ARPG with dark fantasy setting similar to dark soulsI'm not arguing semantics. I can only respond to the wording of what you post, as I am not a mind reader.
It's possible it's not BB2, but you certainly haven't convinced me.

A new Ninja Blade, From's best game.
All over my face.
This thread is all over the place.
What has actually been confirmed and what is still speculation?
Bloodborne 2 confirmed! Didn't think they'd do it.

"If I wish real hard it HAS to happen right? I mean but it made so much money!!!"Miyazaki's outright saying he's done with sequels for now and people are arguing whether BB2 is the next game? Okay then.
What's a bummer is that he can't do this Escaflowne-type game, as that sounds way more interesting to me.
Then it wouldn't even be Bloodborne. It would be a new IP in the same way Demons Souls and Dark Souls are different games.I'm kind of hoping this is the case. Similar combat mechanics but a different setting and story.
Lol....the hyperbole never ends over here.Well Miyazaki worked on DS3 and it was actually worse than DS2. You can tell that guy is fatigued after all these games. Good thing he is high up in From Soft so he can basically do what he wants.
There could something like Bloodborne 2, but most probably the story will be vastly different.

If any of them have anything to do with Armored Core, Tenchu or Otogi, I'm a happy person.
DS4 is definetly possible. Maybe even not years away. But I doubt Miyazaki will be involved. He seemed tired of DS and wants to direct something else. It would be another director (which would result in half of GAF going crazy how bad the game is, and how it's a 1/10 compared to the Miyazaki games). DS2 is one of my most beloved entries to the franchise though, so I say bring it on.
Says he's done with sequels.
Works on new Armored Core.
lol
I wouldn't take everything Miyazaki says at face-value. This can actually be applied to pretty much anyone in the video game industry.
The Armored Core thing might very well be a lie. And you'll basically be saying this same thing if he reveals all three games and one's an armored core but there's no BB2 in sight. But there's a difference in reviving something that's been dead for years and creating a sequel to a game that you've basically been doing for the past four years.
Except, he actually said he was done with Dark Souls sequels.
I'm kind of hoping this is the case. Similar combat mechanics but a different setting and story.
Call it Bloodborne 2 or call it something else. Just don't abandon those sweet, sweet transforming weapons and fast-action combat after only one game.

Goreborne
VitalFluidborne
Redborne
Gimme gimme that spiritual successor.
As others have mentioned, A bloodborne sequel just wouldn't make sense. It would have to be a spiritual successor much like Demon's to Dark.
New world, new story, with similar combat.
Four years? Try seven.
And the last Armored Core is only three years old. That's not a dead franchise. So if it's in development, the Big M is clearly fine with doin' sequels.
Sweet, so Bloodborne 2's back on the table!
Which removes the setting and appeal of Bloodborne and at that point you either have Dark Souls or a modern day/post future game, so what's the point of keeping it under the Bloodborne IP? If you go forward there's nothing to explore in connection to Bloodborne and if you go backwards then you've removed the combat system of Bloodborne.Maybe? Just change the time period 500 years in either direction and anything can happen.
Miyazaki said two things.Come on, Bloodborne is part of the souls series. They are not making BB2.

No, it's not.
Arguably there is no "souls series" there are three similar games and two of them happen to end in souls but they all share enough similarities to be grouped together, so arguing whether Bloodborne is part of the souls games is kind of a silly argument. It is in all but name but the games aren't a "series" as they are a collection, Bloodborne included.It is most definitely not, if you actually played you would know that.
It is, and even Miyazaki himself is experiencing Souls fatigue at the moment, he also wants to make a new Otogi game. They clearly aren't working on BB2. The only ones that can make BB2 happen is Japan Studio, not Fromsoft.
Maybe they aren't working Bloodborne 2. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised at all if they aren't.
But it's pretty obvious going by Miyazaki himself that another Soulslike game is underway. Read the OP.

Because he mentioned a dark fantasy ARPG? He also said that it would be different to the Souls series. You're nit picking Miyazaki's words to feed your belief that they are working on something similar to BB. They won the right to make something different and take a break. Why the fans don't want to give them a break too is beyond my comprehension.
Alright, change it to "sequel", I'm not going to argue semantics with you. Doesn't change the fact that it's not Bloodborne 2
You're missing the point and reading something else entirely.Dark Souls series is the same world. Drawing elements from the previous settings and stories.
Bloodborne is an entirely different world, it's own story with similar combat. It isn't just "the name". That's extremely reductive and actually plain wrong. The engine, some UI elements and design choices are similar to Dark Souls, but it is not the same series.
Demon's Souls is close to Dark but a different world and story however, Miyazaki stepped into that game in the middle of development because of some issues it was facing. It essentially paved the way for a new sub-genre
Why wouldn't it be Bloodborne 2? Sony isn't going to just sit on a successful new IP like that. You kinda sound like the people who were adamant that Sony and From would never collaborate on a Souls-like when the initial rumours began in 2014.
myself said:ARPG with dark fantasy setting similar to dark souls
So not a sequel
And the bolded statement can be taken two ways.
It's a game with a dark fantasy setting, setting being similar to dark souls
Or its a dark fantasy game and its similar to dark souls in the way that all souls games are similar to each other. But I'm going to assume the former, the settings of dark souls and Bloodborne are quite different also meaning it's not Bloodborne. Had it had any relation to Bloodborne I'd imagine the game wouldve at least been used in reference in the same way Dark Souls is being used as a reference, but its not and all of the above combined with the fact that Miyazaki has stated his disinterest in making things he's already done (or rather has said he's pretty much only interested in doing something new)
All of these things lead me to believe that there won't be a Bloodborne sequel and I personally believe that to be a better desicion.
Holy shit.Miyzaki's personally wants to make a mixture of fantasy and mech, something like The Vision of Escaflowne
