People should’ve known these things going into it but hopefully the bad reviews should push fromsoftware to make the duo mode quicker.

I have two friends and we’ve all be playing the souls games on and off for about 10 years, this game is hard and pretty different. It may just take getting used to, but without comms, it was rough random queuing. Us 3 in discord made significantly more progress, but it was absolutely a great time.
Same here. Elden Ring was my first souls game. I would never have beat it without the seamless co-op mod. I just don’t have skill, time and patience for it.
Night Reign seems to me like an arcade version of Elden Ring. It forces you to move faster and make snap decisions (that blue flame closes in fast!). We got to Day 2 last night but I could see us pouring lots of hours into it.
Yeah that death wall needs to slow down a little, either in when it first comes out, or just the speed of it. Once in, you’re not coming out with any heals at all if you even make it.
The map pinging has been sufficient communication for me. Other players can “confirm” your pings, which is a great way to show they agree.
Different is good. I’m not a FromSoft-gamer. Elden Ring is the only game of theirs I really ever got into (and it’s not for lack of trying), so I don’t really care it’s not the same game again.
Also, you’re right, what I’ve seen doesn’t look easy, and no real communication at all is a bummer (only set a marker or jump and crouch in front of something), but it still looks like fun.
