VGChartz's Issa Maki: "Like many in our fraternity, I too am preparing for the release of Elden Ring: I have linked the Fire across the Lands of Cinder, gone on the 'Hunt', defeated Isshin the Sword Saint, and assayed the role of the Old Monk more times than I care to admit in print. But unlike many of my contemporaries ready to march forward, I decided to take the step backwards for a more holistic viewpoint, to an era when FromSoftware was a virtual non-entity, paying dues and learning the lessons that would help it survive into the post-HD world."
A sequel to the studio's acclaimed title, Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice, would be the perfect swan song for long-time video game director Hidetaka Miyazaki.
I just don't see it happening given the success of Elden Ring. I think we'll be seeing a sequel to Elden Ring before anything else.
I'm not into souls games but it's good to see that this dev studio stick to what makes their titles unique, there's alot of souls copy n pasted games but they rarely get talked about cause they're looked at as copies and not original created ideas, the souls games are unique cause they offer they're own identity instead imitating I respect that
Or Bloodborne 2 preferably both but that’s a lot to ask if he plans on retiring sooner than later
With this feature, we will be taking a look at Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice all these years later and break down why it remains such a great time.
Absolutely. Amazing art design, and didn’t have the Bloodborne problem so it runs at 60FPS on newer hardware, which is amazing given the reaction based gameplay
This one title that never clicked with me. I enjoyed Dark Souls, Demon Souls and Bloodborne, but I never warmed up to Sekiro’s parry-focused combat. I honestly gave up on the game at about the half way point.
The Souls-like genre remains popular, along with FromSoftware's classics there are many contenders. But which are the best Souls-like games?
Hmm... In my opinion, the 7 best are the 6 made by FromSoftware (DeS, DS1, DS2, DS3, BB and ER), then Lies of P. But each to their own.
