Demon's Souls 2 or Bloodborne 2, which would you want more and why?

Bloodborne 2. I prefer the eldritch element. Dark Souls is basically already Demon's Souls.

Bloodborne is the most enthralled I've been with the lore of a world since Morrowind. I want more.

There is no losing option here, so my answer doesn't really matter!
Don't even have to think, Bloodborne. Not only is Demon's very similar to Dark, I found Dark's world more interesting. Also Bloodborne has the better gameplay even if streamlined, a sequel could always expand on classes and such. Also Bloodborne's lore is top notch.
It's a shame we could get no more medieval dark fantasy from them but they'll probably keep doing dark fantasy games, medieval or not.
And in fact, I don't think we're getting any of both but other thing instead.

Either would be cool. Also really want a DeS port/remaster.
Above all, System Shock Souls.

We are probably getting this, too / at least. All is good.

They're currently working on a new IP that's a dark Fantasy ARPG project which will undoubtedly be similar to the souls games, but its a far enough departure from said games to not be considered one of them. So those interested in a new IP have that to look forward to.

We've already had 4 games with the midevil dark fantasy setting...
The only answer is BB.

But bloodborne happened in a small town and everything pretty much ended unless we move to Cainhurst and look for the corrupted blood
Demon Souls would be more appropiate since the ending is both ending can be used to fight about the old one control
for just a hair of a split second, I thought this was real lol. looks incredible.
Bring on Bloodborne 2, Sony/From.
Nothing really I'm checked out from series for now as much as Miyazaki unless it's new setting I would be slightly interested

No. Demon's and Dark are quite different.
There have TONS of posts about BB2 on this board and basically any gaming board that talks about the souls games so its not just about "one post". I want great games as well but the way to get great games isn't to retread games like Demons or BB. Those games are great on their own and don't need follow ups as they were self contained.

Well, that's just like you're opinion man
They play exactly the same. Only difference being Demon's Souls has aged with its shitty mechanics.

Neither. I would like them to tackle a different setting. Perhaps Sci-Fi or a using a different mythology for inspiration for the bosses. Some examples could be Norse, Greek, Indian, Aztek, Egyptian, etc.

Dark Souls is already fairly norse inspired, its just not overly overt

If forced to choose I would say Bloodborne because the faster game play and the story elements. But I also echo the calls for a game in this genre with a sci-fi setting.

There are many interesting takes on medieval fantasy in gaming. Very few games have unique takes on cosmic horror that don't retread the ideas/settings/creatures of Lovecraft and his friends/successors. And almost none of those have any kind of sizable budget or production quality to speak of in the way From's games do.
Given that I'd definitely like to see them do more with Bloodborne, but if there's no interest at From Software there's not much point in forcing it. I do hope that at some point in the future they revisit it though, until then I look forward to seeing what new ideas they come up with.

I don't own a PS4 and thus haven't even played Bloodborne, but Bloodborne 2. By and large, Souls is Souls. And I LOVE the games, but I've had four of them now. I think they'd be better served revisiting the themes and look less travelled.
Also, an inordinate amount of my Demon's Souls nostalgia is wrapped up in a single piece of music, which feels like an unreasonable justification to make a whole new one of those.
What, besides Yggdrasil, if I may ask?

DeS 2 for sure, while i adore Bloodborne it lacked the variety that was very important to me in the souls games.

This. DS3 felt like a mail in to me. (of course, I was a bit fatigued with the whole "Souls" thing anyway).
I just want Miyazaki do do what he wants. Just go nuts...I'll buy whatever he FromSoftware make day one.
