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. 

Yes but that makes comparing these games almost impossible doesn't it :-p? Take the newly announced God of War game for example, that has a completely new feel and very different gameplay, so can we count that one in the future as something new? Or is it disqualified because it stil has God of War in the name? What about the new Red Dead game wich will probably be announced soon? Different name and maybe a lot of differences in gameplay, does that one count?
