You'll be able to use premium currency to bypass some of the grinding and unlock certain beacons, so it's not that big a deal.

plus if you do all 40 of the tailing side missions you get a trinket that lets you light beacons twice as fast

http://imgur.com/nVoYiO1 Screenshot of item screen showing stats. Not sure what Mind is. Maybe the new Resistance stat. Also, we have Faith, Intelligence, and Arcane at the bottom. Wonder if Int will be for spell slots and Arcane for magic damage. And Faith for faith damage of course. Or will there be different Arcane magic. Equip load and poise there too. Who knows how poise will work. We know enemy posture is a thing. Dunno how it works for the player.

People need to stop making jokes about how this game will be bad and like an Ubisoft game because their jokes are making me cry I would guess from its location that Mind replaces Attunement/increases your FP. Arcane is probably for a third type of magic, pyro/dark or whatever. Maybe Bloodborne style off-beat magic tools

Couple things: - I love how many sounds and animations seem to come right out of Dark Souls 3, it's kind of great. Like it even has the same "an enemy just died" sound. - That map is absolutely beautiful.

Also it sounds like weapon arts are back but maybe not tied to specific weapons this time--the narration mentions special moves that can be interchanged between weapons.

My favorite part of the presentation is when the player's talks to the NPC who's like "don't go through the front gate," and the player goes, "Nah I think I will," then is immediately owned and has to run away I've chosen not to look at the wider gaming Discourse about this but I have to imagine there's a lot of griping about just how much is reused from Dark Souls, from the animations (estus chugging is back!) to the bonfires to the model used for chests, returning spells, the same leveling system (except it's runes instead of souls this time), all of that. Either that or people are just happy to see Dark Souls 4: This Time It's Open World. I admit I was sort of expecting a bigger departure but I mean, poo poo, I like the whole Souls thing so if we're just doing another slight variation on that I'm very happy to go along for the ride.

I noticed there's one attack that I'm pretty sure is the same as the Mortal Draw from Sekiro (minus the huge effect during the attack): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m3MNCu5fUak&t=845s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-WDA6C-4VtQ&t=22s

Honestly, if reusing animations lets then focus more on level/world/enemy design then hell I'm all for it. Helps that Souls usually has great animations anyway.

thus we now have the whole equation and can deduce that the thing dividing good games from the bad is the presence of, or lack thereof, a teleporting horse

I haven't seen the whole video yet, nor have I read the thread's responses yet, but I want to post right here, right now, that I love Alexander the Pot, and if you dare try to harm this precious boi I will end you motherfucker. Also knowing GRRM made the background setting for this I bet Alexander was secretly a huge badass in the past.

I'm just happy the crowd of people who like open world beacon lighting map unlocking crafting games with an animal companion where you can crouch walk to avoid generic enemy encounters that give you incremental pieces of loot are finally getting another game. looks like it's missing walk and talk missions but I'm sure they can add some if the fans request it

It looks amazing of course though the one minor dungeon they showed looked an awful lot like a chalice dungeon. I guess it's not surprising they would do them like that given the huge scope of the game world.
