Support NeoGAF

[Endo Punk]

A huge flying mind flayer was also mentioned in the last leak thread. That has me most hyped.

 

[John Rabbit]

I will boogie down once they unleash the Beast.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Lol, c'mon man, you know Gaf.

Sorry, I know. You're right. The consensus here is that Vanquish was a great game too. They know not what they do.

I'm glad someone loves the terrible games. All games need love.

Haha, I like you. I disagree with everything you've said so far though but still haha. I'm questioning why you're posting in this thread though.

Why's he have to be Dark spirit Cornelius??! Huh?! Huh??!

Racial!



Edit

Sarcasm just in case it needs to be said

Goddamn I love this gif. If that's a mind flayer it's quite the departure from the ones in Latria. I like it though, truly looks like something from a twisted nightmare.

You will procreate for the greater good of our species.

[Krakn3Dfx]

you mean they'll all be left behind, massacred by the much better games that will come out? Then yes, agreed.

Dreams are nice tho.

awesome 5555th post lol

Its a fascinating thread full of madness, dreams and despair. It is all the best of human drama in text form. Plus, From Software has been able to develop such a rabid fan base it makes me envious. I want to care about something, anything, half as much as some here care about this. I admire the passion.

 

[viveks86]

Just noticed on the GIF above that the light seems to move with the character, like a spotlight on stage. But the way the shadow is cast makes me think the character is carrying it in front of him. Could it be some kind of lamp around his neck?

Haven't all the Souls games projected some light around the character?

Augite of Souls?

 

[Bloodrage]

Yep. Don't remember that shadow cast though.

 

[viveks86]

Augite of Souls?

Ahh. That makes sense.

Yep. Don't remember that shadow cast though.

Same here. That's what threw me off. I guess it's just more realistic lighting for the Augite of Souls

From Software has simply made niche games that catered to an audience that wasn't being served before. There are literally thousands of examples of internet communities formed around creations and products like that.

In such communities you also often find someone craving for attention - they join in to say "this product, which you're all excited for and I know nothing about, will suck" or "I don't understand you rabid, mad fans - be better people and rational like myself." It's not really a mystery either, science explains such behavior quite well.

Not really fascinating stuff if you ask me, just the same old.

Best Beast Post.

Now I have seen it all!

 

[qream]

sorry,i just don't think a ps4 is worth 400$. that's all. great console, mega power, but too high of a price for me for one game.

I'm pretty sure you'll find other games to play on a console that's not on PC.

 

[disappeared]

This thread took a strange turn in the past twenty pages. That being said, "Soul Train" is gold.

 

[Morrigan Stark]

Hahahahaha <3

 

[Sword Of Doom]

I know its probably been joked about before. Imagine if it was a PS3 game LOLOLOL. I think with all the hype they would deffo just port it to ps4, I just think it would be tragically funny, after all this hype. If it was ps3 exclusive lol

That wouldn't surprise me one bit

 

[Morrigan Stark]

Worse: it's a Vita game after all!

Spoiler

*makes holy anti-jinx sign*

 

[Respawn]

Perfect

 

[orochi91]

Ahh.
Same here. That's what threw me off. I guess it's just more realistic lighting for the Augite of Souls

I wonder how the lighting in this game will compare to pre-release Dark Douls 2

 

[Hugstable]

I'm so hyped for this game to finally be officially announced in just a little over a week! Screw all the bullshit, I'm just glad to see another Miyazaki directed Souls style game coming out, even if it isn't a souls game and more of an evolution on that series. Seeing those Webms today for me pretty much sealed the deal that this game is happening.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

Worse: it's a Vita game after all!

Spoiler

*makes holy anti-jinx sign*

But I love Vita games

how well do these soul's game sell?

 

[Sword Of Doom]

off topic but I hope sony actually spend less time with indie games on their presentation and spend more on the wowzers... like this one.

Oh and less destiny please. god. I know I will play the game one day but is 10+ minute really necessary?

What they did with the indie developers on stage last year was one of my favorite E3 moments. It's was very sincere. I hope they do something similar this year

 

[Squalor]

how well do these soul's game sell?

Dark Souls was at 2.5 million in the fall of last year.

Dark Souls II was at 1.2 million at the beginning of May.

 

[viveks86]

What if it looks as good as DAI?

 

[qream]

Sorry, I know. You're right. The consensus here is that Vanquish was a great game too. They know not what they do.

I'm glad someone loves the terrible games. All games need love.

Vanquish was a decent game. I wouldn't put it anywhere near the soul series though.

 

[orochi91]

What if it looks as good as DAI?

I question From/SCE-JS capabilities when it comes to making games as
technically impressive and grand in scope, like Dragon Age: Inquisition.

I hope for the best.

 

[LookAtMeGo]

I want to see video of these parts

 

[Sword Of Doom]

I would say go for Demon's first. The hub nature is good cause you can always go back and try a different world if you're stuck, and you can carry a shit ton of healing items,if needed. Not saying this in an offending way, mind you! I'm just saying that it's probably better to start from the game where it all started, as Dark Souls' builds upon that foundation. Some things are easier (practically no limit for healing items or magic uses, hub world makes it easier to explore without getting lost) while some are harder (weight limit, some bosses are nasty, world 5 is worse than blighttown imo).

Some bosses are a bit hard for new players (more than Dark Souls, imo) but you'll be fine if you are a patient person. The game isn't "hard"..it just punishes impatience and recklessness. If you keep an eye out for trouble, don't try to fight 3 enemies at once and don't heal like crazy in the middle of a fight (make sure you have the time to do it first) you'll be fine..

Basically use your intelligence. You make it sound awesome

 

[Hypron]

Sorry, I know. You're right. The consensus here is that Vanquish was a great game too. They know not what they do.

I'm glad someone loves the terrible games. All games need love.

And the consensus would be right. It's a good game.

 

[Phoenician_Viking]

Im pretty afraid pubisoft will be on stage to show far cry 4.

15 minute AC:U boring deo with crashes and all.

 

[condompickle]

I'm pretty sure you'll find other games to play on a console that's not on PC.

already have an xbone and wii u. pc is my gaf browser. although i did hit up bl2 before. new monitor is amazing.
ot. game looks super amazing. can't wait to not play it until a price drop.

 

[Banana Aeon]

Sorry, I know. You're right. The consensus here is that Vanquish was a great game too. They know not what they do.

I'm glad someone loves the terrible games. All games need love.

Hating on Vanquish should be a crime.

All TPS look up to it. Vanquish's mechanics are poetry in motion.

 

[butman]

Hope that in this gen we will have 2 exclusive Sony Beast Souls games and not only one like past one. Yes i'm talking about Demon's Souls, not Dark.

Don't care if the second one is released on the final stage of this gen. But this time i want 2 games Sony!

 

[hitsugi]

I assumed this was it:

Also I don't see a mention of it flying

huh... never looked at like that. although since it's supposed to be giant, it kind of does fit the bill.

 

[Jaeger]

I keep re-watching the leaked footage. It's glorious. Things I'm sure was discussed, but just mentioning it again;

Guy has a huge backstep. Freaking awesome.
Love that "switchblade sword". Too pimp.
Running animation seems to be directly from Dark Souls.
Draw distance was crazy long in a few shots, nice!

 

[bigboss370]

I see this character referenced all the time. What's so great about her?

"Soul of the lost, withdrawn from its vessel
May strength be granted so the world might be mended...
So the world might be mended..."

 

[N.Domixis]

1 million here and another 1.5 million here for a game that hasn't even been announced.

Never change, NeoGAF. THE HYPE DOESNT STOP

Yep its crazy, this hype is genuine, not manufactured.

 

[DeejayKnight]

Sweet jeezus, this game looks amazing.

All the want.

 

[Jomjom]

Yep its crazy, this hype is genuine, not manufactured.

Sadly come E3 this will be overshadowed by the next shooty bro game that the press decides to give all of its meaningless awards to.
