I like your question but you should formulated better, that’s why it’s getting downvoted.
Short Answer: No, it’s not a flop. Long answer: Many have given the meaning of a flop so I will not repeat. What you want to know it seems is if ERN succeeded as a multiplayer and I get the feeling you are comparing it to FPS, but they have very different markets. ERN made good money and satisfied the Soul-Like gamers Multiplayer addiction. Elden Ring is also not massive when compared to Counter Strike but in proportion ERN is very successful. The learning curve for the Souls-Like games is usually also a detractor for many.
I generally avoid reviews until I have played something but I did see the reviews were mixed on Steam also, big fan of remedy too. Though maybe that’s skewing my perspective
Good picks, but I don’t think Dark Souls qualifies as a metroidvania. Metroidvanias gate off parts of the map based on what abilities the player has/doesn’t have, whereas Dark Souls blocks off parts of the map simply because you’re missing a key. Also, Dark Souls doesn’t really have ability power-ups with the exception of acquiring the Lordvessel.
Did they cancel it? I was thinking a few months ago about how I swore I could have remembered someone making a Fallout 4 mod that adds Appalachia but I couldn’t remember for sure
I like the disgaea series not only because of the deep systems involved, but also just because gameplay is so snappy. So many SRPGs are slow as molasses in terms of interface. I also really enjoyed Unicorn Overlord recently.
Ha! I heard of this one, but haven’t been able to try it yet. As a huge fan of old school RE games, it piqued my interest. Thank you for reminding me of it. I shall pick it up as soon as I have some free time.
I’ll also mention another, even lesser known title: Kabus 22. It’s an old Turkish videogame that’s clearly inspired by classic RE titles. Not very good, but I have a soft spot for games that were developed with more love than knowledge on game design. Also the developer is a really nice dude who re-released the game for free as a thank you to the fans who reached out to him, and that’s such a sick move that I can’t help but have a lot of respect for him.
There’s a good retrospective in YT about the game here, if anyone’s curious.
I’m back on my first playthrough of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided after a two-month break for Blue Prince, Clair Obscur and F.E.A.R… It’s a great game, but I think I did it a disservice by taking the long break, I can feel I’m so much less invested now than I was when I began playing it.
It’s very unfortunate that the series ended on a cliffhanger, what they have here is really good and in many ways an upgrade on Human Revolution. A third game from the studio would have been a true masterpiece, I think.
I don’t mean that other people have changed your opinion, but quite the opposite: a game that you think is good and you didn’t know that other people hated it.
