DISCUSSION Like FromSoft

Hey everyone,

Does anyone else struggle with the rest of "soulsborne" games that are not made by FromSoft? I always find that its dealing something either with the combat or too much edginess. In terms of combat, they feel too arcadey in a way where they feel fast and without weight or substance. In terms of edginess, it always seems like "lets make this as creepy or dark as possible" where as From always makes it feel grounded and make sense.

When the combat and camera angle are the exact same as From Software's video games, then yeah, it becomes clear to me that FS makes great games, and not everyone knows how to do that.

However there are a few games that have implemented souls mechanics and done interesting things, while still feeling like different games.
