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

Any GAF artists want to whip up a picture of the character in the screens? It's too blurry for me to make any detail out, maybe someone with a good eye can draw it a bit clearer.

So can we now drop the pretense that DEEP DOWN looks even remotely good and interesting?

NO. Deep down still looks good and interesting
 
I know its still early development but i'm kind of worried about the lighting when I see this pic:

The shadows are all wrong, its like the torches dont emit lights if you look at the guy's shadow...

It's probably not since it's not Zelda enough.

Lol. Not a bad thing. I want an RPG, not so much an adventure game.

Please be aware that my memory is certainly something that I am not so proud of, so maybe I am confusing you with someone else called Sage something? I am sure its a possibilty. :p

I'm afraid I am only ever "Sage Shinigami" (or "SageShini" which is still the same thing really), so if you know of another "Sage" something that posts/posted on GAF, it is not me.

Please have this warning about pc port begging, and the subsequent pc vs console rants that will accompany it in every Project Beast thread, it's inevitable 1 platform only, non PS4 people will reshape the discussions in these threads.

Driveclub threads desperately need that modding too. Easy picking because it was delayed, but the 1080P30 announcement thread even had a guy proclaim his intentions to never buy dirty consoles and then write a 2 paragraph PC fanboy screed.

If you're never buying a console by your own admission, why are you stinking up a console exclusive thread?
 
After keeping its shit so airtight this long, I'm 100% certain that it's a deliberate leak.

As big as Souls is among us hardcore, it's not likely to whip up a firestorm of hype among the general population. So a "leak" like this gets the hardcore buzzing and hyped for E3. More importantly, however, it gives this new game the type of attention it wouldn't get when revealed alongside a raft of other, higher-profile megatons.

The screencaps provide a few tantalizing details that make us want to see more, and we'll have to tune in next month at E3 to see it in glorious, living motion.

Sony knows exactly what they're doing. And I doubt Microsoft will be far behind with some well-timed "leaks" either.

I seriously doubt that the shitty quality of these pics was the first impression they wanted people to have of the game.

Deep Down still looks really good.....only worry is the content amount and F2P scheme.

Yeah, game looks damn good...and because it's free-to-play, I will at least be able to try it. However, I do have my concerns about the in-game purchases and progression of the game, just like most everyone here. However, Dragon's Dogma was a great game and I hope this one turns out to be even better.
 
Guys it might still be a fake, you know :/

This has been hashed out pretty thoroughly already. Fake logos or single low-detail shots are easy to manage; a fake series of reasonably high-detail shots is quite difficult and definitely not worth the effort. We've also had Sony insiders hinting about this (in ways only obvious in retrospect) for months. It's real.

After keeping its shit so airtight this long, I'm 100% certain that it's a deliberate leak.

Not this nonsense again. Yes, I'm sure Sony is really happy that this is getting shown off via randomly-chosen, out-of-focus shots instead of a big impressive reveal trailer at an event with major media coverage.

Samurai deffo on the right hand as shown in other pic. But what is it on the left hand? Extreme "Extra-thick" cane or a shotgun act cane.

I don't think that's a samurai sword. It looks like a cutlass. See the hilt.

And i doubt it's a staff because it isn't held like any staff i've seen in the soul series unless it's a new weapon/holding animation.
 
I know earlier I said something about wanting another dark medieval game from Miyazaki, but if this is pirate themed, that's the one thing that'd be even better. :O
 
WTF, 56 pages?! I'm late apparently.

Anyway, this looks absolutely amazing! I really hope it's real, it definitely looks like it is. It looks like a more modern version of the Souls games. The leaker said there were shotguns? I wonder how prominent firearms will be in this game.

Sony knew that dropping this unannounced at E3 would obliterate gaf servers so after a few negotiations with EvilLore they decided to slowly leak us the info bit by bit. Think of it like applying lube before going down on a big, fat, black c
hocolate cake
 
I'm very excited by this but it's such a shame that Sony always ends up with pre E3 leaks.
This would've been an amazing E3 surprise reveal :-(


Hopefully this is a leak of a earlier version and what they end up showing is even better. But your right, this would have been a nuclear bomb dropped at E3.

When I was looking at this image on my low-brightness laptop at school earlier today, I thought this creature was a dinosaur.

It should have been a dinosaur.

My first thought was dinosaur. I got so hyped up only to have my friend say "that's a dog."

....D: it should have been a dinosaur.

Viral marketing creates hype. Sony did hype this week a bit. Very well might be a controlled leak.

Leaking something that show nothing but implies everything is a good way end the week of news. They got my attention.

There's something to be said for releasing poor quality images to lower expectations of the visuals, so the real game would impression more. Still, I can't imagine Sony leaked it. This would have been a mighty curb-stomp to end their conference.
 
Gunblade FF8 style, I know it's jumping the gun but if it is true, I hope it's a full £50 experience and not the f2p route like Deep Down.

Leaks are still good, As if anything it will make us watch the Sony conference with even more baited breath.
 
there's a cutlass
and those zombies are undead creatures cursed to live forever
and gold coins on the ground

pirates of the Caribbean souls game
 
Yeah looking a little closer, there are definitely some pirate looking details in the screens. Not sure what to make of this anymore. But still, pirate fantasy-horror with your character going around slaying beasts sounds good. Or it could just be the souls of pirates and you're a character from the 18th-19th century. *shrug*
 
My only hope is that it's not quite so brutal as Dark Souls felt to me. Challenging like Demon's Souls, but with slightly less "Oh you moved there, now you are dead." than Dark Souls.

Why can't you just be honest? you quickly jumped to a false conclusion, perhaps thought it looked reminiscent of something else and claimed it in error. Okay, easy mistake to make and take back.

Now sure why you're all pouty about it now. Own up.

I am being honest. No need to be rood.
