Dark Souls 3 announced (Early 2016, PC/PS4/XB1, Miyazaki Directing)
- Thread starter Lord British
- Start date
I feel the same.
So that it only makes money on PC? The sales of the series on Xbox has always been the weakest pillar of the series.

Yeah man. I love the games, but this isn't what I wanted. It needs some damn time off, especially when they're so time consuming.
So you were that kid who broke everyone else's toy after yours broke.
You want to it to flop and split the DS fanbase? Wow...

If Dark Souls 3 is superior in all aspects to DS2 I don't see why not.

How the hell do they make these games so damn fast? Starting to get fatigued by the series a bit, but I'll be there day 1 and play the hell out of it.

No Miyazaki? Oh well we still have BB DLC.
Is that the ivory king crown? and that was the king of the giants I guess?
Interesting, looks like the cycle was broken.

Yay. Can't wait to see more.
Dude it's pointless, you'll never stop the B-team-vs-A-team and premature-conclusions-jumping thread shitting. :|

No way, they're gonna get that double dip.
If you played DS and DSII and don't know which one is a Miyazaki game then I don't know what to tell you.
Who is working on it is pretty important.
Lol, what.
With Monster Hunter, you had a CONSISTENT number of invinci-frames. So whenever you pressed the dodge button, you knew exactly what you were getting.
You could *le gasp* LEARN how to dodge and have only yourself to blame if you get hit.
In Dark Souls 2, you had that disgusting stat + equipment weight creating a horrendous smorgasbord of a sliding gradient of dodge frames.
So whenever you press the dodge button, you get electric boogaloo shenanigans where you have ZERO clue how many frames you have unless you consult a wiki.
And even then, how do you train your reflexes to git gud when you go from 20 --> 3 --> 17 --> 69 frames of invincibility everytime you level and/or change your equipment compared to a buttery smooth 2 --> 2 --> 2 --> 2.
I know which one is the Miyazaki game. I also know which one I like more overall. Hint: it's not the Miyazaki game.
All reports have said that this is a Miyazaki game.

I take it that was a SOTFS change then? As I recall the whole story of ds2 was cycles and vagueness and that ds1 didn't mean shit as the age of fire would come back regardless. I hate how ds2 takes away the ambiguity of the original's endings and ignored the loose ends from one like kaathe and Co.

Looks like the fire is dying (again, for the 7 time) and the golem/giant dude is powered up with chaos fire.
SOTFS didnt change anything just cycles.

Not much else to talk about with a CG trailer. :/
I was hoping for a few gameplay snippets at least, showing off the "sword arts" thing.
Well, that's fair enough but it matters to a lot of people who is directing this. It will literally dictate if they buy it or not. I think people are entitled to be unhappy if this is another Dark Souls game without Miyazaki.
how?
he was working on BB till the beginning of this year and now they are working on dlc.

Oh, I thought you liked ScotfS from the Bloodborne OT. But I agree.

It's not exclusive...
?
think you confusing me with someone else.
only beat dark souls 2 once without all optinal bosses and never bought the dlcs.
they should have made a new "franchise" like bloodborne.
even if dark souls 3 ends being a great game, because I never really finished part 2, I won't play it.
This. My negative feelings towards DkS2 are more extreme than most on here and I've caught shit for it, but like... I'm sorry, I just really, really didn't enjoy that game. I wouldn't consider it "at least better than most other games" as most people describe because I don't walk away from most other games feeling empty, bitter, and overall dissatisfied about what I just played.
Miyazaki's involvement isn't a total dealbreaker, I am willing to give the B team another chance, but it's not a super hyped day one buy like Bloodborne was for me. I am much more skeptical of them.
^^^^^^
THIS makes no sense to me and no number of "oh btw he's working on it" articles will lift this skepticism for me.
I don't know, he might have finished his work on BB last year and he's probably not involved with the DLC.
Are you for real, lol. Weight has no affect on iframes, only distance, your values are ridiculous, you don't even know the basic mechanics of the game.
Also, Monster Hunter has varying iframes as well with evasion equipment, which I am sure you will have a negative opinion on.
Same here though I don't even care if it comes two months later, It's PC or bust. I refuse to compromise on quality for a game like this.
Miyazaki had nothing to do with the Chalice Dungeons, maybe he was splitting time between the two games, and shifted focus to DSIII completely while the others built the dungeons. Definitely a stretch, though.

After playing Bloodborne, and hating it far more than I did Dark Souls 2 (something I would have thought impossible), I'm not sure if Miyazaki working on it matters to me. As long as they can rekindle some of the DeS / DaS feeling, I'd be happy.

I love Pokken!
I need a HQ version of the trailer. BlimBlim pls.
Why, though? Should they pretend it never happened? A lot of people enjoyed it.
They need to cater to all the fans, not just the hardcore.
I don't think it's a big stretch. Tetsuya Nomura managed to lead FFXV and KH3 at the same time, and both games turned out well.
It's Dark Souls 3, and it's probably the game that will wrap the curse. What did you expect?
There's still an ongoing storyline going in Souls games.
