Yessir! I don't know details, but I have a clear recollection of reading an article from Fromsoft a few days ago saying they are actively working on a new AC. Can google it if you dont want to.
It seems like its a full fledged thing so rest easy there.
Eh keep it up so that other AC fans who arent up to date can be pleasantly surprised. No harm in that.
Dude yes. Also I was disappointed with 5/ Verdict Day, so I'd love another entry in the series that I really vibe with. I really hope they don't bring it back as some goddamn soulslike. I've heard people talk about how they "should" bring it back with smaller scale power-armor to facilitate dicksouls bullshit, and I'm like "have you fuckers polluted enough franchises with unsuitable soulslike mechanics?"
Also I was disappointed with 5/ Verdict Day
tbh all the problems with 5/VD started showing in 4/FA, on top of 5/VD itself trying to be "slower" without realizing that the core of AC fans just wanted more 3rd gen (3, Silent Line, Nexus, Last Raven) that just wasn't as hideously balanced. 5/VD having a heavy multiplayer focus didn't help anything either.
I'm playing through FA again and i'm just feeling all the dumbing down from 3rd to 4th gen, no real penalties for emptying your energy bar, primal armor is just a rebranded heat mechanic that was from 3rd gen and is still just a "don't get hit in quick succession lol" mechanic, quick boosting is just a 'hit E to rocket jump' that was not worth losing all the depth from 3rd gen movement, oh and because of how the gameplay is designed you have to use regular twin stick shooter controls to get anywhere which also makes 4/FA the first AC that a wider base 'could play'.
edit: And yes, it frustrates me to no end whenever someone thinks the controls for AC before 4 are bad. Like I feel that anyone who does so just didn't try to learn just because it doesn't control like the Adventures of John Halo and Joe Chief Building Inspectors.

Any crypto bullshit means I basically stop supporting a developer/ publisher entirely, so that would be worse, yeah.
ngl i though soulsborne games were just a genre. didn't know its the same company. i get they make good games, but i didnt like dark souls (3), and knowing its by the same company i guess i wont like elden ring either? my main issue was with the camera tbh. seemed like fights were more against the camera than the boss lol
Fromsoftware is a really small development team so they can only really work on one high quality game at a time. They have long since departed their old development model of shoveling out lots of smaller more rough experiences at the same time.
Although elden ring was a long ass development maybe the team is sick of souls games for now and they'll pivot back to their other IP for a bit.
