I don't know if I'd ever consider playing a souls mmo to be honest

Get off your alt, Dr God.

Only if it's full open world pvp like classic UO used to be during its golden age

Have you tried New World? If not, I'd keep it that way. In fact, I'd avoid all mmo's. But if that's really what you want, NW is your best bet.

I do. 2, in fact, that I still actively play.
So thanks for that.

That being said, Elden Ring so wouldn't work in any way shape or form that I could see without it stopping to be Elden Ring, so that's a hard no.

T-T thats harsh man.

The number 2 is always suck, just get the 3.

Souls like MMO wouldnt work purely due to the fact that one of the key elements of 'souls like' combat is the fact that its designed around 1vs 1 on boss or 1 vs multiple enemies.
Summoning other players,summoning npcs,or summoning spirit ashes has proven that agro of more than one target breaks literally all the fights and combat in Elden ring due to how the enemies movesets are designed.
Not to mention the MMO scene is heavily focused on rping and casual combat these days.
A large % of the mmo gamer population of the newer generations dont like challenging content(look what happend to ff14 and why so many people quit wow).
Not to mention many souls like players wouldnt be keen on mmo elements for a souls game.
You'd end up with a game that well wouldnt really appeal to anybody and likely be full of empty server within a year of release except for some die hard pvpers.

my thinking is that we'd instead end up with a souls game with all sorts of stupid minigames tied to it so there's something for just about anyone. fishing, crafting, gathering, a pokemon-style minigame where you capture and train hollows to battle one another. a version of firelink shrine where you can recruit and level up NPCs and have to do something for them once a day or they get feisty.

dailies and weeklies too. can't let the player just stop playing without consequences.

As someone who has played multiple MMO's , i despise dailies and weeklies with every fibre of my being.
It is one of the most soul crushing activities in any MMO.
