i'm wondering /v/
considering the popularity elder scrolls and fallout has with normies, how come there were never any real copycat games made the same way there are a billion dark souls clones now? too much effort?
i'd even argue that these titles are even more normie-popular than dark souls, so what gives?

did you post in the wrong thread or are you just that insufferable?

RPGs take a massive amount of resources to make so developers are really pensive about making one.

Do you even play games? Maybe the blatant clones aren't everywhere but almost every game now a days forces a bunch of open world and rpg elements. Fucking driving games and sports games try to be skyrim.
Tons of games took inspiration from Skyrim. From Breath of the Wild to Final Fantasy XV. They just didn't make a total copy of it. Zelda is pretty much what Skyrim should have been.
nobody wants to make a direct clone because the development pipeline for how they do things is offensive
level designers don't want to have so little integrity that they're taking a bookshelf's model and burying 2/3rds of it through the floor in order to make a table
bethesda is so retarded that they're genius, it's not possible for other companies to be so lazy
even mobile game developers put in more effort to eliminate endless asset recycling

Nioh, Lords of the Fallen and The Surge.
That doesn't sound like a billion clones.
