I don't even remember who the convo was with or how it started but I was talking about God of War 3 with someone and it came up to the absurd number of cookie-cutter action games that are pretty much identical clones of it...and I had said that I thought that pretty much the granddaddy of those types of games was DMC, as far as the 3D slash-shit-up, collect souls to upgrade weapons/skills, inevitably get 3 alternate weapons with one being a spear/lance/bo staff type of deal, one being a shitty h2h that noone ever uses, and one being a giant lugging sword/hammer thing that is slow as balls.
Was there a different game before DMC that started it? I feel like there is but I can't think of it
