Same, sucks for me. Also feel the same about that battle royale slop they are making for Switch 2

Can't say I'm super hyped or anything, but I'm excited for just another FS game. Albeit, it's not really a game I would've preferred, but hey!

I've always hated the multiplayer side of their games, and immediately switch everything to offline mode in every game, even Bloodborne. I'd rather use the AI ghosts if I want help in a battle, but I despise seeing real people in my single player worlds in any form.

The biggest feature I hope other co-op devs borrow is the 'hit to heal' feature.
You can play the game solo.

I played the beta and I really liked it. It's great if you have friends. We managed to beat the final boss 3 times and it was a thrill.

If it was a normal day for sure is going to have more attention… Youtubers are going to eat well today with GTA. This is just another overview trailer, nothing interesting.

At least not many on GAF it seems.
There's literally twice as many comments on Brazil's price increase to match US pricing for Ghost of Yotei. Not a particularly interesting topic right? That thread was also created today (and an hour later). Something is definitely off about this one. I'd be curious to see how it does commercially.

When Ubsoft recycle their ideas and assets over and over... the critics are overwhelming... im sorry to say, this should be the SAME case here.

I'm at the point where I don't think we'll get that Bloodborne remaster. At least, not this gen.

It's "just" a side project, FromSoft's A teams aren't working on this.

No they aren't, shithole game Assassins Creed Shadows got good reviews.
Furthermore, BG3 had more in common with DOS2 than TotK did with BotW.
You obviously don't realize this, but it is clear as day that iteration is the key to making the best games. Often game systems, graphics, engines, ect are reused and continuously perfected over time. That, in and of itself, is no reason to criticize a game.
Rather, when the game fails to evolve, then the game should be heavily criticized. For example, you are good making this diss on Horizon Forbidden West, but not Elden Ring. Even though Elden Ring like every other fromsoft game is an asset flip and they spent tons of time making new shit for Forbidden West, Forbidden West failed to evolve. It was worse than the first game and all the wrong things were brought forward, none of the other shit was fixed or even mixed up. That's the same reason you can't compare the bullshit that Ubisoft calls games to most other games, because Ubisoft is lazy, backwards thinking, pushing an agenda, greedy, and inept. Their games have shown this clearly for many years, which is why as Fromsoft has risen, Ubisoft has sank.
Miyazaki directed the Fromsoft game on switch so no matter how much everyone hates Nintendo, it's Bloodborne 2 and will be magnificent goty candidate. If you know anything about the man you know this to be true. /remindme 1 year

For $40, I'm in. Like most Rogue-lites/likes, I'll sure I'll have a blast for 50 to 100 hours and then be done with it.

Bosses look terrifying in this.
In normal From game itself, they are crazy. Imagine trying to beat them on a clock in first attempt.
Anyways, am short on a friend who wants to buy this. 3 are needed. Might play on launch depending if anyone gets ready to give this a shot.

It has Limgrave characteristics but the layout changes every run, plus heavy deviations like the volcano level.
That said, it is kind of weird how they have a plethora of areas to lift from Elden Ring but they chose only Limgrave.

For better or for worse (worse IMO) this will sell like hotcakes and will most probably send the wrong message to FROM.
I used to love their games for their atmosphere and general art-direction but, their laziness has started to show and is now long in the tooth...
asset upon asset reuse, be that textures, animations, sounds and the ever NPCs speaking with a closed mouth - and least we forget, their cryptic, bullshit way of story telling via item description etc, something which not only has ran its course but it also feels lazy by 202X standards.
Add to that technical incompetency which can only be rivaled by the likes of companies like...Bloober Team and...yeah.
To be frank, I don't think they care anymore, they've found their niche, their fanbase does all the heavy lifting and hype (dudes like Vaati making a living creating lore videos), they've created their own genre , everyone's copying them and they're laughing all the way to the bank, that's why they've been using the same G'damn engine for more than 15 years now, that's why they keep recycling assets and content, their fan(boy)-base will never fault them for anything and they know it.
Sekiro and Bloodborne are 2 of my GOAT games but this shit can't go on like this and now, they're adding insult to injury by taking the MP, extraction/roguelite/whatever the fuck route for all the cool kiddies that play these games just for the (idiotic) "git gud" factor that like watching "THIS BUILD WILL DESTROY ALL BOSSES !11!1", "How to make Malena CRY" and "infinite farming spot" videos YouTube.

No, because the user in question shows my users are lenient when FROM is the subject. Every other company would be the joke of the week if launchs a game, for example, if a map as useless as Shadow of the Erdtree, for example.Blocking someone just for disagreeing?

This game was so much fun in the beta, I can't always find time to play a game for more than 1 hour sessions and each game if you can complete the 3 cycles should last 60 minutes in total.
Perfect for a jump on and play fromsoftware game!
I hate co-op but once every understands what to do it will be absolutely fine to play with random people.
Collector's edition pre-orderd, helmet pre-orderd, shadow of the ERDTREE vinyl pre-orderd... Bring it!

Can´t believe I`m saying this about a From-game but:
"Thanks, I´ll pass."
"Thanks, I´ll pass."
Looks fun, but I'm still having a hard time getting excited about it. Seems like there should be more skill options than just a static set for 8 characters, should be more than just three relic slots for character advancement (and why are they all generic looking crystals, could easily be differentiated better). Reused bosses, one map that's a remixed Limgrave...feels like $40 is asking a lot when it comes off as low effort compared to Erdtree or a main release.
