>>35042602What makes Souls good? It´s not difficulty, that´s the reason and someothers why it became a meme.
The Souls games offer a huge world, where you can explore it and (except 3) you see how connected it is, explore the lore, fight some bosses, follow one story path and make your character how you like it.
And now let´s look at pokemon:
- we got a huge world we can explore and in GEN 3 you can also see how amazingly connected the region is
- we also have lore, in gen 4 more than in 1-3 but we still have it. Not in form of item descriptions but more in terms of npc/trainer talk.
- we fight also bosses, gymn leader e4 etc and follow a straight story line
- we can also form or character how we like, maybe not in terms of we can kill every character, but more in terms of "what a trainer we wanna be"
Souls was more about exploring and Pokemon is the same, but except great weapons or lore you find legendary pokemon.
>>35042617yeah gen5 was the beginning of more story focused, but gen 5 offered also huge exploration
