Why Dark Souls Owes a Debt to its Forgotten Older Sibling Otogi

The Xbox-exclusive brawlers carry a lot of the Dark Souls series' DNA.

What about King's Field? It is literally the godfather of the Souls series.

I love these games and wish they would remaster them. This era was my fave era of From Software. They were far more diverse.

Being an owner of both Otagi games I would purchase another one in a heartbeat.

If Microsoft is able to build a team to work with From software like Sony did with Sony Japan then that could happen.
However there isn't a big push for Japanese games on xbox from their fans, anecdotally they seem abrasive towards them.

i understand the authors frustration i'm not the best at parrying in games. not that i can't complete a game that requires it but it is a definite harder thing for me than other kinds of techniques in games. which might be the main reason it's so heavily added in games nowadays. want to make your game challenging without having to do a lot of work? just add a parry boss. (what i mean by parry boss is a boss you have to beat by parrying such that their attacks will kill you otherwise)

I always think it's fine as long as such games also have the roll/dodge panic button. But I understand the will to parry, it seems so cinematic in a fight when you pull it off.
