Topic: Bloodborne: PS4 exclusive by FROM Software

[Kingshango]

Rumor started on /v/ with some screenshots of a mysterious game that looks very "Souls-ish" (well more Souls ish than Lords of the Fallen), then it spread on to Neogaf and a couple insiders confirmed it's legitimacy.







To me, this was the image that sealed the deal that this game is indeed real.

he walked around

 fought enemies

 i can describe a giant mindflayer type enemy

 a character placing a shining magic sword into a pedestal at the base of a statue

 a huge pyromancy fireball

 shotguns

 there was text "This is a nightmare."

E3 hype is in full swing now, shame it had to leak out, could have mad an awesome reveal.

Huh. Well if its Souls like/related I'm down, although I'm certainly not going to be buying a new system just for one game. I hate new console generations.

Part of me wishes they'd make a new Otogi or Lost Kingdoms game.

PS4 exclusive...

Its like they hate money...

also, I've heard dubious claims myself. I heard it was a hoax and the screens are actually a Squeenix project

That ended up being an iOS game which name ecsapes me atm.

The resident Gaf insider(s), including a few mods, are %100 positive that this is the next Souls game. In fact, one of them was hinting this game from as far back as last June and no one realized it.

I believe it's a new souls title because it is the only series so-far (that I know of) which uses that white mist door leading into the next area or bossfight. And no-doubt this game is also going to be balls-to-the-walls hard.

I guess this is why Dark Souls 2 was so lackluster compared to Dark Souls 1. They were putting their effort into this.

Sony is taking part in its development so it's only natural that it'll be exclusive. Sony didn't have any faith in Demon Souls, but after that and the success of Dark Souls they changed their mind.

I really hope it's Demon's Souls 2. I like Dark Souls but I like Demon's a lot more. The atmosphere and story are better imo. If it is a sequel to Demon's Souls I think it makes sense it's a Sony only since the first game is Sony only.

And yes he is welding a shotgun and a whip (I think).

Still hoping this isn't a PS4 exclusive, or at least a delayed PC release. I like how it looks, but I'm not buying a console just for this game, on top of a monthly fee for online. From's making a huge mistake if it's PS4 exclusive. How many people actually remember Demon's Soul's compared to how big Dark Souls got from being Multiplat? While it's true that exclusives sell consoles, at the same time, PC is currently the strongest gaming platform, much stronger than it was before. Before, even up till the PS1, a PS1 or an N64 were cheaper and often had better performance than, and more games than a PC. Nowadays, Consoles are cheaper and give worse performance than a PC, which has become a gaming platform all it's own with the advent of the internet, and programs like Steam. Of course, japan can't into PC, for some reason. And never really did.

If it's PS4 exclusive, then I GUARANTEE you, the day they make Dark Souls 3, or any other multiplat Souls game, this will very quickly be forgotten, and outsold.

I mean, there's a Dark Souls 2 and not a Demon's Souls 2 for a reason, after all.

Damn, I'm getting CV-feels from these gifs. He's got Alucard's backslide, and the whip thing? Not to mention the look(shotgun, hat and cloak), it looks like it taking some cues from 19th century horror. Dammit this looks so cool!!!

Dark souls has always had a backstep though.

With all jokes and comments aside, how will the hit-boxes be?

[DragonSlayr81]

Guess the news is that it's officially called "Bloodborne". Victorian gothic horror mixed with Souls-like exploration? Sign me up! Interestingly enough, many know, I wanted Castlevania to tackle this in a 3D game(more so than the CV64 games). Oh well, might not be from CV, but I'm getting my taste satisfied!

So many 2015 games announced, what's even the point of 2014 now?

Besides Bayonetta 2 and Smash?
