          I agree that "the dark souls of blank" is a dumb buzzphrase, but this is just a problem with journalists though.
          imagine the "halo of party games" or "third person half-life" or the "fortnite of rts games"...

          these arnt indictments of a game's quality, theyre just shorthand that passes for insight in the eternally juvenile game journalism sphere.

          >dark souls of ______
          there was a period of 2 months after dark souls released where that was used unironically by journalists. It was only ever mocked and was poorly received. It's been 10 years now and it has only ever been a shitpost. If it never existed there would have just been another shitpost to take the place.

      I love it and have fond memories but probably Halo. The big console shooter, two weapon limit, regen "health".

      As much as I hate the fanboys and as much as I greatly prefer other games, Dark Souls was a force of good in the industry. It challenged the broader appeal, hand holding, dumbing down of the industry and showed that traditional and difficult games still had a place. It succeeded where games like Ninja Gaiden II and DMC4 did not.

    not a video game but marvel movies, especially ones after the first avengers movie
    the marvel cinematic universe and joss whedon have basically ruined most character writing in video games
    everything is quips, quips, quips constantly and never ending
    if I was forced to put a videogame instead of a movie here I would point the blame at portal 2 (not its own fault) or Borderlands 2 (actual dogshit, just mass-market dogshit that caught on for some reason)

    Kaizo mario for being the virtual genesis of intentionally shitty to play games that was interpreted as "skills". As well off as starting off a whole generation of homosexualry of morons that think their ability to tolerate shit is a positive thing.
    So many garbage games would hilariously get "filtered" as the trash they are but manage to survive from morons that can use it to pretend their some elite caste of gamers and not just sunken cost frickers that can't accept that they aren't actually as cool as they think they are.

    Arkham Asylum's 'freeflow' combat and detective vision essentially ruined a great deal of subsequent combat systems and stealth games.

    Without freeflow, developers wouldn't be falling back on highly tethered animation routines which undermine spacing/attack ranges. Arguably the influence of Souls rectified this trend, but it originally always was the norm with old character action games/beat em ups.

    No detective vision would force games to more naturally highlight things in the environment, and put greater emphasis on level design in allowing enemy routines to be visible/avoidable. No seeing through walls in Tenchu.

    A lot of people don't want to admit it since the game itself is great, but its popularity shifted the industry into focusing on high budget AAA movie games. Studios quit pumping out experimental and innovative AA titles to try and replicate MGS' storytelling instead.

      Without Warcraft III then there wouldn't have been a WoW which means MMOs would not become so popular, and without tower defense we wouldn't have gotten fortnite, and no fortnite would mean no epic games store. Removing WC3 would prevent a ton of cancer, actually.
