If you want Ancient UK, the Hellblade games are set during then (pre-Scotland forming) but she fucks off early in the first game to the Norse afterlife, and Iceland in the sequel.

>calling this a souls like when it's clearly a Dark Messiah like
Fuck me, I'm a zoomer but sometimes I weep for our generation.

>>718574976
Probably more akin to a Bioshock. No kick, no Dark Messiah.

>>718574998
Bioshock is a Dark Messiah like.

>>718575020
At one point, something is stripped down enough, you can't really call it a Dark Messiah like

>>718574291 (OP)
>First person

>>718575020
They released on the same year. games can't be 'clones' if there's less than a 2 year gap. Cloning the gameplay is the easy part, polish takes 80% of the dev time.

>>718575230
Dark Messiah came out 9 months before Bioshock. It's a Dark Messiah like. Tbh, I guess their all Thief-likes at the end of the day.

>ancient UK
It's about an 18th century french soldier on continental europe

Nah, not worth my time.

At least unlike chinks, europeans surely won't be offended by grim retellings of their history.

>>718574291 (OP)
Those uniforms are French

>>718576137
You can bet there will be people who pretend to be offended and then others will actually become offended when they copy them to fit in

Looks like bioshock. I am happy it looks like bioshock

Depends on whether they depict Napoleon as the good guy (correct) or the bad guy (anglo propaganda)

>>718574424
since it has a gun, it really should be a ShadowTowerLike instead

>>718576925
It's a Darkmessiahlike

It also doesn't have a Kick or interable physics objects

>>718576801
Do brits really see napoleon as hitler?

>>718577082
Idk haven't seen full gameplay yet obviously theres a kick

>>718577239
looking at this 30-minute video
does not look like there is a Kick option

They also see fucking Joan of Arc as Hitler.

Skyrim has fantastical bosses with complex attack patterns? Could have fooled me.

As great as Dark Souls 1 is, the damage it has done to the industry is insane

>>718580020
Any culture this board had is long gone

>>718580152
France did not support the invasion of Iraq.

>>718580312
Dark Souls literally saved the industry from certain Doom.

Actually, First person soulslike'd be so kino.

>>718574940
Skyrim doesn't have parrying or dodges
It doesn't really have unique bosses either

>>718574461
This a joke? Is the studio korean? There are nods and odes to but y'know just straight up putting Godefroy in. Sure! whatever my interest in the game has fallen through the floor.

>>718574461
Nonfromsoft soulslikes are always so derivative and soulless
they just can't capture what makes actual souls games great

>>718581917
Mingaru. It's korean or Japanese I think.

The USA is most likely older than your yurocuck country :)

>>718582302
The only country USA is older from is only Albania

>>718582007
What compels these studios to wholesale adopt - not just gameplay mechanics - but the themes, narrative devices and atmosphere of from's games? Look at that crab game, its a solid hit because it plays like fromsoft but looks more lighthearted and silly. This shit needs to be called out as extrememly derivative.

>>718581921
Polish.

>>718582436
Because fromsoft games are the perfect formula for grim dark settings. Hard to be grimdark if you character is spazzing all over the place like it's DMC or Ninja Gaiden. Meanwhile it's also difficult enough to cater to modern gamers who want bragging rights.
Not to mention this game itself plays nothing like fromsoft games what it being a first person shooter/slasher that feels more like a single player Vermintide

>soulslike
>shows some lame cookie cutter shit with Skyrim combat set in what looks like an asset flip horror version of britbonglandia

>>718582007
What exactly makes them feel great because I replayed Elden Ring a few days ago and I couldn't even make it past Margit without being bored as hell. Limgrave was a mistake as starting area.

>>718582721
Well normies seem to think CDPR is still cool. Witcher 4 will make or break them though. They can't afford another 2077 shitshow.

Lol I wonder if this is gonna rile up some jimmies.

Witchfire looks better and more Souls-like than whatever the fuck this random shit is.

>>718574398
theres one big redflag i dont see in this trailer:
what happens if you simply do a casual swing? they always follow up with a finisher or something fancy throughout entire trailer. usually this is where first person combat games fall apart because it feels like you are swinging at air without the enemy reacting at all.

>>718582995
That would be weird if they make Napoleon the bad guy then.

>>718582875
The main character has a English accent and can't speak French, but is fighting for them, going by the gameplay.

>bioshock infinite without elizabeth
flop

>>718583019
witchfire has nothing going on for it besides the tutorial room and hub room graphics. the gameplay is shallow as fuck and the extraction element sucks balls

>>718583145
Because only one dub. It's not from a big company like Sony, Ubisoft etc

>>718583296
Yeah but all the French characters speak with French accents so it at least implies the MC isn't French he's probably Polish

>>718583429
he is Scottish

How are you going to roll in first person without throwing up?

>>718589127
They just make the roll a dash instead

>>718576801
Napoleon started as the good guy and ended as the bad guy. Not that many of his enemies were 'good guys' to be fair but Emperor Napoleon was definitely just another power-hungry monarch obsessed with colouring in a map.

I'm curious how the combat will feel. Ghostrunner is cool but it's also all about speed and instant kills

>>718593460

This is how the rest of the World see us Ameribros

Why does this board seethe at Britain so much now?

>>718598223
The government there basically wants to tell the world what is and isnt allowed on the internet, based on their own insane metrics that even their own people dont like. They dont believe in free speech, and believe you shouldnt comply with that.
>even the police are quitting en masse because they are openly saying the laws they are upholding are bullshit and the government is trying to get themy to police people in America, which is a complete waste of resources
Britian is fucking retarded, theres another 3 years of this shit, who knows what other schemes theyre going to pull in that time given what theyre already doing.

>>718598430
four years the Labour government will drag itself to 2029 until they call an election

>sets in ancient UK
It's set on continental Europe and you play as a Frenchman

>>718598892
What's the difference between a French and a brit?

why so many disgruntled naysaying faggots on this board
i think it looks cool
a first-person soulslike is interesting, at the very least

>>718599313
first person melee combat doesnt work unless the enemy dies in 1 hit

>>718581847
It does have both parrying and roll dodges you retarded nigger, they're just locked behind perks

>>718599436
I kindof disagree. I really liked xeno clash, condemned and even Dying Light, what they need is for the combat to feel reactive, if you hit an enemy and it just whips right through them its deda on arrival, they have to get knocked around and require where you aim to impact them differently.

>>718581847
To be fair we didn't know at the time that the Draugr Lord was basically the only boss and copy pasted in all the 100 dungeons. For all we know this Napoleon looking chap might be the only boss in this game too.

>>718574291 (OP)
i'll buy it.. unless I hear them talk with american accents

>>718589127
>How are you going to roll in first person without throwing up?
huh?

>>718589494
Napoopan was a real human bean because instead of being a complete grifter like the faggots of the revolutionary council who send everybody to die in greedy wars, he also propped up an organized state while sending everybody to die in greedy wars. The french shit on him just fine don't need the british's help for that.
Another Roman cocksucker, Mister Emperawr.

>>718574291 (OP)
how is this a soulslike? Why do fags like you use term erroneuously? It looks more like skyrim or Dark Messiah

>>718582007
>they just can't capture what makes actual souls games great
Neither can From anymore since BB to be honest (Sekiro was cool but not really a souls game).

what are do you guys suppose the plot is about? who's the character you control?

>>718606354
the devs themselves are calling it a souslike

>>718574291 (OP)
Looks amazing. I'm actually buying it if the reviews will be solid. The setting has potential and there's not a lot of good first person souls likes.
