>“Dark Souls 3 will have several DLCs like previous games. But there’s absolutely no plan right now for any sequels, spin-offs or tie-ins. But I can’t say for certain the possibility is 0%. What is certain for now is, to me personally, Dark Souls is over. So rather than make another sequel, I think it’s time we take a step to a new direction. Production of a new IP has already begun.”

Looks like the dark fantasy games from Miyazaki is over, he is probably making some MOBA or a Fps right now. No Dark Souls 4, Bloodborne 2 or any Souls type game from him in the future. It has been fun, I hope the 2 dlcs for Dark Souls 3 are good.

RIP Souls games.

This article is bullshit, by the way. In the original article Miyazaki never says anything about no more spins off or tie-ins. The article says that Miyazaki is no longer interested in making another Dark Souls game and right now he feels Dark Souls is over for him. It goes on to say he is working on a new IP that isn't related to Dark Souls. It LITERALLY says nothing about spins-off or tie-ins, and even if it did Bloodborne some people don't consider spin-off to mean "a new game with similar mechanics". He might mean a game like Dark Souls 2 is more of a spin-off.
also Taiwan is fucking gay and still isn't a real country.

But really, they are getting out of these games at the right time. With Nioh and that one Capcom souls game coming out, the genre will be flooded soon.

For example how would they make enemies in such a futuristic setting not use automatic fast guns at all they really need a good explanation for that and i don't think they could get away with it that easily.

And the bosses could not vary much. They would mostly be humanoid.Another thing is the bonfire mechanic. How would they explain dying yet resurrecting again and again.

This depends on a few factors. 1 it depends on how successful he is AFTER dark souls.

If he's successful then yeah...he's done. If not...he'll return to cash in.

You have to be literally retarded to pull that from the statement.

It'll be soulslike in a new coat if paint. Miyazakis too much of a hack for any original thought. He proved that in BB and proved it in LR where his only change to the AC3 formula was "make it harder"

I've only played DS1, a little of DS2 (boring), and DS3. I don't think I would enjoy playing another souls game, they really are getting kind of stale. I may play Bloodborne in a couple years just so it may feel somewhat fresh.

That being said, I currently just beat crystal sage but have enjoyed DS1 more than 3 so far.
Level design is just kind of boring (so far).

This is the epitome of burning out through the same formula too fast. Bonus if you also played LotF and DS2 Scholar.

2 PS4 exlusives, both RPGs. The new IP is one of these 2.
Don't be sad, with the PS4 Neo coming up you can buy a cheap base PS4.
>>
>>335739242
I didn't mean 1:1 clones. I just meant the general idea, but with innovations. It's clear that From didn't--or couldn't--go beyond the basics of the formula. I'd be interested to see what other devs could do.

I guess what I really want is more well-done 3-D Castlevania-likes. They were so close to achieving that in Dark Souls, and then they threw that particular design philosophy out the window, or didn't take it far enough.

Yeah, we'll see how that turns out.

On the topics of guns
Projectile guns are pretty low tech as it goes, if you really wanna go full on sci-fi based on what we do know now, directional microwave and lasers are the way to go

Still, even if NPCs and PCs have access to fast projectile weapons, you can balance it out with force field shields, or have Defense based Blades that when equipped to the left hand will swing REALLY FAST and deflect bullets like in your japanese cartoons, fuck, make laser katanas be able to do that when two handed and you press L1

As for mobs, machines can and will take any form, if you think humanoid when some one says robot you really have shit imagination
Same goes for areas, you can have space stations, factories, outposts, space ships, deserted moons, loads of places to be

Imagine going into an assembly line level where you have to pass though loads of robots with plasma cutters, needle guns, welding irons and other stardard shit trying to kill you, and they are making other combat bots, so you need to disable the line to make the level easier
Or a level in a blown up section of a space station and you are out on the vacuum using magnetic boots , shit would be nuts

Baffling

The only difference is that Souls became more popular than AC. So its vocal minority is a lot larger than AC's vocal minority, if you can even argue that AC as a series has one at all.

Pretty much literally System Shock 2, or Bioshock to a lesser extent

reconstruction stations/vita chamber like things would serve as respawn points

Perhaps you could handle fast travel or inventory managment in the field through network uplink posts which are separate from the respawn points.
>>
Renaissance would be a better souls setting instead of scifi if you ask me.
>>
>>335736459
Pretty much, yes. But in Souls games, when you die, the world doesn't get reset. Enemies come back, which is unexplained and purely a game mechanic, but anything you've done to the environment stays.

Items you grab, doors you open, levers you pull, all persist beyond player death.

Alright, so we all know that the when the First Flame is recently rekindled, the Curse of the Undead is long-gone and civilization can flourish for another thousand years or so before the Flame fades and the Curse shows back up. It's the main reason, in my interpretation, that the Dark Souls settings are all stuck in medieval times more or less, despite each game taking place many thousand years between. Society can only get that far before getting totally fucked by Undead again.

Imagine if somehow, someone Linked the Fire so good that it was able to last many, many generations before going out again. So long that civilization was able to actually get out of the pseudo-middle ages and advance beyond our modern civilization.

How would a futuristic fantasy world look? Is it possible to marry sci-fi and fantasy?
>>
>>335743851
Magical societies don't really improve technology too much since there's no need: magic is better. So instead of ever creating sci-fi-like technology, they would sort of ascend like High Elves and shit, beings whose whole existence revolves around magic. They'd become like the ancient mystical beings you always hear about in fantasy.
>>
>>335730051
Make your character, have him upload his brain into a computer at the beginning of the game as a part of the vague story. After your first death your memory is installed in a machine/clone, you are able to upgrade your virtual/clone self with whatever currency the game uses.

Fast gun fire could be dodged blood borne style or blocked using a force field or shield, thats not a big problem.

Oppressive atmosphere with aliens or machines would work fine in a souls game. Make lore lead you to believe your trying to escape while really you're being lead by another persons memory from inside the computer that keeps re spawning you. Throw in some philosophy about how is a man still himself after downloading his brain into a computer bullshit.

There, Sci Fi souls, not that hard. Just make the gameplay fun.
>>
>>335744094
They should just not include assault weapons, and that's it. Make it a sort of fusion of fantasy/sci-fi where for whatever reason, automatic weapons just didn't catch on and firearms in general aren't hugely popular since magic still exists.

>>335725792
Finally, the cancer is over. Now the meme threads can stop, the indie pixel games can go rip something else off, and peace can return to the realm.

>>335730234

This. Miyazaki might be done with it and off to try new things but I'm sure they'll have B-Team churning out souls-like games.
>>
>>335745778
Because they already had the engine, concept art, character design was ready way before the development of the game started, so you can consider that the game is already half-way done, so you have more manpower and can focus your teams to do everything in parallel, the main scenario and the dlc levels, since the DLC levels don't have dependencies with the main storyline.
>>
>>335734356
Probably the latter. Think the Dark Tower meets The Arms Peddler

Daily reminder that miyzaki doesn't consider Bloodborne a "souls" game and than any future game made by him will actually be a fucking souls game with another name and 99% same mechanics like Bloodborne but with a shitty twist to it like le ebin dashing hoonters of many transforming weapons.

>>335730234

Exactly, they have struck a golden vein with this shitty zelda knock off style of gameplay with edgy stories and level up systems that attract even the wildest call of duty casuals plus "le difficulty" memes assure constant marketing and following, only a retard would stop now, it's literally accelerating in this very moment, dark souls 3 is the fastest selling title ever in the history of bandai's publishing line, they won't fucking stop biting this cash cow.

It could be a world like Tron where you inject your persona in a digitized alter ego that holds your memories, the "Hollows" of such a game would be programs that died inside and forgot everything about themselves, you would be a USER and so you would be able to retain your memories even when dying, boom the setting is done now add a bunch of leveling stats, a bunch of edgy bullshit and there you have it GOTY 2018 2 Million sales ez pez.

Personally I'd really like to see From try their hand at a more traditional RPG. Something like The Elder Scrolls, but with less bugs, and more soul. Pun intended.

I think they could make a really good setting and atmosphere. I don't know how they'd tell a really full story, as they usually never do that, but it'd be interesting to see.
