Which souls-like from soft title shoud i play next?

[Grimm]

So i have 60 euros on playstation 4. I almost beat elden ring ( my first froms soft title ) and had so much fun. Since elden ring is a souls-like ( genre i enjoy ) i wanted to try a new one. S o which from soft title shoud i play? Ik lies of P isnt a from soft title but its so close so if anyone suggests that i accept it.

[Grimm]

i heard DS2 is the worst in the franchise. Havent played it but less i-frames on dodge doesnt sound really attractive

The most vocal minority says that (the asmongold followers).

They're wrong, it's a great game. DS1 has just as much jank and is smeared with poopy nostalgia atm, I feel like the elitists gravitate around it and DS3 to just stick their noses at something different. Seriously, DS2 may be "floaty" at the start, but figure out ADP and the different stats, you'll be fine.

(Elden ring is closer to DS2 than DS3 or DS1, ngl)

Meh, the OG's one of my favorites... the remaster is fine, but I'm smearing poopy nostalgia on it. The asylum is my favorite area in any Souls game...

But it's definitely not the best in the series, in terms of polish.

I think the dark souls franchise just does everything better and by the time you finish elden ring you'll probably be satisfied with this type of game. I don't think it's worth playing at this point unless you really just want to play all of them.

I finished it once and never wanted to play again, I'd rather just replay dark souls or bloodborne.

fair enough, i think from software should remake King's field franchise since they are basically first person souls games.

Demon Souls envy (not available on PS4 to my knowledge, don't have a reason yet to get a PS5)

Lunacid or Dread Delusion might be up your alley, they're as close as we'll get to a new Kings Field or Shadow Tower.

Otherwise, Legend of Grimrock is a recommendation if you don't mind party systems.

Nah, DS2 is an excellent game, only casuals hate on it. The big one you want to avoid is Bloodborne, it's the worst of the Soulsborne games, and it's even worse than a lot of soulslikes. It's best to skip it.

The only bad thing about Bloodborne is the framerate.

Bloodborne is great, and yes. The casuals love to hate on DS2 despite it being an insanely good experience.

That's the least bad thing about it. It's just not fun.

Maybe they should add a death penalty and a bunch of torches to Bloodborne?

HK is the best gaming expirience of my life and when i seen that HK is a souls-like i coudnt resist

i'm reminded that before it released people would just show up in the DS3 discussions and shill it unprompted and everyone was like "wtf is this"

...and then it turns out it was like the best metroidvania ever so they had a point after all
