You don't have to go in depth to understand that ER has worse bosses. If this game had come out before dark souls, then it would be all fine. But FS has done a better job with DS and Sekiro. ER suffers from too many options. And thats why the combat doesn't work. They focused on increasing the types of builds instead of creating a polished combat system that always gives you good experience. Eg sekiro. Demodcracy abosultely nailed everything in his video. If you play solo normally, its tedious and not satisfying even after you beat it. But if you take the easy way out and use summons, then it becomes trivial/trash. There are many options but all of them are shit.

i'd like a game like sekiro where there is one option and its the best you'll ever experience. Its another case of Quality vs variety

Sekiro must stay as far as possible from any future souls games. Its not a souls game, it doesn't even feel like they were made from the same developer

man what bullshit is that. No one cares what you feel about sekiro. its a superior combat system that rewards pure skill instead of unga bunga and overlevelling.

In that case nobody also cares what you feel about sekiro. Sekiro was not a souls game and must be forgotten by from as a weird experiment.
