    It’s kinda laughable at this point. I’m not a PC guy so I’m good, but except for Demon’s Souls every single FromSoft soulslike is available on PC. There is no way Sony is not aware of the demand for a PC port - it just feels like they don’t want our money at all. If I had a PC, I’d surely double-dip

      There is a developer who has made a tongue in cheek game called bloodborne kart. Using characters from the game. Shit like everyone has a themed kart, but Micolash just fucking sprints. Sony hit them with a cease and desist. They just passed some huge milestone in downloads. People are so desperate for it, they’ll play a mario kart bloodborne-lookalike game with characters that aren’t even bloodborne by now.

      Edit: doublechecked - 500k downloads. It came out this week or sth

        Oh yea that’s true. That c&d is so brutal. It’s essentially free advertisement for FS and Sony, no money gained from that whatsoever. Only issue is that copyright laws forbid anything cool made with or from their IP. So annoying.

        Team Cherry, Hollow Knight’s developers, are super chill about this. They let you use the characters, the names and stuff for merch for example

      If was published by Sony as well so it’s not as if they have any challenges like with Demon’s souls
