Possibly hot take, soulslike games got old a long time ago. This one at least feels better to play (combat is more fluid, and not clunky), but on the back end, it's just the same miserable experience for me. It's why I didn't spend a ton of time on them in the first place.
Yeah the souls game's movement felt incredibly clunky to me too, not at all an enjoyable smooth experience. I like me some difficulty, but fast bullet hells are far more enjoyable than wading through molasses.
I find the souls-light games more fun. That style of combat with interesting bosses and set save points I think are great for exploration/combat games, but the intense difficulty of actual soulslike games is just not enjoyable. That style in an easier package is way more enjoyable.
It’s great. You suck. :)
It can suck and be too difficult for someone simultaneously.
Honestly it was just a novelty that wore off for me after clearing the second gargoyle back in Dark Souls.
Yep, a lot of rote memorization.
Basically, it's like playing old NES games, but with better graphics.
I hate to be That Guy, but (unless I'm missing the point and you're actually talking about routes, which is possible), I think you mean "rote memorization."
And, for the record, the only reason I'm even bothering to correct you is...I admit, I figured it was "wrote." It's not "root," it's not "route." But I didn't realize it was "rote." Whoops.
If you don’t suck at them, souls games are amazing.
Still clunky as shit.
I can't argue. I haven't tried this one yet, never and early adopter. I'll buy it in a couple years, with the scale tipper being they gave the finger to the woke mob.
Even Fromsoft agrees with you. Its why every other game radically changes the formula, such as Bloodborne and Sekiro. Likely why they also hard ended the series with Ringed City.
But, they are a money printer for Bandai Namco, so they are likely forced to keep producing something in the category to keep the Publisher off their back.
