Elden Ring Fan's Epic Endurance: A Hitless Messmer Daily Until Nightreign
An Elden Ring enthusiast has embarked on a seemingly Herculean task: consistently defeating the notoriously difficult Messmer boss without taking a single hit, and repeating this daily until the release of the upcoming co-op spin-off, Elden Ring: Nightreign. This ambitious undertaking began December 16th, 2024, and will continue until Nightreign's 2025 launch.
The challenge, documented by YouTuber chickensandwich420, highlights the enduring popularity of Elden Ring, three years after its initial release. The game's demanding yet rewarding combat and richly detailed world continue to captivate players. While hitless boss runs are common within the FromSoftware community, the sheer repetition of this daily feat transforms it into an extreme test of patience and skill. Messmer, a formidable boss from the Shadow of the Erdtree DLC, presents a significant hurdle even for seasoned players.
This dedication underscores the creative challenges fostered by Elden Ring's design. The game's open world and complex boss encounters inspire players to devise increasingly intricate self-imposed challenges. The anticipation for Nightreign, announced unexpectedly at The Game Awards 2024, further fuels this dedication. This co-op focused spin-off marks a surprising continuation of the Elden Ring saga, defying previous developer statements about concluding the main game's content with Shadow of the Erdtree. While a precise release date remains unannounced, Nightreign is slated for a 2025 release. The fan's ongoing challenge serves as a testament to the game's enduring appeal and the passionate community it has cultivated.
