Bloodborne > Dark Souls > Sekiro > Demon's Souls > Dark Souls III > Dark Souls II
I like all these games, but there's a pretty big gap between the DS sequels and the others for me, it feels like they're made by a different team within From. I'm curious how Elden Ring will turn out, assuming it's the same team but maybe a new world with new lore will make it more interesting.
@finstern: If we’re thinking of the same part, when you’re inside the serpent, it was Baldur right? He said attacking it was the best way to get Kratos’ attention.
@efesell: Yeah, I don’t know the real myth all that well but the stuff in Jotunheim implied that Loki’s mother, Tyr, and the Giants have plans for him that are original to the game (potentially involving other cultures since the Giants were aware of those). I also imagine that there will be a lot of new stuff involving Freya trying to get revenge.
Just finished it. I’m excited to see what they do with the Loki reveal. I’m guessing the second game will be about the slow discovery of what Loki is destined to do (evil shit, killing Odin or something in Ragnarok right?), with Atreus and Kratos trying to turn him off that path. I imagine that game will introduce Thor and Odin, and end with the wolves eating the moon and Ragnarok beginning (which will probably involve the arrival of the Japanese and Egyptian pantheon as well).
I really liked the dialogue after the Loki reveal as well. Kratos describing the original Atreus as a heroic soldier who was always happy, Atreus saying he prefers that name. I imagine this new trilogy will end with Atreus subverting destiny and becoming a good guy after doing some truly evil shit.
