=== ANCHOR POEM === ═══════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────────────────── @user-30 Well maybe that's okay :) Dark Souls is a hell of a game that has stood the test of time. It's a classic now. It's okay if you're not much of a gamer. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────────────────┘ === SIMILARITY RANKED === --- #1 fediverse/20 --- ═══════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────────────────── @user-30 What does "just like dark souls" mean to you? When people say that they usually mean it's timing/reflex based, kinda hardcore, and based on memorizing boss patterns. Which imho isn't all that useful of a description because lots of games are like that. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────────────────┘ --- #2 fediverse/3210 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────── @user-1209 well, every boomer shooter is about moving as fast as possible and shooting with pinpoint accuracy, so... that's-the-game.jpg : ) ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────┘ --- #3 fediverse/4608 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────── every time a game developer makes a game where the world is in peril and the main character must save it, for every successful playthrough where the good guy wins there are thousands of doomed worlds where the player got distracted or bored and left the people to rot. how tragic. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧══════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┘ --- #4 fediverse/21 --- ═══════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────────────────── @user-30 It wasn't too long. I'm used to paragraphs from Reddit. It sounds like you enjoy the themes of Dark Souls. When people say "soulslike" they usually mean the gameplay mechanics. The theme could be completely different - like, ninjas VS mafia for example. Completely different theme, but I could see it working. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────────────────┘ --- #5 fediverse/3578 --- ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────── It's so sad how some of the best games ever made get glossed over because the fun you remember is the friendship and fantasy you felt rather than the game itself time marches forward, and culture changes to no longer fit the old tools quite right.
