Elden Ring [OT] Shadow of the Erdtree expansion announced











"As somebody who's played all of Miyazaki's games over at least the last decade, this is clearly the most ambitious game that he's done," he says. "I mean, I love his games, but seeing some of the gameplay mechanics stuff that he's tackling, he and the team are tackling this time, of the setting, working with another creator in terms of story. I love it."

The other creator Spencer mentions is, of course, Game of Thrones author George R. R. Martin, who has worked on the story for the upcoming open world game.

According to Spencer, Elden Ring is Miyazaki "expanding his horizons." He also says that leaves the room while Spencer plays. "I think that's because I'm a bad player, and then when he comes back we'll have a conversation about things that I think," he says. "He's so passionate about what he does. It's one of the things I just love about getting to work with him on some of these games and seeing them come to our platform."

"expanding his horizons."

This is exactly what I want from From Software. Breaking away from the tired Souls formula got us Sekiro so this sounds great. Really hope we get to see gameplay soon.

BoTW2 will be GOTY whichever year it releases in. Confidence remains unshaken, but I'd rather not see two of the greatest Japanese devs compete. Works for me toooo 🤷‍♂️:LOL:

From "LMAO @ Elden Ring's chances of winning GoTY"

to

"don't want two of the greatest Japanese devs to compete"

That's one approach :ROFLMAO:

Those statements don't conflict with each other (when viewed in context) 🤷‍♂️:LOL:
Except that CerebralTiger, in his hatred for "games Necrokiller is looking forward to", decided to include Elden Ring in the same vein as Ragnarok. And made quite the u-turn after the reviews 🤷‍♂️:ROFLMAO:

Too bad, for people like CerebralTiger, the game does absolutely nothing to change what makes Souls "sluggish". Exact same animations, and exactly the same animation priooooorities 🤷‍♂️:ROFLMAO:

    Phil should be held responsible for this shitfest too, just like Sarah, but it's highly likely that these decisions are coming from Satya. And this isn't even the end of it. More closures are coming.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
