God... can you picture how bad it will be to get killed by wheelchair bound oldmen wielding outdated guns?

Oh the gifs that shall be made.

Player slices through 5 enemies like nothing and poses like a badass.

One of the characters the game is named Hunter Gascoigne and he’s described as follows:
  • "A lone person standing in a graveyard among the whirling ashes, he’s a bloodied hunter. He looks like an experienced veteran, but details are unknown."

Obviously this game will compare to Dark Souls, But I hope they can match how amazing the NPCs are in Dark Souls. There isn't many of them but that adds to the appeal. That feeling you get when you find an NPC in Dark Souls is unmatched, it's like you're traversing this unforgiving land, then all of a sudden you meet someone meet someone he hasn't gone hollow. It's like making a new friend, I love it.
 
I'm curious as to what type of armors can the character use. I take it all of them will be light, still I'm curious of their design.

I really doubt the game will come out in the next 6 months...but I wouldn't mind eating crow for this one :D

The levels of hype for this are reaching toxic levels. Really need to nab a PS4 for this T_T
That being said if there isn't an option to roll around in a wheelchair as a player I will be disappointed.

I'm liking the area themes so far. The graveyard areas look very different from the more dense cathedral areas.

Hoping to see a factory area with all sorts of nasty industrial revolution stuff.
 
This looks so amazing. I can safely say that I will be pre-ordering this even if I font have a PS4 by then. It'll give me a good reason to finish up my current backlog and then put aside some money for a PS4!

by the way all of that info comes (probably, didn't translate it but same pics) from the famitsu scans. is it not ok to post them or to link famitsu at all?
 
Woah, first time I've seen this. 2 hunters? Do we have any info on the co-op?

This is all Miyazaki has said about Bloodborne's online features

Approaching Network Systems from a Social Science Perspective

Miyazaki:
The third concept I mentioned, “new online elements,” is something I can’t talk in detail about right now. The key phrase would be “free sharing of exploration,” but I can’t say any more about it, so please wait for future announcements.

4Gamer:
New online elements, you say?

Miyazaki:
Yes. Just like with Demon’s Souls, we want to do something cool with the network features.

I wonder what the explanation will be of why the other people are much taller than you...My current theory is that people (maybe even including players) progressively get taller and more hunched over the closer you get to becoming a "beast", before you eventually turn completely.

So good. The art design is unbelievable.

With Bloodborne and The Order, I'm going to get my gothic fill next year. I've been waiting so long for games with this kind of setting and atmosphere. Delicious.

regain sounds brilliant. discourages running away, incentive for staying in the fight, demands you learn how to play well offensively. that's great

So badass.....I wish we can do that as well

It's amazing how one moment can make one guy look so awesome

I was thinking the same thing. It would explain why the townspeople and experienced hunter are so tall.

From Software has become my favourite Japanese developer. This game brings so many fresh ideas and concepts yet it still retains the best aspects of the Souls games.

I never really cared much for the Souls games, but this game looks right up my alley. The main character even looks exactly like my D&D character!

Love the graphics and art style,but hope they have more traditional style swords for weapons ( dual wield would even be cool). Just Not a giant axe/razor guy personally :/

You guys are going to explode when you see some of the armour/weapons...

Pun intended?
 
Just give me the option to bait the wheelchair mob to fall down a flight of stairs and I'll call this GOTY.

Or hell, kick them down a flight of stairs.
 
I hope this game has a stronger narrative and story focus than the Souls' titles.

Have they discussed anything about that? Anyone know?
