Directed by Tarsem Singh, the protagonist isn't a combatant but rather some kind of demigod bard who is looking for stories and as he travels the land and meets people and talks with them he discovers more about what happened there and how the land got so fucked, like say he'd find the skeleton of Sif and the movie would flashback to when Sif and Artorias were best buds.

In the style of A Knight's Tale.

The Road meets Texhnolyze in a dystopian fantasy setting. The movie follows a lone wanderer who we at first know nothing about. The past and history of the world is slowly revealed in flashbacks whenever the MC discovers a new place/person. The movie ends in the MC finding what he was looking for and finally being at peace with himself and going hollow.

In that sense it makes me think of H.R. Gigers designs in Alien could work

alright alright, I got it

make it an adaptation from Bloodborne, its the one, with the best story, as in, go here, do that, and shit like that

DaS1 and 2 wouldnt work, theres no direction, just paths, and the movie is almost dialogue free, like valhalla rising

all trick weapons will obviously be practical, same with most beasts, maybe use animatronics

>Story is told through gameplay and in game items

/v/ kiddies are fucking retarded. Why do they want every game turned into a movie? Is it because videogames won't be seen as legitimate unless they are made into a movie?

>>64990986
>wtf am I filming
You're filming The Raid meets The Revenant. 1 castle, 1 knight. From bottom to top in one long struggle. Once at the top, knight gets a key or a fragment of something and it's shown to be part of a large set that's already partly completed but far from being finished, to imply he's done this many times before and has to do it several times again. Almost no dialogue, viceral action with as little music as possible, camera always close to character to keep a human scale, especially against bosses.

This is a +18 board you know. Get back to your GTA5 online with the other children

Cast Tom Hardy for the protag. He plays a silent character pretty fucking well. Even if he is a meme actor, he's pretty fucking good.

Make it a brutal fighting movie, protag dies, and dies horrendously while fighting. He gets better as the movie progresses and finally ends the cycle at the end being the king guy (been awhile since I've played)


No women or sexual tension to ruin the movie. Just pure action.

have JUST A PRANK BRO guy play patches

a series would probably work better

make 1 or two episodes with dungeon progression and 1 and a half for story and exploration, and throw some fanservice once in a while

If you really wanted to you could, but what makes dark souls unique and special relies on player interaction, all that is lost when the medium is passive

The only way it might work is if it told a backstory to a character who wasn't the chosen undead

Fight the same monster 100 times and lose

Obviously the jubilant Catarina is the MC and he fucks all the nubile maidens

make Patches the MC, thus you can cover both DeS and DaS

as Patches travels we see various knights and warriors, every time different (different builds you know) fighting black knights and big ass monsters

Making a direct adaptation sucks. I prefer inspired.

All games under the Alien franchise sucked. But games like doom and quake are heavily inspired by the movie Aliens, as was Dead Space.

Heat was probably a huge inspiration for Counter Strike.

Movie inspired by video games? Has there been one that was good?

Who cares about Dark Souls.
I want a survival drama Rollercoaster Tycoon movie about children that can't leave the park because there's a DO NOT ENTER sign at the exit.
Bathrooms are extremely expensive and all the rides make you sick, some rollercoaster rides even kill you if not all seats are taken, so the kids have to ration their money to hopefully survive until the park is forced to close because of low customer satisfaction.

It is if you like action

>>64990814
Focus on the NPC characters and their stories and leave the chosen undead wordless and faceless. Lore is implied through cinematography and only when extremely necessary through dialogue.
To pitch it to producers describe it as game of thrones meets heart of darkness/apocalypse now.
6 part miniseries instead of movie, hour long episodes.

In the style of The Witch, with long creepy shots of a ruined land with a whining violin in the background.

Lots of lore and flashbacks done to explain a story, like Harry Potters 3 brothers and the flashbacks in LotR.

Most the story stuff happens after that though, it would only cover the path to the bells and to Anor Londo, most stuff you can do will be covered in episodes which are more relevant, e.g shiva and Alvina will only be in episode 3.

Maybe a longer opening episode

I like things that are hinted at and then not resolved, things that stick in the viewer's mind. The first episode of Pokemon where Ash sees the unknown legendary golden bird fly off into the distance, or in Lost with the Hurley bird, giant unexplained creatures briefly seen and then they're gone. I want the big raven in Dark Souls to be like that.

Dark Souls is babby's first souls game to add to your post. True fans and patricians played Demon's first. Dark Souls nigs are secondaries.

>>64994223
Thing with Dark Souls games is that lore wasn't conceived as anything important, just a glimpse, like Alien did it before Ridley Scott thought he has to explain who Space Jockey is and other nonsense. That's like caring for detailed explanation of Twin Peaks universe, that's why I love Lynch, you have lorefags ask him "why did you put in monkey owl?" and he says that it just looked cool, you know? And it's true. Visuals are everything in a visual medium.

The problem with putting Dark Souls to film is that so much of the story is cryptic and requires some thinking to connect the dots. The tone between the games is also very distinct; Demons Souls has a hopeful but very apocalypstic feel, Dark Souls has a tremendous sense of fantasy, DS2 is a tone deaf pile of shit, and Bloodborne is ceaselessly sinister and weird.

Call me bias, but I think Bloodborne would be the easiest to put to film. It could be paced out pretty well and has a fairly linear narrative, and ending it with the true ending where you kill the moon presence would make for a pretty great finale, basically ramp things up for mergo and then drop the ball, only for shit to hit the fan moments later.

To capture the tone of Dark Souls you'd need a huge runtime. You'd also need to do something to explain what happens to an undead that returns them to a bonfire at death. Lots of little things would need to be spoonfed to the audience and that would damage the tone, which is precisely why Dark Souls is so functional as an experience and not a book or movie.

nothing you said is actually true and sad thing is people who didnt played BB are starting to think that things like >>64993445 says can be true.
its just a fun game, it would be praised by everyone if it werent ps4 exclusive

>>64997886
I think it would be to the detriment of the movie - like a constant sidekick. Would still include meeting solaire and other npcs from time to time

>>64993030
>15 weapons, all of them shit
you've obviously never played the game
>meme guns that do nothing
guns are for parrying
>literally 2 types of boss
>every environment the exact same
you've obviously never played the game
>shitty pointless dungeons instead of proper areas
only in the chalice dungeons
>0 replayability
you've obviously never played the game
>implying finding the weapon with the right stat balance and moveset for your playstyle isnt the best part of dark souls
it literally isn't

Only the setting and selected parts of lore would really translate on screen very well

Anyway, heres some cliff notes if they were to make it

>concentrate on worldbuilding, lots of shots of alien landscapes from DS
>little to no music
>No slow motion action bullshit
>barely any dialog
>No 'boss fights' , it would mimick the game too much, creatures should be shown organically with reason.
>Believable blending of practical/CGI effects
>sense of loneliness throughout
>No exposition, be just as cryptic as the game when characters talk, assume that the viewer already knows the lore as many of them will
>use a lot of show not tell regarding the story.

spaghetti western/70 black pulp

i'm quentin btw

A bit like Stalker; minimal dialogue with the protag silent or at least monosyllabic, lots of scenery porn with a constant sense of hidden danger despite the beauty of it. Encounters with other characters are brief and often end with betrayal or the death of that character.

Get Terry to write and direct it, minimal use of CGI.

Someone already made it

You would HAVE TO make it about the fall of a kingdom. An apocalypse movie or a plague movie or a war movie.

Dark Souls, as we know it, has no actual normal humans in it. So it would need to be a "pre-quel" of sorts to the stories we're used to. You need some humans.

It would need to be 2 or 3 movies. You need to fit in several locales and several lead-up bosses.

And here's a story:

A kingdom of men is fighting against a kingdom of beasts and oddities. The protag is a human.

The humans are starting to win, but during one battle some of their dead return to life and ambush and kill the rest of their troop.

The king of the oddities enlisted help from a necromancer.

Shit goes bad. Lots of undead spread, but the humans are still alright.

He makes a party with a sorcerer and a ranger. They have to find the immortal man who lives in the middle of nowhere who is said to know the secrets of the Undead.

They find him, and then go fight something or someone. Idk.

Everyone dies, hero becomes an undead, and our immortal man, who is also an undead and shows up again looking like a regular zombie, gives our protag his last humanity/effigy and leaves.

Quickly, the protag finishes off the whatevertheywerefighting stealthily as revenge, and is surprised to find that he absorbed its power.

End of part one.

>Everyone dies, hero becomes an undead, and our immortal man, who is also an undead and shows up again looking like a regular zombie, gives our protag his last humanity/effigy and leaves.

I really like this paragraph but I'm not too much of a fan about the rest

I feel you can scrap most of this and distill it down to a small scene at the beginning.

Maybe the chosen undead was a clerical (sword and board kind) who was on a journey with other clerics to stop the curse of the undead.

First five minutes could be him and his friends getting ambushed by an undead hoard with some boss. Protag barely makes it out only to die painfully and slowly somewhere else. Wakes up as an undead. Continues his journey solo meeting the various npcs along the way.

There is a lot of story to ds, but I feel the gist of it can be told in a 2 hour movie

>>65000019

even if this weren't Dark Souls related, I would watch this.

it would be a less faggy and more gruesome and ominous lord of the rings

>>65000019
Seiglinde is human.
I was with you with making it about the fall of a kingdom, but then with the rest I see you completely miss the point of Dark Souls story, and want to make it into a subpar action movie.

>>64994382
>Not Bailey Jay as Gwyndolin

I'd rather make a bloodborne movie desu senpai

>>64992719
Demon souls > bloodborne> dark souls > getting shot in the foot > dark souls 2

You know it to be true

>>65002690
The ps3 emulator can't come soon enough so everyone will realize how overated Demon's Souls is and sonyggers will shut their big mouth
>>64998034
It's the opposite. It's been praised because it's a ps4 exclusive. Objectively it's a dumbed down Dark Souls

>>65002897
>PC cuck waiting to emulate a decade year old tech

El oh el

>>64997654
Well you could have similar situation with dying like Edge of Tomorrow did or Groundhog Day. Main character dies a couple of times at the beginning and learns from the mistakes and becomes capable fighter.

>>65002963
More like anyone who isn't a sony cocksucker is waiting a version with playable framerate. Why do sony keep in hostage this game? Why do they hate gamers? Do they want this game stay in the awful state he is? That's a real lack of ambition. They are killing the japanese videogame with this mindset. And you are supporting them for doing so

>this much asspain

Lol keep waiting buddy just a few more years I'm sure! Not like it's been 10 years or anything. Any day now!

>>64990814
Clearly, this is a job for based Uwe Boll.

>>65003192
So you think it's not worth it to release Demon's Souls in a playable version? Why? Because it's a trash game?

>>65003298
>demon souls as it is right now isnt playable

Nice meme.

>paying to play online
i can wait lad

>>65003298
Well I agree with this guy:>>65003192
Honestly it's not worth it to release Demon's Souls on PC. Dark Souls 1 and 2 are much better. Honestly you aren't missing much and I can understand why they try to forget this game. It could damage the Souls brand if they released it elsewhere and they prefer focusing on the superior Dark Souls

>>65003359
>sub 30fps is playable

Sony cucks keep holding back gaming
