    Huh… Not really? How is Armored Core 6 “mostly the same game” as Elden Ring?

      Ac6 is “basically” the same game as ac 1 through 5 or whatever. Elden ring is “basically” the same game as the dark souls saga.

        Have you played any of the games you’re mentioning? Doesn’t sound like it, to be honest.

        This would be like saying “all those Marios games are all the same, Super Mario World is “basically” Super Mario Odyssey”

            Yeah - I won’t bother replying, this is the most absurd simplification I’ve ever heard. This place is like Reddit, except with even denser comments.

            I guess all games are the same - you just press buttons and lights go blinky blinky on the screen.

              You’re totally right. I’m a fan of the Xenoblade series and it’s obvious that they use the same engine with some slightly different tweaks and mechanics.

          All of the 2D Mario platformers are the same format with unique aspects on top. The same can be said for the 3D games, but it couldn’t be said about the Super Mario series as a whole.
