In what reality does life suck this hard haha? Visions of hell seem more pleasant than this world.

chobit_A5HL3Y2156d ago

why do these devs think we need or want more soulsborne games? they've been nearly perfected already. so what's the point of coming in to the genre just make some half-asses attempt at the market?

SyntheticForm2156d ago

You may as well tell people to stop making shooters or RPGs because there are so many damn good ones out there.

'We don't need or want your take - we have enough as it is and they've been perfected'

Speak for yourself. I'm always interested in new takes on things. Yes, some turn out poorly, and "some" really is the key word, because some also turn out great.

If someone puts their unique twist on it, and it's actually good, and atmospheric, with good storytelling, then why the hell not?

Nitrowolf22156d ago

because it's a genre and theres a market for it?
We wouldn't get games like Nioh then if everyone thought that, everyone deserves their own take on it

Seems like you've only played Doom, Metroid, Ocarina of Time and MGS till now and nothing after.

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.

GeeEssEff389d ago

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

Cacabunga389d ago

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

blackblades389d ago (Edited 389d ago )

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

anast388d ago

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

robtion389d ago

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

Goodguy01389d ago (Edited 389d 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.

robtion388d ago

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

qalpha388d ago

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

Nacho_Z388d ago

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

jznrpg84d 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.
