Elden Ring Nightreign has cut an iconic feature that has been a part of the Dark Souls trilogy, along with the original Elden Ring, due to the a fundamental shift in the spin-off’s gameplay.

One of the ways in which the Souls games handled multiplayer content is by allowing players to leave messages on the overworld for other people to see. This can be used for good, such as warning players about Mimics or evil, by hinting that treasure awaits in a bottomless pit.

Elden Ring players had the ability to leave messages for each other, but that is no longer part of the game. According to an interview with IGN Japan (via Eurogamer), the ability to write notes has been removed from Elden Ring Nightreign.
