After now finally having completed the game I feel confident to write an honest review.
Honestly I'm still confused how so many game critics have serious issues with this game and it's way of fitting into the Elden Ring universe. The game is amazing. Now admittetly as a roguelike it's got some flaws. For starters the game is not as replayable as you would expect from a typical roguelike as most of the content is either the same nearly every run or just mundane in the way it buffs you. But as a challenging Roguelike with souls combat - and a "second part" of Elden Ring it's absolutely amazing. The game has something that many people tend to forget nowadays to judge - it's very fun, and addicting at that.
I also find it interesting that many souls veterans say this game is way too easy while playing with 2 friends that are also souls veterans and playing weapons and playstyles they are very comfortable with. Generally I feel like this game was balanced around playing with randoms, no communication apart from pings and with weapons and classes that you would normally maybe not have picked up. That for me was some of the best parts about the game though. The fact that I really got to play weapons and playstyles that I normally would never have chosen. In my 260h in Elden Ring I never chose to play a full mage build or with a big shield. I also never played a full parry playstyle. Well, in Nightreign I tried all that and it was very fun to execute.
Generally though I'm won't downtalk the cons this game absolutely shows (although it has been said that some of these will get fixed in the future). More communication would be awesome, more diversity in maps, relics and buffs you pick up along your expedition, 2 man expeditions and so on.
But I'm confident with time these things will improve.
Anyways enjoy the game it's awesome!

The main menu is really intriguing and especially the log in button is perfect. I love constantly spamming it. The game even shows two different errors from time to time and they sometimes edge me by giving me the false hope of it loading just to give me another error after 5seconds.
Also I found a little secret :)
You can get a different sound by clicking enter instead of lmb on the log in button.
Great game so far love the little secret details c:

Very fun with friends

As many critic reviews have pointed out this DLC is a 10/10 without a doubt.
It's an amazing addition to the main game which honestly could've been sold as Elden Ring 2 and I wouldn't mind. The difficulty scaling is perfect and with the latest update it's been improved for the early game as well which makes it a little more accessible than at launch. Although just as with Elden Ring you can "adjust" the difficulty as much as you prefer with using stronger weapons / summons / strong items / overpowered builds etc. . I liked the design and fighting patterns of most bosses especially the humanoid ones were very well designed. In my opinion some of the "animal" and "godly" (excluding the final boss) were not very enjoyable and just felt like the devs gave up on actually making the fight interesting and just tried to make it as difficult as possible. But this may just be my understanding which is why I still say 10/10.
The final boss of this dlc was amazing and without a doubt the most difficult boss I've ever faced. But just because he's difficult doesn't mean it's an unfair fight as many say. I think if you go into the fight with a good strategy, not underleveled and know this boss's pattern you'll succeed evantually.
Also the map seems relatively small at first sight but because the levelling and layering is so different it's a lot bigger than what you see at first. I loved the scenery for a lot of this map it was just as beautiful if not more than the main game.
One thing that threw me off was the way to access some areas. For a couple of pretty big areas you had to complete a specific cave or take a very narrow path to access a whole new area with a new main boss and everything. I generally liked this but I see why it would confuse some people.
All in all perfect can't imagine a better dlc. :)

While some aspects of Enshrouded do seem intriguing and innovative at first, taking a closer second look at this game reveals some major issues.
1. The combat is awful. At first it may seem like there are a lot of different weaopon types that all play different but factually speaking there is only short sword with shield, bow and magic. Magic seems to have the issue that the auto aim is really bad and some spells are very short ranged while the durability is very bad. Bow seems to be pretty handy and the best up until now. And melee is very clunky because the animations are very long which doesn't allow for a lot of working with the shield. The "bosses" (Big enemies, bad design, not difficult, generally just not interesting) one shot you anyways.
2. The dungeons are bad. Especially the Hollow Halls dungeon is extremly repetitive. I've played through 2 of those dungeons now and the second one took like 1 1/2 hours of just killing more and more skeletons and then doing it all over again until you reach the boss, clap him and the loot reveals to be a bow which I'm not using because I'm going melee :)
3. Stamina is very annoying. While there are ways to increase your stamina as soon as you die you lose all of your bonus and have to stay still every 20sec. Generally the regeneration is just insanely slow and really gets on my nerves.
4. Durability is so stupid in this game. For magic and for swords it's just extremly annoying. You have to repair them every 10-15min if you use your sword / wand in combat, but while in shroud you cannot get to an anvil easily so you're just stuck with a broken weapon.

All in all this game is pretty bad. A lot of aspects are not worked out even for an early access game. Don't buy it even on sale as of right now it's not enjoyable.
Also I think a lot of these reviews have to be bought. There is no way anyone in their right mind would think this combat, nmovement whatsoever is actually good in this game.

Banger game. Don't care what other say it's fun and honestly Nintendo just missed the chance to bring out a solid Pokemon game for pc. Currently 1 Million players speaks for itself aswell.

Okay. Obviously needs fixing and more attention to detail but it's fun. That's what matters in the end

Hmm. Very poorly optimized. And no saving is a no go. Even getting over it has that feature. Honestly if you want a game like that just get getting over it. Will take a look again in maybe a few weeks or so

Best thing ever.
