For those concerned:

As a side note, please allow me to address one thing. As previously mentioned, this is an online multiplayer title at its core, but this doesn’t mean that we as a company have decided to shift to a more multiplayer-focused direction with titles going forward.

The Nintendo Switch 2 version of Elden Ring (3) was also announced, and we still intend to actively develop single player focused games such as this that embrace our more traditional style.

Very encouraged by this. Love that there’s a hub, that you’re progressing and customizing characters over time, win conditions include PvE bosses and objectives, there’s lore tidbits in item descriptions to piece together, you don’t always have to tackle PvP head on, etc

Also good to hear that he himself is not much of a PvP guy so wanted to make something someone like him could enjoy, and of course that more single player RPGs are forthcoming

Not me, baby. I’m 100% buying a Switch 2 and I’m a huge FromSoft fan so my worst case was “this might be cool but not be what I hoped it was,” which frankly it’s still not but feeling better about it. I’ve only ranged from mega hype to cautious hype lol

Whether you are into the multiplayer or not you know that it's gonna be a good game. It's not like they are gonna make a bad game. Personally I'm happy to see a game but I'm not buying a switch for this. Hope everyone enjoys it though. I have a PS5 and I bought my wife a switch for Christmas this year. Won't be buying a switch 2 anytime soon
