It's a real shame FROM uses Easy Anti Cheat. I have a hard rule against kernel anti cheats. Otherwise I wouldn't hesitate to buy that one.

I was excited at first but when I read more about it, it feels more like battle Royal type of game which I’m not exactly in to.

In honestly I put close to 800 hours in to Elden Ring and loved every minute of it but I think I’m ready to move on from Elden Ring as whole…..the story is over and I’m satisfied.

I mean, who am I kidding, even if it's a departure from the recipe, I know I'll most likely be playing it. Especially coop online. I have a friend I've played a ton of Abiotic factor with that will love this version of Elden ring.

I would have hesitated of it was online only, but with offline I'll definitely bite. Day one as soon as a pre-order page is up.

This isn't like base Elden Ring or the DLC right?

Isn't it a MP GAAS? That can be played solo (like The Division)? That has a campaign, but it primarily a co-op MP game.

The cartoony graphics would lend credence to that, if it is a MP GAAS.

Unlikely. I like the more concise From game. My preferred way of playing Elden Ring is skipping everything unnecessary in the zones and beelining to the Legacy Dungeons, where the game is fantastic. A perfect run for me is zero Rune Bears and zero Putrid Tree Spirits.

I'm not sure there is going to be any "beating it", there isn't an end to the game from what people have been

To be honest It feels like a fan total conversion mod and totally a passion project, not a cash grab, trust me bro.

I actually wanted them to do something like this. But with a PvP twist, multiple teams with players that can betray each other, strong monster randomly hunting players, different objectives etc. They could really come up with some exciting formula for 1h matches instead of this this 3 player 'look for loot and kill the boss' idea. I hope I'm wrong and the game will actually be good.

A battle royale Souls game would be dope.

Unsure,,,depends on how many repeat bosses there are… if repeat bosses have new move sets than that’s a good thing.. im very familiar with the nameless kings moves set style/pattern,if he changes his attack pattern up to the point it feels like a new challenge,then I’m leaning a lot more towards yes

Deep down the truth is I’ll probably get it, but I haven’t seen enough to be certain yet. Sekiro movement in ER and OTT specials look fun, though.

Spin-offs = cash grab
The Simpsons was as spinoff of the Tracey Ullman Show. Fraiser, SVU, Better Call Saul.

Final Fantasy Tactics was a spinoff.

I bet this game ends up being a top rated game of the entire year and has a huge impact when it launches. There have ALWAYS been From haters who don't like the path we zeitgeist pioneers dare to tread. Too bad. We will keep going the From Software route until morale improves and everyone will follow the truth is that very few people can be trendsetters and trendsetters like hard games.

Do you know what a hipster is?

A hipster is a person who follows the latest trends and fashions in clothing and lifestyle, especially those regarded as being outside the cultural mainstream. We have enough hipsters in gaming that as long as those of us who just generally love From software keep pumping them then we will never, NEVER dry up. We will have hipsters that aren't even born yet doing our arguments for us in 30 years. Yall just keep gaming and I guarantee you, you will not resist our siren's call for the next From Software game. If you resist this spinoff now, you will simply have MORE desire to play the next one, it's not escapable unless you are capable of forming your own opinion and sticking with it thru fomo and hipsters. Good luck.

Another 2 or 3 of these projects and From Software will evaporate all the good will they've built over the years

It's great to hear that it can be played solo and offline, but I have no single interest in a boring Battle Royale or Rogue-like game.

What they where thinking ? What that the hell is this monstrosity ?!
