Is it technically part of that universe? I thought they were going in a different direction with this one.
It looks neat, but I'm probably not going to buy it anyway. Though I am excited for the release, because it looks like that will mean a new Armored Core will be announced :3
The game play is practically identical with a couple added mechanics (similar to how 3 added weapon arts); jump attacks, guard counters, and summoning ash. And of course estus is called something else now but it is functionally identical including the upgrade process. Souls are identical too, they're just called runes now. Titanite = blacksmith stones.
Story itself has little to do with DS 1 2 and 3, just a few nods but overall it's a new plot (albeit, from what I've seen it's still very reminiscent)
Game looking to be the highest rated if not a top 3 highest rated game of all time. Currently 97 on metacritic with 44 reviews.
