Please give us an option to disable pvp.

Well if you turn MP off in the options the invasions are off. Lanterns still appear though.

If you want to coop then you are out of luck.

I was doubtful when I heard it myself but they actually do show up with MP turned off.

After getting seeing the shrines at max, I stopped playing in online(unless I'm playing coop) to avoid invasions. I have YET to find a red lantern in my own game while offline. The last 30 hours or more, solo, offline, no red lanterns.

Then why did you even buy this then?

You cant simply come here and demand removal of Invasions, which is a staple of the Souls genre at this point, since way back into Demon's Souls at least.

Elden Ring messed up with the Invasions model and nearly killed PvP in the process, which it never really recovered from.

Wo-Lung Fallen Dynasty game (sorry if i butchered the name)

Obviously this game.

An honorable mention would be the "2D souls-like" game, Salt and Sacrifice.

Theres also worth mentioning games outside of the Souls formula that got inspired by the mechanic, like Watchdogs, i think Dying Light also had something like that.

Anyway, Invasions are part of the experience, and many newbies just come in into these type of games, and cry about getting invaded and then scream for the mechanic to be removed, when they are the ones that bought the game in the first place.

The same happened with Elden Ring and they got ridiculed by the already long existing fanbase.

[CadaveR]

If i remember correctly, also hellpoint

I did not know Salt and Sacrifice had that, I even beat that game(though much later in its life, so no one might have been playing anymore)

But nothing else? I personally wasnt including 2d, stuff like Grime, Ender Lillies, Hollow Knight. Honestly surprised a 2d had invasions.

I was mostly refering to the 3d games. Like Thymesia, Hellpoint, Nioh 1&2, Surge 1&2, Remnant 1&2, Lies of Piss, Mortal Shell, etc. ALOT mroe gaames in the genre DONT have invasions, or even coop, than those that DO have it. Thats my point

Multiplayer in soulslikes are a rarity, MOSTLY only coming from the creator of the genre, but not many others.

Hellpoint had coop, but no invasions. Hellpoint is 100% my favorite souslike.

I have no issues with pvp and invasions. but now that patches are breaking the game just to balance the pvp.. I really want the pvp to be separate. DOn't mix pve and pvp balancing. Lots of stuff is now ruined, especially spells. I wasn't using Pieta clones but there are other spells that were made obsolete.

Havent started myself YET (in fact i will start today since i finally finished Dragon's Dogma 100%), but i agree, PvP and PvE balance are better kept separate, ER did it late but it ended up splitting the balance to not screw up the PvE side, which was for the best.

How about no? You want to be able to play with friends without possible repercussions of invasions, grow up kid
