Hidetaka Miyazaki – who is currently working on Elden Ring, whose lore was written by George R. R. Martin – also confirmed which boss fight would be the favourite from his games,
„That is a very difficult question, and by comparison, it is as if you have three or four children and someone asks ‘which one is prettier?’. I will answer that they are all. But if I were to say which one stayed in my heart, it’s Bloodborne. It is what most struck me. I believe I did it my way, the way I wanted it. […] I would have improved the part of the Chalice Dungeons and the Blood Gems, which I would like to have detailed them and worked more thoroughly. I see the possibility of adding more things. I was inspired by Lovecraft’s The Call of Cthulhu. Probably who played Bloodborne will know that I was quite influenced by Lovecraft and this work. Other things that greatly influenced me were the logical horror and the movie Brotherhood of the Wolf,” Hidetaka Miyazaki told GameSpot Brazil at the BGS 2019 convention.
He also picked his favourite boss fight, too: „Speaking of bosses, probably Old Monk, from Demon’s Souls. This boss has a different system where the player will face other players. And at that time [the game came out on the PlayStation 3 a decade ago – the ed.], this was not a common system, so I received some criticism and warnings. But in the end, the user liked it, it was something quite different. So inside me is what most struck me,” Miyazaki added.
Who knows? Perhaps Bluepoint Games, the kings of remastering, might be working on a PlayStation 5 version of Demon’s Souls – especially how Miyazaki said that if it was done right, he’d like to see a new version of the game.
In case you haven’t played Bloodborne yet, the game can now be purchased for $15 via Amazon. If you don’t own a PlayStation 4 console, there’s always the option to play it on PC via PlayStation Now (which, by the way, just got cheaper).
