I've seen people and close friends mock this game as a "bad dlc" for Fallout 3 (???)

This goes for each Mega Man subseries, I took this one just as an illustration, each subseries has its core of similar functioning between its games

The Souls franchise shares a similar gameplay base and themes and aesthetics drawn from many fantasy genres
