Dark Souls 3 announced (Early 2016, PC/PS4/XB1, Miyazaki Directing)

Hype rising.

I don't really care if it is with or without Miyaziki, all I want is a real and plausible level design like in ds1 with much less humanoid monster and bosses.
 
Hope Miyazaki helmed doesn't mean the online is crippled with the bell system, and that there are only a handful of weapons/armor.
 
I'm seriously considering just staying out of DS3 threads until making the discussion exclusively about who is working on it rather than the game goes out of style.

I'm thinking this will never happen. You can't go any thread about the souls series in general without having someone shit on DS2 like it's Superman 64.
 
It looks like a direct sequel to DS2.

I'm pretty sure that as the Giant Lord/The Last Giant

If it's THE Giant Lord or not is unsure, but the crown looks pretty much the same. Armour is a lot more ornate though, Giant Lord didn't wear much in the way of armour iirc
The trailer looked focused on the crowns like the DS2 DLC.

I'm gonna guess the canon ending is getting immunity from the curse via the crowns + the Leave (Aldia) ending and that is gonna fuck shit up
 
I want this to be a Miyazaki game if only so this stupidity of teams ends.

To be fair, that team had to deal with a lot of the game being retooled.

Unless you assume the team's efforts based on the DLC, then..well, yeah, Miyazaki would be a must.

I like the policy but I think it will be a long wait. People get insane with that garbage.

Yeah the way people talk about it is terrible. But even I have to admit that the games directed by Miyazaki have something special. I like both equally in terms of fun ... but his games have this special something.

Are you pretending that Dark Souls 2's narrative and nonsensical level design is something you want more of?

Are you unable to see where Dark Souls 1 (and Bloodborne) did it right, and Dark Souls 2 messed up?

It's not a bad game, it's just disappointing as the sequel to quite honestly one of the best games of all time.
 
Just ditch the DSII engine (use the BB engine) and ditch that bullshit Agility stat.

I should be good at the game because I'm good at the game, not because I dumped a bunch of fucking points into a stat.

Don't even need Miyazaki helming it. Give team #2 a second chance to show us they learned, leveled up, and are ready to wow us.
 
Disappointed if they're doing a straight sequel to ds2. Found the story lacking. The leaked screens made it seem like they were going with ds1 age of dark. Hope we get more info/game play soon.

This! God i'll deal with stupid giants, uninspired lore and magical nonsensical crowns all day so long as the gameplay is good. (Please let the lore be good :'[ )

Given the rumors that this closes out the 'Dark Souls Trilogy', it would be nice if this tied the settings of the first two together more closely.

I'm not saying I want every area just to be one from the previous games, mind you. Not at all.

Well for one, I don't care about the story. I also don't care if the level design makes no sense, because I don't play games to judge geometry and complain on forums about how there can't be lava castles in the sky because I didn't see it there before I took the elevator.

I don't care if it doesn't make sense, it looked cool AF, that's all that mattered to me.

Bloodborne did 1 thing right for me and regressed on everything else, so there you go.

If DS2 is any indication, this may never happen.

Trailer didn't do much for me, but it's not like I'm not going to be there day one regardless. (Well, whenever it hits PC)
 
You mean the Dragon Shrine, that's not Drangleic Castle in the DS2 intro.

Yeah sorry.

The new DS2 ending implied the start of the Age of Dark.

And (susprise) looks like it wasn't as good as some people though lol

It was fine that way, took more skill to roll. Rolls are too OP in general, you guys would cry in Monster Hunter with the 2 frames of invincibility.
 
I hate that I don't feel more excited about this. Maybe once we get more details and more than just the leaked batch of screens it will kick it, but it all just feels too soon for me. Burn out maybe? After thousands of hours of play with the series I didn't think it was possible.
