"At the end of the day, our motivation is always to just make a game that we want to play, something we've been wanting to make. Like you had mentioned, this time around there were a lot of ideas that had piled up that I wanted to incorporate into a game. On the topic of Nightreign, it's funny because there was never really any big plan that these two games [Nightreign and The Duskbloods] would both release next to each other. I mean, that's a different director, but both of those ideas just coincided with being multiplayer games. It's not necessarily some big reveal saying that this is the direction we plan to go moving forward. We still have a heavy focus on single-player content as well. This is just something that happened to work out the way it did.

Personally, it's very fun to make a multiplayer game like this. It's not something we've done a lot and we're looking forward to seeing players' reactions and getting the feedback. But it's like, the more you work on something multiplayer for a long time, if anything, it scratches that inch only to want to make something single-player again."

I’ve always played Souls game with Keyboard & Mouse but with The Duskbloods coming up I’ve been practicing using controller and recently found I like pressing the surface buttons to attack so I bind my dodge to R2 for now. Beaten some bosses, still feel a little awkward since my right hand is doing all the pressing while my left hand only on the joy stick.

Have anyone played the whole game with dodge on L2/R2 and how was your experience ?

Lol no shade against Duskbloods
