Bloodborne launch trailer

Trying to make my gifs as high quality as possible. How is this one?

That skybox is so fuggin gorgeous. I wonder how they are handling the day/night dynamic in this game as sometimes we see it is utter blackness, while other times we see these gorgeous sunset scenes.
 
So does anyone think this'll be the last Sony x From Software collaboration (at least for a while)?

I'd be surprised if Sony didn't already have Miyazaki lined up for the sequel. Just look at how they're treating the game. I can't remember them doing a going gold event for any game.

There is some speculation that it is
indicative of a world tendency system
but I think it's more likely to be tied to story progression; that areas will change time of day based on how much you've done in the game.

Depends on the deal between Kadokawa and From imo. Do we know if From's purchase is like Sega and Atlus where Sega allows Atlus do whatever they want?
 
I still can't believe that this game exists.

I know right. Start the year with

That was my original thought way back when they showed the Cleric Beast fight during the daytime instead of night like we had scene all the time up to that point.

I would love for the World Tendency system to return. Made the world feel so dynamic and made it feel like your actions had real effect on the world.
 
I didnt think sony was smart enough to realise Miyazaki was very pivotal to these games. They specifically asked for Miyazaki according to the IGN video and during the initial e3 reveal his name comes up first before anything as well as Shu saying they are working with one of the industry's most respected directors

If they want to carry on the IP or even just collabing again for a new title i can see it hinging on Miyazaki.

Yeah it seems that Sony has learned their lesson from the Demon's Souls fiasco and they also know the importance of Miyazaki when it comes to designing these games (especially if they've noticed the reception of Dark Souls 2.)

The only thing that worries me is how much time Miyazaki will continue to have for development now that he has been appointed president of From Software.

He said in the new Famitsu interview that things will continue as they currently are where he'll direct games while being president. He talked about how he had a lot of talented people around him while directing Bloodborne, so he could confidently leave them to do certain things without worrying about it.
 
O___O


I popped two African boners, one Asian one, and a couple of caucasian ones on the side as I watched that. My crotch feels like the united nations.



This game..I'm not sure I'll be able to play it, but I will enjoy seeing how far I get before I put it aside to watch someone with superior hand eye coordination beat it online -__-

I remember him saying that...i hope it was honest talk and not just PR.They know that the fans want Miyazaki to direct as many FromSoft games as possible so maybe he's saying what their PR have told him to say.And overseeing a project is definitely not the same as directing it himself.
 
Just saw a bit of the trailer...I NEED that scythe. Like actually, please don't let it be an end-game weapon I mean please I wanna be the grim reaper and collect the souls of the deceased, all I ever wanted please FROM and Miyazaki.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

Just the thought of that................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Report me for trolling ND/TLoU2 threads
Even my students cant wait for this game, they think they are more excited than me but i call them on their bs lol
 
There are humans on the internet that think this game looks awful.

I have seen people say 'every gif looks the same, all you do is fight stuff'. They're complaining that it is 'too japanese'.

I just don't even know where to begin.
 
I'm so hyped for this, I don't want to look at anything about it or even talk too in depth about it. I hope it has a Dark Souls 1 vibe, my favorite game of all time.

Is anyone else not feeling this game??

Didnt like dark souls 1, skipped dark souls 2 and im iffy on this. all my irl friends are hyping it up like the best thing since sliced bread, but I'm still 50/50 on this.

Yeah, people who don't like the Souls games, like yourself, are probably not feeling this game. Because it's basically a Souls game.

I'm not feeling it in my hands right now. The smooth plastic cover sliding through my fingers as I caress the corners. Sliding my fingernails up and down the top grabbing the shapely rise so I can rip that cover off, open it up nice and wide .. push down the button and pop out that perfectly circular Blu-Ray.

The soft moan of the PS4 sliding it in and loading it up

And the silence of the world around me as I put on my headphones and never look away from the screen again until the sun comes out and my wife smacks me on the head.

You didn't like dark souls 1 or 2, of course you're not feeling it.

After several hours with the game I have to agree. Not feeling it.

Not every game is meant for everyone.

my brother is always talking about dark souls and always hyping it up to me and telling me about all the stuf fhe gets into, so this will be one of my first games into the series (a fromsoft game i know its not a souls game) i barely played the other two but im looking to go in deep so i can understand the full glory of the hype.

My advice: giver her lots of oral
notice
in advance of the game so she's more willing to let you give that shapely disc the attention it so deserves. That's my plan.
 
3rd person, excellent animation, focus on well-developed melee combat.

The notion of "too Japanese" is stupid, but it does have identifiably Japanese strengths.
The notion isn't stupid... disliking a game because of preconceived notions kinda are. I would have never tried P4G if it weren't for the praise of GAF because I have absolutely zero use for anime but I am glad I did.

Guess I am completely off topic but this game is in no way a traditional Japanese game...

Who else would they ask? He wasn't making Dark Souls 2 was he? The whole idea is to revive the excitement of the original Demons Souls collaboration.

Like it's superior sales and critical reception? It seemed like every souls fan was insisting Demons > Dark before Dark 2 came and whining for a Demons 2.

Every one is different, so it is possible this game may not be up you ally. For me, I have bought, played, and failed to beat every game in the series thus far, but I still feel inclined to get this day one. For me it is the art, setting, and atmosphere that has me interested and the fact that my younger brother is picking it up means that for the first time I will have a co op buddy to help me through the hard times. My advice? Have one of you buddies share play it to you so you can try it out for an hour or two with them giving you hints and advice where you need it. If you dig it, buy it and play it co op with them^^
