No shit, they're about being games. Something this kike never understood how to do.

Both games are shit, the souls format is just as dried out as the movie game format

>>720903771
I don't think Miyazaki would disagree. His games are about several things and the story is just one aspect. This doesn't mean the story in souls games is any worse than what Neil Druckman comes up with usually, in any case.

>GAME-PLAY
Every single fucking button you press in a game is gameplay. What you are talking about is combat. Every menu you navigate, every time you spend skill points, upgrades, move your character - THAT IS GAMEPLAY. YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT FIGHTING! COMBAT!

you realize druckmann loves bloodborne right? he's not insulting the game

ok

Druckmann makes "games" where he takes all agency from you so you have less game to play.
Also under your description the menu navigation for a DVD/Blu-ray is a game.

They share similarities but are not the same.

>>720904817
Bloodborne is probably the only rollslop game in the franchise I would say isn't rollslop simply because the entire game is based around aggression and dodging which it does very well.

It's also anything but uninspired. The reason bloodbornefags are so rabid is because of the deeply curated atmosphere and setting. It's probably the closest we are ever going to get to experiencing the same emotions a protagonist from an HP Lovecraft novel experiences. Albeit with much more fun video game combat for epic video gamers such as myself.

Every game designer should be forced to make at least one game with a story of fewer than a few thousand words, so they can prove whether or not they are GAME designers or STORY writers.

Bloodborne is just a bad game. There's no narrative nor sense to it. It's why Lies of P mogs it as a game.

Color me shocked.

Btw your games fucking suck, they're interactive movies and they also fail in that department and I will never play them not even if gifted or pirated and I actively talked out several dozens people to not play them.

Bloodborne is slop for brown people but I hate jews more than it.

The crazy thing is that Soulsbornes don't even really have a "story" as such. It's just really excellent world building, ambiance, environmental cues. There's something of a narrative here and there with certain characters, and there's a barebones overall arc that the player goes through, but it's all very superficial. The fact that this approach yields a better result than a tryhard moviegame just goes to show how shit this guy is at storytelling.

Bloodborne arguably has the most straight forward story of any souls game next to sekiro. It's literally just
>Old gods make ancient people
>ancient people get greedy and fuck everything up
>humans find ruins of ancient people
>humans get greedy and fuck everything up
>You the player now have the chance to fix things by unraveling what's really going on and killing all the masterminds behind the current situation.

>gaming's most celebrated storytellers
This motherfucker made ONE fucking game with a story that was only good because he wasn't allowed to fuck it up.
Then he fucked up Uncharted (how do you manage that?), went on to fuck up his ONE fucking game with a shitty sequel. How is he celebrated for fucking anything?
>>
He's not wrong. Elden Ring and Bloodborne both are really just about vibes.

The specifics of story are honestly overrated in visual media. Many of the most celebrated movies of all time aren't valued for the plotting or the depth of the characters.
And that's just movies. Games like what Druckmann makes, on their best possible day, are poor imitations of movies.

Creating a deep world with a less complex narrative is the optimal implementation of story into games. It capitalizes on the strengths of the medium in a way that the opposite never could. Interactivity means that players engage themselves with the game world through play, with the plot as pretense. Dishonored 1 and Bloodborne are top tier examples.

All last of us can aspire to be is a rough approximation of a movie, at which point your times better spent watching a movie.

>>720903771
Cover based third person shooters with stealth elements that need to cram their exposition and narrative in with cutscenes and walky talky segments have no intentional relation between the story and the gameplay, so a game like TLoU and Uncharted 4 is even less about the story than most games are,
The games he makes care more about how bad console controllers are at handling backported PC gameplay than they does about telling its story.
>>720904750
If he genuinely understood anything coming out of his mouth, then he would have stopped making these "games".
>>720907718
There is definitely an argument to be made for building wide, instead of tall when it comes to narrative specifically.
>All last of us can aspire to be is a rough approximation of a movie, at which point your times better spent watching a movie.
It's actually much worse than that. By using such cookie cutter gameplay that backports PC free cameras for a third person game, the game intentionally gives up almost all of the kinematography that a movie could have exercised during its main runtime, something that even Ocarina of Time devs were more interested in than TLoU devs.

I got lost with the "story" around the Nightmare of Mensis area. Yeah now that I read the lore online it's relatively straightforward, but not much is actually conveyed about it in-game. Micolash and Mergo in particular feel like they come out of nowhere for being the bosses of the game's climax area.
If you compare analogous endgame bosses in other Fromsoft games, like Giant Lord in DS2 or the Twin Princes in DS3, these are lore-culminating bosses that you should be able to more-or-less follow along with who they are and why you're fighting them even if you haven't been following item descriptions super closely. I had no idea why the fuck I was fighting a scythe-wielding "wet nurse" protecting a baby carriage at the end of Bloodborne. I'm sure loremasters can point me to the three utterly random items whose descriptions I should've read.

I never got particularly lost since I found enough context clues to keep track of the basics but I will say that a bit too much context was hidden in the chalice dungeons which most people never got all the way through.
>>
>>720903771
How could this possibly be considered a controversial take?
>>
>>720908597
I love Bloodborne because its lore, themes and aesthetics are all incredible. Yahrnam is a fantastically realized fantasy setting. That said, the actual narrative story the player experiences is basically nonsense. It basically makes sense with top down context, but the purpose of the players mission is totally inscrutable without context.

It's a journalist, they get paid to lie.
>>
>>720910447
Because every recent from game with the exception of elden ring have fairly straight forward plots and its really only the fine details that get hidden in random item descriptions. But in the context of this thread the outrage is mainly due to the person making the statement, who is notorious for making simplistic movie games with paper thin characters and predictable plots. So that tweet comes across as an Amazon books AI "author" complaining that Dr. Seuss books dont have enough story.

And then there are subhumans like OP who spread lies for free.

the west can only tell stories in very straight-forward ways.
