I do understand what you mean and perhaps the TS used the wrong word in his question because i don't think this is what he meant. He is clearly talking about completely new games/franchises here, not just a new intellectual property or in this case a spiritual successor with a different name. |
Not sure why you're arguing then.
Anyway, personally I think it has enough of it's own identity to not be considered a spiritual successor to Dark Souls. A typical From Software game yes but it doesn't feel enough like Dark Souls to me. I can see why people would consider it a spiritual successor though.
