    I’m someone who tried a few Fromsoft games, but only really got into Elden Ring and that was the first (and so far only) game of theirs I finished.

    If you want more Fromsoft, there’s going to be a lot of overlap with their Souls games, because of how From reuses assets.

    Dark Souls 3 will be the most mechanically similar, but depending on what you liked in ER, it might get too similar and just feel the same, or you get frustrated when muscle memory kicks in when you do some Elden Ring move, that doesn’t work in DS3.

    Dark Souls 1 might be a nice palate cleanser, as another user already stated.

    If you play on console, Demons Souls or Bloodborne are also options, the latter probably being the fan favorite (or you can try to emulate it on PC). I think BB combat is supposed to be more aggressive because you can get back health, when you attack enemies after you’re hit.

    Sekiro is focused on parries, and a lot faster, and more difficult.

    If you want to try other developers, Lies of P is a recent one, that’s pretty good, more focus on blocking and perfect blocks, along with the BB-esque health-leech after you get hit, so you’re supposed to be more aggressive.

    If you’re a Star Wars fan, the Jedi games, Fallen Order and Survivor aren’t bad, but they have some open world bloat, that you can ignore. Also, it’s an EA game.

    If you like old school Zelda and puzzles, maybe check out Tunic.

    If you like Crabs, try Another Crab’s Treasure, that was already mentioned here.

    If you like 2D Metroid and bugs, check out Hollow Knight.

    If you like 2D Metroid and little girls (what?) take a look at Ender Lilies.

    If you like FPS and have friends, try Remnant for some coop fun.

    If you like fast-paced action games and loot, with some souls stuff, Nioh and The First Berserker Khazan have you covered. If you want more of that along with Final Fantasy, there’s Stranger of Paradise.

    If you tried Sekiro and liked it, or maybe you thought it was too hard, but it’s good in concept (and like loot) you can check out Wo Long. Also helps if you’re super into the Three Kingdoms stuff.

    If you want Chinese mythology, take a look at Black Myth: Wukong.

    If you like anime tiddies, there’s Code Vein, a decent game like this, on the easier side.

    If you’ve tried a bunch of these games and just look for more, The Surge games are alright, nothing special I think.

    If you want to defeat the woke mind virus and are extremely based, but don’t like good games, take a look at the Lords of the Fallen (2023).
