Nightreign single playermode is unabalanced, not recommended for solo players

I got an early retail copy yesterday and after 5h playing solo yep I can confirm. I can't even kill the first night bosses.

For reference I have played Souls games since Demon Souls PS3 and I never had any issue on any of their games (even ER DLC pre-nerf)

I am getting wrecked in Nightreign.

It feels the game does not scale at all: I watched some streamers play trio yesterday and they took the same amount of damage as me and the mobs seem to have the same amount of health.

Defuk, test your fucking game maybe?

(Game is great tho)

You sound like a professional gaming "journalist". "This game is broken. 9/10."
 
Why would you ever buy this game to play it solo? That's like playing an extraction shooter solo without any teammates nor opponents, just the PVE element. There are better games for that.
For souls players that play everything? There aren't.


This game is basically focused on the combat of Elden Ring but with more challenge (build randomization) and I love it. I loved the beta and I am counting the seconds for the release.


I get that many enjoy souls games for other reasons that this game doesn't fulfill, this game is for people that likes the challenge and wants more replaybility. During the beta, I enjoyed playing with randoms, I even had a lot of fun trying to carry inexperienced players.


Its all about the challenge for me, since I really enjoy the gameplay loop. The game being harder on solo is a great thing for me.

But again... I get it, if someone mostly enjoy souls games for the level design, exploration and other things.... This game is not for them and that's fine, its a 40 usd game aimed at a very specific type of player.
 
Meanwhile....


People used to Elden Ring shouldn't have much trouble solo (obviously that excludes 95% of game reviewers).
