Would you trust modern FromSoftware and their obsession with fast-paced, ADHD combat and le epic bosses with 200 delayed attacks with a latin chorus soundtrack and second phase cutscene, with giving us a new King's Field? Should Naotoshi Zin take back the reins?

it'll never happen, and if it does it won't resemble KF like you said
From at this point is basically Hard Boss Fight Loud Music: The Company, any deviation from that will be met with hostility from retarded fans

No one would convince me that this bargain bin dungeon crawler shovelware is good. Same thing with their fake action game bargain bin slop.

Miyazaki did recently lead development on Deracine, and that was a borderline Echo Night revival.
I've heard a couple of rumours that Zin is leading a team that's prototyping a new one.

Souls games aren't fast-paced.

While I'm not a fan of From's new fondness for hyperactive combat, mainly because they're not very good at it, King's Field was a painfully slow paced game. So was that horror walking sim they made. Echo Night, I think it was. The game would be about an hour long if not for the fact you walk so fucking slow.

ironically that's my favorite part about these sorts of games
maybe i'm just burnt out of hyperactive pvp games, but i enjoy slow-paced exploration-based singleplayer games much more now than i did in the past
despite its flaws, i still think dark souls 2 had the best combat pacing out of all of the souls games

I wouldn't mind a King's Field collection that does nothing other than increase the FoV, and tidies up the control scheme a little so you don't spend 3 seconds turning around, but that's about it. If they tried to do a 'modern' one it'd just be first-person Dark Souls.

How come Demon's Souls and Dark Souls II feel the most like a King's Field game

Both had the least Miyazaki creative control

Because Demon's Souls was the direction King's Field was headed after 4 anyway (you could see your guy's equipment on the inventory screen, the logical next step was an actual third-person game) and Dark Souls II had King's Field veterans step in to make a functional video game out of the scraps the original director left behind.
