Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice isn't really a Souls Game
Added 2018-06-17 07:37:48 +0000 UTCGuys..Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice isn't really a Souls Game...
..and that's okay!
It retains a ton of identity from Souls, and is abandoning some concepts in order to innovate in other areas. That's why i'm excited.
Shortly after our first video, a ton of new info came out - and the discussion around this info definitely warrants a discussion.
Enjoy! Can't wait to read all the comments on this one - I bet there are a ton of other angles I haven't considered.

As an aside, they never quite got the hang of making a powerful character customizer that wasn't a pain in the ass to use. They still used that old FaceGen technology all the way through. Dark Souls 3 in particular had a weird face set as a base that made it nearly impossible to make something that really looked good.

2018-06-17 17:53:59 +0000 UTCIf jumping and movement are going to be more important now, does that mean they're finally going to fix the awful platforming of Dark Souls? Is there a dedicated jump button now?

2018-06-17 13:40:39 +0000 UTCThe fact that we won't make our own character(with no character customization) is really interesting for me, since it's somehow the most important difference between Sekiro and Soulsborne imo. I think with making our own character the interaction between the player and the world of the game was really unique in Soulsborne, and that unique interaction that I felt between me and the game was one of the best things in Miyazaki's games for me. So if he can make/keep this special interaction in Sekiro even with a huge difference like no character customization, I'll be really satisfied with the game. :D Really excited to see what he wants to do with all these changes.
