    I can’t wait until the everything-is-a-soulslike era has ended. I know some people like it, but it absolutely does not inspire any excitement for me.

      Similarly, I can’t wait until the everything-is-a-survival-game era ends.

        Well, they finally started appealing to me, because the new crop cares less about trying to survive and more about building stuff.

      I love Souls likes but flooding the market with one specific genre is never a good thing.

      The number of survival games or indie roguelite games is at the point where I actively avoid them now. Ive played so many I dont want another one for a while.

        The trick with roguelikes is to get addicted to 1 and not play another game for 10+ years. So you don’t get sick of roguelikes in general.

          Every game these days wants to monopolize my time, which I do not like either. I just play what I want, and I find myself more and more playing old classics because of the better variety they offer than newer titles.

      I love Souls games, but souls-like as a genre usually doesn’t even feel like souls games. It means you have a health and stamina bar, everything else is ignored…

      I’m not sure if i’ve ever played a souls like apart from the couple of VR ones. When i feel like playing a souls game i play a souls game.
