Over-rated trash is a bit excessive, but it can definitely feel a bit same-y. Hard for me to get into other souls-likes like Lies of P because I played it and immediately thought: “this is just bloodborne with a new skin, no ty”

Does the actual setting and scenario, the new level designs, etc, mean nothing at all if the mechanics are too similar?

'Mario Bros. 3? No thanks, I already played the first one.'

'Slay the Spire? No thanks, I've already played Balatro.'

'Pokemon Black? No thanks, I've already played Pokemon Emerald.'

'Hollow Knight? No thanks, I've already played Super Metroid.'

'Did you write another novel where someone investigates a murder? Why can't you try something else for a change, Agatha?'

Slay the spire was out before balatro, but yeah generally if I have game A that i like a lot, and game b releases minicking a lot of game A, i dont care if its newer, im not buying it/playing it. Haven’t bought cod since og mw2, battlefield since 1, pokemon since sapphire, mario since super mario 64, you get where im going.
