Well, I was skeptical up until now: Elden Ring, a game made by From Software in collaboration with A Song of Ice and Fire writer George R. R. Martin, has been announced for the PS 4, X Box One, Switch and PC.

There's no release date and only a pretty vague trailer, but considering the creative forces in play we can certainly guess a lot of what it'll be about.

I don’t know why I haven’t thought of this sooner.

[up]I think we should probably wait until we have a more concrete idea of what the game'll be about.

The requirement now is that and a concrete release date.

New interview with Miyazaki on IGN. Horse riding and mounted combat are confirmed to be in, as is character creation. Also confirmed that Martin only wrote the mythology while Miyazaki crafted the main story. So far it sounds like this will be Dark Souls: Breath of the Wild and I am HERE for it.

There's a bunch of new "leaked" rumours about mechanics and the release date. If the rumours hold true, then Sekiro can probably be considered the prototype for this new generation of the genre.

I hope it's better implemented than Sekiro, though. I really couldn't get into it and it's a shame; it'll be worse if I can't get into Elden Ring too because of it.

It's been fun.

In what way, that players rely more on tools and are faster but more fragile?

Perfectly fine with me, as Sekiro is probably my now favorite game form the studio.

[up][up] Apparently detachable arms are once again playing a role; your character's arms are falling apart (presumable petrifying, if the trailer is any indication) and need to be replaced with perishable limbs taken from enemies, or durable but less powerful prostheses.

@Librarian: More being forced into one playstyle that's very parry-heavy. I have issues with reading parry windows in games, and Sekiro in particular didn't really offer any feedback to get better at it beyond "well, you got it wrong, spend 20 minutes getting back there so you can guess again". So I'm hoping Elden Ring offers more freedom on that front.

It's been fun.

...I'm confused. Is this actual gameplay, or just a prank?
