Regarding the above discussion about Souls-like games: I don't have much experience with Souls-likes, but my hunch too is that it's being used because it's trendy, not because it necessarily makes for good games in all cases. It's probably great for many games, but some (many) devs are probably jumping on the bandwagon because it's popular, not because it's their thing. Because of that, it's a great way to get me to ignore such games, because I trust only the best of the best Souls-like games to be worth my time.
