- FROM :
3 players coop rogue like game, where each player picks a character (the characters are different, each having different abilities and weapons) and together they try to finish the stage, which usually takes 20 minutes.what is this suppose to be, there's like actual classes now?

-Bro complains he didn't get something different.After over 1.2k hours in ER and its dlc, i simply do not want to be in the ER world anymore, at least not until ER2 if there's one. Outside of AC6, this will be the first Fromsoft game i skip since 2010.
I just don't like fast paced mech games. Would've taked Chromehounds over AC any day.-Bro complains he didn't get something different.

Deluxe edition says more characters. So imagine Risk of Rain or Ravenswatch. New characters and content like bosses to fight.Not sure about this
There were 8 or so of them on the character select screen. Is it going to be like Smash Bros where they keep introducing new characters?Looks like they just filled out the top row and theres plenty of room for more.
Yep I checked the preorders out and it looks like theyre making a service game out of the Elden Ring resources. Maybe it works and I will be the first to admit I was wrong, but its a wait and see.Deluxe edition says more characters. So imagine Risk of Rain or Ravenswatch.

I'm willing to give Nightreign a try. Duskbloods not so much.Yep I checked the preorders out and it looks like theyre making a service game out of the Elden Ring resources. Maybe it works and I will be the first to admit I was wrong, but its a wait and see.
All those resources could've gone into creating a solid single-player experience. It just feels like a huge waste.
But we'll see.
I get your point about asset reuse, and that does make sense on the surface. But when I say "resources," I'm not just referring to assets. I'm talking about everything:i think you're missing the point. they're reusing a ton of already made assets to create a small side project. this isn't some huge resource hog that's gonna set back their mainline games. you probably should shift that sentiment towards Duskbloods if anything. that game seems like kind of an asset reuse project too tho.
Fair enough. agreed. While I'm excited for nightreign (loved the network test, love elden ring, love roguelikes), i don't think there's anything to worry about going forward. they seem pretty committed to their single player souls formula and miyasaki even said elden ring wasn't his masterpiece.I get your point about asset reuse, and that does make sense on the surface. But when I say "resources," I'm not just referring to assets. I'm talking about everything:
- developer time
- design direction
- testing
- balancing
- marketing
- creative focus
etc. etc.
Even a smaller side project requires significant internal coordination and attention. And when its multiplayer focused, that adds layers of complexity: server infrastructure, matchmaking systems, long term balancing, and ongoing support. All of that takes time and energy away from what could've gone into a new, deep, single player experience
So yeah, I still think it's a waste, or at the very least, a questionable use of their talent and momentum.
I still dont understand what this is and why
It's playable single player, but still I urge souls fans here to look at this game as a dungeon-running experience rather than constantly comparing it to other souls games.That's me.
I'm still holding off, though. I really hate the idea of a full FromSoftware multiplayer game.
