This will most likely be cross-gen.

Meaning it will run like shit on PS4, and slightly less like shit on PS5.

The camera will still be bad.

I dunno... That first boss in BB on that bridge was a nightmare battling the camera.. especially with multiple lock-on points.

one big tip i can give you while playing these games is to not lock on to large bosses. Just use the camera to navigate the battlefield.

The lock on camera in the original Dark Souls was one of the most laughably bad things I've ever experienced. Enemy two fit in front of me, hit lock on, locks on to god knows what somewhere on the other side of the planet. G fucking G. And then the second or third boss in that tiny room? GTFO.

Either you lock on, or you claw(because the dodge is with a face button), both are shit with some bosses.

Oh good, they're proudly announcing it as a franchise before the first game is out.

I can't think of any situation where that's backfired before.

Looks disappointingly close to Souls, indeed, some of the animations (like that walk) look straight up ported over from DS3.
Still, maybe the open world formula will bring significant changes.

Sekiro looked like a bigger departure so far.

still not sure how open field & horse riding will work within the strengths of From's tight level design. Will give them the benefit of doubt for now.

After finishing up Demon's Souls, I'm down for some more Souls combat. I trust Miyazaki to do some interesting stuff with an open world.

Just sucks it looks so much like DS3 but we kind of knew before hand it wouldn't come close to the DeS remake graphically.  :doge

yeah, i mean, it's potato quality video but you can infer the textures and lighting are very last gen in that trailer at least. will most likely be a day 1 purchase anyway, unless initial impressions are atrocious. i can imagine some fun changes to combat and party systems to account for larger environments, more power, bigger aoe spells. i wanna see the earth roil and giants fall at my feet

idk, I think the new Demon Souls looks hot, but I still don't have issue with DS3/Bloodborne/Sekiro visuals. Those games still look good thanks to great art and perfectly fine gfx work. This looks good to me.

I feel like the boss fights should be fine even if in more open environments. Plenty of Souls/Sekiro bosses are in wider arenas and it doesn't change much. Plus the trailer shows some interior stuff so bosses can be in castles that have linear tighter corridor design.

Hell I wouldn't even be surprised if the big open fields are just hubs to link to linear standard Souls levels (Sewers, Castles, etc...) kinda like SoTC. Maybe with some field bosses and loot spread around.

I think Bloodborne's art saves it, as do the dense, detailed environments.  If we could get it running at 60 and turn the chromatic aberration off, it would still look solid imo.

I feel like Naff is one of the only people to feel that way about the graphics in Bloodborne and DS3. I put: "Bloodborne didn't age well" into google and most what comes up is people going back to the game and talking about how well it holds up.

At some point all the games out now will look outdated. Especially ones that target realism. I don't see how that's a problem though.

Bloodbourne really hasnt aged well, and it's mostly not even because the core graphics there. The chromatic abberation is terrible and even worse the frame pacing is VERY VERY TERRIBLE, makes the game looks so bad in motion, actually kept giving me a headache.







So messy. Just give us the option to at least turn that off, From

God help this game if it's still cross gen. Base Xbone and PS4 will be sub 1080P and a framerate that hovers below 30.

It would make sense if cross gen plans also added to development time. Working on 6 different SKUs, especially for a studio like From, would result in a series of clusterfucks.

While I'm typically not against cross gen games, the disparity between current gen and last gen will be huge. This was also announced in 2019 (I think). If it releases 2022, there will be enough current gen consoles out there to get decent sales.

Those things were already bad back when it first released. It has nothing to do with the game's age.

idk, i downloaded bb on ps5 and yeah, it stutters real bad and everything is shiny and weird. that said i like the aesthetic. when i first played DS3 i was p blown away by the aesthetic and how smooth it was (first time playing souls at 60fps on pc) and going back to replay it was just very underwhelming.

there are similar issues with frame pacing like bloodbornes when you switch to graphix mode in demon's souls, and most people would say the graphics mode in demon's is unplayable. for a game that relies on iframes it's especially annoying. on top of that we know there have been fan patches on modded consoles that fix the issue. fromsoft fucking suck at patching their technical issues.

edit: "most people" is prob an exaggeration, but the deso remake would be a hell of a lot worse technically (imo) if they didn't include perf mode.

That would make sense, I suppose.

I believe Elden Ring started after The Ringed City DLC finished up, which was March 2017. So that trailer would have been 2 years and some change into development, and we're now coming up on an additional 2 years this summer. It could be quite a bit different now.

i am definitely interested in open world souls, but it looks nothing special from this trailer (fully understanding this is a leak/extremely early build. i also have little faith from will do anything dramatically improved than what they've become comfortable making, which is pretty good). can imagine open spaces being quite fun when negotiating them has some pattern/puzzle solving to be done with enemies / obstacles you can't just ignore and hoon past on your horse. hopefully the larger obstacles like dragons will be a little more dynamic unlike previous entries, i think the fly by wire roboticism worked well in the ultra constrained corridors of the old games but would feel extremely dated in a modern open world game.
