How old is this interview? I would've thought Project 3 was Deracine, and they've moved onto a Project 4 (with Project 2 being Sekiro and Project 1 still in the works).

Miyazaki: Two unannounced games in the works, From Software-esque
- Thread starter Kenzodielocke
- Start date
It's like a day old and Gematsu layed it out like this
I feel like sekiro is the dark fantasy arpg. After all, it fits the tagline of being similar but different. Armored core feels like it could use a reboot after the last game. But the real mystery is the weird new IP. Someone said it was Deracine but if that's the case what's the 3rd big game?

Oh yeah i remember that rumour. That setting sounds awesome.
Seriously??? Sekiro looks like every other souls game aside from setting...
Not really, they have made it clear that Sekiro is trying to be something different than souls. Sekiro is vastly different in it's core by not having any type of online component, no character customization (fixed protagonist) and most importantly no stat leveling which is a huge role playing game element. When they say similar to Souls I am assuming it will at least be a role playing game. Sekiro has more stuff in common with something like Tenchu or Ninja Blade than Souls. Sure you have some of the fragmented story telling from the world and items but resurrection after your dead? I mean common, it goes against what the whole souls formula is about. The risk reward aspect of loosing souls and progression if your not careful.

I've tried to like other From Software games but I just really can't get into them... Ninja Blade was okay and maybe some others are worth trying but everyone can't deny what they really excel at.
Dark Souls, Bloodborne, and Demon's Souls are some best designed games I've ever played.

Sekiro took out nearly all diversity, variation, and player agency in their character. It's not an rpg. It's closer to From's take on a Zelda than a proper rpg.
I don't see how Sekiro is Souls style game. It shares some mechanics like the way the combat works and the camera but aside from that it is a character action game mixed with Tenchu.
I think people oversell how much the stats/gear numbers etc actually matter in the souls games, I feel realistically in the end almost everyone just falls into a handful of playstyles that really aren't that different from just giving the player a bunch of different unique weapons with balanced stats.
Character creation and build variety are the only reason Dark Souls is worth anything to me
I don't want to play a guy who looks like every damn Samurai character under the sun
Forcing a main character whilst taking out any real differentiation ruins the experience for me
Is it out of the question that people are PC gamers and love Miyazaki's work? Exclusives suck.
Cookies and Cream (aka Kuro Kuro Mix) has a single player sequel on DS! It's not great. I'm totally here for a proper sequel! Still the best local co-op game.
IIRC some of the Demons Souls staff were Cookies and Cream staff members.
I just want another Soulsborne-like game, but with a different setting. Sekiro doesn't look like my cup of tea.
Fromsoft has complete creative control over their works. Acti is just providing overseas publishing and some resources.
I know, but then I remembered about Blizzard and got bitter.
Fuck yes.
Oh and did I say fuck yes? If not,then Im saying it. Fuck yes
Bloodborne 2 and spiritual successor to Dark Souls is the answer

Not really. Sekiro has different combat mechanics, new grappling hook traversal and stealth takedowns, a different respawn mechanic, a set character, no grinding and no MP. Playing it feels very different.
Would be so in.
Hopefully Biomega (and Aposimz once it's further in) gets an anime eventually like Sidonia and Blame have.
One game might be a new Armored Core game. From Software Marketing Manager Yasunori Ogura tweeted a "happy new year" message within an armored core theme.
