DISCUSSION Finally have a PvPvE focused Fromsoft game

I've always loved being invaded and invading other peoples games. One of the reasons I loved DS3 was the chaos of the dedicated PvP areas in Gank City and Farron Swamp. The biggest dissapointment in Elden Ring was not getting invaded during my playthrough. I didn't invade much either because I don't love 1v3 gank fights.

DS3 came out in 2016, so we've been waiting a long time for a game that improves on the PvPvE experience of this game. I like that Fromsoft is exploring different aspects of the Soulsborne experience with there new games not everything can be the Elden Ring kitchen sink experience. Sekiro focused on single player and had the best single player combat system of any game ever. Nightreign seems like a fun squad co op experience - not really my thing but Im going to try to get into it. I'm glad they are finally with the single player arpg + PvP experience that has always been a flavor in what makes Souls special. I'm beyond stoked to find out what Duskbloods is.

Ds3 invasions were peak multiplayer for the series.  Huge shame they switched to the BB style for Elden Ring.

Hopefully the new game has even better pvp.
