Why 2023 Has Been The Year Of The Soulslikes

Elden Ring’s 2022 GOTY award has seemingly caused a surge in Soulslike titles in 2023.

Were Lies of P, AC6, and Blasphemous made in a year? This is a real question.

AlterRecs576d ago

I doubt Armored Core and Blasphemous were, not sure Lies of P was either

HyperMoused575d ago

They...they were released this year...is what i think its saying

Seraphim575d ago

while I agree the problem likely comes from the text below the headline which states, "Elden Ring’s 2022 GOTY award has seemingly caused a surge in Soulslike titles in 2023."

Elden Rings success had nothing to do with any of these games. They were in development well before Elden Rings success.... it's just a stupid comment on so many different levels. While it's true some developers/publishers seek to capitalize on trends you can't just whip up a competent Soulslike in a matter of 12 months.

So excited for this. Lies of P is in my top 3 souls games and that is including games made by FromSoft

Elden Ring
Dark Souls 3
Lies of P
Bloodborne

Keep telling myself I’m gonna go back and grab the platinum in Lies of P before the DLC but there are an unreasonable amount of incredible games releasing this year lol

I really enjoyed going for the Lies of P platinum. It felt like less of a grind than most of the FromSoft Soulsbourne games. Highly recommend it.

But yes, too many great games for sure!

I unfortunately accidentally missed the last step for one of the quest lines for the last gold record I need and it was right near the end of the game.. so I will have to do a third playthrough and I’m procrastinating it but hope to do it again before the DLC lol

omg me too i loved the game so mjch. the lore is incredible.

and yes, this yea ris nuts in terms of mew stuff ha

IN_ecK75d ago

Played pretty much all the big souls games out there and ”all” from soft titles but didn’t enjoy the demo of lies of P. Does the game get a lot better (mostly environment wise)?

gold_drake75d ago

definitely
but u better check out some gameplay videos and convince yourself. especially if the demo didnt convince you outright
