hahaha holy shit. thank you for that
HE IS THOUGH.
I swear I am the only person in the universe who hates that Link. I love the art style of Wind Waker, except for that fucking idiotic-looking football headed Link. To this day I have no idea what the fuck they were thinking. Who thought “Yeah let’s make Link look like a fucked up cross between Stewie from Family Guy and Willow Ufgood” and why was that person not immediately fired?

Why. Who thought this was a good idea.

It’s been a long-standing point of contention between me and seemingly every other human alive.

So yeah this is pretty much exactly what you would expect when you combine Dark Souls and Symphony of the Night times Indie Budget (not a bad thing, just means no VO, etc.)
Kinda hard to tell how big it is at this point, but things are already branching around nicely, and I wandered into an area I shouldn’t have gone and was promptly annihilated by a surprise boss.
You guys would actually really like this game.
Although I should point out that this game doesn’t wear its inspiration on its sleeve so much as don a skin suit made from it, such is the attempt to cling to the aesthetic and feel and soforth. Weirdly, though, it works.
based on their previous games I have zero faith this game has good friction and I hate flash-style art.

I was wondering how a 2D Dark Souls/Bloodborne would work. Pretty interesting how it’s implemented. Thanks for the heads up!

Oh so by “not a bad thing” you mean “the very best thing”?
(though ok soulsgames have excellent VO, but they’re a notable exception)
Where is the Symphony of the Night part in this, aside from being 2d for budget reasons? I see nothing but a wholesale attempt to copy every single thing in Dark Souls.
Which doesn’t mean it looks awful, I might still have played it if I was desperate for more Souls content. But I’m actually a bit tired of the mechanics at this point, and the timing of release is weird given that Dark Souls III is coming out in just a week or so.
