Is FromSoftware creatively bankrupt? They've been rehashing for over decade now

They always have been. King's Field and Armored Core was always rehashes of existing templates. Souls template is even worse since it adds little to nothing over King's Field.

you must be over the age of 18 to post here soulsfag. ACfags already knew this about From Software.

At least with Armored Core you always knew what you were gonna get. It was never a disappointment.

Shouldnt they have enough money now to make a game that's mechanically good now?
Jaxson Martinez
More money doesn't make better games.

Ds1-3 are sequals so they get a pass.
Bloodborne and sekiro are completely different. Haven't played demon's souls yet.
Elden rings is gonna be different too.
Luis Reyes
Will there honestly be a game as raw fun as bloodborne again?

t. has never player a souls game or a kings field game
Zachary Robinson
It’s amazing that they don’t get shit on here like other companies that just spam the same game over and over do
-le game hard equals game good
-le spooky bosses
-le epic boss names
-le epix orchestra music
-le dark and murky world
This describes literally all the games from demons souls onwards lmao

>Bloodborne and sekiro are completely different
Lol

It's never been that the games are hard. It's that they are satisfying and actually make you feel like your PLAYING a game. Rather than button mashing or watching a movie.
T. Hasn't played any of the games

Souls games are the Call of Duty of RPGs
Chase White
Yes they are. And people only like their shit because they know their aesthetic and art direction is pleasing. NioH and its sequel, and even fucking Code Vein have far better gameplay than any Souls game including Bloodborne but they aren't as popular because their aesthetics and art direction are not as good as From's. Basically Soulsfags are just fags with no taste and care more about presentation than gameplay.

If it aint broke, dont fix it. The games are great, id gladly take a "rehash" over them trying something "new", since whenever that happens everything goes to shit and it takes decades for the franchise in question to even return to a shell of its former self.
Carter Scott
These. Both Japanese games too, what a coincidence...
Carson White
they had first person dungeon crawlers
and they have third person dungeon crawlers
also armed core, but nobody plays that shit
Nolan Morris
If you don't like soulslike games doesn't means that the genre is bad. Personally I think those games are pretty good. I really enjoy the challenge. Don't forget Sekiro was a GOTY and nobody complained about that. The game is great and it does not look anything like dark souls

Fromsoft used to make a ton of different games and most of them didn't really sell so whenever one sold alright they doubled down on it and churned out a bunch of them with minimal variation.
Kings Field did well so they churned out a bunch of them. Same for Armored Core and Souls. If you go through their catalogue though there's plenty of good games that got only one or two installments because they just didn't sell that well like Chromehounds, Otogi and Lost Kingdoms.

I thought Déraciné and Sekiro both felt like a breath of fresh air after Dark Souls 3.
