I still can’t get over The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Are there any games that can replace it? I want to try something newer, with better technology, but I hope they can be as rich and interesting as Skyrim.

It’s very Souls-inspired, but (as someone who has played a good number of souls games) it’s done fairly poorly. It’s still far more interactive than TES games, but it’s clunky. It’s not bad, just bad compared to the Souls games, which are particularly good, but the rest of the game is quite different from a souls game. It’s basically if you take the bonfires and combat system from a souls game and stick it in a narrative focused RPG.
Hm as someone who holds Fromsoft mechanics as the standard for gaming it sounds like this might be a game I’ll either love or I’ll hate. Definitely love the idea of having the rest of the game different from Soulslikes. But if combat isn’t tight it’s likely I’ll bounce off of it or slog through just to see the end. I could hardly get myself to finish Witcher 3 even though I loved everything about it except the combat.
It’s worth a shot. You can get it pretty cheap sometimes. Honestly though, yeah, I think it’s probably better for people who haven’t played many souls-likes. For me, it feels clunky and super easy to cheese because I’m used to what it’s trying to do, and I know to use the mechanics to my advantage. I spent a good few hours with it, but eventually stopped playing. I didn’t dislike it, but I put it down one day and then never had the interest of coming back.
