Nightreign - sucks

[Sensei]

Solid copyright of the previous parts of the franchise. I'm sure it's for the price of a new game. Okay, it would be fan mods, but the official boss game from other series is bad. The feeling of a dumpster. Moreover, there are no well-thought-out locations in the ring.
Update from 2025. A demo version of the game has been released. Has anyone changed their opinion about the game?

You should really go read some articles about what Nightreign is. The game is really isn't like elden ring or a traditional souls-like.

It borrows core mechanics and some other stuff but the overall gameplay flow is completely different. It's closer to a roguelike in that if you fail or complete the run you go back to start. The world, enemies and bosses you fight also get shuffled. It's also tuned for 3 player coop.

Will it be good or not? I dunno. There aren't any videos of raw gameplay yet. It's definitely different though. WAY different than anything else fromsoft has done before.

Thank you for you well thought out and informed opinion about the entire gameplay loop and lore dump of a 3 minute trailer.

at least you didn't call it a cashgrab

i say this because it's common among doomposting

and what company doesn't want to make money off their game?

I completely agree with you. However, you must agree that selling the same thing 3 or more times is a bad practice. If I want to fight old mobs, I'll just open, for example, dark souls 3 and that's it. The next step is a remaster of the Elden ring, which will include all the DLCs, at triple the price.

it's not about whether or not companies want to make money off their games, it's about how much effort was put into the game and in Nightreign's case it looks like very minimal effort

that's why people call things cashgrabs

I feel like the roguelike elements will make it require more team work than what a soullike would. I hope it pops off. The only other rogue like game I've played is Risk of Rain 2 and I've never been able to get a good multiplayer match since the first DLC.

FromSoft is a bit of a unique developer. AAA games, but still willing to experiment. I believe what you're looking at is an trial, the results of which will be used in another awesome game. For example, they had a mini open world in DS3 (Ringed City).

People are griping about the online component of Soulsborne since forever, could be that with this game they're taking a good look at potential modifications and improvements.

lmao load of assumptions made after just watching a trailer that tells us barely anything, look at it like this, we aren't gonna get another proper fromsoft game for at least 10-15 years, take what you can get or leave it, i know i'm not gonna buy it already because there was a giant burning wall ala battle royale in there, wether it's a timer or otherwise i don't care.

They've been reusing assets since day 1. Where have you been?
Attack animations for hollows has been pretty much the same this whole time.
