Its a questionable tag at best since all souls like is is ARPG with difficult bosses and block/parry mechanics

Ive always been curious about this and never have gotten an answer. What did they call "souls-likes" before Demons's Souls came out? What makes something souls-like because ive seen metroidvanias called that which is wild.

its simple man, is coming from Demon's Souls/Dark Souls.

not every dude with a mustache is ur dad, chill. just cause it’ got block/parry doesn’t mean it gets to sit next to Sekiro.

Sekiro isn't even a Souls game. Miyazaki himself claimed this. At least use proper Souls games if you're going to come here and ♥♥♥♥♥.

Souls-like is originated from Demon's Souls/Dark Souls, which part is difficult for u to understand?

Sekiro is a point click card game.

Fromsoft fanboys are annoying AF.

yh, but Fromsoft has that whole Souls-like locked down, it's their signature, no one else can really claim that. just like Assassin's Creed with its parkour and stealth kills, other devs might try make similar games, but their sht will always be called Assassin’s Creed-like not by the original name.

The reason its called a SoulsLIKE is because its LIKE Souls, not literally souls. Duh. What are you even saying right now.

People coined the term when other companies started making games LIKE DARK SOULS. Use your brain. A souls game can't be a soulslike when its literally a souls game. Bloodborne, Elden Ring and Sekiro are just considered to be souls because they're from the source of FROM themselves.

Soulslike as a genre term was coined to describe games that incorporated all of the following elements -

- World design with levels that have you explore and constantly open up shortcuts back to a bonfire
- XP that drops from enemies that's used to level up at said bonfire, or used to purchase things
- XP is lost if you die, and then die again before getting back to your corpse
- A hub with NPCs for character progression
- Minimal story elements, minimal dialogue options, general idea of not really knowing whats going on half the time
- Epic final level bosses that kill you repeatedly and force pattern recognition

There are obviously more elements, this game uses every single one of them, and it's been incorporated in several major titles by now. Lies of P, Lord/s of the Fallen, now Khazan. They are all Souls-LIKE because they use this formula.

Did you even actually play this game? Are you just crying over the art style? Anyone that's played a FROM game before instantly recognizes this as a soulslike, and it's better than most of their titles. I still prefer Bloodborne for aesthetic purposes and vibe and Sekiro is slightly more demanding, but the difficulty tier on some of the bosses here is on par with Sekiro and the final 3-phase version of the last boss is one of the hardest bosses in any game, ever.

Your complaint isn't even so much troll bait, just unintelligent nonsense that isn't grounded in actual facts.

DMC has everything in that list...

ROFL, so you think that AC was the first stealth game with stealth kills? Have you ever heard about Tenchu, or MGS? The stealth genre was here ages before first AC :)))

Bait used to be believable.

You're forgetting Thief, Commandos, Hitman, Splinter Cell, and Manhunt
