What if the Armored Core series is the sequel to Soulsborne?

The fuckers in Dark Souls and Demon Souls got fucking tired of souls, and they abandoned it for blood.

But blood raises a lot more bullshit problems as seen in Bloodborne, so the people say fuck it became war machines instead.

One of the games could be Miyazaki's robot space ninjas pet project, I think. Dude's been going on about how he's done with Souls and related shit for a while now, so I don't think they're gonna touch that shit again any time soon aside from Switch ports for Dark Souls, maybe. They also confirmed that Armored Core is in the studio's plans, but again no actual info if it's actually in development.

I bet at least one of the games will be featured at the Sony conference, they probably did everything short of sucking off every employee at From Soft to secure at least one more project as a playstation exclusive.


6c27cf No.14557612

>>14557594

Well, the recruitment video they released a couple of years back that started the whole speculation about what they're doing next, listed all the major home consoles out at that time, Windows, and PSVR oddly enough. My guess is we're looking at most at a timed exclusive with a multiplat release down the line ala Valkyria Chronicles. Unless Sony get directly with development and contribute actual assets like they did with Bloodborne, there's no way current day From is gonna do an exclusive.

From are clearly capable of making good action combat without devolving it into i-frame spam. Dark 3 had those knights in the first stage that would alternate between regular offense, shielding and stance, making you play a rock-scissors-paper of guarding, moving and shield breaking. Normal attacks are quick and difficult to move out of range of reliably but can be blocked, shielding requires you to go into stance and break, but slows you down andleaves you vulnerable to normal attacks and stance breaks your guard but is slow and predictable, forcing you to move to avoid it and counter attack.

They totally dropped all that in favor of DUDE MASH O LMAO within 30 minutes though.


5bb7bc No.14559997

>>14559944

No, it could not still be bloodborne. There is literally nothing in shadows die twice that in any way indicates it could be bloodborne, and "it's japanese as fuck so it could totally be Bloodborne but in Japan" is some of the most retarded reasoning I ever had the displeasure to witness. But don't cry bitch tears just yet, as there is still a decent chance it's going to be PS4 exclusive.


b607c6 No.14560021

>>14559997

It's gonna be on PS4 no matter what it turns out to be. I'm just opening up the possibility that it could be connected to Bloodborne based on item descriptions. By that same measure it could easily be related to Dark Souls or even Demon's Souls too because an eastern land is mentioned in every souls game.

First you need to buy DSFi- err, Remaster, goy.

IMHO BB doesn't need a sequel. Not only because the story plays out pretty satisfactorily but also if DaS2 and 3 are anything to go by, the sequel will completely shit the bed. A second DLC to expand on a few things would be very much welcome though, particularly Cainhurst. We only got the tourist route of it. And goddamned respec. Patch that shit already!

There isn't much vampire stuff per se though. You fight a few primal jews at the entrance, then some manlet slaves and PMSing ghosts, gargoyles, more ghosts and manlets and then one guy severely pissed off because frostbite took his junk.

Despite the impression it gives, it's a really short area.

He might have meant the Vilebloods and them consuming the bad blood to stay young, which is where the Executioners came in to tell them about the wonders of the wheel.

Yeah but their presence is very dim, it's really just Annalise and the player should he join her. Though you can find Cainhurst knights in the dungeons and I don't know where Annalise's claims of being the last leave the Bloody Crow.

The whole Vileblood thing is kinda confusing since they're already long descendants of the Pthumerians and immortality is unique to Annalise. What exactly does the forbidden blood do for them as a whole? We know the dregs are to contaminate Annalise even further so she gets DUNWICHED but what of the rest? Alfred does say "the first of the inhuman Vilebloods" which implies there were more of them at the time.

IMHO this is the remaining big loose end of BB - Cainhurst, Pthumeru and Byrgenwerth.

Those knights were just overloading a single enemy to counter almost everything the player usually does. I get where you are coming form, but they were ultimately really annoying enemies to me. I don't like this type of design, where they put almost everything in an enemy's kit. They have damage, they have range, they have defense, they can almost instantly shield bash you, etc. etc.

The one thing I hate about Lothric Knights is their insane fucking stamina and shield bash. I don't know how many times I was roll caught by a FUCKING SHIELD, then subsequently murdered by their spear/sword combos.

It seems like something they either didn't think through/couldn't finish or just wanted to leave up to speculation. I was hoping there would be more stuff about Cainhurst in the files when people began mining it but some of the stuff they found was a boss that was called, "The King in Blue" and some actual Vileblood that Annalise would give it to you as a reward. It acted like the blood vial from the other woman in the chapel.

I just want to fully explore the freakin' castle and get more Executioner weapons while I'm at it.

That's the thing, a DLC doesn't even have to make wholly new areas. It could expand Cainhurst, Byrgenwerth and the Upper Ward (since the Choir has a presence in Byrgenwerth). The theme could be the mysteries of the Pthumeru, how Byrgenwerth studied them and the guy who brought old blood to Cainhurst and then their own connection to Pthumeru (the fleas might be coming from a labyrinth directly beneath Cainhurst's grounds and it's theorized they're the beast form of Pthumerians). Also more Executioner lore given Logarius appears to be Pthumerian. You could get more Vileblood weapons like their polearm that's allegedly the basis of the Rifle Spear, more Executioner weapons and the weapons used by the Pthumerian Descendant (a SKL shotel that splits in two) and Elder (the morphing staff, could be ARC that uses bullets for some attacks).

Maybe I'm overthinking it but I feel there's a lot of untapped potential.

>youtube celebs

I'll admit I find Jerks Sans Frontieres and Redgrave to be bretty gud.

>>14563913

>>14563944

I like the idea behind the shield bash, it's a simple thing that's nonetheless a huge game changer. Then the game quickly throws this simplicity out the idea for retarded shit like the Pontiff Knights and their Tekken combos.

What frustrates the most about Lothric Knight (and most enemies, really) is that they stink of input-reading.

The animation is weird but it already seems like your reward is drinking her blood straight from her wrist. Covenants could use rewards nonetheless. They feel like an afterthought, like From felt obliged to include them as some sort of traditional mechanic people would expect.

the lothric knights and some others to a different extent are emblematic of DasIII's problem of treating the game as bloodborne-lite and throwing enemies at you with a dozen quick responses to your moves that feels unfair because of their 360 degree attacks, and on-a-dime shielding.

Add in the spergout infinite enemy stamina combos that chew through your stamina and either leave you totally drained when they're done or broke your guard for a shitload of damage, and you've got enemies that more reward you for cheesing them than actual tactics. Also it's annoying that they like to put lothric knights in areas where it's easy to aggro a second one for a fight that's completely unfair, so you end up having to take your time and pull one unfair enemy rather than tolerate dealing with two fair ones.

I've never played Demon Souls so I can't tell how covenants worked there, but they were the best in DS1 when most covenants had your online interaction somewhat changed.

Darkwraiths were about invading any world, WoS were about co-op play, WoW was about stronger miracle resonance, Forest Hunters were about defending an area, Gravelords infested worlds with powerful phantoms, PotD was scalie fight club, BotD was about invading guilty players. The Princess Guard and Chaos Servants were effectively fanclubs for their respective waifus and it's a shame that there was no real online interaction for them (CS could infect other players with egg heads, while PG could have been Mirror Knights 0.5)

As the games went on the changes meant that covenants didn't really mean anything. By DS3 ANY covenant could get tokens just by invading, making a lot of them feel fairly redundant.

In Bloodborne the Vampires and Priests were just kind of there with no real change on how the game played. No beast or starspawn group in spite of the DLC adding cool transformations for them.

>treating the game as bloodborne-lite

Most of the time the enemies recover from hitstun and hit you back before you're done with your attack animation and you end up having to bait the one single attack you can safely punish. Well, unless you use a straight sword where you can get more openings, swing for less stamina, arguably more DPS and it might stagger just as hard. Vanilla DaS3 was so bad, even the PvE had a meta.

Actual BB, you have movesets that are useful in their entirety and all weapons are good in their own right. It's one of the reasons I love the game, it makes single weapon runs pretty fun. Still want that respec though.

>>14564610

DeS had World and Character Tendencies instead. WT affects the PvE by opening paths (White) or adding black phantom enemies (Black) while CT affects how much HP you have in Soul Form (think of it like Hollowing) and your attack power as a invader.

Executioners and Vilebloods are some kind of forced PvP because the factions hate each other, Hoontas of Hoontas will aggro on a summoner who killed other players and the League are basically Sunbros. They could keep that but I wonder if it would be a good idea to have Executioners act as Sentinels and go help people invaded by Vilebloods while HoH could work like DaS1 Darkmoons and use indictments to mark their targets.

It's also brought up that the game could use a area defense covenant. I'm a proponent for Byrgenwerth given the area's size is optimal for that and it could answer the lore question about Rom (is it holding back the ritual or just hiding it?) but I also see some asking for a Ebby-chan guard. I also think they should add a area in Cainhurst for Executioners and Vilebloods to duel, a PvP covenant where no one suffers the HP penalty. Keeping it in Cainhurst means they could re-use assets and not have to make new lore or NPCs for it.

Then there's the other two offline "covenants" Milkweed and Beast. I really think the Lumenwood Kin should have been connected to Ebritas in a manner similar to the Princess Guard was to Gwynevere. Also there should have been a Powder Kegs covenant that worked like the Forest Hunters or the Rat King.

You kind of have a point with regards to shooters but at least those require actual movement evasion while attacking at the same time and not just nipshit timing-based "press button to dodge, press button to dodge, attack, press button to dodge".

Naw, this ain't gonna be Bloodborne 2. Bloodborne 2 is going to take place in Yharnam in the relative future so it's been remodeled and renovated to look like New York in the 70's.
