RUMOR: Project Beast (From Software/Sony Japan Studio, PS4) [Port begging = ban]

DemonNite have to be subtle on leaking since he actually risk his job from doing it, so yeah I too take his hint more seriously. Also he hinted the Beast part twice, not once and that really is something. Though I'm curious what makes Sony delayed the reveal at last year's TGS into (presumably) this year's E3.
Yeah, it also makes too much sense for Miyzaki working at least on something. He's the guy who direct a game from cult status into high renown among core audienc. There could be no way he left unemployed for almost 2 years since Dark Souls II announcement.

Looks different enough to the Majula entrance...
Time to close the book on that theory.

I will say it looks nothing like the entrance to Majula.
Gravestones and dirt do not make them the same.

Yes, I've been following the posts. You never clarified beyond "beginning of the game" until now.
But no, it isn't.
If you actually put it like that, with badly compressed video screenshot vs badly compressed video screenshot, it becomes incredibly evident that the leaked shots definitely look better than Dark Souls.

Are you talking about this? Yeah I can see how they looked ripped straight from Dark Souls 2... >_>
I can't find a picture of the entrance to Majula.
How can you even tell that from the blurriness of the pictures?
You know guys I want this to be real, Demon's Souls was my favorite game of the last generaiton.. but I'm a bit skeptical.. on a number of things..

Eh.
To be honest I kinda hoped/still hope it was a new game, mechanics wise. I really don't want From to overdo it with the Souls (or Souls-like) games and make them on a Call of Duty schedule. From's capable of many types of game and I feel Miyazaki is more than talented enough for other genres.
If this is in a Victorian era as far as art direction though, that would definitely interest me. Souls with muskets or shotguns would really be annoying if PvP was still a thing though. XD

BruceLeeRoy already told us here in this thread not to worry about the graphics.
You can either 1.) post your evidence with images, 2.) leave the thread, or 3.) take a lengthy vacation.
Your call.
This seriously feels like something out of Dark Souls 1.
The original Dark Souls has this distinct gritty/dark look to it.I can't properly describe it but its definitely not there in Demon's Souls or Dark Souls 2.
Personally , I loved its art direction the most for sure ,and this seems to follow that route.
I was the most skeptic of all in this thread, but here are the facts:
- The character is consistent throughout all screenshots. Wears a Van Helsing-ish hat and a torn red cape. Uses ranged rifle/shotgun (first in series)
- Fog Gate is not in any released Souls game
- Fog Gate Rendering: The from software logo can easily be faked, but the way the gate is rendered cannot. It actually lits the character's cape , the same character from the other screenshots.
- The areas and enemies are not in any released Souls game
- DemonNite was teasing using the word Beast way too often
- Sony is obviously going to make use of the Souls franchise because of its popularity
- The art style is reminiscent of earlier From Software games (also, look at the camera offset. Exact same as in other Souls games)
- The square-enix game has been released as an Ios game, it's called Bloodmarque

I agree with this. Verendus and Mortimer are nice enough guys. But DemonNite doesn't even spoil the surprises, because he knows the value of them.

Seriously though, I can't see this not being on Xbone at some point.
It seems like Japanese companies are so hard up atm, they wouldn't make a big single platform exclusive like this. I know FROM are doing comparatively well, but still...

They're just refuting the poster claiming the pics were from DaS2.
Victorian is way too modern for this game's look. Swords were all but abandoned by victorian era.
Until you can prove the similarities, then you really have no reason to be sceptical. Jump aboard the hype train.
Ever since Project Offset got taken over by Intel for their Larabee GPGPU project and then canned, years ago....

And since Capcom revealed Deep Down last year for PS4 using their Panta Rhei engine (real time in-engine, though not gameplay and running on some high spec PC configuration, not final PS4 hardware).
I've had a yearning for games with this kind of imagery.
I only recently got Demon's Souls and Dark Souls 1 for PS3, and still very new to the series.
With Project Offset for PC long since canceled and PS4 Deep Down now a F2P game, and with the final, released console DSII being significantly downgraded and with me not having even a modest gaming PC to play DSII with its various community graphic mods, I am SO looking forward to what From and Sony Japan Studio will bring to the table on PS4 with a 'Souls game, whatever it may be.

No, but why would you smile at that? 0_0So .. does this mean that we will not see TLG
It's also a generation better.

Sony owns the IP and is publishing so... no?
Clearly the only medieval fantasy game that has stone archways is Dark Souls 2. It's not like they are a prominent style of architecture for stone-like structures or anything.
It's just comical now and I can't believe he's being serious. In fact, I don't believe he's being serious.

Even the blurry pics posted a few posts above you show that it looks nothing like the Project Beast shots.

My god... I'm so excited.
The giant mindflayer mention and torch-wielding townsfolk makes me think: what if this is a more Lovecraft inspired 'Souls' game than the more medieval fantasy stuff of Demon's/Dark?
Gah!!! Either way. Mybody soul is ready!

Guy has been talking nonsense for a while. Feet to the fire.
God, I'm dying here. Crestfallen as Shinji just make too much sense.
Fix'd
To Speedy's defense he has a PS4 and made a few posts on here loving on Infamous. He just likes to troll.
Like demon's souls you mean? The other game they where working with sony on? How was that on the 360, I forget?

If a first party help pays for the game, it wouldn't matter. Bayonetta 2 is in a similar situation.

That's gonna be a problem for you then; that seems to be exactly what is being described.
People keep reporting a rifle and/or shotty in the character's hand.
Oh, and as a general note, quit being all Bayonetta 2 up in here and calling multiplatform. Sony's helping to make the game, it's going to PS4 only. So as with Bayo and Wii U, just bite the bullet and fork over the cash for a PS4 if this interests you.
stolen info from 4chan and it's already in the OP. c'mon son.
