Sekiro was the game that convinced me that they cannot miss. They tried something completely different from souls, and they made one of the best games of all time, even got the GOTY. I'll buy anything they make, I don't care about the genre
I think that From is different from CDPR because instead of having 1 big masterpiece under their belt, From now has more than 5 in the last decade. Also From is so good and big now that they single handily brought back the Mecha genre from the brink of death with AC6
I would say CDPR has more than one also, and the success of TW III is not matched even by ER. Wild Hunt has 50 million copies sold, 50. Even Cyberpunk 2077 ( which is a fantastic game today despite the launch ) has sold 25 million copies, more than Elden Ring.
And also, fromsoftware is a closed company. Meaning only a few shareholders to considers. Katokawa have like 60% and then sony-tencent like 30%, the rest of 10% is for my miscalculation. So there's a lot less corporate drama to consider for the creative team.
5 REASONS IMHO : 1. NO scandals. 2. The Miyazaki "total direction" policy 3. Always making new IPs & not milking franchises for endless sequels. 4. NO greed/microtransactions. 5. Actually respect their fans.
The best developer in the industry at the moment. Larian or Insomniac are fantastic also but FROM’s output is insane. Look at the games they have released since 2009. No cheap pre-orders, no season pass, no copy and pasted sequels or reboots - just quality games.
Ac 6 was never meant to be another soul games and to show the game community another masterpiece. AC6 was Fromsoft genuine gratitude to the fan base that has been supporting them since the beginning and was a good break from all the lore and myth that they have built in their soul and elden ring universe. AC6 is here is a mech and go fuck up some shit LOL
Sekiro actually started out development as a tenchu sequel (first 3D stealth game back in 98). I really like Sekiro but I wish they would release a genuine tenchu game. One of the greatest game series (mainly the first 2 games) of all time imo. But Sekiro needs a sequel too
@upper_case_T Tenchu has gotten the shaft ever since ps2 days. Some people liked Wrath of Heaven but it was a game that forgot T2 exists. T4 was decent, mainly cause Acquire, the original devs, made it, but it was a wii game. Not the optimal platform for a Tenchu title. Especially since they didn't even know you could use a regular controller on it. I just hope the series isn't dead. It had so much potential.
@golDroger88 Maybe that was true in the ps1/ps2 era, and to a lesser degree, the ps3 era. But for the most part, besides soulsbourne games, the only new ideas we've really gotten over the past 20 years are online passes, micro transactions, walking simulators, and the casualization of gaming in general. Its why we have a whole generation of gamers who think story is what makes games good. There will always be room in the market for a new ninja stealth game. If it wasn't tenchu, it'd be a tenchu ripoff.
@@napalmsanctuaryx4129Well I guess we have a different interpretation of the word "new". For me Bloodborne, Sekiro, Deracine are "new". Basically I don't want sequels over sequels of games, I new ips, I want what the developer wants to make.
I just watched a grown man glaze a video game company for approximately fifteen minutes. Seriously. Just discovering how amazing these games are. Just got my Xbox last Christmas and am learning what is good and what I like. I like From Soft
Given how mediocre games are now, FromSoftware is the only AAA studio I trust. It’s so sad how major studios bend to the knees of the consumer as opposed to delivering quality As far as CDPR, they’re a decent company but not like Software. You can’t judge the former based off of three games as opposed to the latter which has Bloodborne, Sekiro , Dark Souls 1 and 3, and Elden Ring…..not to mention the expansion packs for both as well as the upcoming Elden Ring expansion
I had never played armored core before but I decided to preorder it cuz it was a fromsoft game. I ended up seeing a small glimmer of bb through its fast paced action. Very enjoyable and underrated in my opinion.
I've been with FromSoft games since my brother imported Demon's Souls from South Korea. At the same time, I've yet to complete Dark Souls... while none of their games have been a "miss," there's something to be said about how dynamic and varied the stories they tell are and even the gameplay of a "soulsborne" game can be. It has taken other companies a decade to get even close to the formula, and still they're a decade behind in some dimension, such as the hand-crafted feel of every encounter. Elden Ring felt like a Final Fantasy 7 level of mastery... and I can't wait for the DLC.
Fromsoft is my new favorite company ever since square Enix has been going downhill recently imo, fromsoft has never changed their ideals on what a game should be, and I admire that.
don't hit me in the 30fps bloodborne feels like that man.... fr tho From is one of only two gaming companies i trust anymore and that's absolutely thanks to their dedication to the players and the game that they've cultivated such a steadfast adoration and respect from their community (also you joke about being a grown ass man gushing over nerd shit for like 15 minutes and all but i mean c'mon, that why we're here)
Fromsoft will continue to be a top tier developer as long as Miyazaki is at the helm. He is the very soul of FromSoftware and I doubt the company would survive without him.
dont get too hung up on miyazaki sensei, i love and admire the dude to death and i even look up to his life's philosophies, but the ppl hes been training and working with are no slouches.
As much as FromSoftware is great having the Miyazaki touch is just a whole higher level. Dark Souls 2 felt more like King's Field and Shadow Tower style, games before the Miyazaki Era which started with Demon's Souls.
They were always my favorite studio, as a huge mecha fan since I was a kid, in a sea of mecha games and anime back then, Armored Core was always a league on it's own and really all their game series have something unique to them. Love your videos man, really nice one once again, I like listening to grown men gushing about vidya companies for 15 mins.
Forgot to mention CDPR's deceptive cracks showing with The Witcher 3 with how they downgraded the graphics on release. False advertising bait and switch tactics. It was still a great game but...
I pre ordered elden ring collectors edition. First time i ever spent that much on a game (first ever collectors edition i bought) and it was worth it! Fromsoft to me never disappoints (i mean some things can be better. But out of all thw game studios i know they actually care about the games they make, unlike Bethesda or any other company.) Hell i even love ds2, its one of my favorites.
I’m gonna be perfectly honest and say without any irony I don’t think they will ever mess up as bad as CDPR. I’ve been playing their games since PS1 and while there have been some flops like Ninja Blade and admittedly some questionable work ethics they’ve really been firing on all cylinders for so long.
I think From Software, Capcom, and Square Enix are the last truly good AAA companies left. Even though I am not sure about those other two. But From Software hasn't really released a truly awful game that ruined their reputation. Almost everything since 2009 besides Steel Battalion has been highly critically recieved amd fam response has been great.
Ik where you're coming from saying they will mess up and I would agree in normal cases. But I'm guessing you haven't lived around Japanese people much to have a comprehensive perspective of the potential sense of commitment and discipline exercised in their culture. In Japan, you will get a free pre-cooked burger if you order one and ask the vendor to warm it up and the forget make it verbally clear that now they will open the plastic wrapping in order to warm it up.
Being Japanese doesn't exclude them from the possibility of failure. Anything coming from the Pokemon Series, Forspoken and Babylons Fall are some recent examples of japanese devs/companies absolutely missing the mark or being lead by the prospect of money. There are many things to admire when it comes to japanese culture, but they are also just human at the end of the day!
I think that there were a number of issues that CDPR faced after Wild Hunt. One of the bigger ones was that they simply grew way to big, way to fast. The only other issue that I I’m more confident in the knowledge I have, is that there was a sudden and massive employment of middle management. (Which IMO can be just as destructive if not more harmful to the companies PR towards their fan base and the games made than out of touch managers are.)
I'm not sure about the consistency part. FromSoft wasn't that consistent as you say. They only started getting proper attention after DS3, and even then they weren't that popular. Don't forget that Witcher 3 sold 50 million copies. I would only call Sekiro and ER as top tier quality. Every FromSoft game has its problems, even my favourite, DS3, and I can see it and admit it. CDPR was considered great devs not just because they released Witcher 3. They were really in touch with the community, and they weren't in it for the money, frequently selling the games dirt cheap or outright giving it away. From my perspective there were a lot of factors contributing to CDPRs public image. But that said, I'll admit the game contributed the most, but perhaps not the majority. But I wish you talked about all the other things that they've done. That's why CP'77 received so much backlash, because people thought CDPR was infallible. I hope they get everything sorted out. And I hope FromSoft doesn't fuck up.
Nah. CDPR puts out quality stuff. The things they are good at, they do better than everyone else. I even love the witcher 2, but let's not act like their games are not janky bugfests.
i'm a covenants lover, that's what's been missing since launch. To answer your question - I'd call myself a clown BB fanboy, sure. Call me a DS2 apologist on top of that :D
great video i just have to say. after playing all souls games except demons souls i am afraid that elden ring is the pinacle and we are not getting any better from fromsoft then this the development cycle is at its end. but who knows, sekiro suprised me huge, just as bloodborne and elden ring
Blizzard my former favorite has continously broken my heart the past few years through their new emphasis on greed. Rockstar have become way too lazy and just milking their fan base through GTA. CD Projekt Red so far has 1 stain on their resume (which to no surprise ff one bad practice of other game companies) but did bounced back and rectify the mistake, but still the full trust was shattered a little bit. Bethesda is relying on Elder Scrolls reputation particularly Skyrim and just releasing the same games with the new ones being worse than the old ones (true masterpieces) without anything new and just lacks inspiration, their games are so glitchy too. From Software has yet to shake my faith, bangers after bangers of releases, hope their streak continues and may the forces of greed never influence their games.
10 years of experience in a game 🤧🤕😷😴😮 I think in my comments i've been "consistent" enough for a Fromsoft metric and what not. :D Don't shoot me sheriff!! keep up the good work tbh. 10:52 fucking took you long enough, thee hee.
Good video. I got my start around the time Dark Souls 1 launched. I have watched FROM go from AA to AAA. I believe the point they leveled up was with bloodborne honestly. I actually like their games for the unique PVP the most. My entire channel is based around it. I believe the success has warped them for the worst. Big games like Elden Ring just don't feel the same. I always wanted them to make Dark Souls 1, but bigger, and finished. That is all I have wanted from them for years. But instead they went the casual Skyrim route. Sucks. Elden Ring is still great but it could have been better if it was just big Dark Souls 1.
CD projects games were mid and eiple waited for masterpiece worth a century they only done mid third person and fps games with mid stories. What were they really waiting from an inexperienced development company after all they are not kojima to carry the whole game.
I found you quite unfair against cd project red, even tho I agree with you about from software, elden ring's a masterpiece. It's easy to forget how much of a mess was the witcher 3 when it came out, and I think cyberpunk's issues are balanced by the heart cd put in the project. The environnement is beautiful, the story is great, the characters are amazing, and I can't help feeling a bit sad when people think that it's amoung the worst game released in the lasts years, cause, have you played ubisofts games lately ? Did you tried starfield ? Cyberpunk's honestly better and way more pleasant to play then those lazy ass games with repetitive gameplays and boring stories. I understand you needed a really disapointing released to make a point, and I get it, it was very underwhelming, but I'd be glad to live in a world were cberpunk's actually the worst AAA game out there, cause lately, most of those games are shite and just wants our money. Yes, I love elden ring, yes, I love cyberpunk 2077, and yes we exist. Anyway, interesting video tho, I hope I ain't a borig fuck and that my comment helps you with the SEO. Have good one mate !
It's true that I was a bit harsh, this was mostly for the purpose of supporting my argument. CDPRs Situation was just a great example for me to put up against Froms success, but I really could have talked about any of the other big companies failings. I've actually been waiting to play Cyberpunk until it was in a good state, as I have tried it on release and just kinda put it down lol... Excited to try to get back into it tho!
you can lead a horse to water but you can't take the circlejerk out of a dark souls fan, the success of the souls series has been due to GamersTM autofellating themselves over "beating difficult games" rather than any intrinsic value, even ER was a trash fire that succeeded due to a self-fulfilling prophecy hopefully we go back to another decade of armored core because that's a franchise with actual value and merit
Yes let's just ignore the world building, the level designs, the fascinating characters, the responsive combat, the build variety, the fantastic aesthetics, the hauntingly beautiful music, etc. The souls games definitely has nothing but difficulty to offer. -_-
the fascinating characters and worldbuilding (hidden behind esoteric and arbitrary questlines), the "build variety" that depends on vague or unexplained systems and boils down to which flavor of sword you want to use... the aesthetics of the world was one of the only things ER does well and hey, guess what, it's directly tied to a broken half-baked open world and experiencing it is the only joy to be had in the game. at least we agree on one thing
@@ruludos1977 the obscurity of the lore and the subtle details are why so many people are fascinated and enamoured in the first place. Let's ignore very other weapon types, magic, consumables, stats, etc. eh. if you do that, Armored Core is also just which flavour of guns you want to use. Hear how dumb it sounds? Broken half-baked open world LMAO. Did we play the same game? Elden Ring has one of if not the most intricately and carefully crafted open world out there with many details and secrets. Your take is just garbage
Oh please... Quit being so negative. I'm sure you will get some more armored core soon. It is actually possible to love both souls, sekiro, Bloodborne And armored core. No need to fight over which is the better since they are so different, but come from the same studio.. Im sure one wouldnt be better without the other. And I believe they will continue to create both armored core, souls games and a 3rd different IP (like sekiro was). So everybody will be satisfied, especially the ones who knows how to love them all for different reasons.
I've played dark souls 3, sekiro, and Elden ring. Elden and sekiro are the only fromsoft games I've ever owned, and elden ring is the first from fromsoft I've played and didn't quit immediately. Amazing games but not knowin what to do, where 2 go, or how to build a Character kinda pushed me away from them, but the elden ring community is absolutely amazing. Only got 1 playthrough goin rn and I'm about to hit lvl 80, only boss I killed myself was that b1ch tree sentinel. Talk about cvnts 😂
CDPR gone Woke so I wouldn't count on anything. Fromsoft kinda not but that "open world" policy in ER?, eh. 🍇🍈🍉🍊🍋🍍🍌🥭🍆🥥🍒🫐 less is more and let's dlc. drugiego wiczera nie bedzie. don't count on W1 remake either.
Sekiro was the game that convinced me that they cannot miss. They tried something completely different from souls, and they made one of the best games of all time, even got the GOTY. I'll buy anything they make, I don't care about the genre
Facts, same here 💯😎🙏😭
For myself Fromsoft is the only company I'll consider preordering from due to their track record of good games.
Honestly, same. While pre-ordering is bad in general, if I've liked almost all of the games a studio has made, I don't mind taking the gamble.
@@upper_case_T a grown man who glazed a video game company for about 15 minutes just unlocked his gambling addiction
ME TOO
Yeah I pre-rodered AC6 without knowing anything about the franchise. And I'm very glad I did it! Easily my personal GOTY.
What about gunfire games? Gearbox?
I think that From is different from CDPR because instead of having 1 big masterpiece under their belt, From now has more than 5 in the last decade. Also From is so good and big now that they single handily brought back the Mecha genre from the brink of death with AC6
Also the big difference is fromsoft doesn't follow the popular things unlike cdpr who made open world and (secretly) competing rockstar games
I would say CDPR has more than one also, and the success of TW III is not matched even by ER. Wild Hunt has 50 million copies sold, 50. Even Cyberpunk 2077 ( which is a fantastic game today despite the launch ) has sold 25 million copies, more than Elden Ring.
And also, fromsoftware is a closed company. Meaning only a few shareholders to considers. Katokawa have like 60% and then sony-tencent like 30%, the rest of 10% is for my miscalculation.
So there's a lot less corporate drama to consider for the creative team.
@@TunaStrata majority Share is owned by Katokawa, which who aren’t the og owners but bought it around the time Miyazaki became president
@@highlord2841 yeah, thats the company name. And thank you for the explaination of katokawa.
5 REASONS IMHO :
1. NO scandals.
2. The Miyazaki "total direction" policy
3. Always making new IPs & not milking franchises for endless sequels.
4. NO greed/microtransactions.
5. Actually respect their fans.
The best developer in the industry at the moment. Larian or Insomniac are fantastic also but FROM’s output is insane. Look at the games they have released since 2009. No cheap pre-orders, no season pass, no copy and pasted sequels or reboots - just quality games.
Insomniac just realised SpooderMan 2 and it's not good
They do have season passes, but the DLCs that come with them are usually worth it!
@@MaidenlessScrub How the fuck it's not good?
@@henrryeaeaea poor pacing, snooze fest side contents, badly written characters and a rushed story, etc.
I used to think insomniac can't miss, until they released spidermid 2.
From have been the best developer in gaming for an entire decade now, with no signs of stopping
My favourite of all time
I came in for the difficulty, but stayed for the best gaming experiences. Great video!
Ac 6 was never meant to be another soul games and to show the game community another masterpiece.

T4 was decent, mainly cause Acquire, the original devs, made it, but it was a wii game. Not the optimal platform for a Tenchu title. Especially since they didn't even know you could use a regular controller on it. I just hope the series isn't dead. It had so much potential.
No and no. New ideas are better than old soup.
@golDroger88 Maybe that was true in the ps1/ps2 era, and to a lesser degree, the ps3 era.

There will always be room in the market for a new ninja stealth game. If it wasn't tenchu, it'd be a tenchu ripoff.

One of the very few companies we can rely on for consistent care and quality standards. The polar opposite of studios such as Bethesda
The Soulslikes never really clicked with me though I do admire how far they got with it.
That's totally fine, and the good thing is that I expect them to make a lot of different types of games now
Lmao you must be dumb

I had never played armored core before but I decided to preorder it cuz it was a fromsoft game. I ended up seeing a small glimmer of bb through its fast paced action. Very enjoyable and underrated in my opinion.
Everyday I dream about a new Sekiro-like game.
CDPR made it right with Cyberpunk and as of 2,3 updates ago, the game is a masterpiece. They also gave us an anime, which is great.
the only thing is, it took them 4 years.

Didn’t even mention the adventures of Cooke and cream
If only From make GTA like game and remove all hackers and greedy grinding schemes.
I pray that the Cyberpunk 2077 is the Dark Souls 2 of CDPR 😂
I definitely think that they have (or rather the higher ups) learned their lesson, I think their next game will release in a better state.
Fromsoftware is way better than CDPR for 20 years now.

Elden Ring is still great but it could have been better if it was just big Dark Souls 1.
Nah I like ER way more than DS1. Each has his own taste
CD projects games were mid and eiple waited for masterpiece worth a century they only done mid third person and fps games with mid stories. What were they really waiting from an inexperienced development company after all they are not kojima to carry the whole game.
and btw what's this fruity title?
^ just for lolz, inshallah.
I found you quite unfair against cd project red, even tho I agree with you about from software, elden ring's a masterpiece. It's easy to forget how much of a mess was the witcher 3 when it came out, and I think cyberpunk's issues are balanced by the heart cd put in the project. The environnement is beautiful, the story is great, the characters are amazing, and I can't help feeling a bit sad when people think that it's amoung the worst game released in the lasts years, cause, have you played ubisofts games lately ? Did you tried starfield ? Cyberpunk's honestly better and way more pleasant to play then those lazy ass games with repetitive gameplays and boring stories. I understand you needed a really disapointing released to make a point, and I get it, it was very underwhelming, but I'd be glad to live in a world were cberpunk's actually the worst AAA game out there, cause lately, most of those games are shite and just wants our money.
Yes, I love elden ring, yes, I love cyberpunk 2077, and yes we exist.
Anyway, interesting video tho, I hope I ain't a borig fuck and that my comment helps you with the SEO. Have good one mate !
It's true that I was a bit harsh, this was mostly for the purpose of supporting my argument. CDPRs Situation was just a great example for me to put up against Froms success, but I really could have talked about any of the other big companies failings. I've actually been waiting to play Cyberpunk until it was in a good state, as I have tried it on release and just kinda put it down lol... Excited to try to get back into it tho!
Cyberpunk still sucks ass
No amount of bug fixes can fix this game
It was built from ground up broken
Masterpieces with a huge flaw: Invasions.
you can lead a horse to water but you can't take the circlejerk out of a dark souls fan, the success of the souls series has been due to GamersTM autofellating themselves over "beating difficult games" rather than any intrinsic value, even ER was a trash fire that succeeded due to a self-fulfilling prophecy
hopefully we go back to another decade of armored core because that's a franchise with actual value and merit
Yes let's just ignore the world building, the level designs, the fascinating characters, the responsive combat, the build variety, the fantastic aesthetics, the hauntingly beautiful music, etc. The souls games definitely has nothing but difficulty to offer. -_-
the fascinating characters and worldbuilding (hidden behind esoteric and arbitrary questlines), the "build variety" that depends on vague or unexplained systems and boils down to which flavor of sword you want to use...
the aesthetics of the world was one of the only things ER does well and hey, guess what, it's directly tied to a broken half-baked open world and experiencing it is the only joy to be had in the game. at least we agree on one thing
@@ruludos1977 the obscurity of the lore and the subtle details are why so many people are fascinated and enamoured in the first place. Let's ignore very other weapon types, magic, consumables, stats, etc. eh. if you do that, Armored Core is also just which flavour of guns you want to use. Hear how dumb it sounds?
Broken half-baked open world LMAO. Did we play the same game? Elden Ring has one of if not the most intricately and carefully crafted open world out there with many details and secrets. Your take is just garbage
this all coming from an ER fanboy account lmao, keep coping
Oh please... Quit being so negative. I'm sure you will get some more armored core soon. It is actually possible to love both souls, sekiro, Bloodborne And armored core. No need to fight over which is the better since they are so different, but come from the same studio.. Im sure one wouldnt be better without the other. And I believe they will continue to create both armored core, souls games and a 3rd different IP (like sekiro was). So everybody will be satisfied, especially the ones who knows how to love them all for different reasons.
I've played dark souls 3, sekiro, and Elden ring. Elden and sekiro are the only fromsoft games I've ever owned, and elden ring is the first from fromsoft I've played and didn't quit immediately. Amazing games but not knowin what to do, where 2 go, or how to build a Character kinda pushed me away from them, but the elden ring community is absolutely amazing. Only got 1 playthrough goin rn and I'm about to hit lvl 80, only boss I killed myself was that b1ch tree sentinel. Talk about cvnts 😂
bloodborne is everybodys fav game? i would say that about elden or dark souls, bb not really though.
CDPR gone Woke so I wouldn't count on anything. Fromsoft kinda not but that "open world" policy in ER?, eh. 🍇🍈🍉🍊🍋🍍🍌🥭🍆🥥🍒🫐
less is more and let's dlc.
drugiego wiczera nie bedzie. don't count on W1 remake either.
I just watched a grown man worship the c**k and balls of a videogame company for over 10 minutes. Worth.
