Miyasaki can convert any doubters into believers babay, it looks dark, decaying and despair is in the air. Thw combat looks more like Demon Souls not quite as fast as bloodborne but very nice ideed. By body is ready and my preorder is just waiting

Thankfully it doesn't look all that much like Demon's Souls' combat (which is what DS2 tried to achieve), much closer to Bloodborne.`

I beg to differ bub but that side flip, backstab and thrust are PURE Demons Souls the animation is exactly the same as several youtubers reported

This doesn't look like DeS/DaS/DaS2 ... more like a lightweight Bloodborne.

I don't know how to feel about this. I think I've expected something else.

I watched the downloaded high res version and now I'm worried about the same thing... Shit just looks too much like Bloodborne. It almost seems like chromatic aberration is there too.

Not hyped, just looks good and interesting (hard to feel hyped for the 5th identical game). It looked like a cross between Demon's Souls and Bloodborne.

They are definitely using the Bloodborne engine. This kind of suck for someone who doesn't especially like BB aesthetics but I can live with that.

On the other hand, changing the combat speed seems to be a gamble. This will make the game harder with KB + M (thanks from) and it will transform the pvp in spammy shit (from which BB pvp suffers).

DaS2 has many faults but its combat ain't one: it's probably the best in the series and they had only one thing to do - remove the fucking Soul Memory. That's all they had to do. Not change the combat speed for no reason (except that they are lazy hacks who prefer to reuse BB mechanics instead of re-implementing the DaS2 combat systems in BB engine).

So I guess DaS3 will end up like this: spectacular PvE, re-hashed bosses (Sif, The Old Iron King) and shitty pvp. Yep, I can only hope that the game will grow on me cause I'm not feeling enthusiasm right now.

It gave me a DaS 1 on steroids vibe.

I like the colours and atmosphere, only a few places in DaS 2 were appropriate.

nah. DaS looks like desolate old places where DS3 looks like kind of horror esque environments.
imo it looks more like bloodborne than DaS.

DS1 on other hand shared part of DaS desolation but ton of places looked more like kind of dark fairy tail

Don't get why people are complaining about visuals, looks good to me.

I am somewhat concerned by the fact that the game seems to be a decent amount quicker than before, def seems to have taken some notes from bloodborne in this regard.

The sword counter in the right seems to be amount of charges on special attacks. Guard breaks perhaps? Seems to be granted by holding the shield? Also sunbros confirmed for returning I guess.
