Very excited to see more games by Masaru Yamamura. He is one of the people who designed Bloodborne fast-paced combat (they even have an NPC in Bloodborne DLC named after him), DS3 weapon skills, Sekiro posture-parry mechanic and the director and lead gameplay designer of Armored Core 6. The guy is a legend already at such an age and the reason he isn't called as one is because he is being overshadowed by Miyazaki. But with him taking the rein as one of the directors I expect a lot from him in the future.

[@gianni.sacciloto]

The only problem I can see with that is the fact we have no idea how well Yamamura would do as a general director. I am keen to see it, but part of what makes Fromsoft games great is the lore and worldbuilding. I feel like he would do better as co-director.

[@ucanhhuynh7183]

@@gianni.sacciloto I have zero worries about that. Fromsoftware is known to have great lore and worldbuilding even before Miyazaki. Besides they have a team of writers for that and I don't think being a general director has anything to do with that aspect.

I suppose that while it's well known that Miyazaki was tired of the souls series by Ds3 ultimately Elden Ring wouldn't be like it is without the full souls series.

Here in the Souls community, we like to think Miyazaki is a god whose wisdom and power knows no bounds. But it's good to be reminded sometimes that he's just a human and has limits. And he himself admits that. It's great that he wants to give the other directors freedom to work on their own projects. A lot of creators, when trusted so fully by so many people, get lost in their own ego and start to act all high and mighty. It speaks volumes of Miyazaki's character that he has remained so humble even after so many successes. The industry needs more people like him.

[@skcasuality7472]

The complete lack of any leaks in recent months has been an absolute bliss, because I believe that it’s the first time in a while that we’ve been this much in the dark about what FromSoft is going to do next. With that in mind, I think the only thing that I have any confidence in saying we’ll see more of in the future, at least in terms of IP, is Armored Core. Apart from the fact that it has been the most successful entry in the series yet, Miyazaki himself has stated that there is a “a strong will to continue it in the future” and that he personally deemed it a success. Obviously they haven’t really said anything concrete, but I wouldn’t be at all surprised if we did see more AC in the future. Completely agree on the Sekiro, if not a sequel, I’d love to see something follow in its footsteps in terms of action and refinement. As to what new stuff they could make, it’s completely up in the air, but if you put a gun to my head and ask me for a specific “dream girl” per say, my answer is simple, Mecha Fantasy. Be it Armored Souls or Dark Core or whatever you wanna call it, I want a full on Souls game with a mecha element to it, and the thing is, I believe Miyazaki kind of wants that as well. Back in the days of DS3, Miyazaki went on an interview saying that he would love to make a game that evoked the same feelings as Aura Battler Dunbine and Visions of Escaflowne, and if you know anything about those 2 shows, you know where this is going. Hell, he even name drops Frame Gride, an old FromSoft Dreamcast game that was basically Medieval Armored Core with a focus on Arena Combat. Mind you, this is an old interview, but given how AC rose from the grave, I doubt it still isn’t a glint in Miyazaki’s eye at least. Edit: I meant “dream game” lol

I’m a bit confused on part of the interview. When Miyazaki mention they plan on still working on Elden ring was that before or after the dlc was announced. I was under the impression that shadow of the erdtree was THE last content planned for Elden ring.

One thought that I had was I’d like to see a fromsoft game where not everything is dead for once. I love the aesthetic of their games, but a souls world brimming with life would be very cool to see

[@DemonKingCozar]

Hearing the talk about a more abstract and crazy fantasy game sounds exactly like shadow tower.

[@sayhowling]

God hearing Miyazaki saying he is cooking more stuff, makes me wanna give half my lifespan to him. i just cant let him go man

[@MrBoBoBo]

Above being the goat of everything, he’s just a great boss to his employees. Fuckin love him so much

[@crabbypatty10fefrefe]

I’d like to see a full, monumental remake of Dark Souls 1. A remake that fully realizes all the ideas they weren’t able to finish. As well as updating the game play.

[@jonathankkennedy]

Ever since Sekiro and Elden Ring, the notion of Dark Souls with jumping has plagued my mind

[@elliottvantonder5477]

Hope we get another Deraciné type experiment from Miyazaki. Y'all slept on that game.

[@oloxhossono1956]

I want them to make a horror title so bad. I bet they could make something incredible in that genre

[@craignaylor2648]

This man is the savior of the community! knows we are all dying in this epic wait and continues to give up something to listen to spoiler free!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@teero121]

gotta say these videos really help with the wait. thanks for posting them

[@FirstLast-yc9lq]

I want to see them go back to horror again.

[@DoomsdayMayBeOkay]

I just hope one of these ongoing projects is anything Bloodborne related

[@Foogi9000]

I think Armored Core 6 dlc will first be announced and then potentially whatever new IP they're working on next. Also Miyazaki mentioning wanting to work on a more abstract fantasy game reminds me of his work on Deracine. I kind of wonder if Miyazaki thinks that the souls formula is at a place he's satisfied with and now he's at the phase where he lets other people direct games so he can work on more passion projects.

[@arctother5176]

Yes! We’re about to witness Miyazaki go full Kojima

[@JankyJuiced]

Re-releasing their older games would be great, They can be hard to get.

[@iceKreamLA]

FromSoft has made so many great titles that any new title from them at all would be worth giving it a try. with that said, i would absolutely buy ANY title Miyazaka himself cooks

[@MailmanSSB]

FromSoftware’s parent company recently bought Acquire, who helped develop Tenchu. I would love them to continue Tenchu with the things they learned from Sekiro, maybe go even more in a stealth direction

[@ИванВанёк-л5б]

They didn't "help" develop Tenchu, they created the series, developing Tenchu 1, 2 and 4. Tenchu 3 and adjacent titles were developed by k2. Fromsoft were only producers on tenchu 3 and 4 and don't have anything to do whatsoever with Tenchu 1 and 2. Fromsoft only developed tenchu mobile games and some shitty puzzle game for Xbox live

[@matthewbickley4289]

Poison Swamp: The Poisoning.

[@WealthyHomeless]

Anything miyazaki and fromsoftware cooks I'll be there first in line to taste it.

[@anaguma90]

At the end there where you said you'd try whatever FromSoft made, you made me remember Déraciné. Never played it (because VR) but I wonder if we could see more experimental stuff like that again.

[@shagaru1234]

an armored core 6 expansion is most likely the next thing for fromsoft

[@MrQuin3614]

is it just me or anyone else wondering why you left the invasion at 4:40?
