Comment on TV Tropes' list of video game spiritual successors
hitmyspot@aussie.zone 8 months agoLol, the last of us as spiritual successor to uncharted. They have some similarities in control and game engine, but hugely different tone, themes and gameplay.
One a heartfelt zombie horror survival, the other a spiritual successor to tomb raider, itself a spiritual successor to Indiana Jones.
This list is not useful.

Yeah, absolutely right. “X is like a new part of Y” must make sense for being a successor. Nobody will say “Last of Us is just like Uncharted IV”!
