Here's a little more info about the "morality system." Edge asks about a creepy looking enemy, and the director says he's an undead who executes those who commit evil deeds. Edge asks if there's a morality system, the director says yeah, if you're unlucky enough you might meet him.
I wonder if it's like Miyazaki's idea about roaming dark knights, but in this case it's a sort of covenant character who hunts those who break/hurt covenants. Like an offline equivalent of the Darkmoon Blades. But that's probably expecting too much.
This new guy needs to get the fuck out. IMMEDIATELY. My Hayashi/Toriyama senses are tingling.
One path? Forced storyline? Pointless love interest? Yeah I repeat, get the fuck out.
He's also talking about adding vehicles to the game, not because it would complement Dark Souls' design but because he wants to keep trying/adding new things.
I'm usually pretty optimistic about these kind of things, but this guy sounds like a fool. It reeks of someone without a vision throwing a bunch of things at a wall and hoping some of it sticks.
