Is this a souls like game?

[–] Crowfiend@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children)

No, although it looks like the combat is inspired by soulslike games. It's made by the team that made the Devil May Cry reboot, which had pretty fun gameplay despite Capcom demanding that the story be an edge lord's wet dream.

I'm no expert but it's probably the other way around. Ninja Gaiden was seen as the hardest quick twitch action game well before Dark Souls ever came out. It's a great game if you haven't played it though I can't speak for the sequels

Ah makes sense, I never played the NG games, but when I would talk to my friend about the OG DMC games, he would tell me about NG, so I had assumed it was more like DMC (in the sense that getting hit twice wouldn't kill you unless it was a boss).
