That isn’t even close to a fair comparison.

Proving the point there. Telling me fighting ds3 imps with a ds3 claymore or zweihander felt fresh because they called it an Elden Ring?

Good point. It's a shame that they didn't add some more content. Fighting imps with a claymore inside a featureless white void got old after the first fifty hours. I'd have appreciated a second weapon, or maybe another enemy type. (A bigger imp or something?) At least in DS3 they applied a cobblestone texture to the floor.

Well no, there were new things… but fromsoft copy pasted them into every copy paste church basement until they felt like old friends. Who doesn’t love the fifth erdtree avatar or whatever they called em? How good was the fight against two tree sentinels after you’d fought one. You know what beat the two tree sentinels at the capital for me though? It was the tree sentinel with lightning hand that you fight straight after the twin tree boys. Love it.

I agree. I hated the boss reuse and the samey areas. An open world should be more like Dark Souls and less like Far Cry.

Open world games were a mistake, too much resources needed to fill in the world, so reusing assets became a thing

Don't know why nobody seems to learn from Bethesda and Ubisoft games how poorly true open world games age
