Demon's Souls isn't Soulslike. It's the original Souls game. WTF? And Elden Ring?

Another Crab's Treasure simply is not.

All the journos claiming things are "Soulslike" simply don't know what that word means.

GeeEssEff460d ago

The term “Soulslike” has become ridiculously diluted. I have seen it used for games just because they are difficult.

Cacabunga460d ago

Reminds me of Doom like back in the days for every FPS game

blackblades459d ago (Edited 459d ago )

Yeah, souls, souls lite, souls like same goes for rogue.

anast459d ago

It's either AI or the writer doesn't know the subject matter.

robtion460d ago

I've played all of these bar the Crab one so not a very accurate title.

Goodguy01459d ago (Edited 459d ago )

Nioh 1+2 imo are the best souls clone. Love the melee combat and ki system, really hoping team ninja doesn't abandon the IP and continue with a new title, hell just give us your take on the western fantasy setting for a new nioh game.

robtion459d ago

Yes Nioh 2 in particular is great. Also Wo Long (which is basically Nioh 3).

qalpha459d ago

Should have included 'Lies of P'. Seriously fun game.

Nacho_Z459d ago

That's what I was going to say, great game. Best non From Soulslike I've played.

jznrpg154d ago

Lies of P and Wuchang Fallen Feathers are best soulsikes to me. I slightly prefer Wuchang ut they’re both awesome. I’d say Black Myth Wukong too but it’s a little more action than most souls games but it could fit in there as well.

Just going through DS 2 now, it's really not a bad game.

LoveSpuds1357d ago

I thinks it's a fantastic game personally, even the weakest DS game in the series is better than most other action RPGs in my opinion.

Hope you enjoy your playthrough chief 👍

GoodGuy091356d ago (Edited 1356d ago )

It was a great game, there is no souls game from fromsoft that was bad. My only complaints were the visuals and bosses were a bit too easy. Other than that it was very fun and probably the only soulsbourne game I played nonstop and beat in just a couple of weeks pre-elden ring (Well, it took me to beat three other soulsborne games which took me years to beat to finally actually get hooked to souls, so I was very hungry for more souls lol).

People didn't like it because of no Miyazaki and the only game I really loved from him was just Bloodborne (Ofc the rest were great games too). Bloodborne is my #1, Ds2 is my #2.

lonewolf101356d ago

Yeah bosses are not exactly hard that I have come across so far. The graphics are a mixed bag, Scholar of the First Sin on PC with no mods.
Admission time even though I own all Souls games day one editions across the formats, Elden Ring was the only one that really clicked with me to a point I had to finish it. Now going back to ones released on PC to finish those or try to. Bloodborne I wish would come to PC but I might fire up my PS 4 again to play it.

Ramboforlife1356d ago

It's wonky here and there, but it's still fun to play and a great world to explore.

Jiub1357d ago

People gave DS2 way too much hate.

saint_seya1357d ago

Im one of the few that loved the game, i think im like like lvl 550 or something like that.

1357d ago
Father__Merrin1356d ago

If you haven't played Ashen yet it's worth a go very good game

_Decadent_Descent1356d ago

Demon's Souls was a 2009 release.
