Nice! Even tho the first game felt a bit short and disappointingly cheap at times with everything two shotting u with high-speed attacks out of nowhere, I am still super excited for this. The surge 2 has a huge potential to be superb. Lets just hope it has more weapons and deeper rpg mechanics.

UCForce3033d ago

So do I. I did enjoy the first one. Hopefully, the sequel will improve it.

8bitswarrior3033d ago

Good news! loved the first one!

KeeseToast3033d ago

Say what you want about those games, but i'm impressed how Deck13 manages to deliver them in a 3-year cycle with around 50 employees. They are definitely running a tight ship, good for them!

coolbeans3033d ago

At the same time, that only makes me wonder how much crunch those employees go through to reach that 3-year cycle.

Yohshida3033d ago

Oh wow, I really thought the game didnt do that well. Good news!

Kocurstvo3033d ago

Great news. Would like to see Lords of the Fallen 2 as well...

FalloutWanderer20773033d ago (Edited 3033d ago )

Pretty sure LOTF 2 is currently in development as well. Hopefully we get some solid info/trailer at E3. Last I read anything was July 2017, so we could see LOTF 2 release late 2019, early 2020.

* Then again it's not looking good after reading this article - http://www.eurogamer.net/ar...
2 years without leaving pre-production does not bode well, on top of losing one of the leading devs Tomasz Gop. Before working on LOTF, Tomasz Gop was apart of CD Projekt Red working on both Witcher 1 & Witcher 2 dev.
Shame that CI Games let him go. I hope that we eventually get a LOTF sequel, I thought it was pretty good, and before the Surge came along, it was the first notable Souls-like game.

Maybe Tomasz can return to CDPR, if they left on good terms they could probably use all the help they can get with Cyberpunk 2077 and future titles.

FalloutWanderer20773033d ago (Edited 3033d ago )

Scratch my last sentence. Gop is working on a new game by Destructive Creations known for the infamous and controversial game 'Hatred'. Their new game is a medieval RTS game called Ancestors Legacy. I'm not really into the RTS genre but have to admit Ancestors looks intriguing.

Demon's Souls isn't Soulslike. It's the original Souls game. WTF? And Elden Ring?

Another Crab's Treasure simply is not.

All the journos claiming things are "Soulslike" simply don't know what that word means.

GeeEssEff473d ago

The term “Soulslike” has become ridiculously diluted. I have seen it used for games just because they are difficult.

Cacabunga473d ago

Reminds me of Doom like back in the days for every FPS game

blackblades473d ago (Edited 473d ago )

Yeah, souls, souls lite, souls like same goes for rogue.

anast472d ago

It's either AI or the writer doesn't know the subject matter.

robtion473d ago

I've played all of these bar the Crab one so not a very accurate title.

Goodguy01473d ago (Edited 473d ago )

Nioh 1+2 imo are the best souls clone. Love the melee combat and ki system, really hoping team ninja doesn't abandon the IP and continue with a new title, hell just give us your take on the western fantasy setting for a new nioh game.

robtion473d ago

Yes Nioh 2 in particular is great. Also Wo Long (which is basically Nioh 3).

qalpha473d ago

Should have included 'Lies of P'. Seriously fun game.

Nacho_Z472d ago

That's what I was going to say, great game. Best non From Soulslike I've played.

jznrpg168d ago

Lies of P and Wuchang Fallen Feathers are best soulsikes to me. I slightly prefer Wuchang ut they’re both awesome. I’d say Black Myth Wukong too but it’s a little more action than most souls games but it could fit in there as well.

Just going through DS 2 now, it's really not a bad game.

LoveSpuds1370d ago

I thinks it's a fantastic game personally, even the weakest DS game in the series is better than most other action RPGs in my opinion.

Hope you enjoy your playthrough chief 👍

GoodGuy091370d ago (Edited 1370d ago )

It was a great game, there is no souls game from fromsoft that was bad. My only complaints were the visuals and bosses were a bit too easy. Other than that it was very fun and probably the only soulsbourne game I played nonstop and beat in just a couple of weeks pre-elden ring (Well, it took me to beat three other soulsborne games which took me years to beat to finally actually get hooked to souls, so I was very hungry for more souls lol).

People didn't like it because of no Miyazaki and the only game I really loved from him was just Bloodborne (Ofc the rest were great games too). Bloodborne is my #1, Ds2 is my #2.

lonewolf101370d ago

Yeah bosses are not exactly hard that I have come across so far. The graphics are a mixed bag, Scholar of the First Sin on PC with no mods.
Admission time even though I own all Souls games day one editions across the formats, Elden Ring was the only one that really clicked with me to a point I had to finish it. Now going back to ones released on PC to finish those or try to. Bloodborne I wish would come to PC but I might fire up my PS 4 again to play it.

Ramboforlife1369d ago

It's wonky here and there, but it's still fun to play and a great world to explore.

Jiub1370d ago

People gave DS2 way too much hate.

saint_seya1370d ago

Im one of the few that loved the game, i think im like like lvl 550 or something like that.

1370d ago
Father__Merrin1370d ago

If you haven't played Ashen yet it's worth a go very good game

_Decadent_Descent1370d ago

Demon's Souls was a 2009 release.
