So my excitement for the game is justified. I saw the first gameplay and I was really impressed.
Good Job SantaMonica and Cory Balrog.
I hope they will do a new IP (RPG) because I am seeing potential for SM to make a wonderful RPG.

No. Does everyone have to make an RPG? I like this linear open hub world bloodborne approach to games more so than i like the vast open wprld of an RPG. There is more intimacy and familiarity with these smaller worlds than the endless filler you see in these vast open worlds, all od which at some point you spend the bulk of your time fast travelling.

And as far as I am concerned, this GOW is pretty much a new IP. Outside Kratos as a chracter (aka as player avatar) there isn't a single thing tying it to the previous games. There isn't even a jump button. If this weren't called GOW people would see this as a new IP.

I like RPGs and not all RPGs should be Open world so whatever man. Different strokes for different folks I guess.
