Bloodborne, but everyone is British, and the campfires have tea breaks.

It depends on which game is getting a remake, really.
Look how much and for how long people craved a remake of FFVII.

I'm glad your kind is dying off. Bring on the remakes.

Bloodborne Remastered AND Bloodborne 2

I was just thinking about that, or mostly what Miyazaki thinks about it. He seems very fond of Bloodborne, but reading between the lines when he commented on Demon’s Souls being remade I think he has faith in Bluepoint.

Man, if Bluepoint is making Bloodborne 2 I just hope FS or Miyazaki are somehow involved, maybe just as a supervisor or maybe even something like FS working on the story/creative side of things and BP working on everything else.

I'm fine with it, Miyazaki's games are all samey, maybe we can get a different perspective. BB is the only game really that feels quite different, I guess Sekiro too, but I hated Sekiro. Sadly Elden Ring still looks like just another Souls game with a different format. I don't think he can do anything else really.

I mean, evidently he can do something else: Sekiro won GOTY.
But yeah, I agree, Sekiro is not really ”my” From Software. It’s good, but not as good as Souls and Bloodborne.

For me, I'm curious if Bluepoint has the talents when it comes to creature designs. That's one area that From is just awesome at.

imo doesn't make sense to waste bluepoint resources on game from ps4 era, bloodborne need 60fps patch and increase in resolution thats all, not full remake on new engine from what is Bluepoint known

Eh, they'll be fine.
"Our team is a very highly experienced team, the average experience among most people is about 15 years, and all of them come from original development. It's not like we're a bunch of developers that got trained up on making remasters and remakes. We have that original game development mindset in our hearts, and that's what we're now ready, finally ready with the support of Sony to push forward and show what we can do, and show what PlayStation can do." - Marco Thrush, head of Bluepoint Games
PlayStation Officially Acquires Bluepoint Games, Next Game Planned to Be an Original, Not a Remake - IGN
Sony has acquired another studio, one it's worked closely with for many years, Bluepoint Games. Bluepoint's president, Marco Thrush, and Head of PlayStation Studios, Hermen Hulst, discuss the acquisition, Bluepoint's future games, and more.

I don't think BP is going to do Bloodborne 2. They said an original game didn't they, I don't think its a sequel.
I meam Bloodborne is also widely considered Miyazaki's best work. I think FROM should do it.
I think its about as good but lacking in replayability. You can't create a character from scratch and you can't make a certain build out of it aside from prosthetics. Sekiro doesn't feature PvP or co-op, its no shared world (not without a mod). I beat it only once, for me done was done. I think the actual gameplay has Souls beaten though, once Sekiro clicked I was completely in for it.

Bloodborne 2 from BluePoint wouldn't be Bloodborne 2. I welcome their remaster of Bloodborne 1 with open arms, however. And whatever else they want to create.
But that Tweet they sent out, teasing a bunch of remakes, is starting to look like it was in bad taste.

"Original content" does not mean a new IP. Just means new stuff, could just be a remake with new stuff in it, like FF7 remake, or it could be DLC (like for Demon's Souls PS5), or it could mean they're making their own new full game (like a Bloodborne spinoff / sequel). Anyways, its highly likely they will not be doing a new IP.
Their tweet that said "not one, but two - return FROM shadow" would actually be a genius way to tease they're remaking/remastering both Demon's Souls and Bloodborne for PS5. Remember this tweet was before Demon's Souls was announced. They were clearly saying they were now doing 2 remakes, not just 1. Demon's Souls was 1 of the 2. Bloodborne would be a logical guess for the 2nd.

Great if it's Bloodborne related and Bluepoint is involved.
Why do I feel like GAF punishes Bluepoint a lot lately

I mean they did flat out say they're working on an original IP, and this statement sounded intentional as if they wanted to tell everyone their next project is not a remake.
My money is on a Bloodborne sequel.

It's coming out in 2023, between Spider-Man 2 and Wolverine.

Damn, b
It'd like holding in a ginormous load.
By the time some of us get PS5's, we are going to be unleashed on the craziest lineup of games ever. Miles Morales, Spider-Man 2, Demons Souls, Bloodborne, Horizon 2, God of War: R. I mean, can you imagine bringing all those home for the first time at once?

All they said was "original content" not a new IP.
EDMIX

ok....but that could still mean that bud. They also didn't say they were working on a sequel either to an existing IP.
The term "original" literally would mean the origin is starting from them, THEY originally are making something, as in it didn't exist prior.
If someone can debate such a thing, I feel it means its not this 100% "not new IP" as I don't know how anyone gets that from the term "original"

I'll definitely take them giving it a shot over the alternative - no one makes another Bloodborne.

They should definitely grow Bluepoint. That team ported, remastered, and made altogether 6 games in 8 years with such a small team and makes me wonder what they could do if they were the size of Sony's bigger studios. The only thing that worries me is how a rapid expansion of the studio could mess up the flow of the team.

smh
by your own fucking post, you state it means new stuff and then pretend that new stuff could not be a new IP.
No where in the fucking term "original" does it limit such a thing to only established concepts, already made and or continuing on to something that was made previously. Its why you are having such a hard fucking time with this =)

What people are saying about it btw goes back to what Nibel said
EDMIX

Agreed.
Its unknown whether its a new IP or a reboot or a continuation of a existing with some new idea they deem "original" etc.
I have no clue where this whole "does not mean not new IP" came from.

People are saying they do not believe its a new IP though BP has wanted to do a game they are sitting on
This could be it but general thought is the new game is coming after these 2 current projects
EDMIX

True. I have a feeling that what ever remakes they are working on, the contract was already done and they've been working on them still need to see it thru. I expect Sony to expand them for that new project and so they can still do those remake, remaster projects etc.
True, but they've expanded every time they did a big remake so I feel they are used to it. I think they will just gradually expand after each project.

Yes.
No I didn't.
Duh.
I'm not. You're imagining things.

Bloodborne Remastered AND Bloodborne 2
Hmmm... not sure on how accurate this is.
I don't see them handling the project unless Bluepoint, now owned by Sony, absorved the Bloodborne remaster that was being worked on somewhere else (which wasn't them). But the biggest red flag comes from the claim of them making Bloodborne 2, which is absurd to say the least, unless it is done in super close collaboration with Miyakazi, with BP basically providing the "man power".
And even then it would be insane if true.
