Comment on The Expanse: Osiris Reborn Will Take Cues From Mass Effect, Souls Games and More

Mishulin vaguely compared Osiris Reborn to a Souls game – not in its difficulty, but in discovering weapons during the game and strengthening your play style around it.
I find Souls games boring, but this particular aspect wouldn’t bother me. It’s common in other genres as well, like deck-builders.

I would have much more trust in their vision if the creative director did compare it to a deck-builder instead of more souls slop.
To be fair it‘s not clear to me whether the author of the article or the CD made that comparison but seeing how many huge and beloved IPs they‘re throwing around doesn‘t make me hopeful unfortunately. I‘d rather see them show off their (hopefully deep) understanding of the toolbox they‘re working with than dropping big names like Mass Effect, Baldur’s Gate 3 or Darksouls.
