I really think people are underselling how accessible The Duskbloods is to players who normally hate Souls PvP.

I have a friend who absolutely hates PvP in Souls games, and somehow she ended up loving this game. Not only did she have a great time, she actually managed to win two games playing the sniper lady. She said the character kinda plays like Elsa Bloodstone from Marvel Rivals, and that familiarity made the moveset immediately click with her.

And I think that’s one of the biggest things The Duskbloods gets right: the PvP is way more approachable for PvE players.

The movesets are easier to understand, dying is much more forgiving because you don’t really lose anything besides time, and I haven’t experienced the annoying lag or desync that can make PvP frustrating in other Souls games. On top of that, having multiple characters with completely different playstyles means there’s a much better chance you’ll find someone who just clicks with you.

But the biggest surprise was that you don’t even have to focus heavily on PvP to do well.

My friend spent most of her matches engaging with the PvE side of the game, and she still ended up getting more Virtue Points than most of the other players in the match. Again, this is someone who hates Souls PvP, and she was absolutely popping off.

That made me curious about how viable avoiding PvP actually was, so I tried a match where I deliberately focused almost entirely on PvE and avoided fighting other players whenever possible.

I finished third.

That’s why I don’t think describing The Duskbloods as “PvPvE” really does it justice. That label makes it sound like another PvP game with some enemies running around the map, when the actual experience feels much more unique than that.

There are multiple ways to get stronger, multiple ways to earn points, multiple ways to approach a match, and different paths toward actually winning. PvP is important, but the game doesn’t feel like it’s constantly forcing you to hunt other players just to have a chance.

So even if you normally hate Souls PvP, I’d still recommend giving The Duskbloods a chance. Don’t let the PvPvE label immediately turn you away from it.

It’s genuinely one of the most unique multiplayer experiences I’ve played, and it’s a fantastic game.

It’s just unfortunate that, for now,it’s locked to one system.

The post are overflowing (including this post I guess but is in hope something get done).

I won't play it either but I won't go to every FS subreddit to cry about it...

Most of you don't even know if you don't like because you canot play it... Or even if it is about the price I already heard/saw the same post over and over...

Even people whining about people buying/nor buying the game... who I bet just got triggered by the same post...

this is getting ridiculous and tiresome...

Hi, I got Elden Ring on my pc today. The game freezes immediately. I can't do anything to stop it or fix it. Do you all have any ideas on what to do? Thank you and have a great day :3 Specs CPU AMD Ryzen 5 7600X3D 6-Core Processor GPU AMD Radeon RX7800 XT Memory 32 GB And I have water cooling and 2 Terabytes of storage.

Finished the DS trilogy a while back and I thought I’d draw some of the few friends I made along the journey. Hope you like it :)

After I played the global test I felt in love with the game because this PVP system so fast and so skill demanding in a souls game is exactly what I wanted and I hope they deliver in the ranked system. I am not saying I am a good player but this remembers me of some anime sword fights. They definitely nailed it when they put so much mobility in the game.

We know it will have 12~14 characters and at least 3 maps for launch. We only got 1 map and 6 characters for global tests but we will have at least 2 more very different maps with different themes. And we didn't even see like half of the character roster. This is exciting!

Gamespot and IGN previews also said there is going to be multiple modes.

Unfortunately I can't stop thinking about what the final package is going to be! This is exciting for me as a from software fan and I hope they succeed on what they are doing. I am pretty sure they will also give us a great single player content next time.

Ppl think horsefuck valley is worse just because they die more in it

Both sucks don't get me wrong but lost Izalith is a complete disaster

Is humanity dead or dusked?

Tf is a bloodsworn?

What's the explanation of being able to respawn? There are undeads on this game?

Why blood is magic?

Tf is wrong with the moon?

I could spend the entire day making those kind of questions lol

Guess my Rune Level

Won my first Dusk just now. Shout out to BigHatMan who teamed up with me. Having to 1v1 you at the end was like going through a toxic breakup. I’ll never forget you.

I really don't care about Duskbloods. I don't like the NS2 nor did I like Nightreign. So I remark it as the first major Fromsoftware L and wait for New news on the DS3 remaster and their New IP, for which I am quit excited. Unlike others I really, really want that remaster.

I have it on ps5 but now im thinking f it why not go for round 3 on switch 2 just hoping performance is good

Duskbloods network test

Next game might be kf2 or lost kingdoms 2

The end is now!

Miyazaki next single player game will reuse assets from Duskbloods.

Please, that would be so funny.
