Nah, not really, my initial post was more of a joke than a wish. Although I can't deny a little part of me still keeps on believing. But the rest of me is shrugging at it and wanted to make fun of it.

I agree. I also remember reading some rumors about Bandai Namco publishing with FromSoftware again.
Nothing realistically.
Doesn't stop me from hoping they make an appearance during Sony's inevitable PS5 event though.

Miyazaki has mentioned Escaflowne multiple times. It's an incredible anime, Dark fantasy + mecha!
Miyazaki has also mentioned Aura Battler Dunbine in an interview.
Maaaan, that would be the coolest!
The White Knight Chronicles 3 I've always asked for, only a million times better than I could ever imagine.
1. It was staggered by a month so I ended up importing to avoid spoilers.
2. The advertising was really bad with extremely corny tie ins.
Japanese version was released 1 month earlier, and the luanch trailer cut by namco almost spoiled every boss of the game
It was a bit of a dick move to delay the game 1 month to give it to streamers to spoil shit.
Every Souls game had had a delayed release of some kind for some platform by that point. Demon's Souls, Dark Souls (PC much later) Dark Souls 2 (PC one month later) and Dark Souls 3 (one month later localized release). They've been doing it each time for logistics, to either reduce the load for servers at launch, or other reasons needed to ensure a smooth launch.
It just comes off as incredibly silly to complain that this happened for Dark Souls 3 in a vacuum, especially considering it has the highest concurrent player count on Steam for Souls, probably consoles as well (BN probably knew it would be so by preorder counts and needed to adjust appropriately).
Also take into account this discussion: BN did receive backlash for delayed PC, so they had to make a choice and released PC at the same time instead of delayed, so all people in the same region could play it at the same time. That's more important than Japanese getting to play it early.
I don't want to derail though, so I'll stop here. But sometimes I just can't take these complaints seriously.
They need to hold up with any Sekiro DLC, I'm still on my first playthrough lmao. Taking my sweet time and enjoying it. Plus I still have Just Cause 4, Saints Row 3, Dreams, Shakedown: Hawaii, and a bunch of other games to play, oh man...On top of finishing up a NG+ run of Bloodborne :(

This was the case with streamers and reviewers alike, they were getting the localized PC copy 3 weeks before release just so they could stream the game and produce hype . This is totally different from a late PC port (putting Dark Souls here is disingenious because the game wasn't announced for PC when it launched, of course it had a late PC port).
I know III is the end, and initially I felt like that was the right call, but now that a few years have passed... I really would love a Dark Souls IV.
My heart agrees with you, but my brain tells me that the saga is done and there isn't much to "talk about" in an hypotetical 4th iteration.
Or maybe... the teaser is all we'll get at E3.
The point is that every Souls game has had a delayed release. You and others seem to assume they delayed DS3 only to give to streamers for promotion. There's no proof in that assertion, especially when they've never done a global launch including PC before for Souls.
Wait, was that FromSoft? (looking it up...no, it was Level-5, among others). What are you implying here?
I just like the song and the idea of an anime mecha game by From. :(
I see. You just want
Ah I see. Yeah that would be awesome. Miyazaki has talked about mech-type games so I hope they do something like that.
I never watched Escaflowne, not sure if I should go with the series or the movie. Are you guys familiar with it?
Haha, yes, I should stop worrying and be a little more patient.
Alright! Thank you!
Mannnnn. Even if this is not it, I really hope Miyazaki gets to make his Escaflowne-ish game soon. Fantasy Mecha are so fucking cool.
Oh shit. Same words Yasuhiro Kitao used when asked who's directing Sekiro by Edge. :O
The series is pretty good, the movie is trash and should be avoided.
It's been like... almost 2 decades since I saw it, but IIRC, it basically tries to condense the plot of the series into a full-length movie and... that does not work out at all.
