Eh, naw not really, depending on the franchise the japanese are still far ahead. Look at Yokai Watch for instance or the Musou series and all its spinoffs. Pokemon as well.

You stop that right now, you heathen.

Maybe once Gamefreak stops milking Pokemon :P

seems fake honestly. but DS3 is all but confirmed now. guess the souls type of games will be milked from now on. i know bloodborne is a new IP, but it has similarities with the souls series and it is done by the same dev.


I think of them as siblings. I don't think it would be released in 2016 though. It seems too soon but who knows. It wouldn't surprise me if other companies might create some "souls" clones.

I wonder how well this sub-genre is going to hold up. Between a fair few imitators popping up recently and now the main studio who developed it working overtime,

Gonna be interesting to see. It's been going from strength to strength, so we'll have to see.

... outside of Lords of the Fallen who else is imitating?? I havent seen any others myself.

Pokemon isn't milked. It's consistant.

Even if Gen 6 is the weakest new generation thus far. :x

Well if you think about it one really doesn't have to be too surprised about the japanese milking their games, they really got some experts for that over there.
I think Dark Souls and Bloodborne alternating would kinda be pushing it but would still be at the edge of acceptability.


Western devolopers milked their franchises by far more

Eh, naw not really, depending on the franchise the japanese are still far ahead. Look at Yokai Watch for instance or the Musou series and all its spinoffs. Pokemon as well.

Yeah but mosou is more like a different genre, its like saying westerners are milking ego shooters for example

Well, what came to mind was stuff like Lords of Fallen; Bound by Flame; Salt & Sanctuary.  And I'd argue stuff like Dragon's Dogma was definitely influenced by it if we were getting into that too (plus Deep Down, if that ever materializes).

On top of the fact that we've had Dark Souls 2 port; Bloodbourne and now Dark Souls 3 all potentially within a year.



Dark Souls 3 in 2016 so that Bloodborne 2 can come out in 2018 but people don't feel a 3 year gap.

Can a studio really release a game every year and it lives up to the quality that a AAA game should be? CoD only survives as an annual franchise because there were 2 studios alternating, which means a 2 year cycle. Now there are 3 studios right? So that means each game gets a 3 year gestation. if From wants annual releases then they need 2 separate dev teams. Fifa survives because its soccer and how different can soccer be from one year to the next? Same with MLB and other sports franchises.

From has 227 employees. That's enought to divide into two team and work on a 2-3 year cycle. 



I hope its real. We will find out Monday though
