BASED Maximobro. I love those games. When I first played the second one I thought the Baron guy was going to be an unlockable playable character like Vergil. His boss fight just screamed "you'll get to play as this guy later."

You argue like an absolute retard
>Topic of specific game series that has multiple commonalities that has little to do with combat and movement (as those 2 change quite a bit from game to game)
>You bring up two game series with very loose commonalities
I mean, I can literally make the same argument here. You can completely remove the topic of combat and Dark Souls and Nioh are fairly different games. The combat just further separates them apart.

You pick the wrong games to make comparisons with since i'm a big Niohfag and and beaten all the souls games so I can very much go in depth on similarities and differences. Your argument makes 0 fucking sense.

Is Twilight Princess and Skyward Sword and BotW not Zelda games because they don't have the same movement and combat as OoT/MM? No, retard

The second game is... Maximus, which is just 3D Ghost and Goblins, including making the entire game about doing extremely tight inputs while possibly dying of jank.
Its the kind of game that won´t sell well because it never had any appeal.

Or course
You could be talking about the topic at hand. Its a lot easier to make a Adventure game, as Zelda-like is a subgenre where the increased scope from dungeon crawling vs overworld increases the scope of the game significantly.
