So who wanna be up nighting they reigns with me when it releases
just saw gameplay of nightreign and now im even more upset that people refuse to call this a BR. look guys its ok to call it a br it doesnt make it bad. its allowed to steal everything from fortnight and make its own thing. stop copeing and call it for what it is though
Are teams of 3 fighting it out?
No
it has 9 out of 10 features you see in all BRs and cuz its missing out on pvp, which fornite you can just play against bots, everyone says nah man
Id argue it's closer to a rougelite than a BR then
people need to use their eye balls
I mean
Each run you start with bare essentials
You find upgrades to survive and try to make it to the end
ok cool what progress carries over?
Upon either winning or losing you restart the cycle
Skins
lol get outta here
I mean I'm not wrong
Compound giving big "guy who has only seen boss baby vibes"
say what you want im sure its going to be a fine game but its going to spawn a sub genre of pve br
its just low key annoying that the map is the same, its laid out the same, the gameplay loop is the same, the spawning in is the same, the team size is the same, the abilities are the same as apex legends, the only difference is how you get victory royale and that the players are just bot npcs
Real
Compound, now that I know this isn't a bit. How on earth is the gameplay loop the same as a br
Wha
Because the end goal and gameplay is 100% different
Battle Royales ask you to eliminate all other players
by doing what
see now you are being disingenuous on purpose
you go in on a map, you loot the map, for gear, you get better gear then others to win
NR you fly in on the map, you loot the map, you fight a pvp boss
its the same loop
Those are notably different loops
alright im just going to stop. the hoops people will jump through so they dont have to admit they wanna play and enjoy a pve based BR game is actually insane
Because if it's pve it's not a br
that is stupid
By your exact logic poe2 endgane is a br
no it is not. you are not flying in, you are not getting gear for just that run
You're teleporting in sorry
But you loot the map, and then fight a boss
That's the exact same loop you outlined
thats called risk of rain
do you call risk of rain battle royale
just stop
im curious if you consider it a battle royale
I'm pretty sure it's the circle
im done with the convo. ill never bring it up again till a few years down the line when this spawns a sub genre of game and people call it fucking BR-lites. its just going to be funny when they release an update that allows 4 teams of 3 on a single map and they can fight each other but the goal is to be the first to kill the map boss and people will still fucking refuse to call it a BR
You are, you're nuts
do not call this a rogue lite
unless im missing something it is not a rogue lite
It's literally Elden Ring Hades
As sloth pointed out

Its ror
what progress carries over? whats the run currency and whats the game currency for future upgrades? what special abilities do you unlock for jsut that run?
Runes ig
Rougelites do tho iirc
Yeah so id imagine there's some carry over
Weapons with different WA
People haven't played it yet so it's kind of a wait and see
What the FUCK
And iirc, yes there is permanent character progression
This is slander
All hail the pickle king 

And I'm all of them
I'm all the jackasses in a trenchcoat
im willing to concede that its a rogue lite but it NEEDS these core features
- randomized map. and i dont mean its a random map i mean the entire thing has to be different everytime you jump in. different sites of grace locations and what not
- it needs power or builds thats unique to that run and changes how you play from run to run. i would not consider getting different spells as different powers since in elden ring they are used the same way. i would concede weapon arts but only if theres other stuff you can build on top of them
- it needs some form of progression that carries over from run to run. permanent upgrades. if items can carry over then its a pve extraction shooter similar hunt showdown
roguelikes dont need to carry over progression
roguelites tend to do that though
but roguelikes are supposed to be Like Rogue
which did not have progress that carried over
to be a roguelite you simply need to have to begin from the beginning upon death, it may have something that carries over inbetween but it doesnt need to
a roguelike specifically doesnt have things carry over
yes i know i assumed when zyx called it a rogue like he meant rogue lite
I mean considering how brutal souls like are if imagine they'd lean closer to rougelikes
you just dont know what a roguelike is do you
these arent necessary things for a roguelike
are you kidding me?
they're good things for a roguelike to have
but they arent genre defining
also it is a randomized map each time anyways
they said that already
and when it comes to "its a battle royale" i think the "lots of people duke it out pvp style" is like The Defining thing that you cant have a battle royale without
battle royale is kinda specifically a pvp genre
yeah
if its not pvp then its not battle royale thats just how it works
just like how if it has progress that carries over, its not a roguelike its a roguelite
cool story bro
the circle getting smaller is an aspect commonly seen in BRs but its also just a way of directing/restricting players, doesnt make a game a BR by itself
yeah it brings to mind battle royales but its more of a correlation =/= causation type thing
yah
they both have the shrinking circle to do the same job
yeah
not because they're copying eachother
why dont you just leave, telling me i dont know the difference between a rogue lite and rogue like then saying some other dumb ass shit
no reason to give this guy's words a second glance
we can still talk tho
i think roguelikes are cool but they're so rare
i cant think of a single true no permanent progress roguelike
oh well devil daggers actuall
and this clown says i dont know the difference between the genre and he cant name one where my library has 3 and ive beaten 2
and what 3 games are those
thought you blocked me, dungeon of dredmor, cogmind, cave of qud
never talked about blocking you
interesting never heard of those games
well caves of qud i have but idk anything about ot
dungeon of dredmor is old as hell and found it through totalbiscuit, cogmind is still in early access
@pure valley watched a 2 hour review of the game and i concede. i was under the impression that it was elden ring abilities and weapons but it has proper build abilities and has metaprogression through relics
Im not reading all mesages on my phone @pure valley is elden ring a visual novel with datin sim elements yes or no?
i think it is
I suspected it
im gonna say yes
Makes sense
Bit of a hot take but i dont think that the 5 hour long make out scene between the tarnished ans the frenzied flame was vital to the plot but what do i know, right?
I thoguht nightreigh is gonna be mid, but looking at gameplay. Very solid.
nightreign seems peak
havent been able to do an expedition yet
but the hub is sick
is nightreign standalone?
its an entirely different game yes
this is a roguelike spinoff
i havent gotten to do much in the playtest but like
this pretty much seems exactly like "elden ring if it was a roguelike"
its not letting me play tho
every time i try, it kicks me out
servers are not made well yet methinks
I was confused when I couldn't see it on the ER page on steam
elden ring is more of uhhh
more of the mainline series title i guess?
if they make an elden ring 2
kinda strange they made a spinoff before they even made the main series
okay now the servers undergoing maintanence so i do believe other people had the problem
i looked at the elden ring tiwtter and people are so impatient in the replies to the tweet that they're doing maintanence
like dude they have to troubleshoot an entire server issue
its not gonna take 10 mins
yeah theres only 30 minutes left in the playtest
im just uh
going to bed
hoping they fix it before the next one
YEAHHHHH
i didnt sleep
nightreign playtest took priority
but it didnt work 💔
well i probably would have been sleeping before now
maybe at 3 am
i got to see the hub area at least and its quite cool
didnt even get in once lol
spent like 2 hours waiting and by that point i knew they weren't fixing the network issues today
me neither
im hoping they add another playtest period
i'd say it's a 50/50 chance they do
it'd be very easy for them to just say "welp that's what the test is for" and not bother
I take Ainrun and Distortion2 through our first match in the Elden Ring NIGHTREIGN Network Test. We woke up bright and early for this!
Managed to sneak in a couple games in the last hour
how far'd you get
at least you got past day 1
it took me until my very last run to beat day 1
and on that run i went all the way to day 3 and died to the night lord when it had like an 10th of its health left
Tbf I probably coulda gone further but the servers shut down :(
day 2 is super tough but i had more oppurtunity to gear up for it
so it worked out
i was also kinda carried by the mage and duchess on my team
I got jumpscared by || Morgott || mid fight with a dragon
the mage could easily res anyone just with some DOT spells they had
Pretty bs of him but funny nonetheless
||mid fight with 2 heroes of zamor for me||
i did not expect it at all
I was solo at that point too, the servers were shutting down and I was just running around solo trying to do as much as I could lol
Other two guys disconnected
didnt know that was possible
It was around when fromsoft were meant to shut down the servers but I still got to play like an extra 20 mins
I did have someone disconnect mid game on my first run and it was just me and one other guy playing
Funnily erm
|| centipede demon was our day 1 boss but it didn't spawn in and we had to jump out the circle to die lol ||
It was just the boss music and us stuck in the circle, not even a health bar or noises from it, just missing entirely
I almost died laughing because I was so hyped for this beta specifically to fight old bosses in the new engine and the first one I see, doesn't even appear
i got that in my first run
||got demihuman bosses in every single other run||
if you havent noticed, the spawn location determines the boss
(unironically have had an awful time with this game so far because of the technical issues but I gotta stay positive lol)
i dont think theyve implemented a lot of the actual randomization thats supposed to be in the full game
cause there seems to only be two spawn locations and bosses currently
I got those too, really easy boss if you play guardian because of all your AOEs
i dont like guardian really
wylder is the one for me
grappling hook and super flame of the redmanes is awesome
I like it better than Wylder tbh but I'm not big on the bird design lol
very useful in a squad too for the poisebreak, and grappling to someone to rez them
i love the guardian's design
Well I love Wylder's design lol
me too its actually sick
I'm honestly a bit disappointed the Sekiro deflect character isn't in this beta
Also
The controls in this are weird
Not running with Circle/B is so messed up
And your flask being in the top left corner as opposed to on your D-PAD items is weird
yo thats actually sick af
me too
you still can run with the same button as roll
it uses less stamina than the other version
it is
got another
i think i got a really solid route for the map
getting all the healing, fighting tons of bosses and getting tons of runes pretty easy
garbage take the entire point of a battle royale is that multiple teams/players fight in a free for all. thats literally the definition of the word. everything else is just there to facilitate that.
genuinely just the worst take you could have about that entire thing
oh that was 3 days ago mb
Lets not bring this discussion back
time for the final nightreign test
gonna beat a run this time trust
@rancid siren are you participating in this session too
if so, wanna group up for a run
Didn't bother with the final test
Lost too much sleep staying up for that second test after the servers died on the first
Every night has its reign
Did you fight star scourge radaan riding on the shoulders of consort radaan at the end?
no but i did fight the godskin duo riding on fire giant's shoulders while he skateboards around limveld on his little plate
really cinematic fight tbh, would die again
How was the bed of chaos with godskin duo at double speed in a deathblight swamp, while Anor Londo archers shoot at you from every angle?
Did you get the secret armored core encounter?
easy
not even difficult
Lowkey that would be insane
Like, those things are massive
Have it so If you beat nameless king with no one taking any damage he gets pissed and hops in a armored core
Nameless king reveals himself to actually exist in every timeline and is V.IV Rusty
(his armored core is yet another radaan version)
Armored core: consort of miquella.
unfortunately nameless king is not in the playtest
Miquella if he stopped being a little whiney piss piss baby and decided to do shit himself instead of...brainwashing? Charming? Charmwashing.
He'd be cooler if he drove a armored core to do shit instead of charmwashing people to serve him
Killed by their movement
Even better, you gotta kill a boss while armored cores are having a duel above you. You gotta dodge the effects of their fight while killing Margit again
Being touched slightly by anything kills you in game, and in real life, and deletes your operating system
When ii get to the final night and i see the nameless king riding Arkveld to battle
Dawg I think if it kills you IRL you don't need the OS or the in game thing 
Nightreign if Good
Nah wait
Nameless king riding a dalamadur
Nameless king but awesome
It’s Miyazaki, you need it all
Wack
is beating elden ring without summons a challenge run or is it beating the game the way god intended it to be played

neither
its just one of many ways to play
its the way i always play but i know plenty of people who like summons
nameless king if he was actually cool
As always, summons are the difficulty slider in souls game. Imo they sometimes make bosses harder, but that's very dependent
i was thinking summons like spirit ashes
oh yeah they exist
we both forgot the other option existed
yeah lol
last time i played elden ring was technically nightreign playtest if you count that
but it doesnt even have summons or spirit ashes so
currently seeing how many elden ring things i can rip off for my dnd campaign i love being creative
Real, creativity is the best part of making a campaign frfr
i think i can replace coins with runes
just have 1xp be 1 rune
would be weird to balance but
would be fun
i may not call it runes cause theres no shattering in my campaign hfsdhfsd
souls could work better
or
hm
what would the crucible equivalent of runes be
oh im reading about echoes, kind of neat
yeah blood echoes go hard
i think i may steal blood echoes
my players will notice this
i should rename it, maybe old blood, or crucible blood
or idfk
Maybe go with "Remnants of the Crucible"?
im thinking about ashblood,
when a creature dies, whatever powers are strongest in the area claims it, leaving only ashblood
so basicaly they either rot really quickly or get set ablaze idfk, maybe only fire, cause fire is cool
the name might change idk if i like ashblood
they may not even be physical idfk
im indecisicve
remnants of the crucible does go hard
yeah remnant of the crucible goes so hard i just looked up the definition of remnant
i may call them remnants then
thank youu
No problem
now the only question should remnant be a physical substance or actually just be in the holders blood
or both, maybe remnant is very volatile outside of a body
or something
blowsup
Are players able to use that volatility for anything?
maybe, could be fun!
or just a waste of xp jhsdfhdsfhsd
idk!
im a first time DM who loves being overambitious
Wait
Remnant
As in like
The goop from fnaf that makes the robots come alive
im killing you
i know nothing abpout fnaf
please dont say remnant is a real thing in fnaf
i gonna have to rename it i guess
or i could just keep calling it remnant and if my players mention fnaf i throw my massive d20 at them
every fnaf reference = walk on a pile of d4s
I'm personally of the design philosophy of if a mechanic in the system exists, players and enemies need a way to interact with it
Well then they'll just have to get creative with it
yeah, and thankfully stuff can be made up on the fly in dnd
I am always of the opinion that a first time dm should read the rules as little as possible
Homebrew the rules fr fr
Nah honestly tho
i dead the dms guide once should be enough
im homebrewing so much hehshe
The more you try and adhere to the rules the more your players will as well
Which means they'll be less creative
And everything will boil down to a stat check
Actually so real
i sompletely fucked with the AC system cause i want having high ac to not be like, That op, so your ability ro dodge is 10 + dex and the rest of the AC from the armor turns into damage reduction, crits pass through half of damage reduction, i think it could work, maybe cause less one shots at lower levels, make a real distinction between multi attacks and singular huge attacks
is it gonna be balanced? idk itll be fun though
You can always tweak it as you go
fore sure
:
i don't want to rain on your parade but this is why saving throws exist
To balance high ac
Which of course comes with its own set of issues
Fuck monks and rogues
ok so i have to add a save or suck to every encounter cause one of my players has an ac of 27
one of my players doenst actually have 27 ac twas an exampke
Yes exactly
Many issues
Iirc 27 ac is max base with shield spell
So that's actually a good example
imo saves are there to give the spell casters something they can avoid sometimes, thankfully everything isnt attack rolls
You could make concussive weapons skip the armor class roll at the cost of less damage
my old level 3 eldtricght knight could get to like 25 i think
i dont understand
If you cant cut em
Concuss em
Blunt damage
Save or suck is usually for cc spells, you can have a spell deal half damage on save
Better against armor, worse against flush or smtn
OH I THOUGHT YOU SAID CONCECUTIVE
now i understand
i think blunt weapons will simply be a minus something to enemy DR
im so tempted to make piercing weapons crit easier
atleast foir daggers
giving each weapon its own little
perk
Warframe stats
They could get bonus damage on crits
Are you playing 5e or 2024
maybe!
Puncture crits
Impact beTs armor
5e im not buying new books
Fuck buying things
No that'd have to be cold things!

i think critting with elemental damae should have some effect too
like setting alight, frostbite elden ring, arcing damage for lightning
etc
could be
maybne too much
but
who knows!
You could always acquire them in a legal™️ and not at all controversial manner
I would warn against frostbite elden ring
eh too sleepy to bother
crit with majority ice damage, frostbite condition, add like a 1d4 to an instance of damage once per turn or something
For how long though
idk 1d4 rounds might be a little bit too much
it'd let me introduce items that cure ailments
resource management is fun
frost could also just be like
halve movement
might be simpler hdsfhsdfh
oUHGH i found a pdf that turns all the elden ring races into dnd ones
i can add albinaurics and omens and
misbegotten
yessssssssssssssss
im happy
honestly i should go to sleep instead of prepping a 4th encounter theres not gonna be 4 encounters in session 1
the idea for that 4th encounter is some particularly smark cultures drop a carcass at the party to lure in some other predator nearby or something
could be spooky scary ahhhhhhhh
I hate the discourse around DS2
its like everyone wants to be the cool side by holding an extreme opinion instead of holding positions that's supported with well constructed points
Nah fr
Nobody anymore can differentiate between something that they just personally liked and something that is quality
I sometimes also feel like DS2 gets too much hate
the more I learn about the games development process I'm grateful that the game feels good as it is
and also the "DS2 is actually good and all of its flaws are intentional" crowd is sort of overcorrecting to the opposite side of "DS2 was done by interns and its the worst game of all time"
anyways let me reinstall DS2 I wanna complete my hexer caster run
i think its a fun game so far, havent finished it so idk my full opinion but its not bad
i actually kinda like ADP and the focus on strafing at the beginning of the game
dodging attacks by strafing is pretty fun
feels like monster gunter
hunter
ADP is like one of the worst aspects of the game I would say
its pretty much a mandatory stat for all builds and it exists because they artificially made your dodge shit in the beginning
worst thing you do when it comes to progression in video games is to carve up basic features of your character and paint them as improvements to your base abilities and they made just that
dodging was fine in DeS and DS1, but suddenly you have to earn your dodges now
I think its telling of Fromsofts opinion that this feature were never brought again
Dark Souls 2 has so many features I wished they'd bring back
It honestly makes Dark Souls 3 look pretty bland in comparison
What do you wish for?
I can see it, even some small things in DS2 i wish they'd bring back.
Like the way you held weapons
Only between same weapon types with very few exceptions
Its also only powerstance, you don't get a lefthanded r1 moveset
Bonfire Ascetics, New Game+ unique interactions, the weird NPC invaders you'd see sometimes
Oh, like the ones that actively hunt you
Yeah
Also like that one dude with the Lance in the last DLC that tries to be all friendly and backstab you when you look away
They also lead you down into the depths of the curse tower
yeah ascetics and NG+ unique content not coming back is sort of ass
It's mean but smart af that he leads you to a covetous demon to try to outnumber you
At least we got Armored Peak for actually good NG+ content
Honestly real
Definitely one of the best stories they ever did
Though I never played the older AC games so I can't say for sure
FA has 4 endings iirc
I think both 5th gen games only had 1 ending, but they were really weird as a whole
Lmao
Blowjob brothers beat the entirety of Dark Souls III in the two days before Wilds release
Crazy
What
What's confusing?
Classic
Is this you and someone else or a content creator
It's me and Beril
is there actually exactly 69 weapons in the game
No there's like, 300
But the number of ones that have a buff effect on themselves is probably around that?
Mind debuffed
happy ramadan frombros
the guy who did the curse you bayle line went pretty fucking hard in that job eh
So hard that for that one time I fought Bayle alone I missed hearing him
me and multiple of my friends all memorized the rant because of how hard it goes
weve also made stupid jokes 3 seperate times
like, what do you say if you're being hit by ice from the sky
CURSE YOU, HAIL
that but with different versions, over and over and over and over and over
weve had 3 seperate sessions of it, and each one lasted pretty long
its honestly the best
This is amazing
I looked up the curse you bayle monologue for funsies the other day
Never before in my life have I ever wanted to see a NPC succeed more than that guy
Pretty sad that summoning him makes it way too easy 😔
Does it? I've not seen much difference myself whether I bring him in or not, he helps a little in my experience but not enough to be taking away from the fight. In fact I've barely ever had Bayle aggro on him at all and he isn't doing much damage
It's nowhere near how much Leda or the two for Messmer take away from their fights
i think he's actually the best npc summon, because he doesnt make it too easy
i usually never use summons cause im a solo player type of guy
i summoned him because i thought it would further the quest, heard the awesome monologue, and then he was just like the chillest summon too
occasionally helping me stancebreak but not usually taking all the aggro
thats what i want out of a summon
i love igon
Just killed the blood starved beast now too
Easiest boss to shoot in the face?
i know this was like a while ago but i was scrolling up for some reason and i wanna say the thing i want most from ds2 is a pursuer type boss
i just love the idea of a boss that you find in almost every area because its "hunting" you
The 2 times ive ssummoned him, 2 times ive beat bayle with no pproblem 😔
love him but i like to fight hte boss more
Nah man I've already beat Bayle alone once, I'm here for the spectacle now
The Blowjob brothers have done it again
Unfortunate name. Pass my condolences to them.
can you play bloodborne on shadps4 rn?
I've been meaning to replay Bloodborne but I have to find a full HD TV to play it
Kinda. Some people have got it running all 120fps 4k or whatever. And I myself am still struggling to get it to run over 3fps and have functioning lighting
I’m sure if you’re fully dedicated and find the right stuff, it’ll work
what's your specs?
3060, 16gb of ram. Generally solid. Mostly just my lack of getting the emulator running solid
tbh I might go with the original hardware for now, setting up emus for consoles newer than PS1 tend to be ass
I think it me hours to setup DeS for the first time
I've never had terrible trouble with emulating PS2 or PS3 games but I literally could never get DeS to work
It'd always crash in the tutorial section
Based as fuck
this was coded in purposefully btw
So.
Fucking.
Based.
I modded Twitch chat into Elden Ring as a custom summon. Fully voiced in real-time.
Miyazaki forgive me.
I'm so pissed I'm not gonna be able to play Duskbloods when it drops probably
The Duskbloods, a brand-new multiplayer game by FromSoftware, is coming exclusively to #NintendoSwitch2 in 2026! #NintendoDirect
💬 238 🔁 2.9K ❤️ 11.8K 👁️ 531.6K
I hate that it looks really good
reminds me of the time when they released Bayo 2 on Wii U and nobody played it
You and me both
I can't believe we got a switch 2 exclusive from soft title and elden ring on Nintendo before bloodborne 2
Apparently it's PVPVE
So like erm
Multiplayer centered, sorta like Nightreign but I doubt there's gonna be much single player content if any
If it is multiplayer only then you're spending money on Nintendo's online bs just to play it too
I pray there actually is some sort of single player mode because I really can't see the appeal otherwise
And you're already having your wallet drained just to play it lol
what you dont have faith in fromsofts shitty netplay on nintendos shitty connection?
try full price+
or maybe if its up to fromsoft they will be reasonable and its only nintendos inhouse getting the full price+ or ++ treatment
Who knows but it's really just not getting me hyped
Im excited for Nightreign even though on the surface it's a very similar game
But nightreign is so so so much more accessible to play than this game ever will be unless it comes to pc and other consoles
it could be a timed exclusive
but i wouldnt hold my breath for it
it really felt like they wanted to make fun of sony and make blodoborne 2 at home
Hopefully because this is easily just a worse version of Bloodborne in almost every way from what we know so far
but im worried about the pvpve aspect, most games that had that have failed. the only one i can think of right now, well 2, are plagued with hackers
It's strange cuz it's clear they're also supporting Nightreign with alot of post- release content
Like DLCs and all sorts
And it makes me wonder if fromsoft is taking a COD approach to their future games where there's a big multiplayer game everyone plays every year and the next year there's a new one and so on
I assume all this is just testing the waters for the right formula for that kinda thing
The whole PVPVE thing rn seems like a really forced trend for multiplayer games
its been around for a while
the first game i remember with it was the dark zone in the division
and that was 2016
Yeah but it feels like it's not really justified the games that being made to chase that trend
Like erm
Battle Royales
They were decently popular in the same way for a long while pre-2017
But as soon as Fortnite came around, evverrrry games company wanted in
I don't feel like there's been any pvpve games with that amount of success to justify all the focus on that genre
its technically a untapped market
I suppose so but that is why it feels forced afterall
Everyone wants to jump on the idea because being first can mean maybe getting even a quarter or a third of the success that games like Fortnite have had over the years
And being the next Fortnite is basically like winning the jackpot
im ok with fromsoft experimenting with different stuff, i just wish they did it in the scifi setting
This is admittedly the closest to a modern day setting for a souls game we've seen from fromsoft
They got trains and stuff
Who knows
They probably do have some big massive single player souls game coming like
2027 or 2028
That'll actually blow people away
And they're just squeezing as much money as they can with Elden Ring's engine and models and gameplay before they make the next leap
Which is why NightReign uses so much Elden Ring content, and Duskbloods basically just looks like Bloodborne inside Elden Ring
Why are people online suddenly pretending like FromSoft netcode isn't literally the spawn of Satan
People are saying that
It's more that people are complaining about people complaining Nightrein and Duskbloods are so multiplayer focused, when a lot of the complaints about that focus are about FromSoft netcode
Can't I hate both in peace?!
Yes
tbh i never had a bad time with connection in the nightreign network test once i could actually get in
Miyazaki Breaks Silence on The Duskbloods: PvPvE, Blood-Powered Warriors, and More

Unfortunate

Hey compound this is where you call it a battle royale
not a battle royale

battle royale has one objective, when you queue up you get different game modes
Atleast Miyazaki said they're not pivoting to making multiplayer games from now on
This fight is ass where's my subway surfers
Never would've thought based on the state of their desk
A blade, unrelenting and unseen, hidden in the night.
Her foes are vanquished in the flick of a second hand, their fate unraveled in its echo.

it's funny seeing trailers for characters i've already played...
she's fun tho, super DPS focused, her special dodge has tons of leniency and i remember using it to bait bosses long enough for teammates to revive eachother or get my abilities back
and her ult thingy is very strong too
wouldnt be surprised if she gets heavily nerfed when the game comes out

this shit's so peak
bandai has usually been really good with articulation on model kits, at least for recent stuff
i havent seen any of the other ac6 kits yet though 
Darkness looms over Limveld, threatening the very essence of our world.
︀︀Gather your strength, Nightfarers. The Nightlord must fall.
︀︀
︀︀The Overview Trailer of #ELDENRING #NIGHTREIGN is now available: youtu.be/p2uYT8BQefA
I thought this game was out already
i guess may 30th
Did anyone ask the nightlords how they feel about this? Seems very unfair.
Since nightrwgin otw throwback to this clip of Meleina pressing me for the 20 runes I borrowed a few years back
the game looks cool
if it isn't 70 bucks i might get it
who are the voice actors for all the characters
It's gonna be like 40 dollars I think
May's IGN First is Elden Ring Nightreign! We're kicking off a full month of coverage with a brand new boss reveal of one of the eight Nightlords you'll be facing off against: Libra - Creature of Night. Stay tuned all throughout the month for more reveals, hands-on impressions, interviews, and much more as our IGN First for Elden Ring Nightreign ...
spoilers but if you wanted to see a full boss fight
of game journalists fighting it 
ill never understand why people think coop boss fights is fun
they've only shown like 4 of the night lords so far
so i wonder if there's some sorta big step up in the late game
You'll never be a true sunbro

Get a detailed look at how you should expect the world of Limveld to change from run to run (including the things that won't change) in Elden Ring Nightreign, the upcoming Elden Ring roguelike from From Software.
i wonder if you can call a static map a rogue like
or
if its more like .. whats that games name
fortnite
I feel like we've been here before, have we been here before?
🤔
Ok I'll bite
Arguably, yes assuming things on the map itself are randomized
please don't
ive said my piece. just gotta wait till the game comes out and see how people think. but i bet its going to feel more like a br or extraction shooter than it will a rogue lite. calling this a rogue lite is like calling destiny an mmo
i think that's fine tbh
playing the game in that network test it's definitely more focused on being more gamey and about doing these matches with friends
that cat knows whats up

Monster Hunter coded
The game looks cool, I have no idea if I’ll play it though cause I suck at soul’s likes
What'd you think of the experience?
Needed a break from the torture that was rl1 and weapon level 0 lol
Magic only was pretty alright tbh. Wasn't exactly easy-mode (partly because I didn't use terra magica or comet azur) but it was still pretty easy. Tbf I mostly used the magic sword spell (carian sword i think?) so it was just basic dodging
I prolly could've min-maxxed the shit out of the other spells but the damage I already did was sifficient
Ended at level 90 something I think
Yeah that one
Okay so
I don't mean to burst your bubble
But I'll be completely honest
That's probably the best spell in the game 
It gets NUTTY
Still a fun run though, I actually did a similar run a while back, nice work doing it yourself
I wouldn't say best, but definitely top 3
Comet azur has a higher floor on making it viable (in terms of preparation) but a way higher ceiling and stuff like comet can get insane too
Slicer is the most versatile tho I feel
Either way, I was mostly looking to have a challenge in terms of managing resources but that ended rather quickly sadly 
I can imagine, were you mainly dumping Int or the FP stat I can't remember the name of
Mind
A big challenge run I wanna do at some point is RL1 w0
But that one's really scary lol
That's the really big one
Gonna do all-bosses for now (including DLC since I've never actually done a lot of them) and after that maybe rolling damage only lol
Yeah, my big one was a 0 death, mainly just because I didn't feel confident enough to do RL1 or 0 hit, and I think I've been making decent progress on the latter at least
Do not do rolling only if you value your time lmao
Idk I really wanna learn the movesets and that seems to be a good way of doing that lol
I've been meaning to do 0 death in DS1 but that broke me years ago after like 30 failed attempts lol. In elden ring I could imagine doing it but I would get tired of the grind fast
I mean yeah, but then you're locked into a boss fight for upwards of an hour in the late game, and sure I can imagine it being a nice way to kill time if you got the patience but still
In Elden Ring it's not a huge issue imo, granted I did it lmao, but it did end up taking me something like 20 attempts in the end?
Early game elden ring just has a lot of downtime I feel
Actual shopping list in the first 4h
Yeah
Took me like 20-30 minutes just to get everything set up at the start of each run
Yeah
I remember one streamer doing his first 0 hit run in Dark souls doing the weirdest route of all time
Guy did the first few bosses, then went to DLC as soon as he could just to get gold tracer and then did the rest of the game
Took a huge detour with horrible damage for one weapon lol
Interesting strat
But hey, it worked
Is it because he missed BKH?
True
Also I will say that w0 was actually really cool, I ended up using ant spur rapier with bleed and poison or smth
Well, also some star fist for other bosses
Was just a cool run
You mentioned it earlier, but what is w0? I don't think I've seen that shorthand anywhere
Ah, makes sense
rl1 malekith is hell
like one of the worst souls experiences i had cuz u have to beat his first phase every single time to even have a go at the second phase and understand what's happening
rl1 mohg tho is actually a peak fight
Mohg is just a peak fight fr fr
i remember i dual wielded lordsworn straightswords with bleed on them for the first phase
so i could DPS through his easier phase and make the second phase shorter
and then i used star fists with cold since by that point the bleed didnt matter
I pretty much just Speedrun to his fight with BHF since that always gets the job done more than well enough
i remember using that for most of my rl1 run till morgott i think
i cant remember if i still used it on fire giant but i remember using rot arrows on him for phase 2
which made it pretty safe tbh, i was pretty worried about him being a roadblock but he was done on my third try i think
Nice strat
Iirc BHF is actually what's used for all remembrance speedrun now, it's just the fastest option for that category by the looks of it
i think the most fun thing about the rl1 run was all the experimentation you could do
even by the endgame you could still stack defense stats really high and tank most hits atleast once
Yeah, I can imagine how
That reminds me
I've been watching the region locked hitless, and it's really cool
hitless runs nowadays are pretty insane tbh
like people add on like 20 different rules to make them harder or do hitless runs of the entire series in one sitting
The god run 3 is insane, yeah
i remember when hitless DS2 all bosses + DLC was too hard lol
ER really introduced so many people to the series that i think any challenge is doable now
Yeah, probably
Another thing I've been reminded of, I really want to do a full operation deathless again in Helldivers 2, I haven't managed to pull it off since launch due to the belligerent shit getting toned down, but I think I could probably do it
And then eventually I want to see if I could get hitless
We’re thrilled to announce that Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc. and A24 are teaming up with writer and director Alex Garland to bring FromSoftware Inc.’s world-renowned video game ELDEN RING to life as a live-action film.
We’re truly excited to bring the world of ELDEN RING to fans in a new form, outside the game.
Stay tuned. The path ahead is only beginning.

ELDEN RING
I can already see the memes
ngl, i can see kevin hart as patches
A movie about Patches escapades would be kinda peak
It would end with him dying but still
When's Nightreign releasing again
29th pretty sure
Yeah I'm not gonna be able to get it immediately lmao
I was planning on it but I just ain't gonna have the money
How much is it?
40 buckaroonies
I hope they put duos in the game
I'm going to wait for what people say about it before getting it
2nd play through of armored core 6
honestly i forgot how fun it is to be a fast moving tank with 4 different weapons
A cursed blade, drawn not in rage, but in reverence.
Primordial might churns beneath gilded graft, hungering for the Night's undoing.

wtf is this 2006?
i saw the title and thought it would be this but then i thought nah they wouldnt be that lame
Evanasence? Really?
ya elden ring became woke
would anyone want to play Nightreign with me and another when it's playable
We've got a whole slew of people interested
guess I'll just invite him to the server to make it easier
i suspect there will be alot of people in vc around 6-7 to get games
A whole slew of people getting ready to ... Drop in... With gliders... Into a map that has a zone... Where the map has random loot but the same locations... where the zone is a circle that gets small...Where people team up in sets of 3s? Sounds sus tbh
Maps are randomized compound
Odd that
Odd that several reviews out today said that was outdated
Also like come on
Your gotcha is a reddit question with one comment?
I watched Pineapple's latest review of the game and he said it's like 70 or 80% the same map
But it do be different(sometimes)
i was under the impression it was the same map but similar in how they do it in fortnite where they put in a event and an area has a creator now. then once the season or event is over same map
You clearly know more about fortnight than me
exactly so when i saw something moves like a duck and quacks like a duck
its prob a duck
What about geese
what about meese
thats more than one moose
Yeah
have you guys seen a moose irl
mr buzzkill over here
i see them very often
nightreign soon
It’s out now chat
also this was meant as a joke cuz the song is waking up but i made the joke in another server and it went over everyones head so i dont want people thinking im that guy
So nightreign. Any good?
See I thought you meant it like how Beril uses it
its peak
me and my friend were one of the first to win a run i think
Yo sloth
I'm tired tonight but after I get off work tomorrow you wanna squad up
sure probably
playing with my friend right now and its gotten annoying waiting for a third person in matchmaking
has to be good if blender is still playing this late on a work day
@vast helm How do you respond to the above allegation?
omg hes still in call, he must have taken the day off work
the worst review ive seen of it so far is "it just feels like a really good modded elden ring" which considering i guess isnt so bad
i mean kinda i guess
the thing about that though is that mods pretty much only ever use unused content or existing content slightly changed
this has plenty of completely new things
anyways just got done playing the game for 11 hours straight, can confirm it is peak, and it is different
Been playing with my friend earlier today
Very fun but some of the changes from the network test to the main game got me a little annoyed
Especially how damaging the storm is now
i havent been able to notice any of them except for how theres just more stuff

Just beat my first nightlord solo
Pretty sick
Got a really clutch finish too with Wylder's ability
the revive system got changed a little too
you used to be able to insta revive anyone at maxxed out revive bars with your ultimate ability depending on the character but it does very little damage now
which imo is a bit cringe...
doesnt reward team play that much or let you weigh the options of using it on the boss or your teammates
If you're super big into souls games then probably
ive beat elden ring like, 7 times. So I do love it
Even without friends tho I'm sure tons of communities have people looking to play and chat
Plus they're adding duos in the near future
Imo it's very very quick pace tho
If you're iffy on having a souls game that actively rushes you all the time to do as much as possible under that time limit then I get it
Base ER had great exploration so some people aren't gonna quite get that same satisfaction
The focus is way more on teamwork, split second decision making and the fights here
probably not if you're big into souls games
it depends
its very different from your usual souls games
its more like sekiro than any of the others tbh
even besides the sekiro character
I don't see the sekiro comparison besides having a penalty put on you for dying
How is the experience with randoms?
But I meant that as in, it's got tons of dark souls bosses, it's got elden ring bosses
And if you like the combat
You'll probably have a great time
50/50 they know what they're doing and listen to the team's pings or its their first time playing and just kinda waste ur time...
It certainly gets better the later in the game you go I assume
it way faster
you have a really fast dash, you have walljumps
the combat isnt very sekiro besides executor but its just the movemet
Game kinda fun. But laggy. Fromsoft netcode is unfortunate.
gaming?
I've found the connection to be pretty good actually
Maybe it's regional or something
Its probably a skill issue but holy shit ||EQ beast, libra || is so ridiculously strong compared to the other night lords
No. I went to sleep after that run. I did kill the wolf. Got carried by ppl who knew what they were doing. Just followed around and fired some arrows here and there. Pleasent experience.
fallen in love with the ironeye class tbh
just a very fun moveset
also holy fuck the second nightlord boss actually nearly crashed me and my friend's PC when it phase transitioned
|| i ran ironeye with a poison bow + a bow with rain of stars on, while my friend ran recluse, and whenever i poisoned the boss it'd stagger and vomit out the poison. I'd just spam rain of arrows and my friend used comet azur and just tore him up ||
ME TOO
he directly attacks your framerate
yeah ive uh noticed
that boss is crazy
same with ||darkdrift knight|| imo
||though i never got far in that fight actually, we just all instantly died the first time and then never fought him again||
||i think actually a big reason to why libra is so hard is because madness is so hard to come by, so its rare to get the special interaction with it (i dont even know what it is)||

This is the greatest elden ring nightreign review of All Time
been hearing this more and more
that means bad in current internet language
in fromsoft language its bad, the first miss from the company
thats cringe
just cause its not the type of game they like doesnt mean its bad
i think its peak
once you get into the game its much better
we got him but you need a bow
this is just gonna be ds2 all over again
ironeye seems kinda busted for every boss honestly
iron eye is the 2nd best class imo
i beat tricephalos as raider, ||gaping jaw|| as wylder, ||both sentient pest and augur|| as ironeye
||augur is insanely easy as ironeye if you just get a lightning bow, theres like no challenge at all||
||but not if you get a magic bow welsh||
the tldr of the video is that the game gets super repetitive fast, all the sub genres of the game is malnourished, every run is almost exactly the same, no cross play and no communication is a bummer. and the fact they forgot duos can be a thing was a weird choice. and the rogue like elements are super lacking
thats just wrong but okay
why are you talking to welsh
||cause we ran augur earlier and he had a magic bow||
ohhh
yeah lol
what are your thoughts on running two of the same class
is that a better idea or a bad idea
personally i havent seen an issue with it unless the class is recluse
when you have two recluses, its harder to grab affinities cause of the other recluse taking it first, its harder for you both to get good spells, and idk its just kinda annoying
Yeah i haven't been too off put by it
Raider is good in doubles but I hate the stone pillar he has
i dont understand it
why does he have it
you could have made an AOE damage buff without a big stone that blocks your attacks
i do like raider a lot i just wish his ult was better
its the same for executor
the way he can just die during his ult, unlike every other character in the game
i want to get good at recluse, she's so cool
i think my only gripe is there isnt much variety so far
im on the third nightlord and i see some variety in bosses
|| i even got smeltor demon one time ||
but say if you get those shifting earth effects
it's the same exact bs in that shifted area every time
and the circle will always end in that location
and the effect only goes away if you beat the run
when the game works tho and it's randomised events and enemies do something cool this game is amazing though
just wish i was seeing more of that
oh yeah i also kinda wish the storm was a little slower cuz it feels like you just never have time to do everything interesting in a run
like one time i had this cool ass castle in the south with this effect on it in the map but the storm stopped my team from exploring and the shifting earth effect being on the north just made exploring it unviable
i did too
