A AAA Berserk Game: Redditors Share Their Vision
A AAA Berserk game is exactly what I didn’t know I needed, and user PhantomScholar’s post on the r/gaming subreddit expresses exactly how I feel about the idea. With high-quality graphics, a focus on dark fantasy, and an epic story, PhantomScholar lays out their vision for a game with a Berserk focus. The response from other gamers is overwhelmingly positive, with suggestions for FromSoftware or Platinum Games developing the game and debates about existing Berserk games.
While PhantomScholar lists some Berserk games like “Berserk and the Band of the Hawk” as examples, there is some debate about the quality of these titles. Nonetheless, the discussion expands to include other desired games, with a new Tenchu game with stealth elements, a D&D game set in the Witcher universe, and a story-driven shooter set in the Toy Story universe.
Users exchange ideas about how these games could be executed and express their excitement for these concepts. PhantomScholar mentions the untimely passing of Kentaro Miura, the creator of Berserk, and the plans to finish the manga using his notes and outlines.
“I had no idea Berserk was still being worked on,” one user says. “This is amazing and a huge relief.”
The consensus is that these game ideas have great potential and would be well-received by fans. There is some acknowledgement of the challenges of turning these ideas into reality, such as licensing issues or the preferences of IP holders.
Regardless, it’s always nice to dream about the games we’d like to see, and this discussion is full of them.
