Sekiro 2

[D0ctorF0ster]

We need another sekiro game or something like it.

No.
Sekiro is a fully fleshed out narrative, perfectly contained in this one game.
Wolf's story is done. You'd have to force a new protagonist or do a prequel. Emphasis on "force" here.

I'd rather that they took the Sekiro combat system and made a new game in a brand new setting. A germanic/norse barbarian or something like that, maybe with a sword+shield instead of the Katana and a spear for variety.

Sekiro's done though. Finished, wrapped up. -fin-

I would like maybe a spin-off based on younger Isshin & his coup. Though, it seems like we'll get an Sekiro anime. then again it's not officially confirmed.

Please - ftlog - no more Viking games! More shinobi, YES! more Samurai? Yes. But the whole Viking shtick has been done to death.

There's four endings to Sekiro and only one of them is canon or rather "the true ending." There could be scope for another game in this setting with that in mind.

Was your monitor off during the Dragon's Homecoming end?
And another norse game? Really?

Maybe they are part of the 71.2% of people who haven't seen that particular ending?

Developers try not to make another game based on the Vikings #CHALLENGE #IMPOSSIBLE

I still think DLC could happen. I would love to be able to play though the journey you go on after the "dragons return" ending. or a game set after wolf became shura, where you arrive in the land and find it ravaged by demons and other things, with the final boss being wolf but on fire or something.

Another Samurai/Ninja themed game with a completely different story is completely acceptable.

The setting is just so rich and enjoyable. And after Elden Ring i would love to see something bigger based around Japanese mythology.

Eitherway FromSoftware are releasing bangers every time so we know we will be playing!

[AILAD]

Fromsoft would rather make the same souls games for the 8th time than make a sequel to their best game.

Anyways, they could make a sequel in China based on the return ending.

I support this... Im not a fan of japanese culture tbh

[ElectricMutt]

Name me a single good viking/norse game that is true to the mythology or even the history.
Neither God of War nor AC bothered. Valheim is also highly stylized with little care for what
inspires it.

I 100 % Sekiro and did all gauntlets, I love this game, but in spite of what corporations will knock into your head, sequels aren't always a good idea. Just because there is a way to rationalize MORE, doesn't mean it's a good idea. Sekiro is perfectly self-contained.

I would love for From Software to depict Norse mythology in the same earnest and honest.
And more Samurai games? ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ really? There's a million of them, both comically anime and gritty monochrome serious. If I want to play a "viking" game, I still have to deal with the fact that they are more preoccupied with gender/race/sexual orientation quotas than actual storytelling or even gameplay.

I agree and disagree with this.
The Parry system is just way too addicting and fun. Norse setting aye? We gonna pull a vinland saga and give the main character dual daggers?

[ElectricMutt]

You can deflect/parry with a shield (and the sword in the right hand for that matter). Wolf's sword is used to deflect even bullets and heaps of other things like giant fists and stuff. While Sekiro is grimdark, it is still very much fantasy so I don't see why a viking shield couldn't be expanded on how you'd use it to deflect stuff.

Also if we are going to be true to history for this hypothetical game, spears were more commonly used than swords as the latter were mostly reserved for the wealthy. There is a lot of blocking and deflecting in a spear fight.

If we go the route of Sekiro with monsters and gods, surely the boss of the shield can be used for a lot of creative expression - Boss in this case refers to the iron "bowl" in the middle of your typical viking shield. Maybe the rim is iron-lined which in such a case, I can easily imagine it used for deflecting.

Just use your imagination, really.

You dont play the same person in Dark Souls 1 and Dark Souls 2 and Dark Souls 3.
It would be totally possible to do a Sekiro 2 without Wolf or even in another time.
Also there is a secret ending in sekiro (called Return) which is a cliffhanger about them going west to the birthplace of the divine dragon.

So the story of Wolf is actually not finished entirely because the origin lore includes this ending.
