Duchess isn't the best character in the game.

Relying on randoms can lead to frustrating experiences.

So classic Soulsborne? You're mute and simply have to hope? And when communication and understanding emerges, it's very rewarding? Just like Miyazaki's snowcovered hillside where all the strangers helped push each other's cars up to the top in silence anecdote?

who cares when this slop will be dead in a month

it's hip to be square

How the FUCK do you hit the dogs? (when they split into three) How do you do any meaningful damage? I'm like periodically poking it for 140 damage with a running attack and its not getting the job done. They're as mobile as the red wolf boss and they CANNOT be hit twice in a row, they move too fucking much. And god forbid the dog you are hitting aggros towards a teammate, you will spend the next 4.2 seconds whiffing as this thing lightspeed teleports across the arena to attack someone else

300k for a roguelike expansion

i think most games would be lucky to get 5% of those numbers

Toss beast lures and wait. They reform eventually

They are complaining the game is shit you fucking shill. Just because From told everyone their retarded plan doesn't nullify the criticism

—

did you really have to GPT this?

He's a jeet so...

OH NONONONO LMAO

Not him but what's wrong with em dash? I like using it.

No you don't. You're a jeet who tries to pretend to be western. You'll never be white, shitskin.

I'm not sure if you're aware anon, but your supposed to play with 3 people. Everything is designed around 3 people.

maybe 1 in every 1000 people know the shortcut and 1 in every 10000 actually use it
but LLMs love using it so it's an obvious indicator

If you thought the plan was retarded in the first place, why did you buy the game?

i never bought the game
i'm criticising the bad product that lacks basic multiplayer features shill
get miyazaki's cock out of your mouth

Beat two night lords, kinda see how limited it is already.

Thanks for the (You)s
It's not Elden Ring, It's a new game called Elden Ring Nightreign. Consider what that means, bc you might have autism.

people were calling Marathon Concord 2

Fromslop Multiplayer is actually Concord 2

Why does Raider have that shitty moveset on all great axes? its TRASH

I can't find anyone in matchmaking in rememberence mode is that normal?

It probably means alot of people are also trying to do their remembrance, and only one can be active at a time.

Oh well I'll wait a while then and try later if no luck

If you were queuing a different night lord, try the first one again since many people who are playing probably are stuck on it still. Less than 30% had the achievement last I checked

I'm doing the revenant rememberence and the objective is to kill either the first boss or another so I figured I should queue for the first boss but no luck so far.

I think the game is fun, but the lack of map changes is really strange. I feel like it needed a second map or more significant differences between runs. The map itself is not very large either.
It is weird that there is no voice chat, it makes random queues difficult. However, if you play with friends it feels great and designed around the co-op. I had a lot of fun beating 3 of the bosses last night.
I think $40 for the game is appropriate. There is not enough content for $70 (or $80 lmao), but I feel like you can easily get ~30 hours out of the game and move on till more content drops. It's weird to me that people are treating this as From's next flagship release. It is literally a fucking budget title. You definitely don't have to like it, play it, or support it, but acting like this is Elden Ring 2 and you'll have to wait 6 years for the next major From game is really fucking weird.

Remember how people complain about the gauntlets before bosses in DS2?

Nightrein is like that, but your gauntlet to get back to the boss is 50 minutes of boring BR looting.

lies and deceit

too many braindead R1fags who don't realize there's Tank/DPS/Support in this

I'm honestly having a blast

It should show how much damage each player dealt and how many times they died

As a recluse player I disagree

Actually criticizing it would require actually playing the game through, rather than regurgitating the talking points of people who've only played pre-release snippets and not experienced the content in full.
so he might as well UBERJEETS GPT THAT SHIT UP bc he's a shitposter
Anon Babble bros...

It's actually good

why?

Ur ryt, I think they should record how many times you've looked at recluses feat and thought about rape when playing recluse

Duchess is fun but her ultimate is useless and her skill seems buggy. Sometimes I use it after a bleed/riposte/other ultimate and it does huge damage, other times it does fucking nothing even though I think I am timing it perfectly. The CD is so short though that I don't get upset or anything.

How do I play Guardian properly without just being a revive bot

her ultimate is useless

Bro. Your free revives?

Does it revive people? The only times revives are difficult are during bosses and it doesn't seem to do anything vs them. I've had times when I've been the only invisible one and the boss still targets me over the two other players who are totally visible.

How much have you seen? How many nightlords?
It seems to me the game hides a lot of map changes and events early on, and I don't think most people have killed even 3 nightlords.
The steam Cheevo for Gladius is like 23%, and considering the game barely changes until you kill him, and he's basically the tutorial nightlord, the iudex gundyr, and the whole point of the game is killing these guys, it seems to me like barely ANYONE has really gotten into the game proper.
iykyk

be invisible

revive people without being targeted at all

It's that simple

I've had times when I've been the only invisible one and the boss still targets me over the two other players who are totally visible.

It cloaks the whole party though...

Not that anon, but I've only killed the first one because the second one is just annoying explosions that cover nearly the entire room and wipe the group and I don't know how to counter it.
especially when it makes my game chug
Otherwise I'm enjoying it when I'm not actively fighting random players.

"solo play will have it's own balancing"

So that was a lie. I can reach the first night lord if I don't get hit with monkey yoda on night 1, but this is gonna take awhile. Are there any relics that grant the boss drop effects like casting spells when you walk? I like those effects.

Pray you get the relic that aggros enemies when you block their hits, and become actually useful.

Learn to use his guard, and his L2 skill frequently.
You can also charge the skill for longer duration.
His guard passive is quite strong.
I thought it was a guard step at first, but its a stance that actually drains stamina but gives you a godly block, and the "guard step" will block when going into it.

It's in an AoE around you, people can be out of range.

Go back to DaS1 then, you lazy tranny

I haven't been using his guard stance at all, I'll get to practicing it

I didn't either at first. When I started using both of those more, felt like he clicked better. Helps getting a nice weapon/shield early on admittedly, but I do like him much more now.

Yeah I assume you're talking about the GAPING dra- Maw
Me and my buddy just picked the coolest one we wanted to do (the insects), so haven't beaten that one yet.
We did succeed, and the fight was kino

I ask doe, have you seen anything other than the Crater? the trailer showed A LOT of weird and cool shit and I get the feeling barely anyone's even really seen that shit yet. The Crater is cool, haven't even found out how to get all the way to the bottom yet. We tried but couldn't figure it out in time.

redditor opinions

Its really not

Fight Gladius

Splits into three and spawns on the other side of the map so nobody can pick up aggro

They all target you and jump on you

So do you just die here? There's no rolling through that mess safely. I've never gotten through this phase without someone dying because even if they split aggro, they will still swap aggro to one person randomly during the phase.

can someone tell me what the fuck is the point of raider's ultimate skill? all it does is make an annoying wall, I never use it

Yes, it is

It's extra funny because that's how souls co op was since forever. This is really exposing who is a veteran versus who is a ER or DS3 Johnny come lately. I came in with low expectations but I've been having a ton of fun. This is hitting exactly what I wanted out of mon hun. Where wilds was a disappointment this has been a surprising success.

It staggers enemies, revives allies and buffs anyone

Thanks for the (You)s
the more people play, the more people realize it's a refreshingly fun little spin-off, and no amount of cope will change that.

iirc it give a damage buff

Wall is a safe spot vs most enemies, and it buffs you being near it. If you have an Ironeye or Recluse on your team you basically just gave them invulnerability.

He's the great filter anon
see Millions will LEARN

Sekiro parry character

Hey that's pretty cool

Parry mechanic is its own separate weapon that can't be upgraded and falls off before the end of day 1

Oh.

I want to be good at Wylder, but my first win was as Ironeye.

more like the more people play, the more people realize it's an absolute dogshit game lmao

I was. We also cant read because in the description for the hunt, it says poison makes it stop.

The game is good but WHERE THE FUCK IS DUO OPTION? HOW CAN THEY BE TOO DUMB TO INCLUDE THIS WHEN EVERY OTHER SOULS GAME HAS HAD SCALING FOR TWO PLAYERS

FUCK IT KEEP THE SCALING AT THREE PLAYERS JUST LET ME PLAY WITH MY FRIEND AND NOT HAVE TO DEAL WITH SOME RANDOM SHITTER

You lost, and got filtered schizo tranny.

I ask doe, have you seen anything other than the Crater

Missed this part.
No, but I watched a review of the game before I bought it, described the crater, some rot biome, a snowy mountain one too, and said they start appearing after certain bosses die. So it'll probably start to show as actual progress is made.
Ive barely been inside the crater because the friends I were playing with went to sleep, and its really hard to get a group of 3 people i can't voice with to all agree to explore it.
Seems like the type of game that discords and other groups are going to form around to find people to run with, at least until the content runs dry.

Who even uses voice chat these days?

that can't be upgraded

Retard

Fpbp

This game will be the long overdue great filter for the retards looking for "deep and profound" experiences in Souls games because they watched some retard on youtube talking about how Dark Souls cured his depression.

the game offers nothing but gameplay! also it's too hard! where's my epic lore?!!

Good.

Samefag tranny

Shitsunofags constantly coming into From threads to cope, seethe and dilate about their terrible flop getting their director fired and publicly known as the hack he always was

Nice Elden Ring killer, retards.

There's actually some very pretty scenery and the characters have back stories, so lorefags have something to eat too

How do you upgrade it?

Ironically, the lore is actually in the gameplay, since you actually go on quests to get each character's story Sick, can't wait to see more crazy shit change

Fippy bippy

The first boss is gonna get nerfed since 75% of the playerbase can't even clear him. Here's hoping I beat him before that happens.

Deflect attacks

I actually don't think it will, people will just learn to explore better and be faster at it.

I really prefer the snappier movement compared to base game Elden Ring, I feel like I can maneuver my character so precisely

If the numbers don't improve then it most defiantly will be. The runs where I'm kitted out with a decent set of gear someone flakes on the group.
The movement is an improvement, waiting for someone to mod it into base Elden Ring.

played it and returned it before 2 hours. It's the biggest slop I've ever played. And I've played almost every popular game in the last 10 years.

I just wish the walljump wasn't so janky

Yes but it's also irrefutably unfinished

They improved it from the NT but it's clearly WIP still

It is nice to see some actual color and sharpness in 2025 game visuals for a change.

The game's been out for less than a day man. There's nothing to nerf, people unironically just haven't adapted to the info overload and the pressure of time limit.

IN YET ANOTHER THREAD TALKING ABOUT HOW YOU GOT FUCKING FILTERED BY THE FIRST BOSS????
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
HUMILIATION RITUAL

Normally I would agree but I have a feeling that things won't improve.

You say this but its the target audience. One of the negatives of "soulslike" games is that they are almost all extremely slow and frankly boring whenever ur not exploring one of the few actually good areas each game has. Nightreign is basically trying to see how big this specific audience of "I like souls combat but I don't like the game's framework" is, and as someone in that camp, yeah it's pretty neat. I don't love it but it's fun and I do like the added combat and movement polish since its not done by the main studio who has no idea what to do in the final 5 months of a game's development.

The only issue is the damage output of him.

Nah I cleared it twice with randoms and downed it to 10% several times, even got it down to like 5% with only one dude after the third left early on

There are probably people who wanna dip their toes in the genre but get filtered by the presumed "100 hours of getting lost and reading guides to understand obscure mechanics", here it's condenced into 40 minutes and your friends can carry you.

Level 10 sekiroman

Deflect blade only scales with levels

Deflect a bunch of hits to trigger the enhanced state

Do enhanced special attack

Does as much damage as 1 (one) hit from a Raider the same level

lol lmao

I mean every ultimate is a free revive, someone like ironeye can literally revive from anywhere with his ult

There is a balancing problem clearly anyway, Recluse gets fucked in 90% of games if you don't get the right spells and magic does pathetic damage even accounting for range considering the archer dude at level 1 with base weapon outdamages any Recluse that doesn't get literally perfect drops on a perfectly planned run.
Still I'm having fun playing as the cute girls

No. Raider's rock is just like a heavy attack with enormous range. Wylder's ult can only revive one person if they're close. Executor takes damage while attacking as the Beast.

He doesn't know

Relics can give you access to other elements, and a relic you can just buy immediately gives you instant access to holy.

schizo much?
this is literally the first time I post in a nightreing thread.

I actually don't think it will

I don't know why you would think that since every souls game and AC6 got balanced to be easier post-release.

well sorry, just so similar

No way in hell they don’t nerf the shit out of the bosses. Same shitters who got Radahn nerfed but even more of them now

so all bad posts and comments must be coming from the same guy, got it.
And these people are the ones calling the game good...

Im playing solo, I dont have time to kill any harder bosses before the fog takes over. I get a purple gaol key to unlock a Crucible knight fight and then the fogs just fucks it. also if you drag the boss too far away its position just resets. its so shit

Im playing solo too and yeah, it’s not even the difficulty that fucks you, it’s how much more time everything needs to beat

also:

get NPC companion in the „tutorial“

don’t get one when you’re playing the actual game alone

What in the fuck is this shit ?

i think the game is dogshit too. guess im a same fag darn it!

Tell me more because I literally don't know

Skill issue

DD 2 was giga shit man who are you trying to fool

Gestures and prattling pates don't really work for the pace of the game since you need to be right next to and looking at the person doing it and everyone is constantly zipping around at torrent speed.
It'd be nice if they added like a ping or a text message when you gesture so that you could actually use them to communicate with people who aren't standing still right next to you.

we knew

almost as if people don't follow the news about an unreleased game very closely and people expect the most basic of things to be included
strange huh

Cannot kill Gaping Jaw for the life of me, magic feels really weak or I'm just retarded ?

evidently a large number of people

Fotm trash

A week 1 nerf has already been confirmed.

Anyone figured out remembrance progression? So far I've been completing each nightlords with a character, but not sure yet if you can just keep doing the same one?

Fpbp

Wait till you see whats in it first.

Lil anon bro gonna miss out AGAIN...

nigga they literally have their weaknesses posted when you go on expedition

How the fuck do I beat the ancient dragon? it has like a trillion HP and really beefed up resistances, are you really supposed to just come across poison gear or just go fuck yourself?

Step 1. Get friends
Step 2. Play with those friends
Step 3. Join a discord to find people who don't suck as much shit as you and your friends
Step 4. Beg them to do it for you

So ? Do you know any poison magic spell retard ?

I looked a bit about the game, why does it look like a cheap janky unity game made by a solo dev?
People praised Elden Ring like the second coming of Jesus, but it feels like all the enemies are just placed onto a random maps and they clip all over the place, animations suck ass and looks so cheap?

Step 1. Get friends

H-how ;_;

you were meant to complete that step 15-20 years ago when you were a child

Not him but none of my friends play souls games, they say its too stressful. I'm shit out of luck

fpbp

well at least you can just queue with randoms and coordinate using your mic.......
oh wait

tfw my last real good friend died of an OD

have the same co-op formula for 16 years

say they are making a co-op game

it has their co-op system

"what the fuck?????? where is my le heckin voice chat!"

it's not the same co-op system
but nice strawman

its literally the same formula without the summoning part but pop off

Are we pretending this is dark souls 1 again?

it's literally the same

except it's not the same at all

based retard

semantics, must be very popular mumbai, huh rakesh?

its funny how many low iq retards hear something, then imagine whatever version appeals most to them in their mind, and then get upset when reality doesnt comport to it, I cannot even imagine living my life being that retarded and mad all the time

This game actually managed to solve the carried shitter problem which plagued souls series since forever.
You can't overlevel, you can't just go to point X on the map to get a weapon which will play the game for you, you can't get carried by minmaxed faggot that easily because he has to level together with you.

Unironically, it's the most honest souls game.

retard

Spells exist, therefore it can never be considered ethical.

the spellcaster is unironically the hardest character to play

My only complaint is the price of the game. This should've been a 20-30 bucks dlc.

make a battle royale

no option for red man because the playerbase is full of pussies

That was actually Sekiro but this has a ton of potential

Wait, is that the Elden Ring there in the sky? Why is it burning like that if it was shattered?

It's not about difficulty, it's about the fact that it exists and isn't a trap for the player. Magic should never be good in a game about medieval knights fighting.

It's a game about magic knights fighting, retard. Nothing about ER is grounded.

it has a boss invasion mechanic
to be honest, if I could invade, I could sabotage the run 98%
saying that as a big bad red man myself

hmm, but they could stop the time and create an arena when you invade though, so you have to fight properly... but it's still 90% for the run end even in 1v3, because invaders got conditioned to fighting against OP ganks already.

it's just too brutal for the shitters, because they can't even traverse the map yet, but a nice idea for the "hard" mode for people who beat at least a couple of bosses already

It's not even that hard if you have two good players taking aggro. It's the definition of a carried class.

fpbp

ER

medieval knights fighting

Only took like 10 attempts but finally pulled my shit together to beat the dog. Maybe should have gone online first to get better gems but ehh it worked out once I got a heal on guard gem to stave away the chip damage. That said what the hell is the answer when the dogs split up? Had no choice but to save ult when I could to tank through it but man its rough. Also looked at records of winners how bloody inefficient am I that I only managed to hit 10(almost 11 but off by 10k) and then I see people winning at level 12-13?

Nigger we had this conversation 3 years ago, ER is higher fantasy than Dark Souls.

dex build: teleports behind u and does a judgment slash

str build: rips open the earth itself barehanded

I'm having fun. Playing with randoms is either intense when you're with people who are good or hilarious when you're with a bunch of hopeless retards

just realised why solo support is so shit...
From want people to beg their friends buy it for better sales numbers in the launch window. then a week or two later, they swoop in and allow you to summon spirits in place of missing players.

absolutely devious but it will happen, there's no way they didn't know the experience sucks otherwse

Play in a party.

There isn't any space for PVP if the formula wants to change and grow and it's been long overdue

PvP isn't happening. Not only does it not make sense with the gameplay loop, From has been consistently gutting invasions since DaS2.

They absolutely should add an optional arena mode where you can duke it out with strangers, or even a full on pvp mode with no bosses, just small mobs and looting.

fpbp multiplayer rollslop

My autism compels me to refuse. I'll just treat it like a keep myself safe until they merge back phase then

i dont have friends

That's a you problem

does the pirated version work with online play?

On a side note the executioner is fun even though I'm trash. It's probably dumb for me to stick to the damn cursed sword in boss fights but it works somehow. Actually the amount of shit that it can parry is funny like what do you mean I can parry catch flame, ground explosions, and judgement cut. It's such a rush when I block the boss' biggest attack. It also taking barely any stamina to swing helps too I guess, just need to not get greedy and not get locked into an animation when I need to block or dodge.

oh look another paid shill thread

I've gotten him down to 5% before I died a few times now. I always get fucked up by an off screen dog shooting fire while they're split. I haven't managed to get higher than level 9 so far.

Yeah that phase is nasty. Moment I see it I just run as far as I can sometimes one of the dogs gets split up but otherwise it feels like trying to endure until it stops. As for levels my current benchmarks are 4-5 by 1st night(mainly just hitting camps, buying the first rez and grabbing an estus shrine) so 6 by night end, 8-9 by 2nd night(tackle wandering mid-level bosses like black knife assassin or evergaol or the stronger mobs in castle) and that puts me at 10 close to 11 for the final boss. honestly not even sure I'd take the bonus stats from level 11 over another rez from the merchant and some other goodies.

Refunded. I'm sure its really fun with two other friends but everyone I know who is into these sorts of games are on consoles so I was stuck playing with randoms. No crossplay in 2025 is so insanely cringe, but what else can you expect from Fromslop these days

Why do half the randoms I get insist on fighting the black bird thing at lv 1 getting one shot over and over

youtu.be/5ICZlZnhj6E?si=wieov8AX7CPdTElf

I'm amazed to see so many people not able relealise beforehand the pile of trash they are about to play,

I feel like it needs 5 more minutes before each wave of closing in. Like you can explore for a bit but say goodbye to doing a cave since you won't have enough time to explore even half of it.

comport

i have never heard this word spoken nor seen this word in any literature, yet here it is existing

Somebody chose Raider

I've only played Raider

Pick Duchess

End up getting early Black Knife

Multiple stacks of improved dodge

We actually managed to win [it's my first win]

Duchess is absurdly strong lol. So cool.

You WILL fight the death bird and die

Wait... how do I do a remembrance? Do I just matchmake while there's cum on my screen?

Yes actually. Was a bit confusing for a second.

Weird. Thanks.

Basically go to the journal.

do remembrance

then queue up inside the remembrance after you've obtained your objective.

Also you don't have to "win". So even if you get your objective done and fail, it still counts.
I think thats why some people just sprint off to weird locations by themselves if you queue with random players sometimes. You can have an objective that looks like the middle of no where to other people, and they can't see the objective icon on the map like you can.

bought it because I always do the opposite of what Anon Babbleermin says. See you in an hour

It's Monster Hunter done right.

filtered

But is it worth 40 bucks?

it just stays at 1/3 for me

I'm now accepting concessions and apologies from those that doubted me. there is a parallel world in nightreign. but someone has to find it first...or else "this world" will end, just like nightreign says in pic related

"that world" is the parallel world of nightreign. Are you just going to wait for dataminers to claim erronousely once again that there's cut content in the game, and blow it off until the next game releases (Duskbloods) and this nightmare is repeated?

Someone has to do it. It must end with Nightreign.

You heard the confirmation from Bandai Namco the second they used EVANescence in the game's launch trailer. Take it all the way.

Nightreign is a is happening in a chrono collapse type scenario. Timelines and worlds are mixing together and interacting. A bunch of warriors from different times [Duchess is from a VERY advanced timeline for example with her time magic watch] fighting endless amounts of times against endless foes. The result at the end is that the Night King is repelled but inside this little Night Crisis thing there's nearly infinite amounts of time and combat taking place.

You're forgetting it has the name "elden ring" in the title you dishonest faggot

Multiplayer has always been the worst part of souls game so I have 0 interest in this

A Black woman is speaking. Listen and learn.

most of the posts in these threads must be ai generated

I like it but my god people are bad

So is the story related to the main game in any way? Does this take place in the past? In the future?

Love blasting bosses with Holy/Fire/Lightning cocktails, too bad you need 1/100 rng to get the drops

It can take some time I noticed in those because it has to make sure you have the active objective. Only one "objective" can be active at a hunt per time, so its basically looking for others who dont have one they are focusing on. Probably narrows the pool a bit.

Or if you're playing with others with elemental infusions watching them fuck up your draw by hitting it right as you start, so I get a cool holy holy fire combo

FROM’s new target audience is mixed race Latinx American teenagers. All games will be similarly sloppy from here on out. You have been warned

The binding of Isaac souls

Slop.

Y-yeah I mean, 65% of consumers say they like it, that's s-still the majority, so...

I've only played with 3 friends and Nightreign feels worse to play than Seemless co-op so far. It's like a bad ER mod that's sold as a premium kusoge.

Alternate timeline. The Shattering caused a fissure in the world to emerge, out which sprung the Nightlord, who sought to bring the land itself to ruin with the Night Rain. A few chosen heroes rose up to hold back the Night, the Nightfarers. They appeared through time and space, only united via a common will. You explore and pillage Limveld, reminiscent of Limgrave, to boost your own power before facing the Nightlord.

That's about it.

Asmon doesn't like it. That was the final nail

Don't kys

I love how Anon Babble is acting like From was some masterclass dev and not like every game they've launched has been a sloppy mess that takes months of patches to fix.

The worst part about this shit is that they didn't even port over old assets from DS games. It's straight up just ER with a few new bosses.

i love how you just spam the same pictures in every thread and dont even change the file names. fuckin faggot sharteen

How much longevity/replay value does Nightreign have for a solo player?

the fact that piggy paying fans still cant let this company to die
also how the fuck is this a roguelike lmao??????? if fromsoft wants to survive for the long term then switch to immersive sims and drop the souls like faggotry

Watch me install SotFS and get your ultimate outfit for free just for starting the game and playing a better game on top of it
You retard

post a video of you completing a run with two randos while playing that bitch

you wont

Schizo hours I guess.

its a good one, keep it in your back pocket for when you want to sound smarter than other people

website is nothing but lonely weebs jerking off with eachother and schizos that think they can change reality by spamming on the site with barley any real posters

why does this place even exist anymore?

Reminder that you still haven't played AC6 when it's FromSoft's best game in years.
If you're not happy with all these MP focused games then perhaps this is a good time to get to it. Unlike souls it's actually worth doing NG+/++ in AC6 so that's a ton of SP content.

AC6

FA was better

so we are really pretending that fromsoft games are not peak reddit?
its the designated shitter game where they can feel like they are good at vidya because they learned boss pattern

when its cheap i'll buy it

I just got Nightreign because EVERYONE and their mother is playing it and wanted to see what it was all about. I missed most info about it, because my prediction was that it was going to be nothing more than a quick cashgrab so I've been ignoring it, same as with Duskbloods.

I've got to say, though, it's so much fucking WORSE than I thought it would be. This is quite possibly the stupidest fucking concept to ever exist in a video game.

This utter piece of shit is an actual PvE battle royale with no communication features whatsoever. No voice or text chat, not even preset messages to send out to your retarded teammates. And it's all neatly wrapped up in the most shameless asset flip I've ever seen, and with the same slow as molasses combat as usual. FromSoft has officially a hit a new low, but more than that, their entire fanbase and the consumer culture surrounding it.

I'm serious when I say this is slop of apocalyptic proportions. I genuinely cannot fucking believe people are loving this turd. This is like if one those meme games like Cuck Simulator suddenly gained mainstream status and were hailed as a masterpiece. A literal fucking cult, that's what FromSoft worshippers have become.

fromsoftware could literally just "release" elden ring again with 0 changes and it would sell 2 million copies

Good post

I was a fan of the concept but the game feels so embarrassingly lazy. Why am I fighting a tree sentinel at night instead of an interesting boss? Why am I fighting a fucking tibia mariner?

possibly the stupidest fucking concept to ever exist in a video game

It's an entire genre though.

Who brings a goddamn dragon as their opening act

Fucking nameless king of course

Died since I was still a bit shock at that, but I'm glad that once the tutorial dogs are dead there's at least some variety in the night bosses

This is the first time I've been back here since it went down and I'm a boogman that's been posting in every thread somehow.
It's a truly unique place.

Is there a formula yet for determining the amount of time before the shitposters get bored of spamming the threads of a new game and the actual players are consistently posting? Maybe the metascore or how hyped the game/studio is can be a variable in the formula somehow?

Or is it more like a solid number (1.5 weeks)?

Seamless Co-op is out for duos

Nightreign is genuinely shit so it's never going to happen. Go to Anon Babble for your hugbox

The formula it to go somewhere else. No really, just go talk about it somewhere else.

It's actually mixed, anon. Like you.

Are people discovering what a rouge-like is or something?

Anons is there a discord that we are organizing on? I'm getting kinda tired of monitoring all the threads on Anon Babble telling others that the game is bad. There has to be a more efficient way to fight this war.

the only form of in-game communication is map waypoints
there at least needs to be some kind of radial menu or something, it's literally impossible to communicate with your team during a boss fight

I'm not from any discord. I just genuinely think this is a shit game.

Same. This game is so garbage I will spend hours in this thread telling everyone else that. I refuse to play this shit.

I didn't even comment on the quality of the game you seething retard.

a game about medieval knights fighting

not a single souls game has been about this, definitely not this one

There are probably several dozen people in this thread who share my opinion.

DS1 literally had havelflipping, it's the same anime shit, always has been.

Alright, thats three down.

Just four more to go. Oh by the way, I hate bird niggers so much its unreal.

Every single one that teams with me can't pull aggro for shit and are all absolutely retarded.

having the same opinion as a bunch of teenagers (ie, most of Anon Babble) is not a good thing

unintended glitch that got fixed in a patch

several dozen people in this thread

In general honestly. I just want to discuss and play vidya with some bros, but its become nearly impossible on here

Night 1

Dukes Dear Freyja turns up

We inevitably wipe because the thing's HP is too big and we didn't bring any bleed/frost/poison/rot

Kill yourself, shill. Suck a shotgun barrel

several dozen people in this thread who share my opinion.

and several thousand people think taylor swift is an inspiration. wtf is this midwit argument?

If Anon Babble stated that 1+1=2 you would reflexively state 1+1=3 because you're a slave
A shit game (Nightreign) is shit regardless of who says it's shit

Asmon is playing again

but its become nearly impossible on here.

Tell me about it. I really don't understand why I still come to this board. The place is so clearly infested with indian spammers and discord children. That you can't even get video game discussion started at all.

The only reason the place is still worth it is the occasional steam next fest thread and the furfag threads.

Go to Anon Babble or reddit for a hugbox. I'm not ragebaiting, this is genuine advice. You'll have a better time at those places

i am gaming and having fun and you can't explain why the game is bad, you just say "it's shit" over and over
by this i can just assume you don't enjoy souls gameplay which makes me wonder why you enter souls threads except to deliberately shit them up

I hear you brother. Together we will take down ***reign and will triumph!

if they don't add more free content (not just the usual balance and fixes patches) then it will cement fromsoft as another greedy dev imo
this "game" could have been another $20 ER dlc
no man's sky received countless free updates to bring it up to people's expectations years after release, fromsoft is a much bigger studio than hello games so they can do it without it hurting their pockets

I'm in the global minority as a Nightreign hater, so you're not going to beat me on that front

That cum tastes good don't it faggot? Keep slurping Miyazaki's sloppy seconds.

You WILL talk about American politics. You WILL vote the way we want you to. You WILL join us in this culture war whether you like it or not.

I'm in the global minority

yes we all know. you are a seething chink

Sorry pal. I'm just here for the Video Games.

I loved Dark Souls 1 and rationale for dislking Nightreign has been shared throughout the thread. In any case you will never stop people from not liking something you like. You should have learnt this as a child

Do you think they'll use Linkin Park for Dusk Bloods

ESL reading comprehension

Is anyone else getting no connections with randoms during specific over world cycles?

My overworld weather/cycle is mountain and I can't get connected to any randoms.

It's not terrible, but its not going to scratch that itch for people who want a proper story experience.

I have seen no one use Recluse except when I do it

Is this the tranny pick?

RAIDERBROS WHERE WE AT
It's funny that we are past the point where polniggers lost the plot in pretending to care about videogames while spreading their bullshit. In the start they tried but now it's obvious that they aren't here for videogames.

Third worlders like yourself ruined this board. Understand that

they aren't here for video games.

They never were. They were just as insufferable in the 2016-2018 years, too. When every other thread was just a off-topic pol rage bait thread not even attempting to be related to video games.

The moderation staff has miraculously managed to get even worse by then and has just given up on caring.

How do I make the revenant work? Do I really just need to sit in the back sucking my buddies off?

Guys, the Nightreign general is up at Anon Babble. Good, positive discussion is being had. Let's move it there

Tried to "main" raider as a way to learn the game

Get to Gladius several times but we always wipe

later on somebody else picks Raider and I already did a double Raider run

pick Duchess instead

This happens

I'll use both now. Nice to have alternates.

DO
YOUR
STORY
QUESTS

How? Do I just keep doing runs until something shows up?

Qrd?

I would but there's no documentation on how to do the bird guys quest chain for his outfit.

each win with a character advances their story in the Journal

every so often there will be a "remembrance" which is a short story bit where you talk to the other characters

get a specific objective you need to complete while in the remembrance

the guardian's quest is one of the easier ones, you have to kill a guardian golem and bring back the stake it drops, the relic is pic related and does i think Wylder's one gives him a flame buff whenever he uses his grapple shot, I saw it in the network test

Uhhh, it really isn't. It's literal asset flip kusoge

Go the book and activbate Remembrance mode. >Do the objectives until they give you a mission of some kind that isn't just talking to NPCs

Matchmake with as many nightlords selected as possible for widest matching

Check map for special objective marker if there is one

Complete objective

At this point even if the run fails you're good to go and can return back after you win or lose and do some more objectives and talking around the RTH. Eventually a portal will open and you take it to return to normal mode, completing the remembrance.

I just did Duchess' first one. Got a relic that makes her restage attack stronger AND makes my elemental affinities stronger. All I had to do is kill some red phantom "Guardians Of the Dew" at the objective on my map

Guardian + Executor + BLACKED mage bitch is the ideal trio.

Executor can solo bosses I've seen if he can apply enough bleed and guardian can just hold aggro with a bow.

nah, Guardian tank + Wylder stagger + Duchess support

I think Raider might get something that lets him self-revive. I've seen it before where Raider just fuckin' STANDS THE FUCK UP somehow.

I got bored and refunded

i might do the same. only played an hour yesterday and had no desire to play at all today.

As a bird player I find aggro nearly impossible to keep if you have two ranged allies. The way aggro works is quite simple but its easy to see the issue:

1. The boss is in a neutral status and targets a player, either the last one who damaged it (high priority) or the closest player (low priority).
2. The boss attacks that player, somewhere between 3 or 4 attacks, and it will not target another player regardless of distance or taking damage. Other players can confidently attack the boss without fear of drawing aggro during this time.
3. The boss enters the neutral status again. This doesn't have an animation or any obvious tell. They then pick a target and repeat the cycle.

And thats it. As a result, if you can keep a constant stream of small damage hits on a boss, then you will pull aggro without issue because you are hitting them first during every neutral reset. A melee "tank" will be hard pressed to anticipate the neutral reset and land a hit before two ranged niggas who are constantly pelting the boss with spells or arrows.

The only exception to this is when a boss places a red lock on marker onto a player: that player seems to be randomly chosen and they may have the icon on them for only a single attack or for a potentially large number of attacks, depending on the boss.

i was gonna skip this damned game...but the revenant trailer, along with the bring me to life trailer hooked me. i cant resist a spooky doll girl...damn you miyazaki...you siphoned more money from me.

real talk tho, i think the game is a blast. especially if you go in casually and expect nothing. just sit back, pop a drink and play around. friends or no.

I demand more bird men in video games

There's an item that lets you cheat death that anyone can find, maybe he had that.

How the fuck do you avoid Tricephalos' fire groundwave? It's a mile wide lingering hitbox. I've tried rolling, sprinting, dashing, nothing works. And it does 90-100% of your HP.

I can get to him consistently with randoms but keep wiping due to second phase bullshit. Spending 40 min just to try again is retarded.

I feel like bosses shred through Bird Guy's stamina. It also doesn't help that dashing takes a chunk of stamina as well, and there's literally no reason to use regular run. He's really fun to use, but stamina management is punishing in this game

Use a bow as a secondary as a bird. Hang far away and just pepper the boss with arrows until it switches over to you. This works best if you want to take the pressure off of your other ranged team members.

Bird just doesn't have the dps to be on the bosses ass anyhow. He needs to be played as a support character.

Guardian is a jeet

Nobody is shitposting about it

It's hilarious to me.

Guardian is a jeet

Quick rundown?

He has an indian accent

Are you fuckin' deaf? He has a jeet accent. I don't mind because like Garudas are the original birdmen and are Indian but still. Kinda funny there's no SAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRR memes yet

He has a jeet accent

Oh fuck, you're right. RIP. I hope his homeland at least knows the importance of waste management.

Stamina can definitely be rough, but you're making sure to use his special guard stance, right? You enter it by dodging while blocking. Slowly drains stamina over time but reduces stamina consumption on block by a shitload. Getting any kind of bonuses to healing, block or stamina on random items can be huge, so keep a lookout for those random effects even on weapons you don't intend to wield.

Thats not a bad idea, if you cant beat them, join them. I think that would work pretty good especially now that bows are one handed weapons so you can conveniently keep a strong shield equipped.

Tfw take a break for 30 minutes after five rounds with randoms. Think I'm done for the day.

The itch to hop right back on and chip away at the fourth boss comes back.

Shit, I thought this game was supposed to bad.

How is the kernel anti cheat? Isnt is a massive backdoor into your system?

Play 6 hours with friends

They aren't big into souls but beat Elden ring with cheese builds

They gravitate towards range/support characters

We're communicating and choosing our fights well, maxing our flasks and levelling up

Still getting wiped by the 1st boss, usually one down turns into many

Think to myself how hard it must be with randoms them

Play a matchmaking game before bed, just to see

Randos immediately know to gun it for the churches, ping for things along the way and move with purpose

I get an achievement for killing 10 greater enemies in a single run

Don't even have particularly good gear, we just play well and back each other up when wailing on and singling out threats

Absolutely roll nightlord, I don't recall any of us going down even

I thought randoms were supposed to suck?

You enter it by dodging while blocking. Slowly drains stamina over time but reduces stamina consumption on block by a shitload.

Ohhh, I wasn't sure what the point of that move was. Thanks for the advice anon

I thought randoms were supposed to suck?

What are the odds that this game will filter so many people that the playerbase that's left is actually decent players?

I thought randoms were supposed to suck?

As usual for these games, the solo players are high IQ gigachads and the seamless co-op constantly summoning, talking to friends on discord faggots suck at the game.

i wanted to enjoy raider but both his abilities feel like complete shit, and then you run into an enemy who doesnt stay the fuck still and cant hit them. Should I just switch to Wylder?

No. Try to find fist weapons and become HOARAH RAAAAIDERR!!!! WARRRIORRR

I thought randoms were supposed to suck?

Its a souls game, by its nature the solo socially stunted autists are best at the game.

people whining about seamless co-op didn't become a thing until ER and they were mostly newfags.

Here's executioner's 1st relic. With a bit of testing it's about 100 HP and as far as I can tell doesn't scale

tfw I have no friends

Raider is fucking awesome, I ended up spending the rest of the night playing him. Realiate is a great compliment to a bog standard strength build, It lets you be really brazen running into combat with mistimed/greedy attacks. Just dash R2 in, and the second the enemy tries to punish that you reverse it on them and knock em down or interrupt them and keep the carnage going. Along with the massive poise and great blocking you can get in and stay in forever.

Recluse seems kind of ass no? Having to constantly use skill to replenish tiny amount of fp sucks. Just wiped on the fire dog because I ran out of mana and got stuck in a 5 second headscratching animation. Thanks Zaki

, still sits at mixed reviews and had no cultural impact at all

I have played it and I'll criticise it without using Chat GPT for you.

The game is dogshit. It's an asset flip that takes the worst parts of Elden Ring (an already mid game) and expands those into a 30 minute experience. Nobody looks back fondly at all the recycled Erdtree Avatars, Tree Sentinels, and Demi-Human Queens, but those types of encounters are the bulk of the bosses in this trash. Yes, Dancer can show up as a night boss, but so can a fucking Draconic Tree Sentinel with 2 useless adds, or a Revenant. The only well designed bosses are the Nightlords, and you have to slog through 30m of the worst Elden Ring has to offer to even get to them. There's one map based on Limgrave, full of obviously re-used Limgrave assets, and the stuff on the map has almost no variety. The fire outpost camps are always Redmane Knights, the poison ruins are always a stupid Perfumer, frost ruins Ancient Hero of Zamor, etc. The shifting earth, when it shows up, is also always the exact same gameplay loop. Once you've done all 4 once you've done all the "variety" this game has to offer. The inter-match progression of the relics system sucks, most of them are meaningless drivel like "+2 Faith" and the best ones come from the rememberances which limits actual build variety to a single relic slot for most characters. The only other form of progression is working towards the shitty mobile game skins for each character. The game is aimless trash, it fails at being a rougelike, it fails at being an rpg, it fails at being an action game. Sure, it's fun with friends, but so is watching grass grow, and at least that doesn't cost $40.

If quality isn't your concern, just keep asking FromSoft for it and it will automatically sell a billion copies.

FPBP

maybe 1 in every 1000 people know the shortcut

I just type 'em dash' in the search engine and copy paste it. You FromSoft fags legit suffer from brainrot if you've gotten to a point that using em dash is somehow a red flag.

People keep saying there's relics that let Recluse get other elements right out of the gate

Haven't found any of them

Please, just a crumb of miracles.

You know something is wrong when japs post the buying rice would have been a better purchased comment.

Hang on, they took out teabagging?

lol

His poise works with any weapon, not just his unique, slow-ass axe/great weapon moveset. Powerstance a pair of axes, claws, fists, etc. and you can bully most enemies. For bosses just use your skill, and if your skill is down then use shit like endure. Just watch your stamina and HP and heal as needed, you get so many free heals in the overworld that you can chug freely in camps and the like.

rather than regurgitating the talking points of people who've only played pre-release snippets and not experienced the content in full

That would be way more effort than From put into designing this generic slop. It's not that fucking deep.

no need to crouch. Fast game.

They might be referring to those relics that put sacred order on your starting weapon, or make your starting weapon do fire dmg? I think I saw stuff like that in the shop.

All the shitters get filtered out after the first two Nightlords.

Is there not a way to ff? Do I really need to wait until the end of day 1 to intentionally die even if I’m in a party with friends

I was filtered by how shit the whole game was

no it's not but it's also not that bad. it's just... mid af

I did the recluse's first story quest but only got a key item

Nope

then you didn't finish it. It's done when a portal appears that reverts you back to regular mode.

was it mental illness?

If it's shitposters then as soon as a new target comes out. If it's actual butthurt fans then it'll take 5 years at least.

what the fuck were they thinking

That one Overwatch webm where the screen is covered in particle effects

He's pretty aids desu.

They cooked yet another kinotastic boss fight

Target the head, it takes double damage.

bb > das > sekiro > des = ds2 > er > ds3

dont @ me

Maybe but he's spitting straight facts

most obvious samefag

Bosses zanzibarting and instakilling you is already annoying in games where you can restart from the fogwall, but it's especially bad in a game where there's a 40 minute runback
I can't imagine playing this game solo, at least not without practicing with co-op revives first

This one is alright, but Gnoster is kind of retarded if you don’t have a ranged ally and he’s super retarded solo. It’s like this giant beetle that has a moonlight butterfly friend.
Honestly it’s pretty cool it’s just they share a health bar when they really shouldn’t and the butterfly should have less HP because it comes down rarely. And then there’s phase 2 where the butterfly rides the beetle and uses lasers even if you stagger the beetle. It’s kind of weird how they handled solo scaling in this game, it’s 100% there for days 1 and 2 but the nightlords have a ton of HP, which I assume is due to how you can buy a revive stone.

Refunded after 50 minutes, this shit was ASS. Probably because I picked Recluse and that's the jankiest piece of shit character I've ever played in ANY game ever, but still. Also I hate the map controls, it feels fucked with inverted camera (the normal way)

Same. I was like

eh this is alright

after my first two runs, and now I'm just constantly glancing at Discord to see when my boys come online

RB - Y+LT - RB - Y+LT ad infinitum

Who the fuck designed this shit.

they even added a deleveling mechanic for when you get fromsoft'd lol

fuck me there are so many bad ideas in this game

he has been awake, schizoposting nonstop since nightreign came out

I’m saving solo for when I have good artifacts. If you do the character’s quests, you get really good ones. I’ve tried solo some and it’s actually pretty manageable, I’ve even gotten ganked by Morgott while fighting other bosses and won, but those nightlords are durable. And some night 1 and 2 bosses are just “fuck you” tier like one had a wormface that had a constant AoE deathblight proc around it alongside a giant crab, zombies, and big rats, all in that small circle. That one killed me because the wormface is fast and he won’t let off you during his triple grab combo. There was one where it was a tibia mariner and like, 20 skeletons. Not even exaggerated, there were 20. And so I leashed them around while I killed the tibia mariner, who’d summon more skeletons every now and then, and when I killed him he fucking summoned a DEATH RITE BIRD that was also in the fight. But the bird proceeded to do his nuke move and killed some of the skeletons, and then he just chilled in the back doing projectiles every now and then until I won.

Yeah, I just did that fight and it's fucking dumb. Was on Guardian and basically only choice at times is to eat shit because you either guard the scorpion, or try and get away from the satellite laser.

not really. it's boring as fuck.

fpbp

There is zero reason to play melee in this

get this

having fun

manage to beat the first night lord

maybe around 10 runs deep by this point

fighting the same enemies and bosses for the 5th+ time is already getting a little old

by the time I'm 20-30 runs deep I'll be so done with some of these

I can even overlook the "only one map" problem. But the lack of enemy variety is really inexcusable.
The whole point of recycling assets is to let them not have this problem because they have so many enemies made. So wtf

fpbp, lazy game.

I was using Raider and Raider has his skill where you’re supposed to take damage to make it better, and I used it on the laser since it worked on stuff like Morgott’s faith hammer and all that, but the laser just fucked me both during the charge and after cause it lasts so long.

it's elden ring general though

Killed the dog on 8th attempt with randos. Megabonking as Raider really resonates with me.

sorry for tarrying anon

Seeing challenge runners breeze through the game gave me the wrong kind of condifence in soloing the bosses, hell half the time I don't even make it to night 3.

That's not mentioned at all on the store page.

Previous dark souls games had voice chat newfag

Raider without the helmet on from his remembrance

Holy shit, I kneel Michael.

fpbp

spsbp

from 1.4 million to just 40k in less than 3 months

Holy fuck that is nothing to be proud of

Yeah I kinda wish the Poi enemies had more variety but at least the bosses in night 1 and 2 change after you beat the dog. That said opening an evergoal in unleashing a half HP godskin noble has just reminded me that godskin duo is probably a night boss and my asshole clenched again

duo is way more manageable on night 2
you fight one until he's like 66% and then he summons the other
at that point u can just burst the first and kill him or mostly kill him by the time the other is out
especially because u have 2 other dudes with you

I wonder what the boss pool is like. 20 Runs in and so far it's been

Night 1

Demi-human duo
Bell-bearing hunter
2x night cav
royal revenant
grafted scion
Smelter demon
Gaping dragon

Night 2

Morgott
Tree sentinel + friends
Niall + banished knight duo
Nameless king
Fallingstar beast

team doing really well during day 1 and 2

we choke on day 3

It hurts. I was even carrying for once

No one cares

I cared. I asked.

Just kidding, I don't care.

Who are you talking to? Are you a bot?

I love this. Wishing you all the best.

It's monster hunter for fortnite zoomers

So what's the point of Executor's skills?

Deflection is useful for defence but you do no fucking damage, even with "revealed" blade. Best use case is to have a dagger, get a stance break by deflecting and then switch back and shank'em.

Transformation is cool but seems impossible to pilot precisely, damage is also meh. Night lords will roll you if you try to trade.

Who are you talking to?

Darksouls > Darksouls 2 > Demons (is bad) > Dark 3 (I dropped the series here because of how bad it is)
Fact
Elden apparently plays like 3 so its ass

truth firebomb

the beast skill is pretty clutch, high health and good damage, also relatively low cooldown timer. the parry can serve as a tanking tool I guess. when you have agro you stand your ground and parry it up while others do damage.

Fake bot discussion

please stop talking about the game

They even added a deleveling mechanic for when you get fromsoft'd lol

You think thats bad? Lmao, you aint seen nothing yet.

Once you beat the third boss random de-leveling clouds begins to spawn around you and if your inside the cloud is rapes your levels. I lost four levels in one run alone because of them. And you can get ganked by AI invader teams mid boss battle.

There is absolutely no way the average from shitter will be able to get through this game. I actually commend them for it.

eh ill probably refund the game before i even see any of the non-asset flip shit lol

It's so obviously fake. We can see right through it

Have most people made it past the dog yet?

random de-leveling clouds begins to spawn around you and if your inside the cloud is rapes your levels.

Nice larp faggot.

Most people have refunded

No

I've beaten three of the bosses so far, and the overworld becomes increasingly more and more difficult. I just did a run that got the floating jellyfish boss down to 1/4 health. But I'm tired and need to try again tomorrow.

Oh yeah, and what said isn't bullshit.

There are random level raping clouds that spawn in the overworld as you fight world bosses that will rape your levels. I lost 5 in one run before.

Nah. I'm having trouble with matchmaking atm after it.

Challenge runners are faggots, but they are good at vidya, their job depends on it after all.

There is a tibia mariner, freja and das3 dancer.

OP btfo

Anyone want to play
I want some friends to run games with

it's actually good

/thread

Asmon was going to quit DS1 until mcconnell told him about the zweihander

Imagine if they just dropped this out of nowhere as a fun little free minigame/love letter to the players that purchased the DLC with no trailers or announcements leading up to it. People would have lost their minds over it even if it's just a mediocre asset flip, would've increased their DLC sales by a huge amount too. Probably would have been pretty newsworthy since devs doing that kind of stuff is unheard. Instead it's a standalone $40 game so it being an asset flip feels like a shitty cash grab.

Between this and that other PvP centric game, FromSoft are finally in the mode of 'maximizing profits'. I'm just baffled how they're shitting out two of the most blatant cash grabs I've ever fucking seen, and that there are worshippers actually onboard with it, going as far as buying a console with paid online from a company that currently has a terrible reputation.

Playing every new FromSoft game is like collecting Funko Pops now. No one could have possibly imagined this outcome.

Just killed it for the first time.

It's not Elden Ring, It's a new game called Elden Ring

Ah to be such a child that you don't understand what a series is yet.

You ain't seen nuffin yet son. Just wait until diarrhearain passes a few days.

Started this up with a friend as soon as I got home from work, we beat the dog on the first try though i'm pretty sure we got carried.
Every single game afterwards has been a defeat, we got the second boss down to a little passed halfway before it does some gravity shit and two people die from it. We did the ice dragon thing just to see it and didn't get passed 3/4 health.
This shit is gonna get old so quick.

servers are FUCKED
cant connect to anyone
this shit better be fixed by tomorrow morning

Is co op seamless or does it work like it does in elden ring?

This is retarded because the ring of death/storm or whatever it's called makes no sense in a PvE only context. In PvP battle royale, most players will tend to flee to the safe zone immediately, so staying outside of the safe zone at least gives you a vantage point. In Nightreign that shit doesn't offer you any tactical advantage whatsoever. It's just aimlessly copying a fucking trend.

It urges you to loot. It also forces players that are combing the map independently to group up for bosses.

I like it but I'd have more fun if my friends got it because randoms are a bit retarded. This game made me realize I need more friends that want to play shit together instead of just friends.

the storm in this game is to change what progression options you've got and make you make those decisions on the fly

I literally just fought the gaping dragon through, and all the nightlords are new bosses. Also this type of game lends itself really well to new playable character types and targeted nightlords to be drip fed over time. We still don't have a raw faith character.

I know what the point of it IS, what I'm saying is that extra layer of depth fundamentally doesn't exist in PvE battle royale. They could have done this a ton of different ways. As mid Lords of the Fallen might be, the umbral dimension is at least a neat concept. The longer you spend in that mode, the harder the enemies will become and better the rewards will be. The idea for a rogue-like Souls with random loot sounds amazing, but a goddamn battle royale just isn't it.

Too bad that whatever rationale you develop for your decisions goes right out of the window because you can't communicate with your teammates besides pinging locations.

friendly reminder, if you used:

Wylder
Raider
Ironeye
Duchess
Executor

you did NOT beat the game

Guardian chad here reminding everyone to STOP MOVING THE FUCK AWAY WHEN I DIVE!

i know it so it's actually super common

no i don't care that in this thread of almost 500 posts no one else has used it

fuck off jeet you were exposed

jeets were the creatures hired to shill Nightgunk

i don't care if he was shilling or hating
he was exposed

If you are making a dedicated co-op game, people will expect basic features to be added. Why are we OK aiding the rise of shit like discord? Fuck you.

I was middling on it first but after playing it for a while it has really grown on me, outside of the matchmaking being weird and missing voice/text chat the game is really good, at least if you manage to get a good team going.

The largest problems IMO are all just related to the lack of content in the game and it being needlessly obscure with information, it desperately needs more maps, bosses and RNG stuff, some additions to the systems would also be really cool like allowing players to pick any grey item from the codex and spawn with it at the beginning of the map, essentially making load outs of both relics and weapons. They should also add the stat weights of each character to the item menu so that you can see exactly how your character levels up to make it easier to understand what you might want to do and why, a night timer would also be nice and they could essentially just copy/paste the day/night wheel from ER and place it in the lower right corner so that people know exactly how much time they have left before the ring starts shrinking.

It would also be neat if they added a PvEvP mode that works like a FFA, 3v3 or 2v2v2, they could go the Kirby Air ride route of making each player/team run around the map without a circle just to try to get as powerful as possible and then replace the nightlord boss with a PvP brawl or they could just copy fortnight.

The pvp game would have also been really good to add to Elden Ring as some sort of bonus content from a 2nd DLC. Making it it's own game that's also exclusive to one console is just retarded. I'm not the hugest fan of ER but they should have kept adding more to the base game. Idk why games are so afraid to have several different kinds of modes in one setting nowadays.
