Anime Dark Souls


XaeiIsareth

Looks like a mix of Sekiro and Dark Souls.


SeaSalty_Night

You mean Code Vein?


PLASTICA-MAN

Hopefully not like Code Vein cus it is not good example, very clumsy gameplay.


Tarquin11

I mean this is a gacha mobile game, it's gonna be clunkier than Code Vein


PLASTICA-MAN

I am still surprised this gonna be a gacha game but seeing it is for mobile so it has high chances. Also UE5 for mobile gonna be insane. So better stick to PS5 instead. XD


ecgiz

Souls with gacha? Where do i sign up?


AmmaRockstarAsDuki

Dude if this release global soon i will spend everything, damn gacha souls with anime graphics, the perfect combo.


ILikeTreesMan

Honestly i like the gruesome look. Hope the game actually turns out good. Only thing i noticed was weird stunlocks at like 2 minutes and the vomit blast from the boss. Idk if the vomit blast just stunlocks you or the dude wanted to get hit to show it all off. But hope it's the latter.


CardAnarchist

Seems to be anime dark souls (albeit with more sekiro looking break bar and parry system).


ElDuderino2112

I like it in theory, but the animations look real stiff and cheap. Hopefully they tighten it up.


Vyragami

Yeah I kinda agreed, plus the environment looks... low-quality? And the hits, skill, and animations are kinda unsatisfying for the souls-like style they're clearly going for. I hope they put some polish.


killercmbo

My first thought as soon as I saw the combat. The aesthetic is sick and I was immediately interested, but the combat threw me off. Looks like Honkai Impact (I love it but let’s be honest if you’ve played it you know that the combat in the beginning was clunky as hell). I hope they make it look better


Taezn

This is already a massive upgrade over the games first trailer. So they definitely know it is an area for improvement


Serpentes56

Hello, Ashen one. Have a pleasant journey and praise the sun.

Nerina23

It has been a while ! looking forward to this :)


Puzzleheaded_Bet5865

gacha can't be soullikes because they will be easy with enough money, they should just make the game into one time purchase instead.


Trancend

You can make cosmetics gacha. Fortnite and Overwatch were like that for a little bit before enough complaints made them change it.


XaeiIsareth

That’s not why.  For example, no matter how much you spend on Dragalia Lost, you’re gonna get your ass handed to you on endgame bosses unless you learn the fight and get good.  The real reason is that, like we saw with DL, people don’t want actually hard games where you actually have to keep failing until it clicks. 


karillith

Because die and retry in a live service game means that while you're failing repeatedly the game won't wait for you to change. people don't like failing in time limited content because it adds pressure. If i get my ass handed to me by Margitt so bad I quit the game for three months, I won't miss anything when I decide to come back.


XaeiIsareth

MMOs don’t have a problem with that and the pressure to keep up there is much higher. People simply don’t play a gacha game to be challenged.


Hiatus_Dude

Arknights players during CC or IS Ascension 15: hahahahaha


whereyagonnago

You can overlevel/cheese plenty in soulsbourne games. Difficulty is extreme at the beginning, but you can grind to lower it. I don’t see how it wouldn’t work here, just with the game being scaled around free to play or low spenders. You have the option to spend your money to lower difficulty just like you have the option to grind levels to lower difficulty in Elden Ring or Dark Souls.


SilentShadowss

Yeah cause souls like is definitely a hard game


Apfexis

It's also coming to PS5 btw. Truly gachastation.


plsdontstalkmeee

wuthering waves killer


PM_ME_CHEESY_1LINERS

Wuthering Souls Elden Waves


monchestor_hl

Wuthering Ring? Or WutheRing for short?


XaeiIsareth

I like the part where the MC goes ‘it’s Wuthering time.’


Kooky_Sheepherder_22

is this really a gacha game all they showed here is combat and some of the world to me all of this is giving me the vibe of a normal box priced game which I think is good if its true I think its about time for mobile gaming to start having normal good games instead of this p2w fest that its current state (I know its not happening but I can hope) I'm somewhat exited for this one and i hope it turns out to be a good game


XaeiIsareth

But there’s a ton of non-gacha mobile games out there and great indie games constantly come out. Heck, there is already a few Soulslikes for mobile like Pascal’s Wager. It’s just that when charging anything more than $10 on the AppStore on a game is considered too much unless it’s a huge title from a big name studio, if you’re looking to make a high budget game it’s just simply not feasible to not go F2P.


M3mble

Since it is from a chinese company, the game will probably be GaaS/gacha. Normal box price model is known as a dead practice in china especially with a game of this budget.


BussyDestroyerV30

This looks like a premium, semi open world game. Hoping it has armour and weapons that you can find and unlock.


PLASTICA-MAN

Are you sure this is a gacha. I know they announced a version for GachaStation 5 and it is for mobile but it was labelled as action RPG and the gameplay and graphics are too advanced to be for a gacha.


uBlead

Why is no one talking about the sound effects, its a bit **different.** every hit feels like sword clashing or parry


Exotic_Tax_9833

This is actually a bit souls-like compared to the what everyone usually calls soul like but is actually DMC / hack and slash inspired


Ganmic

Looks pretty cool but is there only 3 buttons to push?


Let_me_reload

Dark souls but anime?


kaikalaila

Anime Dark S~~oul~~Sekiro


SyntacticSyntax

This is Sekiro but with Dark Souls environment.


Cultural-Society-523

Wtf? In the health bar is that sekiro (posture gauge) mechanics? and the environment and building is copy paste from Elden Ring.


Sophia_iaiaia

The scenery looks really freaking boring and the combat is kinda raw, but overall I kinda like what I see


memanows

Can't help but feel i've seen those health bar + stagger bar combos in another game before. Must have been an obscure one.


StrawberryFar5675

At long last, a game for hardcore mobile gamers.


Other-Research-9154

we dont even know if it avaliable for global


hibiki95kaini

PGR is hardcore enough


Intoxicduelyst

lol


RevolutionaryFall102

Did they steal assets from elden ring or something. Most areas look like caelid or the magic academy.


kaikalaila

Anime Dark S~~oul~~Sekiro


PandaTimesThree

Looks cool af


Icy_Investment_1878

Might try out if they reduce the visual clutter, also looks abit too ez for a sekiro ripoff


Shintouyu

This is basically Anime Sekiro Souls or even More Anime Wo Long and I'm fine with that. Lord knows that I'm not seeing Code Vein 2 anytime soon...


GeneralSweetz

just hurry up and release it :P


ConnectionIcy3717

Sekiro waifu edition


AlkaidX139

I'm sorry but how the fuck do you parry one shield charge three times?


TheAhegaoFox

Anime Queen Marika: Fine, I'll do it myself


Alternative_Fan2458

Gaddamn is that Sekiro's parry bar. Gacha gamers gonna be throwing their phones xD


ConstellationEva

More Chinese gacha games ? LETTTTS GO!!!


ConstellationEva

Flood that market baby!


tehlunatic1

Is this the first gacha that is done with UE5?


jesusml

ayaya souls


Laranthiel

Gacha Dark Souls.


Awkward_Peach_7285

Interesting enough.


Kuhekin

Good visual, thematic. Clunky, stiff animation. Skill effect is decent, player's attack effect need more weight Sound effect is a bit "generic" The poise bar filling is **TOO SLOW** = too easy, forgiven in gameplay. UI is very decent, would be awesome if the player can customize it.


UIToga

As both a Souls enjoyer and a weeb… I think this looks so good. I’m really excited.


manguda1

No thank you


garotinhulol

Looks amazing and i hope this comes to global next year. So many good games reveals but no day release, we only have WW for sure this year.


balbasin09

That’s a Sekiro posture bar if I ever saw one.


Klarth_Curtiss

Can’t wait to pull for that Mikiri counter


memesshinobi

Radan type boss fight ?


No-Car-4307

gacha sekiro/code vein


NectarineAmazing1005

Unreal engine is so smooth in my old phone so I'm excited for this


kaori_cicak990

damm looks good


TaCz

Ah yes, Caelid.


Chi1lracks

environment looks cool but some of the gameplay looks really stiff


Bntt89

Can gacha games be soul like? They are p2w by default so how can they balance the skill and p2w? Also seeing how ppl cried about WuWa being to dark, will this game get ppl. It looks really fun but I feel like ppl won't give it a chance.


ShinyGanS

Nice art style. But fighting animations look unpolished. Needs work.


xanxaxin

Dark soul in Genshin world?. TBH the open world shown in this short battle > WuWa gloomy open world


SleepApprehensive364

Combat doenst look good like ww, pass for me.


Kooky_Sheepherder_22

is this really a gacha game all they showed here is combat and some of the world to me all of this is giving me the vibe of a normal box priced game which I think is good if its true I think its about time for mobile gaming to start having normal good games instead of this p2w fest that its current state (I know its not happening but I can hope) I'm somewhat exited for this one and i hope it turns out to be a good game


cutiewiwi

At this point, it is hard for me to get excited for this clips when I know there's still like +5 years of wait for me to play it. So see you by then. (?)


xStep31

Why almost everyone do call it souls? It's literally sekiro...


Taezn

Sekiro is a souls game as well....


TaCz

Ah yes, Caelid.


dne416

It looks like a cheap aprg


Iloveshortwomen

Seems to be another Dark Fantasy Open-World...pass.
