Why is that fag holding a torch? It's not even dark and it clearly isn't being used for warmth.

Remember when everyone said that Sekiro would be identical to Nioh? And then people actually played the game.
Execution is infinitely more important than concept.

God of war 4 sucks ass. God of war ascension was peak.
Zachary Bailey

Fuck off

Time for a better take with good gameplay then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

My only concern is From has done Japanese centric themed games and done them very well. Sekiro felt just wholly Japanese in it's characters, themes, historicy etc. It didn't feel like a Japanese themed game, it was a Japanese game. With the exception being Dark Souls 2 which just felt and looked generic, like it was made by a separate developer trying to imitate Dark Souls 1 (fuckin B-Team). I think it plays well into From being a Japanese developer so they are very well in tune with Japanese mythology. Dark Souls 1/3 and Bloodborne played well into these strengths as, even though it was more in tune with dark European elements, Japan still has a fascination with medieval Europe as well as Lovecraftian horror so it didn't stray far away from their strenghts.
So this I just don't know if they'd be able to do a Norse themed game well. There's not really much overlap between Norse and Japanese elements. I'm totally open to being surprised and I also think From is talented enough to be able to pull it off. But I'll reserve that judgement for when I see more.

Logan Garcia
Wasn't there a game about a viking girl just before that and wasn't there a small focus on Norse mythology in dark souls 2 and in dark souls 3?

In this thread we list things that made Sekiro Shadow Die Twice the best FromSoftware game, I'll start
>Takes place in Feudal Japan and has a mythological spin on it which is LIGHT-YEARS ahead of le dark medieval fantasy or victorian era crap
>A great straightforward story/plot that is not purposefully mysterious
>Easily a 40-60 hour experience and beats out Dark Souls 3 and Bloodborne in length but doesn't overstay its welcome like Dark Souls 1/2
>An interesting cast of characters with personality, motivations, information/exposition and aren't just purely loved because of their nostalgia like Solaire or Eileen
>For once a simple tutorial that isn't noneexistant but isn't necessarily forced down the player's throat
>The soundtrack is traditional Japanese music and not the same old boring le ebin orchestral trash we've been getting since Demon Souls
>Stealth mechanics are now an optimal way to bypass enemy encounters and to get death blows on larger/stronger enemies and even bosses
>Grappling mechanic that essentially makes Sekiro extremely mobile while also playing into exploration and bossfights
>Deflection and posture mechanic heavily rewarding the player with damage and take downs but also relies on timing, patience and most importantly skill
>Prosthetic shinobi arm is the secondary weapon with several different type of tools that can be upgraded and fills that lack of weapon void
>3 Ninjutsu techniques that are basically special abilities for aggressive, passive and defensive playstyles
>Skills/Combat Arts that add an entirely new layer of sword fighting to combat
>A progression system that doesn't encourage overleveling
>HitBoxes are finally perfected unlike the previous games where literal shockwaves would kill you
>Bosses are the best in Soulsborne and have unique designs, fighting styles and arenas
>>No awful tacked on multiplayer that completely ruins the balance, sekiro requires actual skill

George should stop wasting his time "consulting" a game company who already knows how to get shit done and instead continue working on Winds of Winter

Go ahead, ask me how I know you think vikings had horns on their helmets.

>article sites Games Radar and Gematsu as the source of the Norse and Great Rune name
>Games Radar sites Gematsu as the source for the Norse and Great Rune name
>Gematsu says only the codename GR and mentions no Norse myth at all
So did games journalists just see some people posting random stuff about wanting From and Norse games on the day GRRM confirmed he was working with them and get confused?
Aaron Mitchell
As much as I dislike that fat fuck GRRM, even he can come up with a better story than boi of soi
Jaxon Reyes
Armored Core Six when
Gavin Flores
I WISH Banner Saga was as big as you were claiming.
Jayden Hernandez
I wasn't really claiming it was gigantic (it's biggest claim to fame is the stuff with King a few years back) but it is indeed a video game based on Norse mythology.
Kevin Evans
>the stuff with King a few years back
What stuff?
Kevin Anderson
Dispute over the use of the word "saga".
Ryder Barnes
Norse is a shit theme wish the gap never ended.
Michael Williams
Fuck are they working together for anyway?
They're going to have him write like 5 lines of obscure text on some items and they'll call it done with the lore.
