My biggest pleasant surprise of 2025 so far has been the free prequel to one of my favorite indie RPGs, made with FromSoft's 25-year-old game making toolset

Well, thank heavens.

FromSoftware’s Switch 2 Exclusive Looks Too Familiar To Get Me Excited

FromSoftware revealed the Nintendo-exclusive 'The Duskbloods' at the recent Switch 2 Direct, and while it may be satisfying players' 'Bloodborne 2' cravings, it feels like a bad sign for the developer.

Nightreign feels like a huge mod, for better and worse.

Elden Ring Nightreign went roguelike as the focus was "condensing" the RPG experience down, not because FromSoftware was "chasing a trend"

Roleplay their "earnest but often fumbling tragedy."
