How come no one has made a Soulslike beat-em-up with the depth of a fighting game?

The whole genre is basically kept alive by the Yakuza and Judgement series. It would be cool for there to be a game like this that was actually really difficult/challenging and that you couldn't just spam the same combos over and over again to win.

The whole appeal of soulslikes is that theyโ€˜re very simple but still difficult enough to be engaging

>Soulslike

Most beatemups are also very simple but include tons of combos for the turbo nerds that like that

>>714727310

Fighting games are super deep. Look at something like Smash. It's a basic fighter on the surface but VERY deep once you start getting into short hopping and competition mode.

No, I won't. Use your words on what you mean by deep when bringing up fighting games.

Easy to learn but hard to master. Can be easy to pick up and play something like smash but there's a heavy skill gradient and you'll get punished by people that actually know what they're doing. Most beatemups are fairly mindless and easy.

rollslop is all about the illusion of difficulty, with heavy hitting attacks and patterns you can easily learn when you stop being a retard or by getting overleveled, raising the skill ceiling by requiring to master a moveset would just become frustrating for anyone who thinks they like hard games because they play rollslop and they would all drop it immediately

Souls is just live turn-based combat. The only time it attempted to be something more, we ended up with Sekiro.

Beat em ups are easy to learn and hard to master. A lot of arcade games are.

Isn't that the entire point that their easy as fuck except for boss characters? Like youre supposed to feel like a badass going through waves of plebs til you come across a boss who can kick your ass just as much as you kick his.

Making every single enemy tough as fuck would just make the game stupid long and tedious or have the devs limit the number of enemies as a result killing the entire beat em up vibe

IE they tried to make a fun action game and people hated it because it required elite reflexes.

>>714728317

Basically you're saying if they actually required you to "git gud" people wouldn't like it?

Beat em ups are about crowd control. You'll often get enemies that immediately flank you or have attacks that start out of your range like a jump attack, a slide, or a weapon throw so you can't feel comfortable just punching a guy while someone else is right behind him.

You didn't specify modern versus classic. They have different design philosophies. Classic beat em ups aren't based around combos unlike some modern ones (Streets of Rage 4 as an example).

You're correct, I assumed I was obviously talking about modern with the thread OP but I should have been more specific.

>>714729442

yup it's like what would actually happen if you got ganged up on vs what they show in movies.

>the depth of a fighting game
I think such depth amounts to nothing in a PvE game. It takes an inordinate amount of effort to make enemies actually worth practicing such elaborate systems on. Every game with complicated shit like that boils down to hammering a few OP abilities/combos/movements. Only through PvP can such systems come to life.
