So it's Sekiro Souls...
Was hoping for something different, but hey might as well stick to what you're good at if you MUST succeed.
Different don't pay the bills. How many people played or gave a shit about this:

Summoning not only involves PvE but there is a lot of diversity in NPC summons and apparently non-human creatures, like the bird you see on one of the screenshots. Your mount could be just one of such creature summons.
At least that was the case in some very old screenshots leaked among journos that never made it to the public. Neogaf exclusive![]()
Im gonna get hate for this because lots of people waited forever for this but 2022 game that looks like a game from 2014....textures are trash. I mean make some fucking effort, graphics are not everything but...comon.
Watch your back bro.So it's Sekiro Souls...

I’m very, very pleased. Art direction looks straight out of DS2 which is my favourite Dark game (I know it’s uncool to like DS2, whatever, suck it up).
This is going to be one hell of a game.

You're not alone. DS2 my favorite too.
While George RR Martin has been writing The Winds of Winter, From Software have shipped:
Dark Souls
Dark Souls 2
Dark Souls 3
Bloodborne
Deracine
Sekiro
and now Elden Ring.
Fuck you George.
Oh, don't get me wrong - I fucking love the look of ER and think it looks better than BB in many areas. And it's all real-time lighting, too! Certain areas and creature designs in BB are better, but it's also tackling a different theme; Lovecraftian gothic horror requires a bit more raw detail for monster + area design. That being said, those sun rays in ER... damnRespect bro. Very well put. But I can't see how people think BB looks better tbh. ER much cleaner and lighting more nuanced from what I saw. Also I think models look more detailed.
Precisely, i keep hearing those nonsense, when Bluepoint didn't even have to lift a finger on gameplay design. All BP did was animation, and graphic fidelity, even the design is not theirs. It's still a huge task btw, but nowhere as huge when you need to make new concept design and gameplay mechanics from scratch.So Blue Point takes a finished linear game and takes years working on solely the graphics to be compatible with PS5 only and we expect an open world game made from the ground up for hardware from 2012 and expect it to be technically as impressive? That was Blue Points sole purpose, making something for current gen only for one hardware specification. No original ideas, no having to think up a story or new enemies, weapons, etc. Shit isn't fair at all.
The pandemic delayed ER for sure. I bet this was supposed to come out at the end of last gen or in March of this year at the latest. It looks amazing to me despite all of that.
I wonder what engine is powering it?
This is true. I constantly see graphic comparison threads much more active than actual game OT discussions threads on a regular basis. Honestly all of those Game PS5 vs Game XSX comparison threads are the worst.Currently 90% of NeoGAF becoming obnoxious level of graphic whores. Just looks DF threads we get for fuck sake, they have this childish argument over couple of pixels and frames. I shouldn't be surprise this this type of reaction in place where they value graphics over everything else.
I’ve been saying this for some time among friends. Digital Foundry is poisoning gaming culture with their FPS and pixel autism the same way Twitter politics have poisoned the fabric of society.This is true. I constantly see graphic comparison threads much more active than actual game OT discussions threads on a regular basis. Honestly all of those Game PS5 vs Game XSX comparison threads are the worst.
Yeah but open-world I hope and fully open. It's the last type of souls game I hope too. Animations looking decidedly last gen. For me it will be the systems that will matter most. If it's too similar to dark souls then I will be disappointed. I want something fresh and new or basically Bloodborne 2.so it's demon/dark souls all over again . ok as i said I'll pass![]()
"The framerate dropped from 60 to 58 fps for 2 second, this game is literally UnPlAyAbLe !"the pleasure is getting those sweet 2 extra frames. It’s a pandemic with no end in sight.
By 2022 a lot more folk are going to be rocking next gen systems too, folks who say this looks fine haven't tasted that sweet demon souls remake nectar yet.
It plays exactly like every other Souls game.Not really, other than Idol which serves as bonfire, it play nothing like Souls series, its FROM's take on action game.
You're saying Sekiro is playing exactly like others Soulsborne ?It plays exactly like every other Souls game.
No different then the miserable people that can't stand different opinions from their own. Opinions are so strange. How do they work?So many miserable people coming to this thread to tell us how salty they are about Elden Ring, a game they were never going to play because there isn't an easy mode. So weird.![]()
I would say Bloodborne was quite the showcase at the time. I remember getting it on launch day and having that next-gen feeling when playing it. But I also think that came from Japan Studios technical support.Visually this is very unimpressive. I mean, yeah, it's cross-gen, but it looks bad even for a last gen open world game. But From has never really made technically impressive games I suppose.
Will get day 1 anyway.

Honestly, it does look like a PS3 Remaster - but I couldn’t care less.

I’m not naming names here, but there are some folks in this thread complaining that Elden Ring looks last gen, who I’ve also seen in other threads claiming cross gen doesn’t hold games back.

This game has to function on base Ps4 and Xbox One. Of course it’s not going to break graphical boundaries.
Good job it doesn’t need to, to be an amazing game.
I wouldn't mind if it was cross-gen, but not cross cross-gen. Good for ps3 only players I guess.
But it's not a downer in the slightest that it resembles a From Software game. That's a huge plus actually. Souls fans are relieved that From has maintained their get design ethics with this project.No different then the miserable people that can't stand different opinions from their own. Opinions are so strange. How do they work?
Personally I'll reserve final judgment until the game releases...until then all I see is Dark Souls 4.
It looks like a duck. Quacks like a duck. Moves like a duck. And people want to say it's the sexiest swan they've ever seen. Whatever starts your bonfire.
Elden Ring won't need an easy mode. After you die to everything and know where everything is the game becomes much easier. Much like any Souls game ever.
This shot screamed Cersei and The Mountain, in a Grimm's Fairy Tale like setting.From at its best, the art style is straight fire.

He’s the laziest bastard in publishing history.
not a chance this comes out in jan i think march to may.

I disagree.Bloodborne released the same year as Witcher 3, Arkham Knight, Phantom Pain, and Fallout 4. It wasn't impressive from any technical standpoint. Just good art direction.
