Holy shit this looks amazing!

Nice thread by the way. I would love a Souls game in a Nordic/viking setting. Feudal Japan would be awesome as well.

Bolded: That's pretty much Nioh isn't it?

OT: Ancient Mexican (Aztec) gods required sacrifices to mantain their power, so dying over and over again could be turned into an interesting game mechanic/lore element in such game.
