Brayden Nguyen
Yes user, rumours sometimes turn out to be true.
Owen Thompson
>yay or nay also this """leak""" has already been confirmed to be false
Alexander Diaz
It's a """rumor""" that basically true. Personally I don't find the setting appealing because the Aztec/Mayan mythology simply isn't aesthetic enough. Especially not when compared to stylish Bloodborne.
Juan Rivera
>Rumour has it OP sucks cock and is a fag
Dylan Ross
It's only a rumor that BB2 will be announced. Anyone can fake leaks, the only thing to do is wait and see.
Aaron Fisher
People said that about Bloodborne's setting as well. I doubt Aztec is all we get.
I do hope this is true, because it sounds like a neat premise.
Brayden Bell
>also this """leak""" has already been confirmed to be false
By you I assume? Shut the hell up. As much as I want BBII this is the most like possibility. FROM is definitely going to collaborate with Sony again but based big Master Miyazaki doesn't want to keep making souls sequels.
Jonathan Wilson
sounds interesting, but why focus on hand to hand combat?
Daniel Watson
As long as it's good, gimme
Jason Nguyen
Why not?
Asher Wright
>rumour
That's fact nigger
Jason Kelly
>Ancient Aztec/Mayan/tribal aesthetic Who the fuck want this shit fucking setting? >wow cool dude I got a new armour >oh awesome it's a loincloth that goes all the way down to my knees this time >it'll go well with my new stick with a rock tied to it >oh boy a whole new area >it's also a forest but it has a different name, so awesome >wow check out that leopard >it's the same as that panther, but it has spots, amazing
Ayden Campbell
aztec gods are creepy as shit. Game could turn out to be more disturbing than bloodborne but its not real anyway so no need to get worked up over nothing
Jaxson Harris
WHERE THE FUCK
IS ARMORED CORE
Henry Rogers
Can you guys even imagine having a barren as fuck imagination like this retard: I think I'd kill myself.
Jackson Reyes
>tfw no pirate souls
just kill me plz
Kevin Reed
>People said that about Bloodborne's setting as well
I refuse to believe this. Even an utterly hopeless plebeian would be able to see the artistic potential of the Victorian Gothic theme in terms of overall design.
Ryder Powell
it doesnt have to be a souls clone you autist. They are probably tired making the same shit.
Grayson Lee
This is a fake leak most likely made by the guys developing Absolver. An indie souls clone that fits these exact details.
We're done here.
Matthew Thomas
After the reveal, yeah it was a common sentiment. No one knew about how nuts some of the design would be.
Gabriel Allen
>Doesn't know shit about Aztec/Mayan mythology
Luke Howard
Hope this is true. Not enough Mayincatec aesthetic in vidya.
Jaxson Russell
Feels like they can do a lot with the Souls Engine outside of a European setting. I just want to whack some big shit with a club.
Angel Bennett
You're right, you should kill yourself. >Is the “Souls-like, dark fantasy, familiar” game Miyazaki mentioned when interviewed about the future of From Software. Armored Core and a “strange for From Software” game were the other 2 mentioned. And you should go with him. Holy fuck you people are retarded.
Asher Stewart
Yes people did. Did you forget that during 2015, there were 3 damn games about victorian london?
If you think Aztec aesthetics is bad, you never played through act 3 of diablo 2.
Aaron Smith
>new FROM game >another fucking game following the Souls formula Remember when FROM made other kinds of games?
Matthew Ortiz
Aztec could be cool.
Wouldn't have minded Bloodborne with an Egyptian flair for some Nyalrthotep action, but this should have pyramids and tombs too.
Xavier Myers
No, no. I am the real leaker ok
Game takes place in japan, current times you play as a loli prodigy in high school that plays demon souls a power outage happens and enemies from demon souls/bloodborne poor into the world and you have to find a way to fix everything the game is nonsensical and doesn't really take it' self seriously. Everything is moe weabshit
End of the game is the loli being woke up by her mum because she overslept playing video game
I work for Nintendo, so trust me
Logan Rivera
You really should off yourself for having no clue about the suitability of Souls series towards different settings. Yet it doesn't stop yourself from shooting your mouth off like the imbecile you are. For your sake I hope you were joking because otherwise you're a disgrace to humanity.
Jeremiah Bennett
Armoured Core and "something else" is coming as well.
Joshua Baker
>yet another souls game
seriously, how can you not be burned out on this by now
Cameron Nguyen
Maybe we'll get Conquistadors and weapon stuff too, in between the martial arts gimmicks.
Robert Jones
Jesus. Calm down, autismo.
Camden Stewart
I'll wait and see if it's different enough, and the "soulslike" shit is just the leaker being lazy with descriptions. Assuming it's even true.
Adam Bailey
>Aztec mythology is boring
You people have no imagination.
Aaron Smith
current hot trend, burned out on this shit after DS3
Cooper Morales
Bloodborne already established the pinnacle of melee weaponry. They can't go any further than that and they obviously know it.
Nathan Williams
>Ancient Aztec/Mayan/tribal aesthetic. Trash it.
John Fisher
>bloodborne >Stylish
What if we set the game in Victgorian Europe and gave all the enemies boils and tumors?
Jackson Jackson
>anybody can fake leaks
don't remind me user ;_;
Elijah Perry
Thought the description sounded familiar. Not a bad idea if the hype train decides 'wow I know From could make a great souls game like that!' and just latches on to a thing coming out not long after E3 when From is shown to be working on something different.
Anthony Price
I think everyone's missing the most important details here >aztec >hand to hand combat emphasis >probably going to be fighting against aztec gods
It looks pretty fucking savage and creepy though. Human sacrife, Gods on earth. Jungle beasts. Rival tribes. And that is the real culture!! Throw the undead theme on top and it could be incredible
Bentley Martinez
>Bloodborne already established the pinnacle of melee weaponry
Are you being serious here?
Wyatt Cooper
you act like that's a bad thing. there's a reason that shit culture doesn't exist anymore. watch apocalypto.
Ryan Nelson
I loled
Benjamin Cruz
>people believe it's gonna be a Souls clone >people still believe in Bloodborne 2
Which part of Miyazaki saying he's done with making Souls game did you fucking miss?
Ayden Perez
Yeah and the Aztecs were big fans of skeletons. Their Tlacochcalctl warriors wore these giant masks that resembled sreaming skulls.
Justin Nelson
fuck off underage neofag stop forcing your retarded meme
Sebastian Williams
I guess I'd be down for this if it was as or more bloody than Bloodborne, with a focus on growing stronger by consuming the hearts of strong warriors.
Maybe play a consquistador that learns that eating hearts shit is real and has to scrape up from the bottom and escape this bloody jungle hellscape, culminating with being able to consume the hearts of gods and ascend, Bloodborne style.
Logan Edwards
Well guess what greek and egyptian culture also dont exist anymore. Theyre all replaced with Islam over there. Egypt for example hasnt been Coptic since the 8th century.
Zachary Jenkins
Bad bait
Austin Sanchez
Just think in the possibilities
Josiah Carter
You know what? I just want another game with Bloodborne's tight combat. I've done countless playthroughs of it and basically done all there is to do in the game. DS3 was great but BB gave me an itch to go fast. FROM's next title better have trick weapons too or I'm legit going to be pissed. In terms of gameplay the concept is too good for just a one-off.
Isaac Cruz
>growing stronger by consuming the hearts of strong warriors.
That sounds badass
Thomas Reed
Where the fuck did I say anything about a Bloodborne sequel? Stay triggered, faget.
James Long
No more fucking souls games, everyone has souls fatigue
just stop miyazaki you've lost your touch
you're 1 trick pony now
just make
armored core please
Luke Reyes
You ever look at an image and get stuck at why it exists in the first place
Nolan Edwards
>quoting apocalipto as a trustworthy source of info >being this much of an ignorant prick
Luis Rivera
>Rumor >Revealed
OP confirmed retarded
Colton Sullivan
Mesoamerica is a very underutilized setting in vidya. Smite has some gods from the pantheon and they are weird as fk. Also check out Apocalypto for reference of the kind of aesthertic of time/region.
Isaac Cook
>Aztec gods >Hand to hand combat
Fixed your image.
Ian Rodriguez
I was thinking godhand, but okay.

Connor Davis
What's this? Aztec Souls? Always with the souls.
Jackson Hill
>everyone has souls fatigue
Nah. There are those of us who don't play the games for multiple playthroughs, and actually play other games in the meanwhile.
Brayden Gonzalez
Assuming this is true, it sounds pretty nice. Emphasis on hand to hand and customized movesets sounds awesome
Henry Campbell
why you gotta gay things up
Hunter Gutierrez
It can be fun to imagine, even if we know it's not true.
From isn't really known for wildly deviating from their mainstays.
Christian Garcia
Could be cool. We'll see I guess. I hope the game has a self-contained story because they don't do sequels very well, honestly.
Bentley Torres
Pic related is you spot-on.
Name a game with better weapons. Ill wait.
Oliver Barnes
has a game ever done this setting and been successful?
Brody Nelson
*sigh* that all I can do is just *sigh*
Kevin Nguyen
Bayonetta 2. DMC4.
Nolan Cook
I can't contain my excitement
DARK FANTASY BEANERS
Dylan Gray
Medieval 2
inb4 they're shit
Jordan Lewis
I can imagine the twist to be that the chief oracle tells you that your civilization is about to meet its end and the apocalypse was coming. You fight your through jungle horrors and avatars of aztec gods only to reach the beach and witness what the doom mentioned in the prohphecy - Spanish Galleons.
I know its predictable, but if you make the game 95% about it being a jungle crawler action game with barely any hints to it being historical, I guess the introduction of conquistadors would be a nice surprise.
Mason Barnes
Specifically Aztec/Mayan fantasy? Guacamelee maybe? I don't really know enough about that game and if it's current or whatever. There was some indie black and white game that looked shitty so I doubt that was successful.
It's usually more certain aspects of their mythology pulled for use in other places. Like Tetzilapoca (or however the fuck that's spelled) is a large monster in God Eater. Granted it's God Eater so the name and vaguely having an Aztec looking statue is about as much effort as you can expect.
Caleb Foster
Seriously, I dunno why we cant get a good game based off egypt. The bosses and overall world damn near writes itself.
Benjamin Young
You picked dmc 4 over 3...
Justin Thompson
I just want muh Armored Core back
Hudson James
Age of mythology was cool
Nathan Scott
Is there a problem?
Joseph Cook
Bloodborne was my first souls game and I like the formula they follow, never gonna touch dark or demon souls though. that ship has past a long time ago.
Isaac Jones
It's coming.
Cooper Thomas
This is some spooky shit. Like a month ago I was like "What if the guys from FROM made a Souls-Like game, but in the style of Incan, Aztec, and Mayan lore?"
The fact that I thought of both FROM, and that aesthetic, and having it be true makes me wonder if I can see the future.
Send help or psychics.
Carson Davis
And I want my Castlevania and Prince of Persia back, series is dead m8. Best to move on.
Jason Reyes
3 had way better weapons
Carter James
