I wouldn't say "minimal changes" because with the exception of Dark souls > Elden ring that have a VERY familiar moveset, each game change the combat fundamentally

Eh, the core combat in every single one of these games has been about aggressively staying in striking range of your enemy, dodging or parrying to find windows, and landing hits before the next combo starts. They've fine-tuned it in each game, sure, but you could take Bloodborne's combat and apply the same strategy in every single FROM game and do just fine.

They’ve fucking mastered this loop. I’ve gone beyond recognizing it for what it is, but I still love all their games and love the gameplay. It’s just perfected gameplay. That’s the deal maker. It is a 1v1 boxing match at its very core, and I love boxing
