They should've used Bloodborne's phantom glow.

>>329454346
No, it looks dumb and dorky as fuck.
>>
>>329454398

They look like otherwordly beings, people who don't belong in your game (which they don't).

Shitborne's glob looks like regular in game lightning which makes it confusing.

I know most of you guys haven't played Bloodborne, but purple baddies are in Bloodborne
Probably will work the same way too: both players in rival covenants, one wants help, other goes to be summoned, is summoned as a purple phantom and instead of co-op, you fight

There was also a 5% chance to fight instead of co-op for the Hunter of Hunters covenant, didn't matter if you had invaded or killed NPCs or not
>>
>>329454350
Doesn't fit IMO. Not nearly as iconic as the full glow.

Large as fuck swords would never be carried in battle in a scabbard. Over the shoulder is correct.

It's from the covenant of the Undead Legion

They're called mad phantons now and apparently bowel bones(the item you get from killing a purple ghost) are the covenant item.

They're supposed to be phantoms; physical manifestations
Not actually a person crossing gaps of the dream like Bloodborne

I hope it still makes the low whirring sound noise when you idle from Demon's/Dark Souls

I'll miss Bloodborne's, it didn't shit up your armour sets with a disgusting cartoon glow. That full glow shit looks utterly ridiculous for an otherwise relatively serious medieval dark fantasy game.

The subtle glow in Bloodborne was much nicer.
>>
I've lost track of Bloodsouls.

Is there a neutral phantom faction yet? Like, "I don't know what the fuck this guy wants in my world, he could kill enemies or kill me or both": The Faction.
>>
>>329455064
some anon explained why they went with the full shitty low quality trash glow.
apparently it will affect performance and Xbone is already weak as fuck

Does that mean we can kiss goodbye to the dynamic lighting from BB? Please say it ain't so.

I disliked it, it looked silly

Dark Souls II did something right with the phantoms; you got 2 black phantom colours, one for not being part of a covenant and one for being in the brotherhood of blood

I just don't like the fact they chose purple
I know we got white, red/black, blue/black and yellow but why not something like... inverted or something

purple is a gay colour, it's gayer than pink because it can't even do just that, be pink

They are, but certainly not because of their looks.
A lot of people hated the effect in Dark Souls and Dark Souls II, ask yourself why they introduced rings that remove it.
Nobody wants to be a black silouhette.
Demon's Souls did it right, because the characters were at least recognizable.
>>
>>329455586

Dark Souls 2 phantom colors were too saturated. Player model needs to be more black than red for black and blue phantoms.
>>
>>329456505
what I was saying is that you had the option for subtle variants of phantoms and they could've gone from there
>>
>>329456494
> ask yourself why they introduced rings that remove it.

Not because of looks, that's for sure. It was for creative gameplay (hiding the host, pretending to be an ally).

Also that looks the same as OP picture, but red instead of purple.

>hating on purple
How fucking pleb can you be?

First of all, purple is shit
It's a crap colour; reds, yellows, oranges, greens and blues are infinitely superior

>>329456494
>thinking the rings were added because people didn't like the glow

Are you retarded?

Guys what if the purple phantom is neither helpful or hurtful, it's just some player who is in your world watching you
>>
>>329457174
Purple phantom covenant is called the Mound-makers. They're an invasion covenant that gets a "shackled vertebra" every time they successfully kill someone, which they offer at an altar to level up in the covenant.

Might be some other rules but that's the gist of it as I understand it. Might be able to get the item other ways but it's certain you can get them from killing other players.
>>
>>329456494
sorry pal, but being recognisable as a phantom in any of the games was all to do with the lighting of the area
In a well lit area, even as a black phantom, details could be picked out

Are you stupid or just shitposting? I'm not fine with either answer
