Okay, so I’ve been diving into Elden Ring Nightreign lately. And, let me tell you, it’s got its quirks and charms. Like, you know when you’re playing a game and just… well, you’re not entirely sure what’s going on but you kinda like it? That’s me here.
First off, let’s talk about the whole meta progression thing. Not perfect. Maybe a bit wobbly? Who knows. But the customization—oh boy! If you’ve been in the FromSoftware fan club for a long time, you’re in for a treat. Remember that second Night Lord? Once you knock him down a peg, you get access to this mirror at the Roundtable Hold hub. It’s like window shopping but with runes. Paste those runes into new outfits for your Nightfarer.
So, you start with the basics: “Dawn” and “Darkness” —pretty dramatic, right? And finish one of those Remembrance Quests, and bam, a third outfit! The nostalgia kicks in hard with the Dark Souls references. I mean, who wouldn’t want to parade around in armor sets paying tribute to the trilogy? Like we didn’t play those games enough!
Jumping over to those iconic outfits. I’m getting goosebumps just thinking about them! And fingers crossed, the DLC brings in even more. I guess I’m a sucker for new skins.
Oh, now let’s detour to these outfits from Dark Souls. Ornstein and Smough, anyone? Picture their golden suits on a Nightreign character—chills. Seriously. Don’t even get me started on Big Hat Logan. His fashion sense is quirky but kinda cool. And for real, Sir Alonne’s armor from Dark Souls 2… just chef’s kiss for the Executor character, if you ask me.
And then there’s Sekiro. Poor guy doesn’t get enough love here, but give it time. Executor does seem to nod to Sekiro with that deflection mechanic, though. Does this mean a Sekiro-inspired outfit is on the horizon? One can hope.
One last thought—well, too many thoughts, but you get it—Bloodborne! Seems like a missed opportunity, probably because of that whole Sony thing. Still, imaging a Hunter-inspired outfit makes my gamer heart flutter.
Anyway, was I supposed to be wrapping up? Oh right, if you’re geeked out on FromSoftware lore or just hunting for killer outfits, Nightreign’s got this alluring chaos to it. Dive in, but you know, don’t get caught in the maze. Or do, because sometimes that’s the fun part, right?
