    Guy, it isn’t really pedantry to note that Elden Ring is not the fourth entry in an existing series to be considered breaking a perceived tradition or rule with its gameplay.

      Guy, Dark Souls and Demon Souls are considered the “Souls” series despite Demon Souls being an entirely different series. So yeah, it is pedantry. Name it whatever you like, people know what I am talking about when saying “souls”, and that it includes Bloodborne and Elden Ring. Because the gameplay loop is identical.

      I won’t be replying to you anymore. I don’t like arguing with people that think like you do

        Friend, I think the feeling is mutual because damn that right there’s the pedantry. That’s a hole you dug and jumped in yourself. So yeah, be quiet down there.
