      Dark Souls and Monster Hunter have totally different gameplay loops though. There are also some differences in the combat that make them feel very different, like the lack of i-frames on Monster Hunter's roll.

      Arguably MonHun was an answer to Phantasy Star Online. So in a way, it was Sonic Team, under Yuji Naka no less, the people that really envisioned the real-time block-dodge-attack action RPG loop that would define both games series. Straight after developing Sonic Adventure too lmao.
