As much as I loved Elden Ring, this game basically being technically playable solo means I'll pass on it. I just don't have the ability to commit to anything consistent for multiplayer games, and I definitely don't know anyone else among friends that play FromSoft games.

Love Elden Ring, but not very interested in playing co-op with randos. Definitely not what I was expecting for the next FromSoft game, but it sounds like it could be fun to watch.

And I refuse to unironically call any game a "rogue-lite." "Like" genre tags are dumb enough, we don't need to add extra layers.

The decision to make a co-op game feels odd. The Souls games were well known for their unique PvP & Covenant systems. I'd have loved to see a whole spin off game dedicated to that.

Hard pass.

Even if I knew people to play it with, committing to a 45 minute session without breaks and having to do everything as quickly as possible just to get a single try against a boss who will flatten you until you fully learn the fight sounds miserable.
