it's impossible for them to not win GOTY this year with both Fromsoft and Nintendo bonuses combined, but if they do lose somehow, then it'll mean that they're truly washed as shit and their glory days are over.

They'll win Multiplayer GotY, not GotY.

Imagine comparing a $40 asset flip from their B-team to a Miyazaki-led project that's been in the works before Elden Ring even released.

The snoy seethe is delicious. I can't wait until it outsells snoyborne

In a perfect scenario, if it DOES release on pc later, there will be crossplay
Either it does that or it stays stuck on switch 2, ill take either

I didn't get on the network test but disliked Nightreign, so would I like this?
From what I've seen (lmao) it still has that pvp shit where you hit someone, have to wait a few milliseconds and then the hit registers, it's annoying as fuck
Also does your attacks go through walls or only the enemies this time lmao.

>>746023156
if you played soulsgames offline then you missed out on 99% fun and content

It's fun but I just can't play something like this for more than a few matches at a time. The stress of the time crunch is too much for me at times. In Nightreign I find it less frustrating because you can always find a point of interest nearby that will have something useful, In duskbloods I found myself wandering aimlessly at times, wasting time on mobs that didn't drop virtue.

>>746027486
>I didn't get on the network test but disliked Nightreign, so would I like this?
Why did you dislike Nightreign? Duskbloods is more like a board game, where you do stuff to get points to survive the next round, you don't even need to do pvp to get to the last round for example.

>>746027540
You only played a slice of what the game has to offer here.

>>746022901

sure, if you´re content with playing on a 800x600 res with constant silky smooth 24fps while lagging trough nintendos servers and having to pay for it monthly, yea, then it really doesn´t need it aswell.
For people with at least some standards, it´s recommendend for the inevitable PC release.

>In The Duskbloods, you earn a specific type of Virtue called Blood Fang Virtue (or Commendation Virtue) specifically for having the highest AI enemy kill count in a phase. However, it is just one of several ways to accumulate points.

So much land travelled, so little sense made of it. It's like if you drove next to the Grand Canyon at 70MPH instead of stopping to admire anything. I hope they are smart enough to add a solo mode or at least a PVE mode where you don't have to compete to not get culled

Nah they fixed this. This is the first Souls engine game where the netcode actually works. What you see on screen is what happens, there's no phantom bullshit.

The map is a masterpiece. Load into the first grace and just look around at all the areas you can see from that first area. It's like 7+. The insane verticality is unparalleled. Bosses like Bayle, Rellana, and Mesmer are better than anything in base game ER. Bayle in particular is the greatest dragon fight in fromsoft to date and Rellana is a better melania without water fowl to ruin the fight.

Agreed, the SOTE map is almost structured like a 2D metroidvania like HK with like 5-6 plateaus that connect in odd ways, like you have to go from the top one to the bottom one to get back on the 2nd one from the top.

After painstakingly finishing Elden Ring's DLC I have SO MUCH Fromsoftware fatigue. Like A LOT of fatigue.
I don't wanna touch another souls-like in at least 2 or 3 years. And that's a shame because most of the high profile games nowadays are just that. Even games I had interest in like Silksong that should be a "metroidvania" a whole different genre, copy the stupid "annoying-tedious-difficult" footsteps from Souls.
Dark Souls and it's consequences have been a disaster for the gaming industry, I tell you man.

None of what you said also matters, because the details still don't line up. What makes you so sure Nintendo is fully funding this? And if they are, why don't they own the IP or even Publishing it in Japan as well? Bayonetta 2 and 3 ARE published by them everywhere. Eshop pages are usually accurate with their info so why is Fromsoft the ones in the page as the publishers? I remember this kind of detail before where i believe it was Triangle Strategy, initially the game was published by Nintendo in the Eshop page when it was an exclusive to the Switch, but once it was being ported elsewhere it was changed to Square Enix.
Prove me wrong then with some actual details instead of your feelings.

All this duskbloods talk actually got me to try out Bloodborne on my PC after promising myself to never try it out at least at the current time because of reasons like not believing at the time that it was legit or it would run badly and have tons of glitches and problems. But to my surprise now it's actually performing damn well.
It's been a while since i last played it but goddamn it's still so fucking peak. One feature or detail that i sorely miss in newer fromsoft games is the blood effect and how you can absolutely get covered in blood and the more you fight the more dirty you get before going back to the hunters dream or die.
It's a shame that The Duskbloods seem to not have this feature also despite the blood theming, would have been cool when the start of the match you're squeaky clean but by the end you're drenched in the blood of your enemies.

>>746023124

Nightreign felt more like a pointless grind for runes or whatever was that upgraded your stuff and being dependant on the loot you get or you could get from expeditions made them lame and sometimes unwinnable if you just were starting so the progression felt all fucked up. I know that later it gets better but for me i just wasn't having fun.
From what I've seen Duskbloods feels more focused because you have only one weapon and the vigor shit can be obtained in a variety of ways so maybe this one is better, hope they do an open network test in the future.

So what? Just because the final battle could end up being against a boss doesn't mean everything beforehand won't be a PvP fest, you're literally getting points just so you don't get culled against other players and not to mention all the random events like the ritual sites where the point is the PvP and get points. It's still fucking PvP.

>>746052083
>doesn't mean everything beforehand won't be a PvP fest
You could just farm mobs and do the trespasser raids. Doing the pvp rituals is not mandatory because you can just do the other stuff.

>>746052083
There are even boss events that you apparently specifically co-op for, like if you run into the fight you cant hurt other players and get shared rewards, or so im told anyway
>b-but its still pvp
so is arc raiders, doesnt mean people are frothing at the mouth to grief youbut it would be funny if they did

>>746052381
Just because it's not mandatory doesn't mean it's not important. The rituals give some out some of the highest amount of virtue and if 3 players who already has decent amount of points go for it, then they're guaranteed to enter the final battle while your ass gets culled.
>>746052652
My point in the end is this is the type of game where you'll never been 100% free of PvP, there's always a slight chance that some chunklenut wants to beat your ass and waste your time, that you end up with not enough points and have to fight others in the ritual sites. It's never gonna be a guarantee every match that you're not gonna PvP.
Dunno why you're so defensive over that statement when it's a reality that this game is very multiplayer PvP focused. Why do you think they make it so that the 1v1v1 is the final battle for the test server? That's literally the highlighted game mode for them.

>>746053380
Oh, so you haven't played the game.

Have you considered not being bad at videogames?
Unironically get good, step out of your comfort zone and try
I thought the whole premise of souls was to smash your head against the wall until you figure out the exact pressurepoint to crack it before your skull does, why would pvp be any different?
Just fail and learn until you dunk on people

>>746053736
