    I know.  But Home Alone was from a time when it was OK for black kids to watch movies starring white people.

    I finished Jedi Survivor and was so disappointed that I went to my little brother's room and poured a glass of water on his head to feel something.

    McCauley's brother.  He played Fuller. The kid who apparently pisses the bed and was supposed to share a bed with Kevin and Kevin protested and Fuller drank some milk and grinned.

    What happens if you get charged for,  say,  holding TS classified documents and lie about it? Or for attempting to defraud the United States?  Or attempting to obstruct an official proceeding?

    Just to be clear, I don't actually want to harm you LOL.
     
    Yeah, I know you're on Bluepoint's side. I think - like I said - they could take their learnings and apply it to Bloodborne porting.
     
    I've advanced far past High Wall, and I would put it barely ahead of Farron Keep. I absolutely hated the beautiful looking experience I had on the Wall. Undead Settlement was incredible. I loved that. I find that with DS3, I love all of the environments way more than DS1. Even though I disliked the Wall, it was still better than most environments in DS1. Blighttown, Izalith, Darkroot... It's almost all intolerably irritating and is only saved by the lore and combat. What a shit game. Still top 3 on my list!
    Bloodborne was most people's first Soulsborne experience and they've latched onto it as the peak of the series. I don't mind that being their opinion, but fan demand influences publishers. It won't happen, but suppose we lived in a world where all that outcrying led to a full FromSoft remake of the game and a subsequent port to PC. It would have been a terrible detraction from, say, efforts on a new IP or more Sekiro content.
     
    That only matters, though, if I can prove Bloodborne is overrated, which I guess I can't. I can say, though, that the overwhelming love for the game is often birthed through comparison, and I think people look at their first Soulsborne experience through rose-tinted glasses. Read above to see how I feel about Dark Souls 1, for instance. I hate so much about the game, and yet it's in my top 3 favorite games of all time. There is uniqueness inherent to the genre that lends itself well to defaulting to the top of all game lists. It's just that good. In keeping with that, I think that too many people think too highly of Bloodborne in comparison to obvious improvements that later games make to the formula. DS2 aside, all the Soulsborne games (incredibly) not only build on each other, but get better with time, on average. Your opinions on them are what dictate where they land in your rankings, but I don't think anyone can deny that the games get better with time.
     
    Sekiro is a better experience than DS1, but the non-linearity and relative freedom that DS1 offers would obviously make some people consider that to be the better game.
     
    With that in mind, since subjectivity is all that dictates the ranking of these games, I think FromSoft is better off doing what we both agree on, which is porting and upscaling Bloodborne.
     
    A Sekiro prequel would be fucking awesome though. The rise of Tomoe or at least her journey with Lord Takeru to sever his immortality would be an amazing story. Watching her gain power to the level she ultimately reached from Okami woman to Heavenly retainer would be great, culminating in her training Genichiro. The alternate story of her severing Takeru's immortality would do the standard Souls thing of telling stories as cycles, and could set up the lore for the first Sekiro really well. Remember, in Sekiro we did things with relatively little to go off of besides her and Takeru's notes. We have no idea how they discovered those steps, nor what they mean symbologically or within the broad scope of the story of that world. We could flesh out so much more regarding the Divine Realm and the Dragon!
     
    The Purification Ending also gives room to more content, like you say. It would actually be highly unique of a FromSoft game to tell a story that wasn't cyclical. Sekiro and Kuro being the ones to break the cycle of constant immortality severance by returning the Dragon to its birthplace would be amazing too, and could develop both characters really well. Both options are great, and ideally, we'd get both.
     
    EDIT:
    I just wanted to add that I play these games in offline mode. I can't stand having soapstones everywhere, I hate random invasions, I hate invading, I hate all of it. SINGLE PLAYER. IS. SINGLE PLAYER.
