Colonel Whitey posted:Lol I'm right there with you. My hype levels are reaching MGSV status and I'm worried Lol same, I have a horrible track record for games I get crazy hyped for(Cyberpunk/Anthem). I was hyped for Sekiro and that delivered so I'll still trust Fromsoft. Btw Miyazaki in the Japanese Famitsu interview said the game is easier than Sekiro and difficulty is closer to DS3 just cause you have so much options. Also he is implying you can swap weapon artes to any weapon so you can get like the dagger shadow step while wielding an axe? Not sure if he means exactly that but I guess we will get more info on Bandai's stream tomorrow. Also this is their biggest game and you can't ride horses in Co-op but can roam the open world.

Very sad to see a developer fall from grace like this, but i suppose this is just the way it goes in these dark times.

I think building it up to be the ultimate game of all time like Cyberpunk is bound to lead to disappointment, but Miyazaki has yet to miss once and the game has had plenty of time in the oven so taken on its own terms I expect it to still be an extremely good game. Just go in expecting Big Dark Souls and I doubt you'll be let down

Just go in expecting Big Dark Souls and I doubt you'll be let down I think the trailer has set very clear expectations. This is classic FROM gameplay with some new tools and more variety, in a more open explorable world. I don't think they're attempting anything so ambitious or outside of their comfort zone that there's any reason to worry. It'll probably be more of the same but on a larger scale, and that'll be fine for the vast majority of fans as long as the world and enemy design is still on the level we've come to expect.

giZm posted:Even the worst parts of DS2 were better than Sekiro okay look we all have fun telling joke's around here but some things are just beyond the pale Lid posted:One main theme of the main bosses of the game, in particular, are that they are essentially demigods – and characters who are written, again, by George R.R. Martin – and they inherited the mad tainted power of the Elden Ring shards once it was shattered. We wanted to depict these beings as not just creatures and horrible monsters, but have an element of heroism and an element of mythology to them. can't wait to fight the boss that's a lady with diarrhea

lih posted:Yeah he says this in the IGN interview too and it's very clear - weapon arts ("skills" now) are unrelated to weapons now so you can mix and match skills (of which there are over 100) and weapons rather than each weapon having its own special skill like in DS3. Hope we can equip multiple skills / change them during fights like spells. Give us Deception Arts quote:Hyena Kick

If FROM releases a Souls-like game that doesn't have at least one enemy with the exact moveset and animations of the red-eye knights from Demon's Souls then I would consider it a failure

Hopefully this is the Dark Souls with actually good weapon variety and build options since they've been strangling the life out of those two things ever since they started patching Dark Souls 2, culminating in Dark Souls 3. Luv 2 have lots of dogshit magic. Praise the straight sword brother.

I don’t see the problem with reused assets. How many ways can you really animate someone swinging a sword

Are the locations just creating a backdrop for travel between key points, as in Shadow of the Colossus , or are question marks scattered throughout the map, as in The Witcher? BotW style free self-directed exploration with more meaningful stuff to find and greater emphasis on character development.

I like the implication that Miyazaki was very subtly bristled by the Russian interviewer dogging BOTW for some reason.

I'm one of the handful of weirdos that did not enjoy Breath of the Wild (and I'm a huge Zelda fan). [boots up Elden Ring and is handed an ipad] NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

i essentially 100%'ed breath of the wild so i can't say that i hated it but i think my anecdote most emblematic of it in its entirety is whipping out the best sword i had to clear out an enemy encampment and using it until it broke, and then opening the unlocked chest to find as a reward the exact same sword i just used up, rendering the whole thing utterly pointless

Yeah one of the many reasons I couldn't get into it is I like finding a cool weapon and using that for a whole game. As an example in Dark Souls 3 I ran with the Butcher Knife through the whole game and it drops early in the third-ish area.

I really did enjoy botw but what it was missing was proper dungeons (aside from hyrule castle). Which elden ring will have. Also finding new weapons/gear in elden ring will kick rear end, unlike botw where they just break.

i'm glad they're broadening their horizons and implementing lots of different things but if you can't roll through every type of attack then i will have to refund the game. that's the only thing i can do. i've tried
