I hope this game differentiates itself enough from the Souls series.
From PS blog for those too lazy to click it in the OP
This is a joke right?
Bloodborne is the cover story of this week's Famitsu, and there's an interview with Miyazaki in it as well. Here are some details reported by a Japanese blog who got the magazine early.
- Spring 2015 release window
- They started work on this right after finishing Artorias of the Abyss, planning it for Sony's new hardware
- The world and story is completely new, and the setting takes full advantage of the PS4's capabilities
- The expected spec for the game is 30fps at 1080p
- The keywords for the game is "blood" and "beast"
- There will be melee and long range weapons (guns) this time
- Character customization is confirmed
- There will be no map display in the game
- He wants combat to not just focus on action but also the strategic element
- The combat in the game is designed to feel like a life or death struggle
- There will be online elements of some sort, and it will involve players "discovering" together
Edit: In case anyone missed it earlier, here's the official game blurb from Sony: http://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/bloodborne-ps4
I don't get why they didn't just continue the "Souls" naming trend.
It's not a Souls game.I don't get why they didn't just continue the "Souls" naming trend.

I would imagine that Sony feels that Dark Souls has taken up that moniker to such a degree that it's not worth making that link anymore.I don't get why they didn't just continue the "Souls" naming trend.

I don't know why people care for character creation. They'll look like abominations in this game anywaysand thats before you "die" and look even worse.
Loving this. Souls was only fun for me playing with friends. Watching your friends get insta-gibbed or mis-time a jump or just plainly get fucked over by a mob provided me with some of the greatest gaming memories of all time.
That sounds good, I wanted a 4 player co op game. Just wish it was set in medieval Japan though.
Holy shit.
I need this issue so bad.
EDIT - (2014 06/26) That's the issue, correct? I'm about to place an order. I'm expecting artwork/images in it, that would look great in my Souls collection.

Well this sounds horrible to me.
The least enjoyable part of a Souls is when someone's around.It becomes a shallow experience.
Also I like playing at my own pace.Co-op doesn't allow that.
Is the Enlish speaking press getting some info too soon?
Yup. There will be a one hour long press briefing today on Bloodborne at E3.

Fantastic. I hope we get to see the Project Beast footage in it.Yup. There will be a one hour long press briefing today on Bloodborne at E3.
To avoid confusion with the other Souls games like Dark Souls?
And it's not a Souls game.

It was already posted in the previous thread. The date is a placeholder, and the game only has a "Spring 2015" release window so far. Don't get too excited.
Souls could often become shallow in co-op because it was primarily balanced as a single player game. Summoning help was a temporary trump card, and relatively little of the game was designed to compensate for it.
That won't necessarily be the case for Bloodborne. At the very least, I'm expecting some areas and enemies to change when you have multiple players, in addition to interesting PvP stuff like the Old Monk, Gravelording, Rat Covenant, bells in Dark Souls II, etc. Hell, maybe we'll get asynchronous co-op as well.
Seems like only yesterday people were shouting me down for saying there wouldn't be a Demon's Souls 2. I guess no one is arguing that anymore?
