I'm more excited for whatever the next single player game is.

>>736221070
its proof there are no nintendies here except a few autismos.

>>736221070
why would gamers who wont be playing it get excited about it?
the Shitch is a dead console.

Cuckoo crazy lunatic.

the people who like dark souls and extraction shooters dont overlap much, combined with the fact its on a handheld
Besides, the good parts of souls are fundamentally incompatible with multiplayer games like this

>>736221070
lillte nigtendies want boing boing wahey, not grimdark rollslop.
the amount of crying from about this game being too hard is going to be epic, I hope Miyazaki doesnt sell out and have an easy mode

>PvP
>Console exclusive
>nintendo Netcode
>fromsoftware Netcode
Nightreign also died in a few months and no cares about that trash anymore and this is coming from a game available on every platform. Fromsoftware should just stop trying to make MP Souls like and stick to SP games only

>>736222103
>>736222110
>>736222145
Can't wait for you naysayers to be proven wrong when it sells several million copies and everyone has a blast playing it.
Can't you recognize the pattern by now?
>this is the time! I was wrong every single previous time but this time From's game will be bad and no one will play it I know it in my heart of hearts!

It's more nightreign filler slop. The equivalent of from shovelware.

>>736222145

More successful than Maratroon.

>>736222235
Ok, enjoy your Nightreign 2.0 retard
>>736222365
Not a high bar

>>736222306
Factually false. It's a game that's been worked on for a long time, something dear to Miyazaki.
The only slop is in your brain.

>>736222398

Holy tendie melty, seethe tranny

>>736222468
Why WOULD it suck?
The last bad game From made was DaS2 and that was only relatively bad. There's no reason to believe the game will be bad.

>>736222525
it's ok anon, we know you can't afford it.

>>736221070
I don't own a Switch 2.

>>736222525
Except I didn't say that, genius. You are hallucinating things. We are two different people.
Keep coping and malding.

I just don't understand why you'd be excited for a fucking multiplayer game. It's the same garbage over and over again, no story, no thing. Hard fucking pass. Give me a singleplayer game or fuck off.

No wonder nobody cares about this trash

>>736222606
Because it's made by From and they have a pattern of making good games.
The single player games will come.
>>736222649
(You)
>>736222657
Will you cry when those "nobody" turn out to be millions of sales?

>>736221070
Elden Ring Tarnished Edition was supposed to be out already to start building hype for Duskbloods, but From couldn't optimize their spaghetti code in time.

>>736222720
yeah, I don't want to keep fucking waiting though. It's been years since the last game now.

Why do people keep using Nightreign as a pejorative? It's an awesome spin-off

nightreign isnt bad, but it simply cant have any of the positives that made souls games so good in the first place, exploring and finding stuff is half the fun and that doesnt really apply when youre dropped in a randomly generated loottable map

>>736221070
>Why is nobody excited for Duskbloods?
I'm not interested in online-only PVP, sorry. I buy anything, I want it to be usable offline- just in case.

>>736221070
what do you mean with bias?
its just released on one system so its reach and appeal is instantly reduced.

>>736222720
I only see turbo fromfags buying a whole console for one Single game.
This will 100% sell less copies than their previous games

>>736221070
>why aren't you excited for a pvp (the worst part of any Fromsoft title) focused game that requires you purchase a 450$ shitbox and then requires a paid subscription to an especially shitty online service to actually play
Gee, I dunno.

>>736221070
it's literally because they indicated it was multiplayerslop

if it was a singleplayer game the hype would be through the fucking roof. You have no idea how different enthusiasm is for real Fromsoft singleplayer games compared to their retarded janky trash multiplayer garbage

>>736221070
Nightreign and Duskbloods aren't real games.

we are the dusk bloods

>>736221070
no-one likes fromsoft multiplayer. no-one is playing fromsoft for multiplayer. duskbloods is multiplayer.

everyone likes singleplayer fromsoft. that's what people love, and that's what duskbloods isn't

>>736221070
I wouldn't say it's ant-Nintendo bias, it's just that your average Souls fanboy is not a Nintendie. And most dedicated Tendies doesn't care about Souls

>>736221070
Multiplayer slop like neightrein. I refunded nightreign

Not many people have a Switch 2.

>>736223251
There's no reason to buy one now that Bravely Default is on PC.

>>736222930
>but it simply cant have any of the positives
Except having overall better bosses than base Elden Ring, the best gameplay in a From game not titled Sekiro or Armored Core, better music than Elden Ring, characters with unique abilities that are more than a set of starting stats, characters that actually interact with each other and aren't just lore mouthpieces that poof when their quest ends, a more satisfying ending than any of the Elden Ring endings, and probably some other stuff I forgot as well.

>>736222802
Since 22 you had Elden Ring, Armored Core and Shadow of the Erdtree.

>>736223323
That's it?
We need more

>>736223323
yeah, so it's been years. A multiplayer only game is a waste of time when their fanbase likes their singleplayer games. I know they've done shit like chromehouds in the past, they should've learned nobody gives a fuck about MP slop.

>>736222856
Becuase they're discord troons.
>>736222930
My problem with it is how fast you have to be, that's why I didn't pick it up, but it seems like a good game if you're into that.
>>736223081
I don't think anyone disagrees with that. What's your point?

>>736223094
>>736223134
>>736223149
Do you guys understand the game will have an important single player component?
This is not Counter Strike deathmatch.

>>736223429
My point is that it never translates into "millions of sales".
Nightreign only got like 200k sales

>>736223282
That game looks ugly. Everytime I see the concept art I get disappointed by what the game actually looks like.

>>736223506
when they reveal that there's a dedicated singleplayer offline mode and you don't have to touch any of their shitty multiplayer garbage then that'll be HUGE for the amount of interest people will have in the game

>>736223506
>Do you guys understand the game will have an important single player component?
Yes, just like Nightreign
VERY important, you are VERY SPECIAL if you play it

>>736223541
You can't possibly believe Nightreign only sold 200k.
It sold over 3 million copies in 5 days. It's over 5 millions by now.

>>736223626
It's different from Nightreign. My understanding is that it will be more single player focused and less fast-paced.

>>736223283
>characters with unique abilities
nta but I'd pay to have that, being able to climb and the improved sprint speed in Elden Ring. The Tarnished Edition could have added that but it's a nothingburger and it's stuck in development hell.

>>736221070
Incredibly hyped. If it comes out with great reception it's going to do very well.

>FromSoftware surprised fans with this week’s reveal of a new competitive multiplayer game for Switch 2, The Duskbloods. Alongside Elden Ring Nightreign, it’s the second multiplayer-forward game coming from the studio
>Miyazaki unpacks those game design ideas in the interview, saying that the playable characters in The Duskbloods, which are known as Bloodsworn, have abilities that lend themselves to multiplayer action, including dashes, double jumps, and long-range attacks.
>The eight-player PvPvE structure of The Duskbloods will follow a last-player standing rule set, for the most part. But the win conditions in the game’s multiplayer matches vary; players may need to eliminate a specific player or team up with another to take down a boss.
>“Regardless of whether it’s PvP or PvE, the idea is to provide players with an experience that allows them to learn and hone their skills as they play,” Miyazaki says.
>“[The Duskbloods] is an online multiplayer title at its core, but this doesn’t mean that we as a company have decided to shift to a more multiplayer-focused direction with titles going forward,“ Miyazaki says. “We still intend to actively develop single player focused games such as [Elden Ring] that embrace our more traditional style.“

TLDR; nightreign was the tech demo for duskbloods, so expect more of the same but bigger, better and more badass.

also, i didnt get nightreign and i wont get duskbloods, there are plenty of good singleplayer games on the switch 2 to enjoy, no need to get multiplayer slop

>>736221070
People aren’t excited for a pvp centric game on a platform that has not cultivated a FS fanbase.

>>736222856
Because the shazamtrannies got raped by Elden Ring, then were raped by AC6, then Erdtree, then Nightreign. They have been wrong for 4 years straight.

No, they rightfully hate Sony now. This Nintendo partnership has been in the works since 2019.

>>736224967

>>736225527
You get what im saying broski

>>736225423
Besides it not having exclusives, this generation in general is dogshit, with the only standout titles for me being BG3 and E33, both games that can run on pretty old PCs. All of Sony's titles are also a significant step down from last generation

>>736221070
>anti-Nintendo bias
I have nothing against Nintendo but am I supposed to be hyped about a game that's exclusive to a console that I'm never gonna get?
Anyway most people play Fromsoft games for the single player, although I'm sure that will this sell well enough

>>736221070
because that's not what I asked for

I want a mix between dark souls and bloodborne with a deep huge open world

duskbloods is some FoM trash for tendies

>>736226027

Will they ever improve the game mechanics? No.

>>736226524
Except FromSoft peaked at DaS and it's been a steady downfall after that because of the "lmaosohardpreparetodie" meme, they've completely erased any depth from their games and haven't improved a single thing, progressively making it worse even to the point where their golden goose franchise has become and open world ubislop garbage filled to the brim with useless junk and shit gameplay.

>>736226548
This being on a Nintendo consoles gives it no competition with Arc Raiders. Also, if I was betting on if Miyazaki was going to make a game better than some Euro no name dev, I'd pick Miyazaki every time.

>>736226676
Except people who own multiple systems and are invested in a multiplayer game already?
Why do you think people only own one gaming system? I have a switch 2 and a PC, would never touch duskbloods. I was interested initially but arc raiders is guaranteed to be 50,000x better than anything duskbloods could possibly be.

The games you mentioned attract a large public but I wouldn't necessarily call them good. I didn't play them. Maybe in the future I will play E33, maybe not.
I wouldn't say they are the standout games from this generation, there are far better games out there. Even simple games like Noita are far better. ER is definitely better, preferences aside. I don't agree with RE, especially the remakes, but I don't wanna start that conversation now.
My point is that the games you mentioned aren't at the top of the games released in the last years.

>>736227395
trust me dude, they could release a 15/10 multiplayer game and I still wouldn't care about it

What were they thinking? I'm betting it won't even have ping-based matchmaking like usual and everyone will be fighting with 300 ping + 20% packet loss.

this board was also shitting all over nightreign and then it was a massive success
given this is jumping on the pvpve bandwagon that's gaining some momentum i see it doing quite well

>>736224967
Everything you play on Steam is on PS5, except Squad.

>>736227709
Nintendo and multiplayer games that use their net code on the SW2 run 100x better than they did on the SW1. There's also lan support now. Your complaint is a non issue now and a major reason Fromsoft delayed The Duskbloods for the SW2 instead of releasing it on the SW1.

>>736227950
You are retarded and have no idea what you are talking about. You do know that the game platform (i.e steam, nintendo etc) is NOT netcode, right? Netcode is handled by the developers of the game. If you want a taste of fromsoft netcode go play DS1 where every player is delayed by like 5 seconds, teleporting everywhere, and the connection fails 90% of the time. All of their games are like this.

>>736227568
>I didn't play them
Shut the fuck up then retard.

>>736227362
What epic loot you fucking retard instead of wasting time and money filling your game with useless shit that doesn't serve the gameplay in any way you should instead focus on making a good fucking game

I am excited. I wasn't initially. But I had a lot more fun with Nightreign than I expected. And the PvPvE stuff of Duskblood, might, potentially appeal to me more than Nightreign anyway. So I really want to see more of the game.

>>736228408
There's no need to change the door opening animation if it means we get a new release from them every other year. A game by studios like Insomniac costs hundreds of millions of dollars for no good reason. Keep reusing assets, I don't give a fuck

Also, this isn't directed specifically at you, but I'm fucking tired of seeing newfags using the wrong abbreviation for Souls games. We used it correctly for years and now no one does anymore.
It's
DeS
DaS1
DaS2
DaS3

>>736221070
I bought a PS4 for Bloodborne and while it was a great game, it wasn't worth buying a console for. I feel the same way here. Also I'm just kinda done with Soulslop, its been done to death at this point.

I think that if Nighreign can be that much fun with so little effort put into it, they can make anything good. Even a Switch exclusive Bloodborne-esque PvPvE battle royale. Too bad I don't own a Switch

>Why is nobody excited for Duskbloods?
It's a console locked eight player battle royale.

Even ignoring the double dose of mandatory Nintendo paid online and Fromsoft quality spaghetti netcode, Duskbloods is also going to struggle hard to even maintain 30FPS given From's chronic inability to make smooth console titles, and we're already seeing their tech problems play out with taking an extra year to optimize the Switch version of Elden Bing after complaints about poor performance at TGS. I loved Nightbing, but I have zero hopes or expectations anything good can come from a competitive From Fortnite(real) with less players in matches than a tenth of any other BR on the market

>>736230297
The point of all PvEvP games is to make as little noise as possible while ganking anyone else that makes noise. The "fun" is killing distracted players daring to engage with any content

Elden Ring is the most replayable of any Souls game because it is so open you can get what you want from early on and not waste time.
DS2 is the second most replayable, but suffers from being underbaked.
DS1 locks most of the cool stuff behind getting to Anor Londo, which is lame. DS3 is just too linear.

Yeah, and most of the stuff you get out of the Demon Ruins is useless for a Sorcerer. Strength builds get nothing out of the Duke's Archives. Miracle builds have nothing to gain in the Undead Burgh.
Most RPGs will not have all locations be equally valuable to all builds. That is just normal.

but basically every point of interest in the game is copypasted content with 90%-dogshit exploration rewards, separated by massive abandoned fields (albeit with good visual style) whose content is even more generic than the POIs
every single soulsborne remains at least halfway interesting the whole way through, but elden ring is so fucking boring once you get used to the spectacle of the open world that i lost genuine interest halfway through Liurnia and dropped the game completely after getting through the Mountaintop
if you can go anywhere and do whatever you want practically whenever you want, then nothing means anything

>>736231783
Even IF that were true, what does that have to do with level design? Nothing.

>>736232662
No, it's not. Dark Souls 3 sold more. BB sold more, for all we know, could be surpassed. Sekiro sold more and probably won't be surpassed.

>>736229179
Dark Souls 1 tries new things in literally every area, arguably no encounter is used twice. It doesn't work 50% of the time but that's still more interesting than Ubisoft Ring.

Developer names are not magic seals that automatically make an idea good.
Fromsoft could announced Elden Ring 2 and if it was an Always-Online Multiplayer-focused PvP game it would get the same reception. There is a profound lack of awareness on their part as to who actually purchases fromsoft games. They are completely incapable of understanding that their core audience absolutely hates games like this and will never sell them as successfully as their games made for humans.

>>736221070
Because Fromsoft multiplayer doesn't hold up. Sure invasions and jovial coop are fun once in a while, but an entire fromsoft game built around multiplayer would get old very quickly.

>>736225015
Nightreign sold a tiny fraction of Elden Ring's sales and is reported as being gay dogshit for retards with no taste.(it is)

>>736237073
As long as it's single player first and you can turn the cringe multiplayer stuff off

I don't trust Switch Owners to use a wired connection, and I don't trust Fromsoft to have competent netcode

>>736235238
True.
I have not touched a nintendo console since the DS

>>736237259
Nightreign also costed less than a tiny fraction of ER and everyone who played it loved it.
Cope, seethe and dilate.

>>736236765
Nightreign's player count peak was higher than DS3 and Sekiro's and stayed higher with more people buying in for longer.
Dark Souls 3 sold 3 million in a month, Nightreign sold 5 million in a month and a half.

>>736237259
Nightreign is for people who can actually play this series and not need someone else to drop them a +10 rivers

Why use that when we have official numbers?
Dark Souls 3 sold over 15 million copies.
Sekiro sold over 10 million copies.
Bloodborne sold over 9 million.
Nightreign sold over 5 million copies.

>>736237637
Look at the timeline of those figures.

>>736225216
Nightreign surprised me, and I think Duskbloods actually has potential to be great, but I'm still not going to get a Switch 2 just for it, especially not with Nintendo's shitty online service.

>>736237436
That is GAME design as a whole, not level design specifically. Enemy AI has nothing to do with level design, for fuck's sake. At most you could argue enemy placement does.

>from soft multiplayer game
>nintendo atrocious online servers
its a double nope for me.

the last traditional fromsoft souls multiplayer experience was 10 years ago

>>736237681
I am tired of arguing with retards.
HOW MANY COPIES DID NIGHTREIGN SELL?
Do tell me. The official number, not some projection you have concoted from your analysis of player count charts.

>>736237716
Enemy AI is a major part of level design.
Games with enemy AI that can't pathfind properly have bad level design, for example.
How the enemies act as you play in the level is part of the level design. If the Anor Londo Archers weren't scripted to shoot you with arrows from a distance but instead aggro'd in the standard way, the level would be more poorly designed.

Success comes over comparing the velocity of sales of a game within a certain timeframe. DS3 has been out for 10 years. Nightreign, not even 1 year.
But over similar timeframes, Nightreign has more sales and higher player count than DS3. Indicating that after being out for the same amount of time, it will almost certainly have greater sales numbers.

>>736222145
I get matched with randos upon seconds of queueing in Nightreign.

If it has a dedicated single player mode, I'll check it out. I've always loved the invasion mechanic, though. We'll see what happens, I'll probably still buy it like a rube.

that's not how it usually goes for games that don't have as high as of critical approval especially when its a multiplayer game

>>736237869
We are arguing different things. That is a fect of game design in general.
Level design just concerns the terrain you're traveling through. Enemy Ai is not a subset of level design. They might be tangential but are different things. They definitely act synergically to give form to the final experience but so does music. Is music part of level design too just because a certain track starts playing once you reach a certain area?
>>736237924
No.

>>736238717
Yes, music is part of level design.
If Firelink didn't have its theme, people would care half as much about it.
But as I said, the basic format of DS1 level design is boring, particularly for the half the people like the most.

I respect Team Ninja and overall I enjoyed Nioh but there are so many things wrong with that game that it is hilarious. Almost all of the bosses can be beaten by strifing and quick attacks with the spear without taking any damage, Even Yuki Onna + Nobunaga.
The story in their games is always ridiculous telenovela slop and the level design is non existing.

I can look past most things except for how stupid the story is, they're very good games. But if you come to a souls thread and pretend like those games are better than whatever From game I will laugh in your face and ridicule you.

I am so glad to be a Pokemontard right now. When I boughtened the SW2 I didn't think I would get to play an exclusive From Software game too. It's like a gift from God.
I just started Metroid P4 and I have to say that it looks fun.
