The highly anticipated Elden Ring spinoff has just been released, but the reception is mixed at best. FromSoftware faces some serious feedback from the fans, with many blaming the lack of some core co-op features from Elden Ring: Nightreign.
In the PS5 annual download rankings, the hunting action game "Monster Hunter Wilds," which has been improved in various ways, including the new "Focus Mode" action that allows you to aim and attack and guard, took the top spot. In second place was "ELDEN RING NIGHTREIGN," a cooperative survival action game based on "ELDEN RING" that has a revamped game design and allows players to face new threats together with other players. And in third place was "Ghost of Yōtei," a new open-world period drama action adventure from Sucker Punch Productions, the studio behind "Ghost of Tsushima.

Featuring two new playable characters and two new formidable bosses to challenge.
I haven't played it, but there should have been a dual co-op option at launch, and if the game is not strictly balanced from going solo to 3 people, then that is a major flaw.

By "feedback", do you mean "backlash"?
I like how if the developer is beloved, the title of the article won't use the term backlash.
