>What goals of Nightreign does Elden Ring achieve in a better way?
Variety of experience is the big one. Nightreign absolutely tries to force repeat and varied runs of the same content, but there's less content, the runs are rushed and too similar to one another, and the general build customization was replaced with a barebone character selection.

Just doesn't seem like a great time to me after I completed the main story. I barely wanted to play it that much.
