Bruh, Geralt is straight up the hottest bruh.Fuck NO. Blonde boy Is hot. Hotter than Geralt.
Dark Souls with Ninja Gaiden gameplay.
That movement in combat is so sluggish it's kinda turning me off.
Geralt is old and ugly.
Okay... so talk about him rather than Geralt?
This was the first time I've ever heard of the title, but the gameplay and atmosphere had me hooked immediately. Can't wait to play it. In the meantime, though, I decided to translate some of the information given in the video in the OP. Some of it is explained in the VG247 article, but not everything. I'm far from an expert in Japanese (but I'll be going there for a year to study in a couple of weeks!), so please bear with me if there are some slight inaccuracies. I also couldn't make out the name of some mechanics.
- On the bottom right are four icons that determines fighting stance.
- Your Offensive and defensive capabilities are dependant on stance and can be changed on the fly.
- There are bloddy katanas on the ground where other people have died.
- Apparently you can active them and fight against them for good loot.
- (I can't make out what word they used to describe them so I'm not sure if you fight them in PvP or if you fight AI units that look like the players.)
- You can change armor and weapon in real time, so make sure you're in a safe area when you do.
- There are also spears in the game that are good against groups of enemies.
- There are guardian spirits that William can see and infuse into his weapon for a limited time like the flame wolf and the blue owl.
- Guardian spirits appear after you die. (I guess as a helping hand?)
- You will have to decide when to use it apparently, so there might be a limit.
- There are shrines where you level up with the experience you've saved up, and where you can change spirit.
- In some locations you might come across some strange flimmering (can't make out what they call it), which when you approach will spawn a youkai that drops good loot.
- The boss shown is called an onryou (revengeful demon), a powerful oni.
- You heal in realtime so it's important to look for an opening to do so.
- When he heals he infuses his weapon with what looks like a blue owl spirit, different from the fire wolf from earlier.
Well, I finally watched all of it. Truly looks like shit but I'll probably buy it anyway solely for the ract that I'm action adventure starved.
It still looks nothing like Onimusha.
I'd relate this more to Otogi to Dark Souls, even.

A souls-like?
Eh, I'll pass then
Are you going to be irrationally pissy about this game because it takes some good ideas from your precious Souls series?
Thanks Pricken for taking the time to translate and write out those details!
This game looks to be a great hybrid of Souls and Onimusha, along with it having the visual flare that Ninja Theory is known for in their games. Imo...William is a pretty generic name for one who hunts demons and ghost. Hopefully they'll change it to something more fitting..lol.
60 FPS would be ideal, especially with how fast the enemies hit. Need that fluidity in frames to react accordingly.. Lol
Ooooo had that souls vibe going for it!
I'm brown and down for this!
Yeah but why does this game look like shit?I am sensing some anger in this post. I have a very polarized opinion about the Souls games, so I think my answer to your questions is... no .Here's my Lords of the Fallen summary to give you some perspective how I see games that are inspired by the Souls games! I encourage developers to make Souls-inspired games because more good games in my world is just a positive thing.

I'm not want to ruin the thread but what about fps? 30?

Eh, he's fuckable in that DILF kind of way.
Well, we are, aren't we? I said "blonde boy".
(I've heard from someone, but not confirmed, that it will be simultaneous market release)
It still looks nothing like Onimusha.
