Be very afraid.
I think Dark Souls 2 might still be 'pure', but Dark Souls 3 certainly won't be.
By that time we'll probably have Miyazaki's new game.

That's not a good thing.
I hope Namco Bandai don't destroy this game by trying to "Appeal to a wider audience."

Don't believe this to be honest. They know why people bought the games, they will never get Skyrim success, and they know this. They could have easily made Dark Souls 2 impure, nothing was stopping them, why would they change anything for next time? Dark Souls 2 will probably sell 3m with a bit more advertising, and that should be more than satisfying for someone like Namco Bandai. Not sure they would risk going in a mainstream direction and ending up with less when it is going so well already.
Plenty of people have been scared shitless that with every mention of other games or opening up the game, it would suddenly be ruined, but those people have been proven wrong when they released the game footage. Yet they continue to be super skeptical when there is little reason to be.
Edit: Folks must also remember FROM is self-publishing in Japan. That means Namco doesn't really get a say in how the game is being made, if Namco Bandai was unhappy with how Dark Souls 2 sold, they would simply drop them, and another less greedy publisher could simply pick them up instead.
Playing devil's advocate here, they also know how Skyrim got the success it had.
Playing down to the lowest common denominator.
It's not that simple, or else Fable would be a roaring success. Of course, it'll still be bad nevertheless if they try to seriously go in that "we want all the Skyrim players" direction with DSIII.Playing devil's advocate here, they also know how Skyrim got the success it had.

2014 feels like a long way off. Not that I'm in any rush to play this game. I'd rather them take their time. I hope they reveal King's Field V in the meantime!
lol, never going to drop this!

Already delayed my purchase of a PS4 to early next year because of GT6, now I'm delaying it further because of this.
9 months. Begin the countdown.
Going by the two games he mentions, probably because he wouldn't have time for anything else. DS2 will be the end of all other games for 2-3 months for me.
