Souls Like Has Changed Gaming Forever, how fromsoft created an entire genre of games. It's weird to think about but it's a reality and thanks to Fromsoft proving the formula better than any other, it's a truth we cannot ignore. Soulslike is just here to stay

1:29 wait... isnt that an OST from Black Flag?
My favorite Soulslike game not made by FromSoft still has to be Code Vein. Absolutely love Remnant 2 and Lies of P, but anime souls really vibed with me.
Ahhh such good memories, its true that some of its mechanics are wierd and some areas are unfair or boring BUT it had potential, hoping now for a sequel
sameee, it may have been janky and way too easy but i loved the combat and especially the MUSIC, like that game really has the spirit
Same I'm ngl it was code vein that actually got me in the genre in the first place since I never had much interest in souls games knowing that they're mostly known for being hard but then I beat code vein right around the time elden ring was released with all that hype around it and elden ring solidified my love for the genre now I've beat dark souls 3 and lies of p and want to tackle the other 2 souls games and sekiro
@@eith42 game also had some sick drip and surprisingly top notch customization lol
Most underrated frl
The Surge got too much hate. It had its flaws and never fully lived up to its potential, but it tried
Salt & Sanctuary?
How about Salt and Sanctuary?
Remnant 2, Hollowknight, and Lies of P are probably my favorite games of all time.
Lies of P was my first soulslike and I loved it, it got me into that kind of games! After that I finished Sekiro and now I'm going through Elden Ring, such amazing games! Still my favorite will always be Lies of P, truly a masterpiece!
I’m obsessed with Lies of P. It’s so good. Like all souls games it’s not perfect but it’s amazing to play. I have over 150 hours in a game that takes 30 hours to complete the first play through and around 10-14 on subsequent play throughs. It’s just so good
can't believe you exposed "Schlatt"
Hey Evan. Great video as always! However when sponsored segment came in I couldn't help but notice that the music for it isn't actually from the game, or even made by them. It's the original score for Assassin's Creed: Black Flag, composed by Brian Tyler.
Some music just kinda fits a tone better ya know?
Man. I genuinely miss Lawbreakers. I had a lotta fun with it.
Will always be thankful for Jedi Fallen Order to get me into Souls games. Was always fishy with them. (Didn’t have a great experience with DS3) but god dammit, the moment and Star Wars Soulslike came out, I had to try it. Will always be thankful to that.
Could you pls make a Lies of P review
Yes
Fromsoft had Souls, while Capcom had Monhun
Let's go, love the videos keep it up!!!
I forgot what wtf means...
If you praise Remnant 2 you get a like from me! Where Lies of P builds on the foundation to create the best "Fromsoft souls-like," Remnant says, "hey what if we put mindbreaking puzzles, looter shooter elements, actual classes and infinite replayability into this concept?" and I love it so much for that. It also throws out a lot of concepts you'd expect in a souls-like that don't actually make sense when you think about them for a few seconds. Obtuse co-op? Get rid of it. Dropping souls on death? Who needs it. Long boss runs? Just put a bonfire in front of every fight. Game too hard? Here's an easy mode, plus two difficulties above what you'd usually expect, for your enjoyment plus extra drops.
Obtuse coop it's just a summon system how is that obtuse. Boss runs are apart of gaming. Dropping souls on death is a fundamental part of the genre its a risk/ reward thing. Your saying remnant 2 isn't a souls like because it fails on a major core foundation
That game sounds very forgiving, not like a souls like. Where is the risk of losing all your souls? Easy mode? There is no such thing as easy in these kind of games hahah Still it sounds like a fun game
its the ad for an inferior fantasy setting in the middle of my superior fantasy setting for me
your videos are so good man, you do such thorough research and break things down in a very palatable way that makes it very enjoyable for the listener. I loved the destiny content, and I think I might like this content even more, please keep going, you deserve so many views.
thanks Mike, this made my day
@@EvanExplainsI'm glad it did because you easily earned the praise dude.
While soulslike is cool, I think it's starting to become overused now. I would love to see more hack and slash games again for a change of pace.
Final Fantasy 16??
Agaaang?
I don't want souls likes to go away, I just want them to be better. Lies of P set the standard for any non-FromSoft souls-like. Anything that can't reach that level is probably not getting played.
I certainly don't want us to go back to pumping out "press X to win" DMC games though
Come on Evan you’re better than this
not gonna lie, I kinda hate remnant 2.
I cant fuck with the vibes, and the game play wasnt exactly an up for me.
Lies of P is the best soulslike Fromsoft hasnt made, Im dyring on that hill
lets see what that italian soulslike thats coming out at the same time as the Elden Ring DLC has to offer
Commenting to make number go up
Am I first?
YESSSS
Remanent 2 wasn't that great. Nioh 1 and 2 on the other hand, are great.
well, it at least improved upon R1 in functions and quality of life
Beans
This video has been made 4 thousand times stop
okay, but only for you Velvet Prince
@@EvanExplains thank you x merry Christmas and Happy New year

Never been a fan of souls games. They don’t feel fun. And I personally don’t find any enjoyment in overcoming and nerve wracking challenge. Just wish we would go back to old hack and slash games. Not everybody wanna be souls like because it makes money
Sounds like a skill issue
Get gud 😂
@@Krideezyyall are the people that give the genre a bad rap. Souls likes aren't for everyone, much like fighting games and puzzle games. And people like you don't make newcomers feel any more welcome
Mate the problem with the guys argument for me is the guy up there is complaining saying "i wish we would just go back to old hack and slash" its clear the guy is not looking hard enough or at all for those games he wants, since you can most definitely find hack and slashes from indie companies, id say everyone below him has a right to say something because he is looking for a reason to complain and not trying to actually fix his issue @@thediabolicalraisin8953
Final Fantasy 16 you might like
They bashed a guys head in with a hammer more then 20 × untill he had brain damage,then made him the creative directer?
(this is the 1st thing i thought of when tapping on the video.)
(i played let it die 1st/actuelly assasins creed unity and died probbally litterly more then 1000 × times trying to kill people/level 5 gold gaurds vs me with alost full stuff(you need 11 heath things vs 8 people and 12 smoke bombs to steal after you killed 1),with the blunt level 1 saber.).
Beware of the 6((( ))),
oni,but they arent big and dont have magic(unless you want play it in real life,dont attack some1 that says 88 or ((( ))),theyre a social dark souls boss,
"its bad like sifiliss,belive me,I. KNOW."nikoli belenski repersents me for how bad fighting self obsorbed lunitics.).
