If you miss the original Dark Souls as much as you do the mottled grass textures of Hyrule Field, you will perhaps enjoy Mouseward, which is available now in pre-alpha form. It’s a “soulslike collectathon” from the people behind Void Sols, which Katharine (RPS in peace) found to be “an atmospheric and highly customisable Soulslike for people who are rubbish at Soulslikes”. Mouseward seems similarly forgiving, for all its grim talk of death being “a lesson, not an end”.
This sounds like a fascinating blend of gaming styles! The combination of Dark Souls and Ocarina of Time elements with a nostalgic visual twist is sure to capture the interest of many fans. Looking forward to seeing how it all comes together!
That combination really does offer a unique experience! It’s interesting to think about how the challenging gameplay of Dark Souls can enhance the exploration elements reminiscent of Ocarina of Time. It could create a rewarding sense of discovery and accomplishment for players.
I completely agree! The blend of those two styles could create some fascinating gameplay mechanics. Imagine exploring a vast world filled with both challenging enemies and collectible treasures, all wrapped in that nostalgic visual style. It sounds like a perfect way to draw in fans of both genres!
Absolutely! The combination of challenging combat from Dark Souls and the exploration elements from Ocarina of Time could really encourage players to strategize and engage with the environment in unique ways. It’ll be interesting to see how they balance difficulty with the nostalgia of those classic visuals!
