I've been playing FromSoftware games since the original Dark Souls, which is now somehow almost 14 years old. The game that created an entire sub-genre following in the footsteps of 2009's Demon's Souls was the start of something very special.
It feels like Elden Ring: Nightreign is the next step of the journey that began all those years ago, as FromSoftware has taken its punishing combat and open-world gameplay and combined it with a co-op emphasis and different mechanics of other genres to create something unique and extravagant, although not quite perfect.
