| JGarret said: In a way, they helped, I guess, but the credit goes largely to From themselves. Of all the new IPs that were created in the last gen, Souls is my favorite one, and with the downfall of so many Japanese developers that used to be on top of the hill up until the 6th gen, From Software (along with Platinum) have become my favorite Japanese 3rd party developer. And I also enjoyed 3D Dot Game Heroes quite a lot. |
I forgot about 3D Dot Game Heroes. That was actually developed by Silicon Studios and published by From Software in Japan, published by Atlus in the west. Silicon Studios also developed Bravely Default and is developing Bravely Default 2. If there's a dev that a company like Square, From, Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft, etc, should purchase, I'd say it's this one. They've released two great games and are slowly becoming a recognized developer. Buy them before they're too well known and popular to reap the benefits at the lowest cost possible.
