The Next Major FromSoftware Game, What Miyazaki Tells Us 

What kind of game do you want FromSoftware to make? 👇

Pirate Souls would be incredible, especially considering how original and unique the WorldBuilding and lore the soulsborne games have been.

An ancient Egyptian/Sumerian theme would be tight, been hinted towards a couple times, most recently in ER with the scarab beetles, Burial watchdogs etc and obviously Loran from Bloodborne’s lore, a land “devoured by sands long ago”.

I think if the DLC is set in a dream/spirit world with Miquella, we may get a glimpse of these more abstract fantasy ideas Miyazaki was talking about. I mean, what could be better to use abstract imagery than a world that isn't bound by "real life" logic such as a dream or the spirit world? Also, I really love how Miyazaki confirmed that the success of Elden Ring won't shape their future games, not because I don't like it, it's my second favorite game after Sekiro, but because it shows how much respect they have for their own artistic vision.

Pirate Souls would be dope. Imagine a kraken boss or a monster shark

Pirate souls sounds so sick lol But I don’t think FS has ever done interactions with water all that well (outside of Sekiro, where you can swim). That’d be so awesome.

I love speculating about From Software upcoming titles, they are one of the few companies that can really surprise us.

An Aztec/Mesoamerican spiritual successor to Bloodborne would be incredible. Either way I hope their next game isn't open world

Hello Kitty Gokart Adventures! I got a good feeling about this...

It’s time they iterate on Bloodborne’s chalice dungeons. If they fully fleshed that out into a full game with modern procedural generation tech, I could see the Tarkov idea placed into it, where the player is dropped into an ever changing map, fight against NPCs and players to escape. No two play throughs the same. I’m sure FS would add their own twists.

Bro, you’re one of the best RU-vid channels out there I have been watching all your videos for at least 7 months straight and haven’t commented once. So I just wanted to say we all appreciate your hard work and your great channel!

Vampires Souls. Let it all take place in a massive castle with all its secrets. I always loved the castle parts in the Souls games. Like Anor Londo in Dark Souls and Cainhurst in Bloodborne and would love to see a game that is just that. Combat-wise I would love te see the trick-weapons style from Bloodborne, but maybe that you can make your own by combining two weapons together creating all kinds of different and unique movesets. And being able to name them would also be sweet, that way the weapon becomes more your own.

Bloodborne with a nautical setting is such a good idea in my opinion. Encountering Dagon-like beings, fighting on moving ships, underwater levels … I’d like to dream about such a game.

Yes ,sir, I agree a Pirate theme may be coming! I want a full-blown H.P. LoveCraft deep in depth style. You may say that's been done, aka BloodBorne. I honestly just really want a BB2 😅 that is by far my personal #1 favorite. I absolutely love the Architecture, H.P.L inspired gore cosmic themes, and old school Gothic London attire.

You're also forgetting the VR game Fromsoft made; where a lot of hints were placed in about a south american style mythos. It would be fascinating if they combined pirate and South American mythos together making a conquistador/fountain of youth style game.

A setting I would like Miyazaki and the talent behind fromsoft do, is something with dark and twisted themes of faith. Think the grotesque creatures found in DS and really emphasize that in the gameplay. Go to fantastical and medieval representations of hell and heaven but as it's own fromsoft universe with twist and turns like maybe elements of a void with eldritch creatures. It would also be cool to have something like covenants where you can align with the different parallel realms to get specific types of magic and gear themed around those landscapes. Royal armor themed around Angel's and Demon's would be really cool and they could expand the gear and weapons to be more like bloodborne and perhaps some armor sets let you glide or other unique abilities based on where you got them. Void armor that can devour things and evolve being another example. I'd also like to see them expand one the changing physical aspects like the dragon and frenzied flame eyes to be more like the fable series. In those series your character would take on certain aspects over time depending on your morality or the things you did. If done right, as fromsoft tends to do, it would really add an extra dimension to character growth and immersion.

I think it's inevitable that a space themed game is coming someday. Maybe in Elden Ring 2 sense the first game had a lot of references to the cosmos, stars and the moon.

Sci-fi souls where they go all in on the lovecraft again but in space. I think it would go well with what Miyazaki has said about doing more surreal stuff

More than just Pirate Souls, I think a game set fully or mostly underwater like Subnautica is coming at some point. Miyazaki has an obsession with bodies of water, lakes, swamps, etc. Thematically, water and large bodies of water have played important roles in every fantasy game they've released, to the point that DS3 had a faction with a religion over the coming of the deep sea. Bloodborne eventually became about the sea. Sekiro successfully incorporated underwater fights and movement and involved the fountainhead waters and carp. Elden Ring was supposedly going to have more to do with sea travel as well. Also, the 8 way control format from Armored Core would be really suitable for an action game set in the water without slowing the pace. Ecco the Dolphin is a great example of this, since it's Eldritch/Aliens in the ocean, the levels are dark and mazelike, outside of the main character being a dolphin it already reads like a Fromsoft game.

I can definitely see one avenue that combines a lot of things you spoke about here Pirate Souls could potentially be something where your missions or quests or adventures revolve around setting sail to go find treasure, but with a Tarkov-esque extraction kind of system. Maybe you start off on mainland, and you can visit certain places, maybe the local Inn/Tavern and find other players to set sail with, you could gear up and store things on your ship and then set sail to discover an island or something, and if you die on the way you lose everything you had with you (maybe except for your ship because that would just be too brutal I think). But if you manage to get back to mainland safely you get to keep whatever you "extracted" with. I'm just imagining you and a buddy (or maybe a stranger you met at the tavern) coming back loaded up with treasure and you get ambushed by an AI ghostship, or another Player or even large scale enemies like a megalodon or a kraken? That would be absolutely mental, and I'd gladly buy that game hahaha EDIT: I actually just remembered a completely organic moment when I was playing Elden Ring analysing the map, and I noticed in the top right corner there was a massive whirlpool along with some random ships. My first thought, having started off with DS2 was "Wow I wonder if that has anything to do with the massive abyssal whirlpool from the opening cutscene in Dark Souls 2?". I posted on Reddit asking for other people's thoughts and they said it was just a cosmetic thing on the map, not an area you can get to. Now it's got me thinking though, could that partially be something they want to expand on in a future game?

A survival, and exploration game... that takes place in a land of gods and kami and yokai and other beings. Where instead of straight up combat you get much more special mechanics (wear blinds or turn camera away from a medusa to avoid getting petrified status, wear a heavy helm that blocks sound or trigger a cover ears emote to avoid a sirens call or screach, faeries that will take your stuff and prank you but don't fight back...that won't end well, that wall yokai that shows up and is just an out of place wall you can't get past sometimes in areas... World that's full of things like that, that randomly pop up or inhabit certain areas. If they do their fickle fancies in most games it's annoying and frustrating, but in a limited duration multiplayer map, it's the roll of the dice and makes for more varied/interesting stories/experiences. So a mixed survival map with crazy varied environmental things going on, rather than the normal straight up hostile zombies or just fighting other players. Objective might be cooperative for some. Like half the players need to work together to collect some blessings of essences to calm a god at some central temple, and the other half are cultists or people working to stop them and interfere with them. But can't fight outright too much, or some local kami in some areas might intervene and help protect the players looking to calm things, while maybe some Oni or such that like fighting might help the cultist players in other areas, making certain regions safer for one side or the other, but not the point you can't go into these other areas, and each party must go into some of the others areas for their own objective. Or rather than a good/bad split, players all just pick their own kami/dieties they want to support. As the world collides like in DS3, different lands are pulled together to one point so you have gods or beings from different cultures or lands all coming into conflict in one area, and players each just pick the being they want to support in this conflict and work to help them achieve their own goal (be it combat victory over others, just isolating their own pocket of land, or playing tricks on the other gods, so much variety from all the worlds legends of being and their personalities). Ya, that's my wacky idea combining that all together. It would be a pretty interesting and unique game experience that a good number of people would like, but not mainstream enough that it would fit with a small and interesting game he just makes himself with a focused team. Kind of like Deracine, a good interesting one that isn't going to get mainstream, though would have broader audience than that still.

If it wasn’t for fromsoft I wouldn’t have any reason to keep gaming. These games are the best. Also added Sekiro to my completed games this week and loved every second of it.

I’d like to see a game based around the themes of the eternal cities and ancestral spirit. It seems like it fits the “fantasy” setting. There is a fair bit of it in Elden Ring already but imagine a full on game exploring areas like those.

omgggg Pirate Souls might just be the one thing that could top Bloodborne for me. And those wrecked ships all around the shores of the Lands Between sure kept me wondering what that was all about. Other possibilities I ve had in mind was Elemer of the Briar and Eochaid, the land he came from. The psychokinetic abilities he uses on the sword sure could make for interesting mechanics! As for the kind of integrated multiplayer style, Death Stranding reminded me a lot of the Souls games with the way that things that other players were doing would have an effect on your game world, like the construction of the highway, ropes and ladders and emoji signs being left around where ppl put them, that sort of thing. I really liked that, and it's a good example of the potential of this sort of thing.

Pirate or sci-fi game by Miyazaki would be my highest requests Or another Victorian style game that could be a spiritual successor to Bloodborne, kind of like how Dark Souls was the spiritual successor to Demon's Souls

It's incredible how From made a game, that one year later, even though I know all the questlines and explored everything, I still feel the mystery of the universe of this game, when playing it. The world feels living and breathing, and it's own thing. The wildlife of Elden Ring feels like they are doing their own thing, just living there, not are some kind of background thing for player. Whatever the game is that they do next, I hope they build more on that aspect, that we are just a tiny thing in the game world they build.

Can you post links to the articles for stuff like these the one on creating worlds seems really interesting!

The fact we have a golden order. There is a faction that uses copper or bronze as a medium. I can see a full on alchemical analogy like warfare type shattering mmosoulslike lol idk.

The stuff with the cosmos in Elden Ring and the Great Ones in Bloodborne make me think a scifi game would really work.

Wasn't there a rumor about a new Dark Souls game currently in development that takes place in an Age Of The Deep? Set like 5000 years after Dark Souls 3 or something and is being directed by Tanimura (or another FS dev that has been given essentially full directorial reign over the game).

The game i'd love to have the most is Sekiro 2, with open world.

I want a game taking the concept of the painted world and do it with books at a massive library. You go into fairy tales, horror stories, famous books like the pagemaster movie. But with a dark adult Miyazaki twist to each one. I think this could give from software the ability to experiment with multiple themes and genres without it being multiple separate games.

There was a leak a few months ago saying that the new Fromsoft game would be set both on land and at the bottom of the ocean.

PirateSouls seems like a probable next inspiration for Fromsoftware if you consider lore about the Deep in DS3, the aesthetic of the fishing hamlet in BB, the addition of swimming in Sekiro, and the relationship between water and death in Elden Ring. It's clear somebody on the creative team there wants to explore those themes in an island hopping, seafaring adventure! Considering Miyazaki's focus on the abstract and all the symbolism in Elden Ring's lore, other probable inspirations could be a mythology based adventure or an adventure that delves deeper into the Eldritch horror themes of Bloodborne. Whatever they decide to do, glad the multiplayer aspect is in their mind. the Invasion/Co-op system the souls games introduced is amazing.

The thing about the deep sea. In aldrich`s dream. Always interested me. And would be very fascinating. I see lot of comments about pirate souls and thats a great idea. Imagine what deep lore they could do with all the sea myths and legends from the sailors back in the day. Hopefully something with HP Lovecraft inspiration. But also other things

Something I would like to see is a roguelite souls game from FS. They have dabbled in common tropes like procedural generation in Bloodborne and I just think they could create something really special from the genre.

If we consider that info about From Soft always including a character or some part of the world that doesn’t seem to belong still holds true, I’d say you’re completely spot on with pirate souls. Suppose random elements on the map count as clues to the next game. Then those pirate ships on the elden ring map when there are no npcs, cosmetics, or weapons that relate to a pirate at all stand out to me. There’s evidence and it sounds like a great idea. I hope that’s the next game too

I’m surprised you didn’t mention the giant pirate ship in Elden ring as a possible hint to the next game

Personally I would like to see a new Tenchu game originally Sekiro started out being a new Tenchu reboot but became its own beast after awhile

Honestly, I think we need a fighting game comprised of major characters from all of Fromsofts major titles, just imagine a 2d fighter where you can play as the Wolf from Sekiro fighting Gwyn, or a Armored Core, or Rennala, or tag team fights Lord of Cinder and Gascoigne vs Radahn, and Solair

Kinda insane to realease a first story DLC two years after the main game. That' not something any major publisher would do. Even more insane is that there is no doubt it would still sell like crazy

I fear for From's future: now that they've seen the money, i doubt shareholders/higher-ups/owners will let Miyazaki do his craft as up until now... 😬

love your videos but it'd be awesome if you could add links to articles you mentioned, i can't for my life find the interview with the analog people. looks machine translated so it's pretty hard to look up

I agree with stuff centered around the ocean, if its a bloodborne sequel then its prob going the cthulu route. But something new would be nice. Another i would like a deep dive in that could be a nice concept is the story behind DS3's wolnir with the desert

did a little research on yamamura and chester, they are both in the first dlcs. I hope we can see a new npc in shadow of the erdtree dlc 👀

I think something that could happen, that harkens back to the second King’s Field game is to throw science fiction elements abruptly into a fantasy world. One of the biggest influences on the Souls series is The Book of the New Sun by Gene Wolfe, and it explores a lot of ideas on how technology is recontextualized as magic the farther it’s removed from its own era.

I would love from software to come up with a Star Wars style sci-fi, Elden ring, complete with space, magic, blaster rifles, and technological suits of armor where you can customize your ship to get from planet to planet with the potential of being invaded per ship to ship, combat not to mention the type of crazy space monsters they can make for your ship to have to fight. In other words, picture a star destroyer sized astel while you’re in your little star, fighter or gunship or whatever. Hell it could even take place in Elden ring 1000 years after the setting of the game per Ronnie’s quest line.

Bloodborne 2 would have a lot of reference to the sea because of how the true ending is;o not only that I think it would have to follow up on that but a lot of undiscovered abilities considering you become a baby squid god if you beat it with the ending would be coo

I just hope this means the next game will have good connection for pvp

Man a Deep Sea game would be awesome. My first FS game was Bloodborne and got into it when I'm my Lovecraftian phaseeven tho I had a lot of bad assumptions about the gameplay. One thing I love about these games is the outter intrusions (Great Ones in Bloodborne, Divine Dragon and centipedes in Sekiro, all the Gods wanting the Lands Between in Elden Ring) and even tho I got some serious thalassophobia I crave what lies underwater and across the seas. The possibilities of what FromSoft would do with such is amazing.

I have been saying since I ds3 that I want to see a large scale multiplayer souls like. Where you build you character like you would any from game, but then you can use it for large scale siege, and objective type game modes a la chivalry 2.

Fromsoft sent author and fan Brandon Sanderson a sword with a message saying they hope to work together. I hope with all my heart that they do at some point. Sanderson is known for his world building so adding a darksouls layer to that sounds amazing!!❤❤

Mayan or Aztec time period would be interesting. Quetzaquatl a la Fromsoft would be a thing to behold.

I’m really glad that they’re leaning into the abstract aspect for next game since most AAA game worlds are so straightforward you don’t think about the world after an hour of playing the game. With the abstract angle they could make a really unique or surreal game that won’t be limited by conventional means. As cool a pirate souls game would be, I hope they make a game world that’s unrecognizable by theme.

That Maya/Aztec setting for blood bone that was hinted in deracine and started some speculation about it being a bloodborne spiritual sequel.

Pirate Souls just made me envision FromSoft doing a high fantasy version of Assassin's Creed Black Flag and it is now my most anticipated game

I would LOVE a science-fantasy setting where mankind is dying out, but the remnants posses immortality tech that stores memories and several body types in the noise of quantum fields. Nanite clouds reassemble the patterns from local matter into a new body from local matter upon death. The game would be a pilgrimage through the dead planetary colonies of mankind in search of a signal from non-human intelligence. You would jump from gate to gate, each time arriving at a new planet in search of a gate that moves you closer to the source of the signal. Immortal pseudo-humans, changed to adapt to each planet or corrupted by alien tech, would serve as enemies. Hostile environments, aliens and fauna would round out the dangers. I would also love to see FromSoft’s interpretation of light-sabers, gravity maces, positron cannons and matter re-arrangers (spells). But I wonder if others would like this genre…

Elden ring 2 would be crazy

Well Farum Azula is the most "abstract" thing i can think of in elden Ring. Having an entire game set on a ploating, literally broken land, where time bends, not partially like in dark souls, but completly, could work for the basis of a game that then goes abstract with heavy multiplayer. But its usually the dlc where we get the next games ideas.

Could anyone link to the roundtable interview? I wasn't able to find it on Google unfortunately

Middle Eastern and Mongolian Mythos would also be a fantastic abstraction to build a world off of too.

Ok, imagine a special game mode or something for Elden ring that would be essentially an extraction game. That sounds like it could be rad. It’s got the items, player+creature combat systems, and places to sneak around in. Could be cool.

my mind is blown that Miyazaki even knows about Tarkov, so cool. I love EFT as a hardcore shooter and it'll be very interesting to see what they might pull from that

what I think of tarkov, that you didn't mention is, that when you die on the map, you'll lose you load out and I think he will add kind of that to the future multiplayer title

I'd also put Valve in that list of "Studios that does masterpiece after masterpiece" if it didn't take'em ten years between releases...

I like the MP aspect especially in ER but my main focus especially first play thought has always been their single player experience.

I'd like to see something in the Mayan/ Aztec type setting with pyramids and a jungle type setting. Lots of crazy warrior type bosses and enemies could be pulled from that back ground not to mention beast from their folklore. They could do a lot of the story and lore with pottery and wall paintings/ cave paintings. Customized paint on the create a characters face and body and a some really cool costume designs as well.

You’re the man! Love your channel boiiii

A dead atlantis or just a sunken kingdom in general would be cool to see kinda blend it from multiple from around the world, but in the same maze-like style as dark souls. Space would be cool, but my brain keeps jumping to making sure it doesn't be like metroid or dead space.

Holyshiet never thought of Dark Piracy before, so hyped to imagine that from the hands of FromSoft in a possible future

Love the underwater combat and movement in Sekiro. I think it'd be interesting to see Fromsoft expand on that. Something like that in a space fantasy setting would be pretty interesting IMHO.

i reckon some fantasy story in space. could even be a space pirate story and instead of horse mount we have a swordfish mount or even 2

my ideal fromsoftware game would be set in a megastructure / blame inspired setting

Im so happy that ive only recently got into these games. Ive only done DS 1 and 2 so far and im currently playing sekiro. Absolutly fantastic games that I cant believe I didnt get into sooner. The reason I'm happy about only starting to play them is the amount of choice I have. I can finish one game and move onto the next without waiting for a release time. I hate waiting for games to release. Im not known for my patience 😂. Ive got DS 3 and countless others installed and ready for after sekiro. Saving eldon ring till last unless I get told thats a bad idea for whatever reason.

i believe that there should be a part in elden ring where you view the greater will and the cosmic beings which would be the outer gods that rival eachother to become the elden lord through the tarnished, and this is where covenants come in where you collect metals like in DS3 and get rewards.

Sci-fi is one I'd love to see. Lovecraft and space go hand in hand and therefore provides a new means to develop on a similar works to bloodborne that's not bound under the old licence with sony and a singular platform. Probably the freshest departure form their fantasy roots. Idk, I'm just interested to see their take on sci-fi, ya know?

I honestly think there's a lot of potential to do a sort of cosmic horror oriented Souls game, taking elements from BloodBorne and EldenRing (like the Astel boss fight). Or honestly just a sort of horror oriented Action RPG would be a rather interesting idea to follow, though I can't say there are many things hinting to this one in the past games, aside from corner jumpscares, lol.

I'd be way into a viking-themed Souls type game which takes Elden Ring's crafting mechanics even further. The idea of a survival-focused FromSoft game where you explore some unfamiliar continent and have to gather and craft your own supplies could be amazing.

I know the deep sea was mentioned in the fishing hamlet in Bloodborne, and Aldrich’s dreams in Dark Souls III, but where/when was it mentioned in DS1?

Holy crap man, pirate setting is the EXACT thing I've wanted for the longest time. Those One Piece mods in elden ring really inspired this I think, but every time I've thought about the next souls game setting pirates is what I want the most. Really, I haven't played very many pirate related games and idk I know they could make that type of setting really atmospheric.

A FromSoft game with the story/concept of the old Bungie game Myth The Fallen Lords where the hero of one age is resurrected into the villain of the next age. New game plus changes the world depending on how you played, and the main boss will be your previous character using your build and tactics. If you used summons it will use summons, ect.. Would be similar to Dragons Dogma a bit too.

That Pirate souls idea is fucking awesome

Any type of extraction game made by fromsoft would be a hit whether it’s dark n darker style or more modern like tarkov

Idea: The spirit dear summons ghost animals, what if they someoned players? Additionally, this is one of the first titles with that sort of indigenous fantasy element, maybe they will expand on that.

Anyone wanting a pirate souls i recommend going back and watching the first 3 pirates of the carribean movies rewatching those as an adult was a trip and it has so much creepy cool shit that could be incorporated into a soulsgame, cant think of a better setting.

Now that you mention a pirate souls, looking at the memory of grace in ER it looks like the light bouncing off the ocean surface....

the world will definitely be metaphorical, like bloodborne, the atmosphere would be tower of latria like, the combat would take a big hit, going back into souls era but using entirely different mechanics and the lore would be spread out into two different playthroughs, as, finally, ng+ would unlock different paths/endings. I personally would LOVE deep ocean/ chthullu but with "astel" creatures and sunken 'stars' and alien themes, complementing the metaphor of course. Also, moonlight greatsword somewhere, somehow.

I came at "anual from software releases"

Abstract fantasy note really got me hyped. I love abstract fantasy and it is rarels seen in games nowdays so that could be very interesting. Meaybe it will be like Hylics 2 or Persona.

This guy went on stage to accept his second GOTY and used the little time he had to state he'll be making even better games than ER lol I still find the Escape from Tarkov comment very curious though. I initially thought of a new Soulsborne with deepened multiplayer mechanics, maybe with some the ideas already showing up in the ER expansion. But, again, I wouldn't think to guess what From is thinking going forward.

I'm half joking but an Extraction Based Armored Core game wouldn't seem too weird at all to be honest. What's weirder is the idea of FS doing something that seems multiplayer reliant rather than it being supplementary to the game if Escape From Tarkov inspirations ran really deep. But what would be the middle ground? Players taking opposing missions could end up battling each other and taking parts from defeated opponents? Players hired for the same job working together? Edit: Also Pirate Souls sounds lit and it doesn't have to be limited to just the typical pirates. You could throw so much there. I personally want to see something like Shadow Tower though where it's more of an intrusion fantasy. It's modern as there's modern guns but the enemies are still dark fantasy.

I'll throw out a half-baked concept! Foundation: We have rich concepts like the "outer gods" in Elden Ring, "great ones" in Bloodborne, and god-like powers manifesting into "painted worlds" in Dark Souls that lay a foundation for the types of grand forces Miyazaki likes to explore. Within these systems, we've been given tons of imagery, references-to, and direct descriptions of things that are astral, cosmic, lunar, etc. This leads to ... Intriguing Setting: I would to see us getting to actually explore content in a "space" setting and actually venture out into the wider universe. Not in a space-sim style, nor in a planet-hopping adventure, but a tried-and-true Miyazaki interconnected world that leans into the cosmic undercurrents of existing lore. I'll leave it up to the pros to imagine how that would actually work. Multiplayer: I'd like to see a system that builds on existing multiplayer (summoning, coop and invasion dynamics) but provides gameplay opportunities for these groups to clash over more than just survival. Imagine a Bloodborne-style chalice dungeon full of rewards but that allows invaders to actually obtain the rewards the player is after if they beat them to it/overcome a challenge first. The ability for both player and invader to enter the boss room at the same time, the survivor given the chance to finish the boss off for treasure or power. I think something like that would be awesome.

Miyazaki said right out he was interested in making a battle royale. No matter what they make I’m gonna buy it pretty much no questions asked.

My idea for the next progression of souls would be an age of dark within the dark souls world, to me its the natural evolution of that world and how the age if fire was just another way to keep many in eternal shackles via the darksign and hollowing. Having a new age where we actually see what gwyn was afraid of(if he had any proper reason to be afraid of) since the dark soul comes from humanity, what if keeping so many humans stuck in the cycle of the age of fire and keeping the undead builds up the power of the dark souls that have been lost and the darksign has no more power and releases the stored up darkness to coat the world and we see connections between the abyss and so forth. It's been a while since I've kept up with the lore so I might have a couple things wrong but hopefully you guys get my general idea. The age of fire was built on top of the sacrifice of those with the dark soul being sealed into a cycle of unleash for the benefit of gwyns age of fire. But the fire in ds3 was already fading and to me that was the natural course, if one chose to relight the flame, there no guarantee another ashen one would come along and continue the process after so much has been twisted and lost.

Anyone have a link to the Miyazaki article referenced?

If they ever do primarily multiplayer games, all I ask is that they focus on netcode quality.

Pirate Souls actually lines up with the leak that came out a while ago stating that one of the upcoming FromSoft games being a (possible?) Dark Souls 4 that explores the sea with elements of Lovecraftian horror. Personally, I don't think there's ever going to be a Dark Souls 4, but I do like the idea.

You are my go to channel for from software games I love your opinion and I love your channel my friend. God bless you and your family.

The pirate idea is great! I heard an interesting theory that a lot of the first pirates were made when Rome fell and their foreign legions were left without a central homeland to owe allegiance to. I think a lot of pirate settings don't focus on world story telling cause it's just about being a pirate, but with Fromsoft I can't picture them not making a game heavy in world story telling.

the one collab I would love to see fromsoft with is guillermo del toro, tim burton, or peter jackson
