Code Vein - anime tiddee souls

Well how like the "Dark Souls" genre was the original King's field?

Different, though you can definitely see the seeds of what’d later become Souls

probably won't ever play this one unless it ends up being free on PSN

I thought this was another copy of God Eater that it was also a copy of Monster Hunter, i will probably play it until Blasphemous is released (is platformer edgy souls)

Where did the Dark Souls/Demon Souls hard boss fight type of style develop from? The earliest I can remember is Batman Arkham Asylum that used a sort of 3rd person with a rotating camera when battles occured. But I'm sure there were other precursors that I don't know about.

I've seen many games use the same boss fight telegraph/memorize moves games, like Monster Hunter. Is that where it originated? I have no idea, someone more knowledgeable can take the reins.

Look back at Devil May Cry and Ninja Gaiden or go back to older 2D games. Dracula and Death from the first Castlevania are pretty Souls:y in that they're real motherfuckers but they can be learned and then aced without taking a hit.

Not sure if I’d call MH bosses soulsy since you also have to chase them, track them, decide whether to kill or trap them, etc.

Necroing cause of the Ps4 Demo, been having a lot of fun with it but have been trying to get the boss weapons from the depths and have only managed to get the stupid hammer 3 times, anybody else playing and managed to get the other weapons?
