stop calling it a souls-like when it clearly has more in common with games like Returnal or Outriders

[H4zelnut]

first it's a shooter, second the levels are generated from blocks, third it has difficulty levels, enemies don't drop "souls", there is a map, portion of HP regenerates over time, there are clearly defined classes, allies can revive you. I don't see anything that would categorize this game as a souls-like

Except the first game in the series came out before those two games and it's dark souls with guns. Hoes mad

In other words, this is closer to Deep Rock Galactic/Left4Dead/Payday and such.

Enemies respawn when you sit at campfire, therefore souls-like.

Also the grey wall in front of boss rooms.

And also combat rolls with i-frames.

And jewelry with unique effects strewn about.

There are a lot of "inspirations" from Souls games in Remnant, quite a lot of them actually.

With that logic, MMOs are souls like. Cause when you respawn after death enemies will respawn too

While acknowledging the differences, no need to be intellectually dishonest and ignore the similarities.

- Bonfires
- Estus flask
- All enemies respawn on rest/travel/death
- High dmg values on all enemies, making every encounter potentially deadly
- Obscure questlines/mechanics to access content
- Transforming boss drops into weapons/accessories

At it's core Remnant is still a soulslike, and an excellent one, it mixes up the formula with a lot of fresh ideas in the genre (different types of estus, arhetypes, weapon modificators, etc).

Souls like game but with guns!

[Dregora]

It's clearly inspired by souls like and you see this in a ton of mechanics. You seem to think souls like equals exact copy and paste of everything without doing anything new or branch off of to their own thing.

The whole structure is similar. If you're really not seeing that then lol.
