I'll let you know once I play it. Maybe like Sekiro it shouldn't be categorized alongside Souls/BB.

I'll keep referring to them as Soulsborne games and Elden ring as open-world Soulsborne game.

Soulsborne is a dumb term. It's just Souls or Souls-like. Bloodborne isn't so special that it needs to be added to the genre name, sorry.

All the other games will retroactively become Elden Ringlets, because they were all building up the peak, the king, the masterpiece that is Elden Ring.

"Souls-like" is a bit more broad and can be used to describe more games than "Soulsborne".

Soulsborne is stupid, just like Metroidvania in my opinion. More than 2 names mixed would be as absurd as it would sound.

Souls-like is ok I guess.

From Soft game or an adventure game made by From Soft.

They're all essentially adventure games.

Let me add another voice to the "soulsbourne is nonsense" movement. It is nonsense.

Also stop saying you're a "souls veteran" or assorted variations. It's fucking embarrassing.

Thanks.

Do some of you really use Souls-like just for From games? Because the topic is specifically about just From.
