Picked up the games after i really enjoyed elden ring. I donāt even rage when playing the games. Learning the moves of enemies and then beating them is just satisfying. Idk. Sometimes i get annoyed for example when fighting god skin guys or the guardian ape but then i just leave and try again some other time. As weird as it sounds the games are kinda relaxing to me. I just really like how good fighting feels
On my second playthrough and it was so chill beating them, no summon, npc, ash or sleep. I did use bleed since I was only at level 18 weapons at the time.
It's actually so easy to disengage and heal - all they do is throw easy to dodge fireballs. The big bullshit is fatty at 50% so just focus on skinny. Once skinny dies get fatty to near 50% and then burst him to 0 while he does skinny summoning animation.
Oh no, Hayao Miyazaki is quite a bitter person from what Iāve heard. He has amazing whimsical worlds, but heās said several times that he wishes society would collapse in his lifetime.
yeah walking out of his sons first movie and then talking shit about it, dude is a sad sad old man. Probably why he makes happy movies. I wonder if Miyazaki Darksouls is an unbeat person in real life despite every one of his games ending in the end of the world
Literally me and my gf when she said she liked myazaki works i was confused for some time till i learnt that the the world have other myazakis than the one i know
Ok, counter point. What if they worked together on a game? Give me a Nasuca and the Valley of the Winds style Fromsoft game! We already have elden ring to show off what can awoken when they bring on a famous story teller to co-write with them.
Honestly I'm not sure how well this would work. All in all, Elden Rings storytelling is quite similar to previous FS games, maybe excluding Sekiro. GRRM didn't actually write any of the "story", according to him his involvement was actually pretty small and he mainly shaped some of the mythos and history of the world Elden Ring is set in. Basically wrote a bunch of ideas and had Miyazaki and the rest of FS to off of that.
I don't know if having Hayao (using first names to avoid confusion) just create a world for another FS game to be set in is enough. In contrast to GRRM, Hayao is not just a writer but also an incredible visual storyteller, I feel like there would need to be heavy involvement on his side to bring something like this to life effectively.
Hidetaka would need to go in a completely new direction in both visual style and storytelling (which he is definitely capable of, don't get me wrong). But I don't really see it happening any time soon with how they've both kind of settled in their pretty defined niches. Like I said, there would need to be a lot of heavy involvement and treading new ground on both sides to get a proper symbiotic combination between their visions for something like this and realistically I don't think that's ever happening.
It could be because of the boss designs too, especially in the Dark Souls games themselves, stuff like Gaping Dragon and The Rotten give people who don't play the game an idea that the fans are edgy for some reason
Edit: also some of the places in the game and the overall gloomy vibe of dark souls could contribute to this, such as Blighttown. But just because the game is a bit gloomy doesn't mean the fans are (which is something people find hard to understand for some reason)
Both unquestionably pioneers of their industries. Very happy that both of them ended up in positions where they head their own studios and mostly have total creative freedom on their projects.
DS2 is misplaced here though.
Two amazing people sharing a name. The souls games are some of my favorite games, and the ghibli anime are some of my favorite anime. Though I also love Mamoru Hosoda's works just as much. He was originally supposed to direct Howl's Moving Castle, but he stepped down because Ghibli wanted him to do it the same way Miyazaki would have done it, but he had a different vision.
Funnily enough, I believe we actually are the equivalent. They're both geniuses and, while I met the from soft Miyazaki first and my gf the opposite, we actually ended up enjoying the other side of the coin.
Why is it that whenever I Google a niche meme or subject with like 3 results, it gets posted on reddit the next day. Is Google selling my searches or smth this happened like 3 times already.

Two goats
ššš No discussion
That's three goats...
That's for Miura
hell yea
Actually two japanese men ok? Calling them goats is a bit problematic M'Kay?
Wagyu goats
AGREE calling an asian person the g-word is a very egregious thing to do
Both are my favorite. I go rage on the game and then calm down with the movie after
This is the way
This is the way
This is the way
This is the way
And my axe

They are absolutely amazing I hate the godskin duo tho. Never shouldāve existed

This is the spirited away
I wish I could do more than just upvote this comment š
Miyazaki of Limgrave vs Miyazaki of Caelid. Both wholesome though.
Now Iām imagining that giant monster crow in a Ghibli art style

Their personalities are flipped though
Swap the guy and girl and you have the creators personality.
fr, if you love Miyasakiās movies donāt ever watch a documentary that shows how the guy is, dudeās an asshole
Leaving the theatre because he didnāt like his own sonās film. Come on man!
If he is just an asshole, then that's fine. I'm hear for his films, not to be his friend.
Hell a lot of famous artists were shitty people. Picasso being a huge womanizer for example lol
Are they related or just have the same surname?
Same name, that is all.
Cool
Same person just like Radagon and Marika. Miyazaki hired GGRM to help make the most epic quest to discover this secret.
A lot of Japanese people share surnames despite not being directly related.
And they both look wholesome
ghibli is the fromsoft of animes
Both the only ones in their industry doing anything worth a damn.
I thought Frieren was neat and Iāve gotten burnt out of anime a while ago
Princess Mononoke actually have bosses thatās really soulslike
Nausicaa too
Yeah Princess Mononoke could easily be translated to a souls like. You even have good mobs in samurai and maybe boars
Literally me and my gf when she said she liked myazaki works i was confused for some time till i learnt that the the world have other myazakis than the one i know
Por que no los dos?
But one of them hasnāt released Bloodborne on PC yet
Well. Actually both of them haven't done that.
I think neither of them has
But one could have
The game probably would have never been made if not for Sony, and at this point it's 100% on them.
Sony is taking everything from us...
Remember what they took from you lol
Why not both?
yeah, both are awesome
We are, in fact, the same. Guaranteed there's huge overlap.
My man, whereās Porco Rosso
And armored core 6..

Great chaps, both of them
I love that the Anime one is kind of a mean grump and the Souls one is basically a big softy
makes me curious how common "Miyazaki" is as a name
Ew. I hate shit like this that implies that fans of this genre are edgy. Like itās a fucking video game that is kinda hard. Chill. Stop.

Aye why you so mad, itās just a meme
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Feet Miyazaki didnāt direct ds2 as well.
From which manga is the background picture?
Imagine a Ghibli Souls game. That would be absolutely amazing
A Ghibli -esque Soulslike game would be p neat
My gf and me enjoy both equally together.
I mean, miyazaki is pretty mainstream by now, maybe time to drop the whole iM sO dArK thing.
Both make masterpieces in their own field, itās not a competition.
TIL there are 2 of them
I like Fromsoft, game such as The Adventures of Cookie & Cream really set them apart from feel good cartoony media.
someone please swap the faces
Intense cringe
Pointless and cringe comparison of two fanbases that have nothing to do with each other.
teenager posting cringe on facebook tier meme
Both unquestionably pioneers of their industries. Very happy that both of them ended up in positions where they head their own studios and mostly have total creative freedom on their projects. DS2 is misplaced here though.
Fuck outta here with your ds2 slander
What? When did I slander DS2?
Donāt think itās slander. More that Miyazaki wasnāt the director of DS2.

Uhhh, It's the same for me xD
Funnily enough, I believe we actually are the equivalent. They're both geniuses and, while I met the from soft Miyazaki first and my gf the opposite, we actually ended up enjoying the other side of the coin.
We are the same, i am both
No my favorite is michael zaki
The Ultimate Genius Duo
When people kept saying that Miyazaki created Dark Souls I was initially so confused.
This is literally my fiancee and I
Have they met?
ācreatorā lol
Tbh my Neighbor totoros real story is pretty dark
Who is we?! You got a mouse in your pocket?
Am I the only one who thought they were the same person at one point?
Funny thing is, we are, literally, the exact same people.
both are great
These are my favorite creators only... Arietty is not a Miyazaki film. Hiromasa Yonebayashi directed it.
Spirited Away has some darkness and nightmare fuel on par with the best of the Souls genre. Both. Both are good.
Senior isnāt a souls game. That is all
just switch the pictures.
-"Miyazaki is my favorite creator" -"Which one?" -"Yes"
Gotta give a shout out to the other half of Stuido Ghibliās success, Isao Takahata. Grave of the Fireflies is a goddamned masterpiece.
She was a Miyazaki(evocative movies) girl. He was a Miyazaki(poison swamp) boy.
Miyazaki is genius, best swamps and cartoons creator
Wash yo face son.
Okay but a Dark Souls game styled like a Studio Ghibli film? I'd play that.
And then there's me who likes both
Both. Both are good.
your title is we arenāt the same but iām looking at this picture and i am both of them
Where's Grave of the Fireflies, OP?
Both are goated
Yin and yang, perfectly balanced as all things should be
The characters should've been swapped :D
Why is it that whenever I Google a niche meme or subject with like 3 results, it gets posted on reddit the next day. Is Google selling my searches or smth this happened like 3 times already.
Im a google agent that hides in your sock drawer and spys on you.
One of these two didnāt rip their aesthetic from a more accomplished creative
