Who knows, I think the technology is here but it's expensive. Given that most games have variable enviroments it means more assets to create.

I don't know at what point they made the decision, but it was also supposed to be open world game with focus on survival, hence the torch mechanic with lot of dark areas. It was (in small degree) horror game.

>>376074675
Exactly

>>376073918

generally I've read that it was meant to be an open world survival game like that other anon pointed out. The game's code reveals that the Gutter was about 5 times bigger than it actually is and has loads of unfinished stuff in it.

this is pure speculation on my part but I believe the game might have been first person as well. One of the key differences between dark souls 2 and the other soulsborne games is that many of the animations/motions were mocapped versus key framed. It's especially evident with the weapon swings, they feel kind of weightless. It was probably more acceptable in a first person view where you couldn't see the entire motion. Also the other soulsborne games uses the phyre (sp?) engine versus the new tech they developed for das2. This is also pure speculation but in interviews they talk about how they build the new tools specifically for lighting and open world design, and this doesn't really reflect the core design philosophy of the other games.

The original director of the game was "fired" but I wonder if he really just up and left after the project changed to dark souls. People have speculated that it might have been a shadow tower sequel.

Bloodborne was truly amazing. Even the general is still alive after a whole year of no new content or hopes for a sequel.

>>376074819
This is a real mess (in a good way)

Really makes me think how the model artists knew how to translate it into game. Like, seeing this without knowing what it's supposed to be would probably confuse me.

Surely they knew it was supposed to be a pile of rotten flesh. Ludwig looks very amorphous in the concept art (>>376073141) and ended up looking very different in the final version of the game

Good theory, also in concept art you see a lot more companions. Majula was supposed to be fully inhabited town, don't know why was that changed but probably to add the Souls-esque sense of isolation.

Yeah that's the one I was looking for, but there's second part to this with sidewalk, it's from perspective under the bridge and it looks similar to Lower Undead Burg.

>>376075287
considering how that blacksmith doesn't get up and go back into his house when you open the door, they still haven't figured out how to do friendly npc pathfinding, just like when they planned on having Andre open up the area beneath firelink shrine

>>376075287
>why did they change it

It's easy anon. They never made much money with their games. Miyazaki came in and thought 'how about making this game like zelda and monhun'.
People loved it because so hardcoar and the games were too easy, because of these bad casuals and the wii.
They made another like that and poured actual effort in it. They made fuck tons of money and miyazaki became the ceo. Because of this and the constant dicj sucking, we will get more souls like games.

yeah the concept art and dark souls 2 as a whole gives off a "high fantasy" vibe that doesn't really mesh with the other games

in interviews they said performance and optimizing the pipeline was a big part of whatever tech they built dark souls 2 with. Since we know that From is doing a VR title, I wonder if they'll be using the same tools again. Well I hope it's a first person dungeon crawler, it seems like it would be a good fit for VR

Wait didn't Miyazaki confirm that they're done with Souls games for a while? DaS3 was supposed to be last but he said he's open for ideas to make 4th after 10 years or something. Bloodborne was one hit wonder but I don't think they'll make sequel.

I think Bandai Namco commissioned a 2nd game (or had a contract w/From) so the From president ordered their project to be redone as a Dark Souls sequel. Miyazaki probably had little to do with it, he wasn't president and was likely working on Bloodborne at the time.

>>376076139
Gotta agree, even though DaS2 is my least favorite Soulsborne, Majula is tied for my favorite hub with the Nexus.

Drangleic was easily the best world in the series conceptually

I mean even in game it had a few really nice spots like that short bridge immediately after the Guardian Dragon that let you look around at the world and see how huge and fantastical it was even beyond where the player actually goes during the events of the game

shame that most of the world and the game's design in general was so poorly executed, I'd actually love for a DS2 remake a loooong, long time from now because I feel like looking back on the entire series it had the most potential to be great. if only it was made in the BB engine and had fast, slick combat instead of slower and more sluggish than DS1 for some absurd reason

he wakes up in the yharnam that we explored in the game. The difference is that the planes of existence sort of meld together when the pale moon gets closer. So during the game we were exploring that was criss-crossing with nightmares and dreams and people with insight could see all this shit

or something like that

It just hit me that a full titanite demon would probably stand, now i'm really sad we never fought a full one.

Allright thanks for concept art and some lore. I gotta go now but if you post some more that'll be great I will download all pictures tommorow, thanks guys.

They don't die permanently, they just get kicked out of the dreamscape.
The entire game is a dream, even when you're outside the Hunter's Dream, the whole overworld is a nightmarish version of Yharnam. That's why in the worst ending, Gerhman executes you, ending your Oath, you wake up in Yharnam, essentially setting you free.

Dark Souls II has some extremely questionable designs among the good ones

>>376075505
I believe this is not the reason as enemies clearly demonstrate pathfinding. Its more likely that an animation seen only once per play through is not high priority in the art budget.

>>376069854
I only just started the Souls games with SotFS (it was on sale for really cheap), so what are you implying with this image? Are you trying to say it was bad or good?

>DUUUUUDE BLOOD LMAO

Fucking yharnam junkies.

>>376082750
EW god they're so BAD

>>376082750
I like how these were made into decent designs basically just by removing their faces.

Because they commissioned this great chinese artist and he just went ahead and posted all of his work on his site, despite signing in the non disclosure agreement
So FROM got analblasted, fired their ass, and scrapped their work, so that's how we got dog shit zone aesthetics apart from shrine of amana.

Micolash is ourguy

From concept art you can tell bloodborne is a game that was made in FROMs vision

It didn't go to shit like in DS2

DS3 itself was meh for me and DS1 is an iconic game but it's fucking old

Bloodborne really is their best game
Sony really are based
4thegamers babyyyyyy

>memery aside, I do have to agree that BB is easily From's most realized and consistent game.

ALso, easily has the best music of their games:

>Ludwig's theme(s)
>Lady Mariah
>Gascoigne
>One Reborn
>Laurence
>Gehrman
>Yahargul Chants
>Micolash

>>376083535
Father Gascoigne soundtrack, cutscene and backstory make him my favorite souls game boss

Yes he's easy when you get good but he's such a great test if you know how to play the game

The way the track changes is amazing

Just an incredible game overall

>>376083645
>memery aside, I do have to agree that BB is easily From's most realized and consistent game.

Literally this
All of the other souls games have massive issues except for bloodborne
And also the best DLC and world

That feeling of the story going from beats to fucking aliens and shit is epic

And that fucking Ludwig fight is so good it's beyond belief

>>376083746
I still dont know what the hell was that guy. He looked like the Giants but still acted like a normal person.

>>376083662
bloodstarved beast had a great track too.

The slow build up at first matches the slow crawl the boss does before he gets to you. The third phase also coincides with a very quiet transition. The music overall makes it seem like you are fighting the most evil thing in the world.

Fuck, I wish they had orchestra footage of all the recordings, and not just cleric beast.

I was dumbfounded to discover the second floor of the catedral in Bloodborne, a huge, entirely optional area with a fucking hard to find key.

Gotta hand it to From. I don't think any other developer out there develops so much fully realized content that the player has a fucking huge change to miss.

Why did they remove the huge cape from the Prospector set...

>>376083991
That area terrifying, it's part of the reason why I consider Bloodborne a horror game
