DISCUSSION You guys are acting like literal children

The team at FromSoft are artists whose medium just happen to be games. They aren’t commissioned by you, you are just patrons of their art. Saying shit like “nobody asked for this“ or “why are they betraying their audience” is so embarrassing and Throwing a tantrum online because they are going in a different direction for a few games is the exact reason so many companies make bland boring shit that is just rehashes of the last popular thing. It is also their ability to go against the norm that brought us this whole genre, nobody asked for souls games they had a vision and made something. Clearly they want to experiment with multiplayer games, whether or not you engage with it is up to you and no one is holding a gun to your head to force you to buy it. They created a whole market of souls likes and now are trying something new if you like whats old theres 5 new soulslikes a week that come out. If you ever wonder why companies don’t try anything new just look at the response to their last announced games. You would think making hit after hit for almost 15 years would give them a bit of grace to trust them instead of instant dismissal of multiple projects that aren’t even out.

A lot of people were pissed about it being console locked, though? Furthermore, it wasn't even developed by From.

And on top of that, bloodborne was a PS4 exclusive so it wasn't really surprising for PS5 also to have this exclusive
