The problem with calling Demon's Souls or Dark Souls a Western RPG is that it's influenced from Japanese game design. For example, the Souls games have much more in common with Shadow of the Colossus (minimalism, epic boss fights, etc.) or Castlevania (level/world design), than it does with The Elder Scrolls or say a Bioware game.
