What do you think will be the perfect setting for a souls game? Futuristic? Aztec? Frontier? Lets talk about it.

>>332227656

I'd like Futuristic. Aztec could be neat. anything other than knighty-knight knight settings, as much as I love dark european fantasy shit.

"Fans often speculate about whether the Souls framework and style of gameplay will ever extend to genres outside of dark fantasy. Have you thought about that, perhaps sci-fi Souls?
Dark Souls is my life’s work. Everything I came up with for Dark Souls 3 is based on my personal preferences. However, Dark Souls 3 is also actually the turning point for the franchise. This project was launched by the previous From Software management, before I was appointed president. In that sense, Dark Souls 3 is the turning point for the series.
As president of From Software, I am planning to launch several new projects. I can’t quite specify exactly what they are. Those could be something sci-fi, but you’ll have to stay tuned for more about that in the future."

DSII came out like it was due to executive meddling rather than poor directorial vision.
I just hope it won't be medieval or atleast european we had 4 games with medieval settings already.
Maybe ancient egyptian or roman perhaps?
Go the EX Troopers route and make it extremely anime.
All I know is that if the next From Software game isn't Souls like then I'm not fucking playing it.

Use knives and axes. Have black powder revolvers so you either carry multiple guns or leave yourself vulnerable while reloading.
>>332227423
Yeah and it will be shit just like every other From Software game prior to Demon's Souls and it will sell like shit and they'll go right back to making Souls like games.

>>332229282
all pretty good games, but shit compared to the souls series
>>332227738
I'm the guy from last thread who said he wanted a Frontier Souls game.
Basically, I envision it as this;
You play as a drifter type, just rolled into camp. Town is seedy as Hell, real Wild West Sodom and Gomorah.
You sit down at a bar, and have a few drinks, next thing you know some local has spiked your drink and you pass out. You wake up in the basement of some boarded up building, with some bizarre Navajo type ritual having taken place with you as the subject (thus explaining your immortality). You get your shit together and decide to find out what the fuck just happened, only when you walk outside, the hell hole of a town you walked into is now a literal Hell hole.
You're faced with backwards locals deep in some pagan shit, spirit world beasts and entities seeking to consume the lands, and a Church at the centre that doesn't seem too bothered about the teachings of Christ anymore.
Basically, Bloodborne but Frontier America.
Fast paced Bloodborne combat with your sidearm as your main and your melee as your secondary.
>>332229375
but the Souls series is the worst thing they made
>>332227423
From will always make Souls game their all other series are unpopular garbage.
They have one thing they are great at and that sells pretty well with a large community.
I don't think they will put it in a trash bin and ''pursue new projects''.
>>332229413
I WANT THIS
>>332229375
Apples and friggen oranges jesus christ. This movement away from Souls can only mean good things. Miyazaki has an eye for direction, and DSIII will be the final game with Bamco so there'll be less fiascos like Dark Souls' second half and the entirety of DSII's development.
I understand it's good to temper your expectations but I really don't see anything too horrible coming out from them.
>>332229469
Let's not be idiots here.
>>332229282
Yes, all are major hits like DeS forward.

Yeah, cause it's not like they didn't have plenty of other successful franchises going for them before Souls, right?
>>332229538
Who the hell was talking about money in the previous posts? If we're talking money no shit the Souls games beat out but money isn't the sole indicator of quality in a product this is common knowledge.

it's not like their other ips are bad
Aztec would be perfect for the tone of the games. Surprised I never thought of them using that.

>>332229924
Nobody's saying they can't use a new IP but if the gameplay and story telling isn't Souls like then nobody is going to buy it.
>>332229527
>I understand it's good to temper your expectations but I really don't see anything too horrible coming out from them.
probably not, but I doubt they'll ever make something as innovative, successful and important as the souls games ever again.
I mean, the way Miyazaki talks about the souls games really makes me feel like he was just made to create these games, like they were absolutely perfect for him. He doesn't strike me as some genius director who has a billion of ideas for games.

Even if another Souls game might not ever reach fruition, I would love one with neon lights and flashy weapons ond shit.
>>332229147
>Have black powder revolvers so you either carry multiple guns or leave yourself vulnerable while reloading
This is a great idea.
Make it a hot switch so you can string combos together.
Say your blasting with your six shooter and it's about to run out, time the switch to your rifle just right and you pull of an awesome combo.
Also trick weapons. Dual tomahawk pistols.
>>332230126
What? They can definitely do something that isn't souls-like and still sell. I want to see them try something completely different.

I agree. I don't know why people are saying they're throwing the Souls series away. I'm certain if they fuck up even one title they'll go right back to doing what they do best.
>>332230194
I've heard mixed things about Armored Core so I wouldn't know; I've heard people absolutely loving For Answer and people disdaining it so I can't comment. What I can comment is 3/3 Souls directed games by him were outstanding. Hit, hit, hit.

Warhammer 40k themed Souls game.
It actually makes a lot of sense.
Grimdark, gothic, hopeless setting.
Lore is very fragmented and twisted.
Most characters are morally imbiguous or straight insane.
Godlike powers that pull strings exist but don't interfer directly.
Many conflicting factions with their own agendas and worldviews.
Really fancy artstyle and due to how large the universe spans you can basically do with it whatever you want.
>>332230185

it's the right kind of faggy, the gross and disturbing kind.

He was a software dude for Oracle Corporation prior to making the career change to video games. He worked on Armored Core before Demon's Souls, and he had pretty much total control over Demon's Souls because nobody else wanted/everybody else thought it would suck. He himself made the push for the invasion/summon system, and he got a lot of ridicule because people didn't think you could implement that in the game.
Maybe it was the setting of DeS that got him so fired up, but the fact that he left his cozy software job to work in video games, I definitely think he has ideas for other video games.

>>332230715
>I want a Souls game that doesn't look like a Souls game
Half the appeal of the series is it's aesthetic.
Saying you don't want a grim dark Souls is like saying you do want a grim dark Zelda/Mario/whatever.
It's fundamentally the opposite of what the series is about.

Your quote doesn't say they're moving away from DaS.
FROM are now a rich company after 3 incredibly successful games in a row. They can afford to have more than one team working on games at a time, and worked on BB and DaS2 simultaneously. It's not a stretch for them to keep going on the cash cow that is DaS while working on more exotic projects

>>332230715
>I want a souls game that isn't bleak and grimderp
That is literally the only fucking way these games work. You can't make a souls game that isn't set in a dark, unwelcoming and hostile world. Pulling you into a world like that is literally their main draw. It's the only reason why these games are challenging.
>>332231859
>Great War Souls
That would be sick. Intertwined real combat situations and feverish nightmares where the soldier is suffering shell shock.
>>332229413
I came a little
>>332231859
Those games have shit gameplay though. And Souls is high fantasy
There isn't a dragon dogma 2, sadly
>>332229413
>Fast paced Bloodborne combat with your sidearm as your main and your melee as your secondary
That would be boring as shit
>game designed around fast, 3rd person melee movement
If you keep the same control scheme, then it would be clunky and boring. If you change the control scheme to focus on shooting, then it's not even Soulsborne anymore.

>>332231814
>with the exact same gameplay, and they came out with these every few years, I'd be a contented man.
That's not how it the industry works though.
Annual releases for well established franchises is more profitable and safer.
>>332232228
No, I mean the reason they made these games challenging in the first place.
And that reason is because it adds to the atmosphere. The mechanics are obviously used to create that difficulty.
>>332230697
Rationalise it by saying that body amour is so advanced that bullets are useless, but that there are advances in metallurgy that allow developments in weapons that can penetrate it. That's probably a load of shite though
>>332232469
>Annual releases for well established franchises is more profitable and safer.
True enough but Souls isn't exactly annual. 2009, 2011, 2014, 2016.
>>332232609
That always made sense to me in sci fi settings.
Shit like revengeance, of course a melee weapon is going to do more damage than a ranged weapon. You are putting them on fucking robots with muscles that can lift robots that weight tons! That shit hits you, it's going to make some damage
>>332232640
well, you add dlc and goty editions to that and it pretty much sums up to annual releases
>>332230995
Lore is completely different.
>>332231859
The war is raging for over 200+ years now, the resources are scarce, almost no powder, no fuel for vehicles, bullets are extra rare, people are fighting with sabers, trench clubs, bayonettes. Great warriors rule over the trenches with their mauser k96 gunblades.
Nodoby remembers why the war was started. Nobody remembers when people started return to trenches after their death, almost every soldier forgot how many times he died already.
(+ shellsock nightmares, religious themes, human versus god, deep trenches, witches in far away villages where are no men anymore, giant rats, spirits of sentient tanks and some other mistical shit)
Strange fog covered the battlefield and nobody knows what will happen next.
>>332232923
True enough, but I mean full on new game releases. Not expansions/re-releases.
>>332229167
Armored Core, Otogi, Tenchu, King's Field, all the other shit? Those are all great my dear man.
I'm quite glad they're going to do something different.
It's precisely why we got Souls in the first place. And now they've grown and are more capable.
>>332227357
>yfw big budget Armored Core game using Fox Engine

That's pretty different from the AssCreed or CoD style of annual release, which is what people imply when they say that.
The fact is that the base games always get 1.5 - 2 years of dev work before release. DLC can be easily made by a skeleton crew, because all the hard stuff is already done.

"These stories are often serious in tone and epic in scope, dealing with themes of grand struggle against supernatural, evil forces.[8] Some typical characteristics of high fantasy include fantastical elements such as elves, fairies, dwarves, ogres, goblins, giants, dragons, demons, magic or sorcery, wizards or magicians, constructed languages, quests, coming-of-age themes, and multi-volume narratives."
"High fantasy is defined as fantasy set in an alternative, fictional ("secondary") world, rather than "the real", or "primary" world. The secondary world is usually internally consistent, but its rules differ from those of the primary world. By contrast, low fantasy is characterized by being set in the primary, or "real" world, or a rational and familiar fictional world, with the inclusion of magical elements."

PsP games on emulator with pvp, closest thing to a PC AC game we'll ever get.

For Answer is the best AC game for people who never wanted to play armored core in the first place
>>332227423
THANK FUCKING GOD
At least when they were making AC and KF games, they still released a bunch of new IPs or sequel games alongside. The last nonsouls shit they made was verdict day, like three years ago.
El Chavo Souls when?
The pic in the OP is my dream.
SystemShockSoulsBorne when
>>332235504
Which is only part of why it sucks.
>>332235551
When you build the wall.
>>332235619
FA sucks but there are still people who will defend it to the ends of the earth
The only thing that AC fans agree on is that Ninebreaker isn't worth buying
They're taking a break from the souls formula after Ds3.
>>332236082
Except their next Sony Souls was already confirmed.
>>332236134
Source. Miyazaki said himself after 3 he's gonna do something different. They've been doing Souls for 8 years now counting DeS dev time.

>Slav game
could work actually. think STALKER, it's a similar atmosphere/tone. the soviet style lends itself well to games of crushing despair. something like bloodborne, but with the healing church replaced by a corrupt government, gothic architecture replaced by the grim monumental concrete-and-steel structures commies liked to build, mixed together with dilapidated military and research facilities, and overrun with mutants and biomechanical horrors.
just need to sort out the gameplay somehow.
>>332236306
Souls-like is a genre, pretty much. Miyazaki said that he don't want to make another dark souls or bloodborne game. But he is making a spin-off souls-like game, right now. You can't do anything about that. Wait till E3.Also it will be a PS4 exclusive at 30fps. I really have to buy ps4
>>332236783
Nah, I live in Russia, I don't want realistic games
>>332236624
That doesn't mean they're gonna make another "souls-like" game.
>>332236978
And what will they make? Another Echo Night for vr?
>>332237057
Well it could quite literally be anything.
I doubt it would happen, but it'd be interesting to see a souls game with a revolutionary war setting
>>332230250
How about don't keep making the same God damn game?
>>332236978
It's literally the only thing they have been doing for years, and it's also what brings the cash, I doubt they'll stop now. Miyazaki might not work Souls games anymore, but to expect From Software to not be working on a new Souls game right now is stupid.
>>332236808
>soulslike is a genre
It's a style within a genre.
>>332229167
fucking this, its like they hate money
>>332228105
there is no animated version, just a collection of short animated scenes.
>>332237185
Blame! anime is confirmed when Nihei completed Knights of Sidonia
>>332233149
>King's Field
That's literally Souls game before they were called Souls.
>>332237136
I'm not saying whether it will be a souls game or not all I'm saying is that it could be anything.
>>332237161
They like their niche, it's not 100% about the money.
You don't make shit like Murakumo Renegade Mech Pursuit thinking you're diving into some ez cash.
this thread is pointless because there wont be any more souls games. from has already said this.
I want a new Echo Night. Set in space again with some elements from the Souls games since From always recycles SOMETHING from their other games.
>>332237328
It's an ultima inspired game, you nig nog.
>>332237379
>it could be anything
It most likely will be what's most profitable for them, japanese companies are not known for taking risks.
>>332237407
They meant Dark Souls games though
So if From aren't doing any souls games, is it okay if I take up the helm and make my own?
A boogeyman setting would be cool - Inside the head of a scared child trapped in a dark nightmare world who creates a heroic persona to fight his nightmares.
The day the move on from Souls games is the day they fail as a company. All their non-Souls games have been pure trash
>>332237561
Are you a head at Namco Bandai or Sony?
>>332237561
But I'm already making itJust kidding, I'm making a turn based rpg with dark souls stamina/guard/evasion system
>>332229167
You hating on
Lost Kingdoms, brah?
I'm pretty sure they'll make Bloodborne 2 at some point, Sony spent too much money creating a new IP to shelve it after the first game.
>>332237631
You've never even played them.
>>332237762
Not him but even though they do make some other games that are good, they're pretty niche, Souls is the first popular series they ever made.
>>332237740
Sony has a 3 game contract
next game is new, third game will probably be BB2
Aztec or Egyptian would be amazing. Something almost like a Zelda setup, you have to go to the tombs/territory of the different gods and fight your way up pyramids/down through tombs or temples to reach the God. It could be non-linear but beating each god/goddess could give you a different buff that you can use on your weapons etc. It'd be fun to explore a trap-heavy dungeon like Sens again, or fight mirages or a sphinx to gain entry to the areas beyond.
>>332237865
So why would that warrant them being called shit? You weren't the audience it was for.
Chromehounds is probably one the best mech games ever made and part of soul's concept of multiplayer stemmed from it.

>don't know where I'm going with this
>>332238119
They're not shit but they don't bring money either, if From Software stops making Souls game they'll either crash and go bankrupt or reduce to a considerable smaller size.
>>332238286
>reduce to a smaller size
Is this bad?
>>332238286
Do you not know how budgeting works? Perhaps they are smaller projects. The first thing they put out will be bought on the good faith they've earned with the Souls games. We don't even know what it is. You sound like those people who just want Kojima to make MGS until he dies.
>FROM SHOULD STOP MAKING SOULS GAMES
and Nintendo should stop making Mario games...right?
Youkai Souls
>>332238443
Well Nintendo should definitely stop making Mario games and make some goddamn 2D Metroid and F-Zero games, fuck those kikes.
>>332229602
>I never played them but i seen pics 20 years later and they suck
eat shit faggot
>>332238443
Yes?
>>332227357
I hope they move away from Souls, it's become so fucking bland and uninspired, even for FromSoft.
>>332238663
So, Otogi?
>>332238663
Fuck this, I hate oriental setting. You go play NiOh, it's a souls game for you (it's still in development though)
I hope FS will not making anything in japanese/asian setting because of NiOh (I will not be surprised if NiOh runs at 60fps)
>>332238897
I guess, but with BB game play.
That mean no shield.
I would give my left nut for Armored Souls
>>332238969
>I will not be surprised if NiOh runs at 60fps
>PS4 game
>running at 60fps
I seriously doubt it.
>>332238443
As a matter of fact they should
>>332238859
What was bland or uninspiring about Bloodborne?
>>332239085
Isn't that basically what Kojima is making?
