"It's going to be Dark Souls.. with open world"
What the fuck does From Soft mean by this? The whole appeal of Dark Souls was in its semi-linear level design.

It means
>Souls-like combat
>bonfire-like restoration point
>1 currency for practically everything that drops when you die but can be regained if you get to that death point or kill the monster
>big badass bosses
>story told through the in game lore and scenery rather than cut scenes
Except this time it's fully open world.

They already proved with Suckiro that they have no clue what made DS and BB great. They will fuck this up for sure. Open world ruins the entire atmosphere of a typical From game.

>bonfire-like restoration point
The problem already starts there. Open worlds are HUUUUGE. So how does that work well with a game where you die a lot? Nobody wants to travel a vast distance just to die to some BS and then have to travel a vast distance AGAIN.
So either they put in tons of teleportation points to every relevant part of the game (which kinda defeats the entire purpose of having a large open world) or they start you off right where you died which makes death less punishing and thus the entire game will feel less threatening to you.
