    I’m surprised so many say they never heard about it. It was all over the place when a gameplay trailer was shown a few years ago. David Jaffe even made a video about how he didn’t understand the hype, and then took it all back once the trailer reached the boss fight.

      I mean I saw it, but it immediately got filed under “Just another pretty-in-renders soulsy clone”. There are so many thousands of them, they’re just some background buzz in game releases.

      And I’ll readily admit, I don’t even know whether it is a soulslike, and neither do I care to find out. That’s how invisible this game is when you scroll past it, as it immediately mascerades as a game in an ocean of utterly samey titles.

      I enjoy a lot of games but don’t follow IGN or similar outlets. I did pay attention to e3 when it happened but that’s no longer a thing. My news comes mostly from steam store/Lemmy gaming communities/memes Meaning I’ve never hear of it either until I saw Dunkey’s satire video.

      I’ve never heard of it. But we all live in our own spheres
