Ahead of the debut of Elden Ring: Shadow of the Erdtreewhich also positively impressed our Domenico Musicò in the complete video review, we decided to chat with you about the FromSoftware’s greatest hitsthat gives Demon’s Souls onwards he found a very effective and unique stylistic code, to the point that many people try to imitate his action RPGs.
And although Elden Ring is universally considered the maximum peak of awareness for the team Hidetaka Miyazakiopen world fantasy isn’t necessarily the most loved regardless: we also talked about it in an in-depth article some time ago.
Considering that even for Miyazaki there are other games that have a special place in his heart, we have it asked directly to you: what is the success of FromSoftware which do you think is the best game, also considering the context in which it was released?
FromSoftware’s best game, in your opinion
In the survey, in which many of you participated (over 2,500 votes gathered in the hours in which it was possible to express themselves), there was a mini plebiscite for Bloodbornewhich thanks to its dark gothic atmosphere (and in the hope of seeing it return, whether with a renewal, a PC port or a sequel) has remained in everyone’s hearts.
It was following him closely (so to speak). Elden Ringwhile the ruthless closes the podium Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice.
However, the great classics, such as the three, are more detached Dark Souls (with the first being the most loved) and the progenitor Demon’s Soulswhich was recently resurrected at the launch of the PS5.
The percentage of preferences was this:
- Bloodborne – 35%
- Elden Ring – 24%
- Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice – 19%
- Dark Souls – 10%
- Dark Souls III – 9%
- Demon’s Souls – 2%
- Dark Souls II – 1%
Bloodborne in short, he is followed by two titles that also triumphed at The Game Awards, but – a bit like his protagonist – he didn’t let himself be too impressed and triumphed with detachment.
Released in 2015, the game put us in the shoes of the Hunter, a character of our own creation who had to adventure through the decadent and dark city of Yharnam.
Waiting for him on his journey, however, were very dangerous (and majestic) creatures, in a gameplay experience severe but never unbalancedable to hypnotize even those who are not usually accustomed to titles that focus so much on challenge.
