    Agreed on DS3. The part of this botched release that irks me most is that FromSoft is taking away a lot of the fun of the games: to discover and learn and try to piece together all the parts of the gameplay and story together along with the rest of the community. They've essentially taken that away from a huge chunk of their fanbase by staggering the release so wildly and handing out promo copies to streamers without any restrictions.

     

    When most of the rest of the world gets the game, nearly every bit of lore and boss weaknesses and any other fun and interesting details will be readily online, high level players will be rampant to invade/troll via messages, etc. I was really hoping for a relatively blind play through given that this is the 'last' Souls game, but that has been shot to fuck. I'll still enjoy the game I'm sure, but damn did they ruin what could be been a great send off for this iteration of the series.

    Yeah, I've only heard stories about the early stages of Dark Souls when there was nothing online about bosses, enemies or even mechanics. I wasn't into it at the time, but it sounded great. For DkS2 I just waited for the PC version, which came out when there was pretty much nothing to discover anymore. I really hoped for a blind playthrough this time but it's getting hard not to learn anything about the games since even if you're not trying there's like huge signs on YouTube and such about what's in the game. And since I watch a lot Dark Souls related stuff, my feed is infested.

    That DkS3 release date really is bullshit. I really don't understand why it releases so late compared to Japan while probably every youtuber who has ~100k views per video got their english copy almost 2 weeks ago. Seeing IGN posting a video titled "This new Dark Souls 3 boss does [this] and [that]" makes me want to line all them guys up and shoot them. Isn't this a game where everyone should discover everything at the same time ? Perhaps building hype and jealousy by allowing people to make so many videos when the game ISN'T EVEN OUT YET is good for sales but still that's pretty rude.

    its lame. most reboots/sequels nowadays stick too close to the original on account of not annoying the fans (altho deep down we all know its more on account of making something the audience will recognize and draw bigger numbers at the box office because at the end of the day that's all that really matters anymore when making a big budget film).

     

    would be very nice for this film to take a fresh approach and not sit too closely to the original. ((( *cough* mad max style, perhaps )))

    Yeah actually I'd be okay with an OTT but well-crafted action movie like Mad Max.

     

    I don't think we should expect something stale from Villeneuve anyway.
