This is gonna be ass like Nightrein

Absolutely not, Miyazaki is actually directing this one and Miyazaki hasn’t missed in over a decade

This isn’t a roguelike/battle royale co-op team based thing. It’s gonna be an adventure like bloodborne but you’re online with other hunters.

no the f*** we ain’t!

assreign.

Yall mad as heck I loved Bloodborne and I really like what I see in The Duskbloods.

I'll accept this if they port Bloodborne to PC

Where are you getting this from

The ads I’ve seen online are describing it as an adventure, which makes sense because the trailer itself had way more story than the nightreign trailer. The actual description in the press release makes the PvP part sound more like how it is in the usual fromsoft games, where you’re competing with other hunters or whatever they’re called. It’s not co-op or roguelike so I think it’ll be vastly different from nightreign.

Also obviously nightreign isn’t directed by Miyazaki, so that’s primarily why it feels so different than fromsofts formula.

I think this will be a lot closer to what we think of when we think of the classic formula, just tweaked a bit, and him directing it basically seals the deal for me personally but I understand some skepticism.

Multiplayer i’m fine with (still with fromsoft i prefer a single player PVE experience), i’m also hype for Night Reign

But this s*** this s*** pains me, a return to a Bloodborne esque setting but it’s a Switch exclusive??? I’ll probably never play this s***, and it makes me super mad. I just don’t have the time and money to be buying a switch just to play this. The fact that it’s a PVP centric game does soften the pain a bit tho

Their art dept. never miss tho, s*** looks so f***ing clean again with 2 upcoming multiplayer focused titles and an alleged “new skins dlc” for ER, i’m truly hoping this isn’t the moment we see FS sell out like every other gaming company before them, that would suck balls

SONY NEEDS TO WAKE TF UP AND DO A BB REMASTER OR GREENLIT A SEQUEL OR SOMETHING

I don’t think this will be a spiritual successor to BB, it’s a vampire game and vampire stuff is usually set in victorian gothic cities.

There’s no way Miyazaki would do a spiritual successor to his personal favorite work and then make it an exclusive again, and not even a single player campaign at that too

Miyazaki has stated before that he loves BB and would like to return to that world, but Sony owns the IP and it’s up to them

Duskbloods sounds like the working title for Sinners.

There’s a yharnam hunter hat in the trailer and the plot is about a group of people that enhance themselves using blood, also it’s called duskbloods and has similar gothic architecture vibes.

The only reason it’s not outright referencing specific things is because Sony owns the IP let’s be honest

No, it’s all very surface level from what we see. And FS re-uses a lot of themes. Just bc it has blood related stuff and some gothic architecture doesn’t make it an actual spiritual succesor to BB. It looks cool, but let’s not do this.

BB isn’t about flying jetpacks and dinosaurs lol. And the setting of BB looks nothing like what we’ve seen in this trailer with the ER esque cliffs, the train etc. It’s just certain imagery that FS likes to use and play with.

DS3 and ER had victorian architecture too, as well as cursed/power enhancing blood. There’s no way in hell Miyazaki will turn his most beloved project ever into a multiplayer game. The whole vibe and atmosphere of BB doesn’t lend itself to that type of gameplay.

I do love that they’re going back to those type of visuals, i’m kind of over the whole standard fantasy stuff. If anything this makes me hype for the next actual mainline souls game directed by Miyazaki

Bloodborne has multiplayer pvp, this is just a different approach. It’s still an adventure and clearly there’s a lot more actual story here in the trailer compared to nightreign for instance which is just a co-op action game with roguelike elements. This seems more like an actual bloodborne successor but with the world changed to not infringe on bloodborne copyright basically lol

Bloodborne had guns and the trick weapons remember, jet packs isn’t that far really.

It’s being marketed as a multiplayer game, it looks more like Nightreign with a BB skin. Miyazaki did say recently he’s been inspired by Tarkov. So that makes sense.

If you can’t see the BB stuff is just a visual throwback then idk what to tell you, this doesn’t capture what BB is about at all. Have you played BB or are you just going off the fact that it’s gothic architecture and blood related stuff (bc vampires)

I don’t think you know what a spiritual successor is, I’ve played bloodborne 4 times

It does not mean it’s a sequel or takes place in a similar world even

We’ll see when it comes out, or when Miyazaki speaks on it in 2 days. I don’t buy that this is supposed to be like a BB sequel type situation

You can hardly call it a spiritual succesor when the whole concept of the game seems to be totally different.

I want something BB related just as much as the next man but i’ll bet my life savings on this feeling totally different when it actually comes out

I know that, but just saying we could easily call this another Elden Ring spin off or spiritual succesor then.

More in terms of multiplayer stuff like ER, i saw a split second of some sort of mount like ER, it has the cliffs like ER, the magic looks like ER magic and nothing like the ARC magic in BB at all

It’s just a totally new thing for FS with the visual callbacks like they always do since they occupy this niche of what they like to make

Then maybe he wanted to return to that world in this way? I don't think Nintendo forced him to make a multiplayer game, considering their past online infrastructures

guessing it’ll be “multiplayer” in the way that nightreign is “co-op”, meaning we learn later that you can player single player
