The only people "sad" about this release is the Armor Core Sub-reddit. They caught whiff of "nightreign" in a leak and thought it was AC6 DLC. Hyped for this, but also no AC6 dlc....
I'm not a FromSoft scholar (skill issues, I'm afraid) but does this seem like a Multiverse type of games? the blue flames scream Demon's Souls and I think I recognized stuff from Dark Souls?
Of all the guesses I had about From's next project, this was absolutely not one of them. It's like a stew of mechanics, features, and content from the whole series!
I'm excited since it sounds like a moderately-scoped & priced side project/experiment lead by one of the other lead devs on DS1 & 3.
Teaming up in squads of three – or daring to go solo – they must outlast a three day-and-night cycle, making split decisions about combat and exploration across changing maps to become strong enough to take down terrifying bosses at the end of each day.
Npt to be cynical, but did the Elden Ring board see the popular mods and say "Let's do that for money"?
It looks like Seamless Coop, bossrush roguelike mods, and the asset injections for Dark Spuls 1-3 all got incorporated and jammed into a few new map packs.
Mr SkillUp, will a TGA roundup video be released earlier in the week next week or will it just be a segment in the regular vid released at the regular time?

Still buying it, though.
