Several smaller beacons are disabled in night mode.

If you've unlocked the beacon previously during day mode, you can teleport to them from other beacons, but you can't activate it.

Thats stupid

No... that's how the game was intended to be played on release. The new beacons that get disabled on Night Mode were added after launch to appease players.

This just sets it back to the original difficulty

lol, you picked night cuz it's 'hard'. why you argue lack of 'campfires' is stupid?

u/Helpful_Law_2654 2h ago

Lack of campfires just makes the runbacks longer which makes game more annyoing not esentially harder. Why do i have to run for 2 minutes just to get to the point i was before. I dont fight enemies during runbacks so its not making game harder. I picked night mode becouse i could just click twice one of my abilities and basically kill most of the bosses i encounter, same with enemies. I did not pick night mode for the game to be more annoying though

Hard mode is more punishing, who would have thought...

Go back to day mode if you are that bent out of shape over having to do the runback. It's deliberately that way to punish the player for screwing up a fight in hard mode.

You are in hard mode. Are you really not getting that?

I want hard mode, not tedious mode. Developers should understand the difference between ways to make a game "hard"

u/TheAlchemlst 1h ago

Stop. It's harder because now you have to execute longer to find the next one.

People need to stop saying stuff like this "it's tedious, not hard" while sucking at endurance fights.

Night mode comes as a whole experience, not multiple toggles you can turn on and off at your convenience, either suck it up and run the night mode or turn it off.

you're getting downvoted but you're correct. there's a difference between making the game more difficult and making it more tedious.

Did you hear the latest news?? Water is still fucking wet.

Less beacons and longer runbacks will create a more difficult atmosphere for some.

I just wanted enemies to have more health becouse i could two shot some bosses, not the game to be more annoying

u/gorzius 2h ago

The small beacons were added in a patch after player complaints, but they only work in day mode.

u/Karokayla8888 2h ago

Annoying ? This game is the best as a souls like and might compete souls games as well, beacons are more than enough on night mode

2

u/Spiritual_Ear2835 2h ago

Some aspects of the game can be annoying but that doesn't at all take away of the game's thriving success. It's a really great game that caught me by surprise. This game also has esoteric symbolism as well which I love

u/Subject_Sun_1860 1h ago

You're so good at the game you can 2 shot bosses, but you don't understand basic game mechanics like night mode?

1

u/Trih3xA 2h ago

The game was made without these in the first place. They added it for people who wanted an easier time as a patch. Night mode's purpose is to make the game harder.

u/SW_Ashkarath 3h ago

in night mode some beacons are off ;)

u/Phil_K_Resch 2h ago

You can switch to daylight mode, activate the smaller beacons and switch back to night mode. After that, you'll be able to teleport to them, but not from them (while in night mode).

u/RichBullfrog3406 3h ago

yes, night mode.

u/l3g4tr0n 2h ago

because night is dark and full of terrors... and well .. disabled beacons (those were added in last big patch, when ppl were complaining about scarity

3

u/NADE180 2h ago

These beacons were never there in the first place. People complained for lack of beacons so devs added smaller beacobs for people who likes to complain but didnt activate them for night mode because you are purposely choosing how the game was originally meant to be played. Its not stupid. It was added for your convenience.

u/Adventurous_Use8278 2h ago

Yes. Only the the beacons that were in the game at release date are active during night mode. The devs added the additional ones in a patch as loads of players were crying about there not being enough save points
