If they can combine the atmosphere/world of the first game with the superior mechanics of the second game, it'd be great.

It's true though. Unlike the first game, you could do PvE with pretty much any build you wanted and be okay. Dark Souls 1 made pure mage playthroughs or playthroughs with weird weapons (such as whips or claws) extremely difficult because there was no way to recharge spellcasts and they made most weapons just outright suck, whereas in Dark Souls 2 all weapons have at least decent base stats and you can use elemental infusion to make them better if need be (elemental infusion in DS1 was garbage). DS2 also fixed parry-fishing by making them more difficult time, and they fixed backstab-fishing by making hitboxes not awful. Sure, Resonant Soul/Greater Resonant Soul/Climax have very large cheese potential, but at least they were nerfed, whereas the super OP weapons and spells in DS1 (WoG, anyone?) were never touched.

I think fast travel and ascetics were a mistake in DkS2.
And I added Demon's Souls to my statement specifically because BBS+Moon Uchi >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any powerstance shit in DkS2. I can only hope that part of the moveset features they're adding to DkS3 includes making a proper dual wield system again.

I would say they tapped into the co-op pretty well in DS2, especially in comparison to 1 where you could only co-op near bosses. I would hope they stick with 2, where you can pretty much play with someone whereever you can drop/find a summon sign. If they had *true* co-op though, especially for 4 players, I would lose my shit out of happiness.
That giant faceless dude at the end, Miyazaki referred to him as the Lord of Cinder. Could this be the player from the first game? (meaning all you scrubs who walked away did not win!!!!!)

Can almost guarantee coop will be the same it has always been.
Also coop is for PUSSIES.
People who have seen the demo in E3 seem happy.
- It is so hard that the developers showing off the demo keep dying, unable to beat it
- It is more like Dark Souls 1 than 2, with more of everything. Also takes some of Bloodborne in that weapons have multiple stances + charge attacks
- Sword + shield is back

Hyped, would pay for early access
It wouldn't be a Souls game without contrived and confusing multiplayer. At the rate that they 'improve' their multiplayer matchmaking systems we won't get a user friendly co-op/pvp system until Dark Souls 35.

This man speaks the truth. Somehow they made multiplayer more convoluted and confusing in Bloodborne than the Souls games.
