Rise of the Ronin isnt a soulslike. Neither is Nioh. I think many people will agree. The term soulslikes needs to stay niche. Nioh and Wo Long are in there own genre. They are missionbased. Soulslike have too have a combat & bossfights/world similar to Dark souls such as Lords of the Fallen and Lies of P. Nioh doesnt have linear openworldish world. Rise of the ronin is more comparable with Ghost of Tsushima and Assassin's Creed. If we are gonna say Rise of ronin is a soulslike thats like saying ghost os tsushima is a soulslike and its getting ridiculous. Every other game on here seems comparable and i agree with

@@paulypipes3082 Totally disagree. Nioh & Wo Long are indeed Soulslike despite its own unique gameplay styles & game designs. The very basic system of soulslike genre are the implementation of "souls" economy & specific save point system/rules & the very fact that a game is designed to be difficult or challenging both in levels & combat designs. Everything else are things that could add as flavors to make other games unique. So just because its mission based, it doesn't mean it's not soulslike, especially when the map levels in this missions often goes hard for being labyrinth-like & non-linear. Also you kinda wronged yourself when Elden Ring is literally nonlinear Open World style. As for Rise of Ronin for being soulslike or not, I have yet to play the game to make such conclusive statement, nor we have any evidences from game footage to claim one or the other. What is clear the game developed by Team Ninja, it's Action RPG, the gameplay did have similar feels & tempos to their Soulslike games (Nioh & Wo Long).

@@crozraven Fans have created the term soulslike from the gameplay not the world or bosses. Words have meanings, we just can't change stuff on the fly. I said no because in Souls you have to attack and block with R1&R2 or right bumper right trigger such as block etc. Nioh&wo long u attack with square&triangle or x & y etc. Plus u have 3 different stance patterns. Yes u have builds but alot of other games have builds as well. Are we going to call those games souls likes too? Dark souls, sekiro, bloodborne elden ring arent mission based. They all have the same Fromsoftware feeling and touch to the combat; Your dropped in the world and your not told where to go... Also you pick up items and the lore isn't told much through cutscenes. Just because a game has boss fights that are hard either doesnt mean its a "soulslike". U mind as well just call Zelda a souls like.... Oh wait im sorry Zelda has been the arbiter of bossfights since the 90s. We gonna call dark souls zeldasouls now? Are we gonna say Zelda Link to the Past is a souls like too lmao😂? Games didn't even exist then. Fromsoftware have created an awesome niche genre and companies are inspired by that such as lies of p and lords of the fallen because the gameplay loop and worlds have a similar formula. Fightingcowboy would always get this question about Nioh in his livestreams and he would say, if you like the difficulty of souls then u would like nioh games but they arent the same because gameplay is completely different. Imagine comparing elden ring to Nioh. U just can't. They are completely different.

I’d have to disagree that being an action rpg, having pinpoint combat, big boss fights and a focus on dodging and positioning make a game a “Soul-Like”. Dark Souls didn’t invent those thinks in a game. Monster Hunter and Zelda did that before Dark Souks. I think the thing that typically categorize a game as a “Souls-Like”. Is usually the respawn and reset mechanic or the “bonefire mechanic” as I call it (other people probably did it before me I’m sure) like Lords of the Fallen, Wu Long or Nioh. By your description, you could get away with calling most games a “Souls-Like”, which to me is ridiculous. You basically said any Action RPG with a dodge mechanic and big bosses is a “Souls-Like”

A big part of a souls-like is stamina management. I feel if one doesn't have it, or something similar, it fails to qualify. There are 3 fundamental design aspects of a soulslike broadly speaking; combat mechanics, environmental design, and the levelling system. Crucial elements to the combat mechanics are high commitment actions, opportunity trade-offs (e.g. speed over power, attack or evade or defend, etc.), punishable/vulnerable (health) recoveries, and stamina management. Characteristic level design features are hazardous environmental elements (i.e. traps, lots of booby traps) and ambushes, secrets and discovery, and some sort of sequential progression (usually linear) identified by checkpoint mechanics like bonfires. Key aspects of the levelling system should include some sort of currency, risk of losing that currency (typically on death after failing to retrieve it), and attributes or characteristics to improve (i.e. level up). This is to say nothing of build varieties or multiplayer co-op and pvp. That doesn't need to be an essential part of a soulslike although I do think it completes it.

One element that most studios trying to make souls-likes really skimp on is good world-building and good storytelling.

Some of these look really cool but Black Myth Wukong being based on the folk tale that spawned Dragonball is why I, personally, am most interested in it as a souls-like.

Clearly borrowing from the same sources as Hidetaka Miyazaki. That giant hand is deadass Berserk.

Fromsoftware games excel at atmosphere, level design and exploration, that’s why no other game developer has come close to the experience that from games are known for.

@@Enux485 completely different genre of games. But people could say the same thing about rockstar being inferior to fromsoftware. I find rockstar games incredible at what they do but cd project red makes a much better open world game in the Witcher 3 which is far better open world game that anything rockstars has ever developed. There is no other developer that come close to what fromsoftware has made in their genre

I forget who I was watching on twitch the other day but they mentioned that it would be awesome to get an Indian/Hindu inspired souls-like - imagine how cool it would be with the mythological creatures but like a super bright color palette and art style

Black Myth was announced in ‘18? Daaamn. That game has been teased for a long time. And it’s clearly held our attention for that long. I’m doubling down now that it WILL be the critical and commercial smash hit of ‘24. Fans have been following this for forever. Hard to believe it’s actually here. It’s been teased for 6 years! Help me recall.. how long was CyperPunk 2077 teased? (Not comparing this in terms of release day product, but in terms of hype cycle) and we know how much hype CyperPunk got. I bought the damn thing day one, only to get home and learn the mess. But man, is it one of the games of the decade. I feel like this could be right up there in that top 10 games of the 2020s decade.

Thanks for this video. I feel like I’m usually up to snuff with new/upcoming games but didn’t know about Entotria and Bersker, both look cool. Entoria could still see some animation improvements, but even then I’m game. Reminds me of the melee based souls-like Chronos before the Ashes, a prequel of sorts to the Remnant 1/2 games, in same world, and it’s a evident as soon as you start game, just on smaller scale than Remnant 1/2 and without guns; it’s melee weapons only. Certainly wasn’t crazy polished, but felt good, and cunchy, with stamina bar and the works, and played just like Enotria looks like it plays. And if it worked for Chronos, I feel like could work here. Also, for all the Remnant fans, don’t sleep on Chronos before the Ashes.

Uh Project: The Perceiver? Also, god forbid we have attractive women in skin tight outfits occasionally in a game. Stellar Blades looks sick AF amd the character design is fine. Nier, Bayonetta etc, character design didn't hurt those games. It aint hurting this one.

I'd like to see one that's truly more metroidvania like. Let's start with jumps. Later you get an air dash to reach more ect. Movement is not in Alot. Imagine sekiro grapple hook but so much more in terms of searching and movement skills.

Souls fans are eating good. Every new soulslike I have played this year scratches a different itch. Lords of the Fallen and Lies of P were some of my favorite games to play this year. Lies of P has the best soulslike combat that isn’t from FromSoft. Lords of the Fallen had a level world building and visual story telling that I hadn’t felt since I first played Dark Souls 1. It feels a bit like a Dark Souls 1.5 which makes the gameplay feel unique in my opinion.
