... I like the name ...

You can't.

It's uninspired.

 

[Hoo-doo]

I swear I did a double take. This definitely brings to mind the Souls games. Even the logo is eerily similar.

Don't you dare get my hopes up, you.. you monster.

 

[btkadams]

Anyhow, does the description mean it's specifically for handheld or is it a generic description that's used for all patents of this nature?

if i am reading it correctly, it is generic so that it covers all platforms.

 

[Silvawuff]

Probably a browser game with heavy DLC.

Final Fantasy XV: Destiny of Spirits?

Final Fantasy it's a Square Enix franchise.

Legend of the Dragoon: Destiny of Spirits would be awesome.

 

[EloquentM]

There's a hate force for everything.

 

[Portugeezer]

Souls' games have a lot of Spirits to pick up, maybe that's why.

 

[Wuthering_Heights]

Final Fantasy it's a Square Enix franchise.

Legend of the Dragoon: Destiny of Spirits would be awesome.

Uncharted 4: Destiny of Spirits

 

[Magnus]

What a generic, boring-ass name.

What exactly would an 'inspired' name, be?

Something that didn't look like it was spat out of a name generator. It's terribly generic.

And it almost doesn't matter; if enough people think it looks bland and boring, as they do in this thread, then it's bland and boring.

 

[LuuKyK]

I swear I did a double take. This definitely brings to mind the Souls games. Even the logo is eerily similar.

The logo is just a generic one. From the document:

The mark consists of standard characters, without claim to any particular font, style, size, or color.

 

[Americanmushroom]

GAF: We know nothing about the game except it's name. => conclusion: let's complain about the name

 

[Callibretto]

What about Spirits of Destiny?

Thats not the same meaning as destiny of spirits right? English is not my 1st language

 

[Baconsammy]

What a generic, boring-ass name.

With names as bad as this, I always assume it sounded cooler in Japanese.

 

[Ghost_Protocol]

No worse than Demon's Souls (which is a really, really awful name if you think about it long enough.

If you told me 4 years ago that I would sink 400+ hours into a game called "Demon's Souls" I would have laughed for days.

 

[StuBurns]

GAF: We know nothing about the game except it's name. => conclusion: let's complain about the name

Good point. Lock the thread, there is only one piece of news, and discussing it is apparently not fitting GAF's good name.

 

[dark_prinny]

There's a hate force for everything.

Sad, but true.

 

[Jay Sosa]

Sounds like a JRPG.

 

[Baconsammy]

There's a hate force for everything.

There has to be since there's a defense force for everything. The universe requires balance.

 

[Akainu]

I've already forgot the title.

Change it, seriously.

Spirits of Destiny?

 

[Anticitizen One]

This must be the Sony wrpg we have all been waiting for

 

[Glix]

Sounds like an Iga Castlevania game

 

[Spinluck]

FolksSoul is the Japanese title for Folklore

Souls = Spirits

Destiny of Spirits = Folklore 2.

Let it go.

*Pats back*

 

[Takao]

Maybe it's the western title for Ore No Shikabane Koete Yuki ...

 

[Hoo-doo]

There has to be since there's a defense force for everything. The universe requires balance.

Why would a new IP even need a defense/hate force? They are new games, let's all rejoice regardless of the name.

 

[Callibretto]

Spirits of Destiny?

Mayba Spirits is the name of the main character.

 

[Respawn]

Wow at that uninspired name...

Uninspired first post. You didn't nail it.

Anyone has any idea what this might be about? Nirolak maybe?

 

[Jay Sosa]

Why would a new IP even need a defense/hate force? They are new games, let's all rejoice regardless of the name.

Eh, it's a slow news day, let them have their fun. And it really is an awful name.

 

[Callibretto]

Maybe it's the western title for Ore No Shikabane Koete Yuki ...

Hmm, it can fit I guess.

Maybe its suikoden 6.... nah...

 

[Baconsammy]

Why would a new IP even need a defense/hate force? They are new games, let's all rejoice regardless of the name.

It was just a general statement. A stupid one at that. I'm with you on the new game thing. As long as it's not the part of the title that follows the ":", it's a good thing. I definitely don't want it to be Final Fantasy: Generic Name, or Castlevania: Generic Name. New IPs please.

 

[Acquiescence]

So did Gaf bitch this fucking loudly when Demon's Souls was announced?

 

[jimmypython]

could be the western release of "over my dead body 2" for the Vita

 

[Oersted]

Wow at that uninspired name...

Wait for the sequel:

Destiny of Spirits: Absolution.

 

[wapplew]

I know what is destiny of spirit, they become lifestream at the planet Gaia.
There, FF7 remake on Vita!

 

[googleplex]

FolksSoul is the Japanese title for Folklore

Souls = Spirits

Destiny of Spirits = Folklore 2.

I'm going to need you not to post this any more, because I would get too excited for a Folklore 2. Then I will be crushed when it doesn't happen.

 

[Zekra Dezivad]

What exactly would an 'inspired' name, be?

Destiny of Spirits U

 

[dark_prinny]

Destiny of Spirits U

0/10.

 

[pants]

What exactly would an 'inspired' name, be?

Et dirty hobo c'est moi

 

[Wuthering_Heights]

Et dirty hobo c'est moi

Why's it gotta be a dirty hobo?

Why can't he just be a human being?

 

[Sapphire Dreams]

I wonder what kind of game it is, if it was even a game.

 

[EloquentM]

I wonder what kind of game it is, if it was even a game.

A generic game

 

[dark_prinny]

I wonder what kind of game it is, if it was even a game.

An unispired one.

 

[Canis lupus]

Sounds rpg-esque

 

[Alias Greed]

Wow everyone is always negative by default! And just based on the name too. You probably would have said the same hearing 'final fantasy' for the first time.

This.

Let's hope a good game comes out of this.

 

[Takao]

could be the western release of "over my dead body 2" for the Vita

If it is, this thread will be eating a lot of crow, as the game is far from generic:

 

[DesertFox]

I suspect this is some sort of April fools joke... I'm just not getting the joke

 

[eddfromtheriver]

Right "Halo" is very inspired... or "Fable"... or "Lost Odyssey"... or whatever...

The important is the game, not the name.

I think the problem is that there are no images just a name to go by right now, and it doesn't sound that inspired.

 

[immortal-joe]

Localization of "Over my Dead Body 2"

 

[HoJu]

I wonder what kind of game it is, if it was even a game.

Probably a trading card game.
Oh and yeah it is a bad name. This is literally all we know about the product. The name. And it's a bad one.

Infinite Undiscovery is also a terrible name. This name isn't as bad as that name, but it's pretty close.

 

[pants]

Why's it gotta be a dirty hobo?

Why can't he just be a human being?

Only dirty hobos and space hobos are cool, all other forms of hobos are lame

 

[KiNeSiS]

I hope it's a Sony original take on Demon's Souls, like Soul Sacrifice kind of was to Monster Hunter.

Any one remember when Vita was revealed, it was called ngp & had some pictures on a screen shot with very Demon's Souls looking environments.
