Are you Marty McFly?
Hmmm, I don't think The Order should move over as they are from 2 different genres. If anything, it should be the likes of Skyrim and other western RPGs that should be a little threatened by the increasing popularity of whatever Miyazaki is working on.
Awesome article. I really do hope that what the devs say in this interview are we are going to experience when the game launches. We could have the next QD if this game becomes successful!
This is good news, but please don't release towards the end of the same year this game launches in Japan. :P
Thanks for your inputs. I'm feeling tingly inside about items 2 and 3 to be honest. This beast/human form can open a system similar to Demon's Souls' world/personal tendency.
Imagine while in Human form, some locales will help you and give you more hints about some secrets/secret locations. Conversely, while in Beast-like form, you will have the chance to fight certain human NPCs and gain items.
Ok, I'll stop now. I'm geeking out!!! :D
Awesome atmosphere and setting. I dunno why, but I've always been intrigued and pleased by this kind of dark and dreary environment. My fascination with the 19th centruy London is at its peak because of this game.
For discussion: I'm now beginning to have more questions about this game, good questions mind you:
1. Now that there will be no hollow form (soul form), does this mean the coop system is much more grounded? Like how Journey implemented there...
The hype for this game is so intense, we get 3-4 good articles about it everyday on average. Look at other game spaces here on N4G, games spaces for newly announced games at E3, and you'll discover that only Bloodborne's game space gets updated every few hours.
I bet Miyazaki never thought of becoming this lauded and revered when he first started working on Demon's Souls.
Sounds like Xenosaga minus world exploration.
The best way for SE to regain their glory is to re-assess their current approach with JRPGs; they need to rediscover their original vision and innovate from there.
Shuhei Yoshida once said, even if you're game is Japanese, as long as it's good, it will sell and be critically praised. Look at Bravely Default. It's FF in all the right places and yet people demand for it.
SE, all you need to do is embrace yourself and your roots, not Western games. A...
I liked the article in general. However, one statement that I feel the need to comment on is this: "While moving about was satisfying enough, attacking almost always felt sticky and needlessly slow. I get that it was all part of the challenge and entices a more defensive strategy rather than Hack N’ Slash, but fighting creatures in Dark Souls was uncomfortable as a gamer."
~ I disagree on this. The combat was not needlessly slow in DeSo and DaSo, it was part of the ...
Mine are :
1. Bloodborne
2. Uncharted 4 (This could've been at the top of my list hadn't Bloodborne got announced in the presscon.)
3. The Order: 1886
4. LBP3
5. Batman: Arkham Knight
I hope it's a proper, non-F2P title from Capcom. I have nothing against F2P, it's just that I personally can't find myself that invested in this type of thing.
My take: It's an action-adventure game set in ancient China. Maybe an Onimusha-esque game only set in China!
Can someone wake me up around spring time next year? Thanks... zzzzzzzz...
Well I hope so. However, I would rather Sony space out their exclusive games so they get legs. I won't mind playing Bloodborne sometime in July (summer in the States) as long as the game receives an excellent amount of polish.
But at the end of the day, I'm just a gamer, and would buy whatever games available for the PS4.
Somewhat off-topic: Has it ever appeared to you guys the reason why Demon's Souls, DkS1, and DkS2 didn't have that awesome...
That's cool. I admit that the Xbox One will release a few more exclusives than Sony this year, but I'm not fazed. I'm cool because Sony will release DriveClub and LBP 3 this year for the PS4. It's cool because the PS3 will see the release of a few more games like Persona 5, Tales of Xillia 2, and Tales of Zestiria.
To put it simply: I'm confident that the longest console support I will get in the form of the PS4, and the games will always be out-pouring in...
@Darrius and Logic: I'm sorry to hear that the core mechanic of death in Demon's Souls scared you away; I guess this is the reason why From's Souls series have been considered a niche title.
That said, this core mechanic is also what makes the game excellent for a lot of people; otherwise, From won't be making Bloodborne now.
I guess modern games these days can be blamed somewhat - with all the handholding, ease of access, and all that.
I think the reason why some horror games are great just by running away from crazed monsters is because you are not familiar with them yet. In Alien: Isolation, the main threat's identity, the Alien, is already known to most gamers. This makes the game a little bit less terrifying.
@Ocsta: It's been confirmed that there will many qeapons to acquire in this game. To make this statement a lot more true, watch this video:
https://www.youtube.com/wat...
I believe it's confirmed that there will be many weapons to acquire. And, all of them have a secondary form you can switch to, just like the weapon in the trailer!
I'm curious about the "The Final Battle" text towards the end of the video. Though this game hasn't come out yet, I don't want this series to end. Or maybe it's The Final Battle with someone and not actually the final Tekken game.
Regarding the video: I'm excited about Kazumi. I wonder what movesets she has.
