I'm so embarrassed I ever thought their games were special.

But they were.
Then they released 2 which was a shitty rehash.
Then they released BB, which appeared to show they were branching out and making new, better things.
Then they released 3 which was a shitty rehash.
Then they released Sekiro, fool me once shame on you.
Then they released ER, which was a shitty sort-of rehash.

Basically From fell for it's own memes.

Notice how this guy doesn't call dark souls 1 a shitty rehash because he's never played demon's souls.

AC6 is unique, there aren't any other games like it this gen. Sekiro is also great, compared to DMC and Ninja Gaiden the fighting is slower and more focused.
Souls games have been copied but are still fun to play, the simple combat system and focus on exploration is what makes them worth playing.

Clearly someone did because we got dark souls 1 out of it.
In fact the only reason we have souls in the west is because of the outcry to get demon's ported.
But you were still in diapers then.

Demon's Souls and Bloodborne were and are still special.
This is the stance I've maintained since Demon's Souls and Bloodborne's respective launches.
You, and most other people who hopped on the bandwagon during the Dark Souls/Elden Ring era, are just generic basic retards

I can't name a single game that is "like Nightreign." I can name games that Nightreign combines (Elden Ring + Risk of Rain 2), but no other games that do it too.

Ive been playing thru AC6 with inferno mod + the expanse expansion for Inferno and it's pretty dope. More difficulty and new parts from the expanse but not as much bloat as Armoury mod, which don't get me wrong I also really enjoyed and am sad that it was abandoned due to bs drama.

Can't wait for Aftermath mod. I have to say as much as I like AC6 the modders have really brought it to its true potential. The game really needed a hard mode with more enemies. Playing through the modded versions of Destroy the Mobile Mining Platform really shows how undercooked the level was. The thing should be bristling with turrets like an arms fort but there's only a couple on the rear section. The Eye lazor and ground forces are also easily evaded by just going around the left path. Armory mod in particular did great by slapping missile turrets and gatling artillery all over it including some very pesky long range missiles that supplement the Eye.

The Armored Core games fill a specific and special niche no other game manages to.

Nah, Dark Souls 1, Bloodborne and Sekiro are still extremely special. Demon's Soul too, to a lesser extent. Armored Core 6 was very good as well.

They just became a victim of their successes. Line must go up. Their open world sloppa being their best seller is a guarantee that they won't ever go in the right direction ever again. Don't be sad it's over. Be glad it happened.

Atlus and From Software are the best two Japanese developers. They always were too.

They were in development at the same time, silly. We'll see. Either ways, even if they never make another good game ever again, it was a hell of two decades from them.

Nah I'm glad they're milking the Elden Ring IP with Nightreign and working on that Nintendo game.
They realized they push the formula to its limit and are moving on to other genres.

There are gameplay decisions that never get old but a lot of fromsoft decisions DO feel old after you play a couple of their games. Like yes, clearing enemy camps in ER and fighting big spooky bosses is still "fun", or should I say "satisfying", the same way collecting coins is fun in a platformer, it's just that the whole process doesn't have the same impact it once had. It's basically what I felt playing DS2 after DeS and DS — very few things made me care. When I find a secret in ER I feel nothing, when I kill a boss I feel something like "ok I guess, next one please", when I hear le epic choir by Yuka Kitamura I remember that DS3 soundtrack was cooler anyway. There are some touching moments in ER like Radahn festival or visiting Shaman village but apart from that it was an experience too familiar.

I've been playing this series from 90s with KF so I don't have this problem. The reason From succeeded is perseverance. They made the same game 20 times and each time it was a little better.

I think Dark Souls improved on Demon's Souls. Dark Souls 2/3/Elden Ring did not improve on either game though.

Elden Ring did. In fact I'd go so far as to say as Elden Ring was the realization of what From Soft has always wanted to do with the cross country adventure

If ER is the realization of what FS always wanted, that just proves limitations can be a good thing.

I kinda agree since Elden Ring has almost everything the previous games had (including Sekiro and BB) but all these things had a weak impact on me because I was so used to souls tricks at this point. My favorite part of ER is all the stuff they never had before like wildlife, Torrent, jumping button, that girl that hugs you and gives you aids and so forth. DS3 was a perfect closure to souls formula already and it was a bit disappointing that they got it back for ER, and then Nightreign, and then probably Duskbloods.

What stands out to me about ER is how little it actually takes advantage of its open world. Miyazaki has been trying to implement roaming enemies as far back as DS1, and somehow he STILL can't figure it out over a decade later in his open world game. The horse only exists to make the huge spaces tolerable, crafting is just there to pad out rewards, and otherwise there are basically no interesting mechanical things they do with it at all.

The main issue I have with Elden Ring is they toned down the multiplayer even though that's what made early souls games great.
I'm glad their next title is focused on PvP.

And they made it to be as dead of a world as all of their previous ones. I don't understand what their obsession is with a world that's already on its last legs, it's fucking boring to hear every NPC talk about shit in the past because nothing in the game can move forward without the player but all of the actually cool stuff happened some nondescript time ago. An Elden Ring game that took place during the Shattering where you could meddle, participate or interrupt some of the key events would have been sick, that could have been their alternate endings route instead of palette swapped throne sitting. Imagine roaming around the world after the flags for the Scarlet Aeonia nuke in Caelid are set off and seeing that cleanrot knight carrying Malenia and just by your own actions choosing to either see that path through all the way to the haligtree, possibly unlocking that area earlier than if you had missed it, or killing Malenia and the knight there which could come with its own consequences. FUCK

It's just Fromsoft fatigue.
After 15 years of the same roll slop, obtuse quest lines, and cyclical ending, it's time to move on from soulslikes

yeah I never got why they keep doing this
why do they insist with the quest lines that require guides? it's not like they can pretend they are trying to be retro anymore
they just keep doing the same because "it sold so don't change it"
