    I know what Armored Core is lol, no s*** it didnt play like Souls it was before Souls nowadays 💀💀

    I played AC games & multiple FS games before Demons Souls since the PS1 lol before i even knew their name. Just said itt that Chromehounds is one of my fav games of the 360 era, Otogi series is one of my favs on the og xbox, n shadow tower on ps2. All of this is before Miyazaki & most of those old FS developers arent there anymore outside of a few.

    Im saying a NEW MODERN TODAY Armored Core will probabaly be "just robot souls".

    Which isnt far fetched lmao.

    Sekiro started out as a Tenchu reboot then got soulsified which became Sekiro. Which Tenchu plays nothing like Souls either originally & is where the stealth n tools gameplay came from for Sekiro. Yeah Sekiro is also diff from reg souls the most out their current titles but not by a gigantic margin, its enemy design, level design & boss design is still very much souls based while the gameplay is Tenchu x Souls with its own spin.

    Not unrealistic. Its the formula the whole current company is used too & all their systems are built for.

    Not hard to make AC a bit more action focused, theres rumors already that its having way more melee focused instead of just a back up button. Only difference would be sorting out more of a modern shooting mechanic along with it, which Remnant From the Ashes exists already so not impossible.

    Give it crazy bosses with more of souls-y camera n layout + structured levels n its own twist then boom, "robot/scifi souls".

    Which people have been begging for a good sci-fi souls game to come out. Would be a win-win for the company.

    Who knows, but not out of the realm.

    I think a lot of people have played a pre-demons souls FS game without realizing it tbh.

    Most of the pre demons FS games i played i rented like various Armored Core, Tenchu n Shadow Tower while only a few I actually own/owned but didnt know it was them such as Chromehounds & Otogi.

    Theres even so much more original IP than just those they made too like turned based rpgs, anime adventure games, horror games, various exclusive contracted to Nintendo, Sony n Microsoft, n rando games they did that were published by Sega, Atlus etc. when they couldnt self publish or have an exclusive publish.

    Even did a few licensed games as well, but they were going broke & most their games didnt catch at all. Only Tenchu, Otogi & Armored Core would keep the lights on but barely, until Demons Souls which saved the company & turned them into superstars when before they were scrounging n were seen as a B-list developer.

    Which is also why I dont think they'll give up the Souls formula completely anytime soon on a AAA scale, i can see the most is that it'll be loosely there like Sekrio n potentially the upcoming AC, but we'll see when it comes out.

    Damn well I PRAY they don’t change it that drastically. I get that sekiro was a tenchu x dark souls crossover but that wasn’t such a big jump IMO compared to making AC more soulslike

    Crazy they’re calling it VI given both how long it’s been and how much bigger FromSoft is since the last.

    You’d think they drop the numbers since a ton of new people will be playing the series for the first time.

    I respect that they respect longtime fans of the series

    It’s a miss kenig there's a reason from abandoned this for souls games. They just arent in the same league as souls games.

    These are like b tier games where souls is s tier

    Old Armored Core gameplay looks like not my kind of thing at all, but I genuinely think they'll have revamped the gameplay a fair amount this time based on what they've learned with the Souls series

    Yeah I’m hella confused because I fw the armored core gameplay from the past and it’s way different from soulsborne games, and idk what they “learned” from them that they can use in AC.

    On one hand I’m interested to see how they evolve souls gameplay again like they did with sekiro but on the other hand I really miss AC combat and would love to see a modern advanced version of it

    People might be taking it a little too literally.

    They could be talking about level and boss design for instance. It doesn’t mean they’ll be throwing some variation of bonfires and s*** in the game.
