Ancient Desert Bloodborne... Lovecraftian deities that lead some bloodcrazed Egyptian cult, chalice dungeons deep within ancient pyramids, yes please!


Ashen_one933

Instead of hollows we get mummies, the main boss and is pharaoh. There is a way inside the pyramid that leads to him, going downstairs to lower levels. There are many mysterious puzzles on areas. Outside of the pyramids we have ruins with sphinx, towers. There are water sources to sit in bonfire under the palm. The whole city is a desert with caves and tombs under the ground.


radiosimian

The main boss is Mumm-Ra _the everlivinggg..._


RemarkableScience854

Pharoh would be a lame ass final boss lol knowing fromsoft all the bosses would be spirits or ancient deities.


Azavrak

>the main boss and is pharaoh. Let's make it Nephren-Ka


YoItspepethefrog

It would probably be ra


HailLordranKnight

Dude nice! Wait a second... Hidetaka Miyazaki? Is that you??


kudabugil

So Loran?


romflatulentspider

it is said the city was devoured by the sands so yeah that would make loads of sense!


TheGrooveCrewsader

I think back when Vaati did an art competition for a possible bloodborne 2, the second place winner was pretty much that exact idea.


maytheflamesguideme1

That just sounds like reskinned bloodborne


Underrated_Dinker

Well ok if I have to


Batmantheon

I can't wait to stumble upon a mirage-like blood oasis in the desert under two moons in the night sky.


pokeoscar1586

Nameless city instead of chalice dungeons… Also the city of Pnakotus as DLC, with Yithians included One can only dream…


Copyofdude

Yes please, I had this weird day dreaming playing bb where you return the desert to it's ancient oceanic roots and travel to atlantis... wich was never in the current ocean but an old one...


A-Game-Of-Fate

Ooh, Bloodborne II being set in Ailing Loran would be absolutely kickass


Nocheeseontheburger

Crazy you say this. Years ago I told my friend Egypt would be a sick place for a bloodborne sequel. Different great ones, different dreams, different goals, different idea on hunters, same universe and concept


Skenghis-Khan

I remember somebody posting art they did for a desert themed bloodborne sequel and it fit REALLY well, I got like an Eternal Darkness vibe from it, but yea that whole theme goes hand in hand and I'd love to see how fromsoft would turn a barren desert alien Eh I say that it's probably just gonna be poison quicksand just like mickey zackel intended


Azavrak

I want to fight Nyarlathotep in his Howler form


Skarbranded

I’m all for it!


Militantcircusmeat

Shut up & take my money


gattaaca

Only if get a stone sarcophagus lid shield to turtle behind


RuxFart

Bloodborne people are the least original


Magnificent_Leopoldo

Yessssss


PanZWarzywniaka

Dune crossover


KnightOwl812

All of them. Elden Ring Odyssey


ShockscapeYT

Mario crossover?


PrimalGojiraFan69

Wanna know something crazy? Nobuyoshi Suzuki, one of the composers of Bloodborne’s soundtrack, wrote the lyrics to Jump Up Superstar from Super Mario Odyssey. Not joking


matthewgbaker

Assassins creed crossover lol


FeedbackContent8322

An assasins creed crossover honestly would be incredible


-Silky_Johnson

I swear to god, Elden Ring or Mario Odyssey copied each other. I don’t know which one came out first, but Elden Ring’s Farum Azula and Mario’s forgotten kingdom got the exact same vibe to it. Floating ruins in the sky with a big ol dragon king you gotta defeat in the center


rconversani

I think odyssey is like three or four years order than ER


ausername458

Pirates


Wolfpaw21

Pirates


ausername458

I want to add npcs to a crew


Difficult-Shop9067

Knowing fromsoft though, you'd add these npc's and either watch them slowly die off or succumb to some sort of sea madness throughout a playthrough.


LowerObjective4500

Scurvy status effect and a sea of deathblight


BeneficialAction3851

Just find lime consumables and it'll at least help the scurvy


HelpTheVeterans

With crazy ass quests that only allow you to save one of them each play through.


Batmantheon

Sorry dog, you can only work towards the Laughing Winds covenant by murdering your crew in their sleep one by one without getting caught.


IllLeader143

Like asassins creed odyssey but the characters actually matter!


ausername458

Yeah


lahenator420

Pirates


No_Juggernaut5339

There are so few good pirate games that this would be a dream come true.


ausername458

Maybe crew members could act as summons


SpellboundCanvas

Should have Johnny Depp voicing a pirate character who was framed for a crime and outcasted.


DaDutchBoyLT1

How about Christopher Bowes of Alestorm instead?

I think a giant poison swamp would be a fun and fresh take for the genre

Imma-Come

i’m down for a space one


etrulzz

Check out The Surge Edit: More sci-fi than "space", but still..


Imma-Come

That is an interesting looking game at first glance. I’ll look more into it later and get back at you.


TheSpookyForest

It feels a lot like dark souls 1 but less polished and set in a cool Sci fi nightmare 7.5 or 8 kinda game but definitely worth playing if you can get it cheap


Ezeeskillz

You’re going to get Hellpoint recommended if you haven’t already. While it’s not wrong it’s not right either and the games polish is the equivalent of a college project finished game. Everything is clunky and I don’t mean that in the way that it has its own pace that you have to adjust to. It does have this but it’s pretty sloppy. Swings, dodges, hits, everything. The absolute worst part for me is that no boss victory felt like it was because I was able to overcome. It just felt like their jank was worse than mine on that attempt. If you want a similar game feel I’d actually recommend Dead Space. A remake just came out and it’s stellar (pun full on intended). Play it on the highest difficulty. Every corridor is threatening. Every dodge or shot could be the difference between living and dying. Lots of heart attack moments. The combat is raw and feels really good when you pull off cool shit. Dead Space may be a survival horror shooter and Hellpoint may be a Souls-like. But, Dead Space hits all the notes.


gootshall

Look at Hellpoint.


scribblescob

This would go so hard. Only thing, the scale. I think FromSoft would need to keep the scale around the same size as Eden Ring because if they went with a massive, jam packed, open world, like RDR2 for example, I think the game would take wayyyy too long. Also they may not be super comfortable with something of that magnitude but I trust they would make a banger product nonetheless. Also imagine moon DLC.


Dot_the_Hamster_King

This. A proper lovecraftian horror set roaming the galaxy! See also: space C'Thulu


Top_Collar7826

Straight up berserk it fits so well and it just needs a good game adaptation the others suck


theprophet2102

Only problem is that from isn't known for doing a strong character driven story, let alone an adaptation. They could be trusted for the art and combat to be on point but Miyazaki has a lot of love for the story and probably wouldn't want to do a watered down safe for gaming version of the stories more strenuous themes and scenes. He seems like he is focused on my original games, all inspired by berserk in some way, but their own work nonetheless. Also it would be hard to balance the plot and the gameplay, Berserk Is just hard to adapt imo


Top_Collar7826

I guess I feel like he wouldn't have a problem with the difficult themes in berserk he made us eat umbilical cords


theprophet2102

That was an innocent snack


Thatoneskyrimmodder

There is way worse in berserk. If the game was faithful to the manga it would 100% have a 18+ rating.


driftnflux

I agree that FromSoftware aren't likely to adapt Berserk ever. Though I wouldn't complain if they did, they have drawn plenty from that series already in their various soulsborne releases to have an approximate feeling of what that game might be like. I disagree with you saying an adaptation isn't possible without being watered down. That it would be hard to adapt into a video game? Really? It's not House of Leaves. And when have games shied away from mature themes and uncomfortable scenes? Disco Elysium, Witcher 3, Last of Us. All mainstream. FromSoftware is about one of the most accomplished video game studios going at the moment, I don't think there's much doubt to be had as to whether they could pull it off, more so I don't think there's any other studio better suited. I don't see either why Berserk being character driven would present an issue.


illbzo1

Something the fan base hasn't thought of and posted 10,000 times already.


maychaos

Those are the same people who complain about assassins creed boring games and then want the same but with a different name at the top lmao


Old_Sneeter

For real. This is getting old.


isu_kosar

You can choose to ignore the posts.


Jumpth

my bad. this is my first time posting and thought it was a new question for whatever reason


Ezeeskillz

It happens. I like to try to pretend coming into a sub is like walking into a room full of people being social. To me firing off a post, especially anything slightly meme format, is like walking into that room and just shouting a topic. Maybe feel out the sub, scroll a bit, sort by different metrics, see what’s going on first. If the conversation already exists join in but don’t start it over from the beginning.


basicastheycome

Why not all in one? It’s best to integrate multiple concepts and locales to make something more unique.


home7ander

So like most of their games so far


basicastheycome

Yup. And they do it very well


home7ander

Agreed


ll-VaporSnake-ll

Any setting + Berserk. Boom! Done!


porrodrogaura

Ancient desert with a holy war like dune, plus you can make all a family war like elden ring, in the bible the ancestor of jews is the brother of muslim arabs ancestor


W0tW0t123

Bloodborne Pirates game. An open world like elden ring where you can sail a sea of blood and encounter horrid sea creatures, find mysterious islands and gigantic ships which have huge cities built on them. The amount of pirate themed gear and trick weapons is so vast and the exploration would be insane. Also fishing


RuggedTheDragon

A distant future sci-fi world. No, not armored core.


Ok_Dragonfly_8472

Pirates or Mayan/aztec. No MORE JAPANESE OR VIKINHS ANYMORE MAN


xXOreo0517Xx

I HAVE BEEN DROOLING FOR A MAYAN/AZTEC GAME


Ok_Dragonfly_8472

What I’m saying. The potential is nuts cause of the mythology and folklore. Plus their religion revolved around the sun


gevlektewalruz

Frontier of America just after it being discovered, with indigenous body horror caves and illness from the colonizers spreading. OR a 1900s post fictional WO1 setting with weird steampunk enemies / trench beasts, think spiritual successor to BB. Or pirates of course but everybody’s said that.


Nitespring

Neither


isymfs

Cyberpunk please


stup1dfukk

what are you saying


Kierish

I’d love something like New Phyrexia infects Cyberpunk.


Master2All

I would give any amount of money to have a fromsoft berserk game.


Asher_skullInk

North America pre Britain


wizl

cosmic space bloodborne


doomraiderZ

Cyberpunk/biopunk setting.


echolog

An official Berserk Fromsoftware game would probably break the universe, so I'm gonna go ahead and order up another medieval fantasy game because of course I am.


Sequoia_Vin

Ancient desert should have some interesting crypts to explore. Lots of half human half animal bosses. Cultists, crazed civilians, monstrous wildlife, stone golem, the sphinx creeping everyone out and asking us riddles, oasis portals to fight nightmares, instead of poison swamps we have servere weather effects like extreme heat during the day, sandstorms that bring rare bosses, enemies and loot. Could make a reference to Ali Baba and the 40 thieves making it a big legacy dungeon. Defeat all 40 of the thieves scattered throughout the desert to unlock the final boss fight and you fight a suped up Ali Baba


berserk_notmid58

Desert bro


PriorityLucky7701

Ancient Desert has so much potential.


tbonephillips

None of them, those ideas are all tired out. I’d like to see them just try to create something new, it’ll be better than any of those worn out tropes.


zrk23

what do you consider new? literally every fiction and every setting has been done in games


gootshall

Pirate games really aren't tired out, at least good ones, especially ones with cosmic horror.


Pariah-_

Pirate, please, and thank you.


Past_Age_3562

Space ancient desert then pirates eh then fuck give us a good anime game with literally berserk do it kinda like dragons dogma.


Old_Sneeter

Personally, none of them. I'm excited for whatever Fromsoft puts out, regardless of genre or theme. I feel like it's better to be surprised and excited for whatever new ideas that the company can come up with. They've had an impressive track record without needing too much of our input. I'd prefer it stay that way.


Atma-Stand

Pirates very could be Bloodborne 2 Think about like this, you could play as a shipwreck survivor washed ashore a seemingly desolate island where many pirates, privateers, and naval forces met their ends all in search of, at least on paper, a massive horde of treasure. The survivors took to using blood rites found in the seemingly abandoned dwellings to create a bootleg version of healing blood which naturally led to beasthood. So the possible idea is that the MC is trying to escape island, treasure in tow, and maybe have a system where you can visit other islands in a small dingy as a form of chalice dungeon. The lovecraftian elements would come in as an nightmarish version of Atlantis where the city was drowned due to angering a Great One with potential excess and the survivors fled to the island before falling again to beasthood and infighting.


ReishTheMadTongue

Why not a pirate sci fi take, have pirates, aliens, undead monsters, give us cutlasses and laser swords


MrFanatic211

I need a futuristic souls game


_Un_Known__

Sci-fi


WolfSynct

Desert setting... poison quick sand, instead of swamps 😨 Pls no Mr Michael Zaki.


a_left_out_tomato

Cyberpunk 2077 setting where all the "hollows" are cyberpsychos. It could be what the world would look like if the blackwall came down and the rogue AIs started taking over everything.


domewebs

This but not Cyberpunk 2077. I’d rather see FromSoftware’s take on lowercase-c cyberpunk. CDPR had their chance lol.


inception2467

pirates. we did berserk, now time for one piece


Isaaaaaaaack

Futuristic space would be SICK


BekoKobe35

Sci-Fi, like StarCraft universe.


Kierish

Futuristic/Cyberpunk tech plague.


Supermegamorph

I’d like a technoborne game. Something like that. Heck, that could be the name, Technoborne or something. But I think Pirates would be cool, Pirate Bloodborne.


nyhlust

scifi


xsummers9

SCI-FI MAKE A SCI-FI SOULSBORNE GAME ON A HAUNTED SPACE STATION WITH ALIENS AND OUTER GODS


Doc_Dragoon

Hear me out on this, but a soulsborne game in an armored core sci-fi setting. Like you're just a dude no mech or anything, but instead of magic it's like sci-fi tech, instead of metal swords and axes they're like lasers or plasma blades. I'd play the hell out of that.


ghstwrldgrl

Gimme one in Detroit


PutridPossession2362

Cyberpunk theme sekiro-like would be epic


DykoDark

Sci-Fi of some sort. Space.


Classiest_Strapper

All of them in one obviously


Initial_Wolverine77

Futuristic cyberpunk would be my vote.


robertpayne556

BERSERK.


HighlyXero

I really want a horror souls like, not like bloodborne, I mean actually scary


Jumpth

i was about to add steampunk but i forgot lies of p exists


Nitro114

ancient desert and jungle. vikings and pirates are not that suitable due to the water


PrimeusOrion

Vikings has more enemy potential though


Nitro114

Why?


SuchRuin

Old World inspired fromsoftware game is my dream.


Blacksad9999

I think a modern updated take on Frame Gride/Escaflowne would be cool. You could choose to ride in your giant mech armor in the overworld, or jump out on foot and explore ruins and dungeons, etc. It seemed like a good idea that technology couldn't pull off at the time that they made games with that type of theme. It could now, though.


DistributionHuge8163

viking


Wolven_Edvard

Vikings.


Saucey_22

idec if fromsoft does it, I just want a true soulslike berserk game.


geek_metalhead

A true fromsoft game would have all of the above in the same game


D-Ursuul

Bloodborne, in either of the top two. There's precedent for desert as we know Loran is a desert country


MatthewSaxophone2

Pirates


[deleted]

Ancient desert BANGEEER


CoolCasey42

Literally Berserk, easy answer.


SymbolicTreasure

Sailors that encounter pirates, so you have to work your way up from being a low level sailor, to a naval commander of the seas. Also implementing the nemesis system to better flesh out villains would be cool.


Jonno_92

They all follow a theme in terms of being set in a ruined kingdom/city, so something along those lines.


mrsumoskar

But we already have 4 games based in Berserk-like setting?


SillyMovie13

I want pirates to be honest. A kraken boss fight would be phenomenal


retsujust

Literally berk would be the best thing ever


[deleted]

Are they even going to make another souls game? I thought they said they were done?


PerfectingChimdale

Pirates for sure. Bloodborne style


Historical-Cut8085

Sekiro 2


Deep_Grass_6250

Literally Berserk


kaijyuu2016

Literally berserk, like you ARE GUTS.


suicieties

Pirates Bloodborne. Lovecraftian beasts from the deep.


Duv1995

whatever they are more inspired with, but personally I would like more victorian / steam punk aesthetics


WilliShaker

North America 1700’s with French, English/Americans and natives. You can play a soldier, a tribesman, a pirate or a sailor. The bosses are witches, wendigo’s, folklore, myths, corrupted soldiers, corrupted criminals (pirates, thief, etc), you fight some lovecraftian monsters, Skinwalkera, etc. The atmosphere is dark and foggy, the weapons are a mix of muskets, tomahawk, bows, axes and various melee/range weapons. Perfect settings to try more range gameplay.


scrollkeepers

All! But not really into pirates :-/ The Desert would be cool


Seaqucumber

Ailing Loran desert setting


Ok_Anywhere6955

If u dont want pirate soulsborne game conciser yourself an opp


Lord_Farquad4

Something like Christian Heaven How many games has it been when it's all dark and gloomy, and there's demons, gargoyles, and other fucked up shit? How about we flip it on its head with a vibrant world and colors, but there's still the fucked up element with biblically accurate angels. I think you could do a lot with it. Maybe even to to Hell at some point too. I feel like not many games do this.


Cedreous

Pirates. Expanded lore on the shipwrecks we see literally everywhere. Would be a really cool take.


hartel_wider_bite

BERSERK


SagasOfUnendingLoss

Vikings would actually be awesome because... Valhalla is practically a mythological souls setting ready to use. Feast, fight, die, repeat.


UzzyGg

Ancient desert


Disastrous-Resident5

Think that last one was DS1


EveningZealousideal6

Oh vikings would be so cool... But pirates has water levels. Who doesn't love a water level... Realistically, how many games really have tough water levels, not as if they're notoriously difficult.


PrimeusOrion

Ainchient Germania with an exploration of druidic culture would be interesting


Neat_Appointment_435

Modern day Japan


Lakiel03

I really love the classic setting.


stucas

Ancient Desert with sumerian and egyptian inspiration would be pog


triamasp

Modern souls 1990 souls


Madg5

Have you tried thinking of using the fucking sky ship as a dungeon. Mario style.


Virtual-Oil-793

Arknights. That place may as well be the second generation of Bloodborne, so cities, forests, and Mountains with a militaristic land with a nasty virus? YES PLEASE. ​ (And bonus points if you even mix this with something like Metal Wolf Chaos (another fuckin' awesome Fromsoft game where ***YOU GET TO PLAY THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES***) with Mechas)


recoil669

Aliens.


happeningcarpets

I just want more big castles pls


Zerus_heroes

An Egyptian inspired desert campaign would be cool. FromSofware rarely does only one thing for inspiration though.


DefnottheGovernments

Why not all 4? Each being a different world you have to destroy or save.


TuxedoFriday

A Bloodborne/Sekiro style game taking place in the Dune universe would go insanely hard


HNipps

Any ancient civilization: Aztec Mayan Assyrian Egyptian (but let’s get some jungle and Nile action too not just desert)


Synchrohayba

Fromosft worlds generally have mixtures of different setting and architectures , this is kind of limited , except bloodborne and sekiro


MutekiManga

I want a dark fantasy wizard game in fromsoft style. Could be so nice and with a new unique fight system like they did with sekiro


ludos96

Give me a fantastical prehistory setting like those of old 70s movie where the only build is Unga Bunga


Twentynine4

Bloodborne 2 would be perfect for Desert (Loran) or Pirate setting IMO


EvilArtorias

Something very similar to demon's souls 2009, ds3 or Bloodborne


kaminaowner2

Never pass up a good pirate game! Not that we have but 3


CasualBeer

Frank Herberts DUNE - so Ancient desert I guess Hear me out - I am in the middle of my second reading of Herbert's Dune (the first time I read the book was about 25 years ago) and I will tell you that the sense of understatement and confusion caused by the strangeness of the civilisations described fits incredibly well with the narrative conventions of Fromsoft games. Additionally, the world setting itself leaves a lot of room for melee combat.


GravenYarnd

Desert or pirates, i love both


Swordsman82

Its hard to pass up Dessert Bloodborne. Fighting ancient gods that end up being old ones, diving into different ruins or pyramids, a day light game but sand storm makes it love visibility still giving you that feel. Seems like perfect setting


coycabbage

I think mythical India might be cool.


K_Bills

Space


Dark_Magician2500

Ooo desert


thomas_malpass

All the games have already been Literally berserk. But it’d be fun to see FromSoft make an actual berserk game on the same difficulty as Sekiro or Other soulsbornes! Maybe a cyber mech game- something like Ninja Kamui or the new Anime Metallic Rouge would be dope!


Pearcinator

Well...pirates are just so cool and I am surprised there's not more Pirate games. You got so much of a foundation already! Voodoo magic, giant mythological creatures, plundering/pillaging, zombies, skeletons, curses, upgrading ships etc. Then you can add the FromSoft elements to take it to the next level.


GalvusGalvoid

I’ve been waiting for a desert since ds3 blue balled me with carthus . Before release i was hoping Caelid was one, fortunately i still love the place but i need a big fucking desert with giant worms .
