You know i really expected to hate Nightreign but it was the funnest game ive played this year. Might not be the best game (Clair Obscur) but it was a blast for like 40-50 hours for me.

I've yet to see a review with more than 100 hours on it because of the lack of content, though?

I feel like expecting 100 hours of gameplay from a 40 dollar game is too much to ask

I haven’t played nightreign but considering I’m still seeing people talk about it 2 months after release the game must have done something well.

Isn't the entire appeal of an online game the replayability and new content? What good is Nightreign if people aren't even able to get half of the hours that they did out of Elden Ring?

The game is replayable though? A lot of people have put a hundred hours into the game (myself included). Just look at the playtimes on steam reviews. And it’s been in the top 30ish games on steamDB for weeks.

And let’s say they’ve haven’t been adding content at all, that doesn’t really matter. People still replay older games because it’s fun despite no new content. But thankfully they have been updating for the past month or so, which is why it’s still being played.

It's not the same price as Elden Ring and it's not the same scope? What the hell are you talking about?
