Elden Ring Nightreign is hard in a way that no FromSoftware game over the last decade has been.
Where the pacing of Dark Souls and Elden Ring normally reward patience, Nightreign demands a speedrunner's frenzy. Where the intricate dungeons of those games encourage memorization, so that you can dart in to grab a killer weapon or key item your second go-round, Nightreign randomizes everything. The map could be overflowing with the types of weapons that'll make a boss go down easily… or it might not offer you a single one.
