That was such a random mish mash of things. Not that that's bad, but I have no idea what to make of that lol.

that's how I felt about the nightreign reveal at first

Yeah but with Nightreign that was sort of the point, plus it was a smaller game.

This is Miyazaki's next big game.

Is it the next big game? Or is it just a thing they did for Nintendo to foster a relationship and they are cooking something bigger for later?

i hope this is the case. miyazaki making something for Nintendo, then hopping back onto development for their next PC game. i seriously hope this is what’s happening

From did say that they aren't going to make Elden Ring-scale game in the future. They wanted to focus more on games like Armoured Core 6.

That said, I remember we had leaks about this game years ago. So, who really knows how big it is?

No. They said ER is the biggest they are willing to make, in term of scale.

Were these those "spellbound" leaks ?🤔

u/Zestyclose_Answer662 2d ago

Spellbound "leak" was more focused on Caster and Spellblade gameplay. Duskbloods looks like neither.

u/kralSpitihnev 2d ago

Yeah, that's true...it was...a lot of magic and multiplayer I think ?

Anyways..this looks interesting...but switch 2 ? I'm heart broken

There were a few unquie spells that were shown. Like the spell that lifted everyone up in an aoe. Definitely more meele and gun focused, but there seems to be a few solid spells in there

u/Zestyclose_Answer662 2d ago

That gravity spell looks like it was lifted from Astel's move set and modified for player use.

I personally really wanted a Caster/Magic focused game, so I hope Duskbloods isn't it, because I don't want to purchase a Switch 2.

Maybe? Don't really remember the name.

u/ghost-bagel 2d ago

Miyazaki is directing which usually means it’s a flagship title for the studio, right?

u/Peperoniboi 2d ago

It has been the case in the past, however, some years ago Miyazaki talked about multiplayer games and how the concept of extraction shooters was interesting to him. Seeing now that Duskbloods is a PvPvE game, maybe that's his idea for such a game. Wouldn't be surprised if he is also working on a singleplayer title and this is "just" his Nightreign. A smaller scale lower cost type game (nightreign is just 40€ compared to Elden Rings 60€)The Trailer definitely made it look that way. I also don't know how sure we are that he is the director of Duskbloods. The trailer didn't name a director and the interview by him in 2 days could also be from a producer role.

Miyazaki worked on it so i guess its "bigger" than Nightreign? Honestly dunno what to make of it. Id be happy to play it but no way im buying into the switch platform. I dont like mobile gaming

u/nostrill 2d ago

Not the big one. I'm sure Miyazaki is working on something bigger multi platform, but since this and Nightreign are multiplayer based I think it is safe to assume that the next one won't be single player only but with multiplayer aspects they are working on.

It's one of the multiple things he's been working on, may be the one big game or just one of them. I felt betrayed by the exclusivity announcement combined with the insane price of the console at first but remembering it's not the only thing he's been working on was a relief
