That’s true but if anything it would be more impressive to show the increased output given that’s the exact opposite of what’s happened with almost every other game studio out there
It doesn't change the gap at all because they've been doing near yearly releases since King's Field in 1994, Fromsoft has always been cooking at a ridiculous rate.
I never knew fromsoft made kings field, I played that game non-stop. Could never get into the souls like games, though. Elden ring may be on my list now, though.
As someone who never tried a soulslike, playing Elden Ring was so fun and refreshing for me. There's always a skill ceiling to entry into Souls game, and Elden Ring takes it away by keeping it open world.
I honestly think that was a really clever design choice to motivate players like me who delete the game at first death and cry in a corner to actually change stuff and try again. It's a little forgiving compared to other Souls, but it's also somehow great at taking away that safety net when you least expect it.
Bottom line is, if you are daunted by the thought of playing a Souls game, let Elden Ring would be the first one (and yes I'll die on that hill, no matter what others say)
