Best Soulslike that isn't from From Software

Board 8

there's a lot of metroidvanias that definitely actively feel like they take as much inspiration from souls (or else just other metroidvanias that that do) tbh, i feel like you could've easily fit a blasphemous game or grime here too, and arguably even ender lilies or dead cells. i'm even pretty sure if you did a steam tag search on both you'd get a pretty hefty chunk of all metroidvanias in the last decade, and i wouldn't actually disagree with them

anyway i guess this is a pretty difficult call for me since i don't tend to play many since i manage to get too motion sick for a lot of 3d games, which is kind of why i can say more about metroidvanias, and ac6 (which is more pick up and play because of its mission structure) is probably my favourite """soulslike""" overall. i wonder if rise of the ronin is good
