person who has only played dark souls playing their second action rpg: getting real dark souls vibes from this one

yeah yeah its taking some inspiration its got a corpse run and checkpoints but the guy at koei who loves excessive numbers got his hands on it and its so much more obviously inspired by monster hunter in terms of structure (or even...dare i say it...dynasty warriors?? the game that koei is famous for????) that i think its done a serious disservice to a video game that is way more fun and engaging than at least 2 of the 3 dark souls games.
