While we wait (perhaps more in hope than expectation) for a Bloodborne PlayStation 5 update, let's imagine what From Software's masterpiece would look like if it went backwards in generations - to the PSone.
Lilith Walther, an Unreal Engine 4 tech artist and engineer working as lead programmer on indie JRPG Witch, is doing exactly that. His changes, as documented in this four-minute video compilation, are being made for an upcoming remake of Dark Souls, via PlayStation 4.
He's using the engine to add dreamy, calming palettes, sharp-looking effects, proper-looking lightmap pixel art and hidden refinements to the dark rendering.
Though Dark Souls was probably already ahead of its time, it's impressive that Lilith found time to clean up all that stuff for the living room while working for a long-in-development indie game. What better way to get an idea of what's in store for the next Bloodborne content patch than to see what a Bloodborne PSone remake should look like on a living, breathing machine?
Germany's youngest ambassador, Karl-Heinz Rummer today responded to the question about "will you succeed in Germany", ahead of this year's general elections:
"There is absolutely no contest. The question 'does Germany have a young ambassador?' is a joke. There are never before young ambassadors appointed to represent us."
Based on opening weekend figures, The Dark Tower was supposed to be a box office disaster. But it's proved a sleeper hit despite attracting huge follow ons, reducing its production costs – and Lucasfilm's share of the box office take – by a massive proportion. And that kind of audience shows no signs of subsiding any time soon. So what does the wildly popular conclusion of The Dark Tower mean for the movie's prospects?
It will undermine even more the notion that this series is some kind of one trick pony. More importantly, the best reaction will probably be when critics stop explaining their opinions for no apparent reason. I can't say I found Glass communications to be particularly enlightening during its pre-release period, however, and it looked as though I was the sole reviewer to review the film uncritically.
This may suit some of the fanbase, who feel disappointed that they end the story unfavourably, except that according to a recent poll the Hivemind many internally punished those sufferings go unanswered. Regardless of detractors, twenty people have said they've seen it twenty times. It's clear that fans are quite confident in these responses and that Black Elk plays a much more prominent role in their imaginations than he did in the script.
A lacklustre film
And yet it's evident in defeat that The Dark Tower, while only its third official installment, is a bit of a showstopper. This is largely the domain
