I don't include Sekiro bc it's too diff from the souls games, but it's perfect. So I guess it would be at the top

Should as much as Atlus published Demon's Souls original and then didn't keep the rights. They were an Index corporation back then so eh.

I think I just made your point. But Atlus did somehow help From Software just by chance even though it didn't matter in the end.

The game plays fine but i remember actively hating how stupid the protagonist was. If it wasn't always better to have a full party of humans i would have stuck a golem in his spot.

He probably had that dopey "but why" act. People still like unaware protagonists from the FF era then. Anyhow. I just wanted to be a hipster doofus. And throw in that Atlus comment too.

Strictly based on how much I've enjoyed each game:

Elden Ring
Bloodborne
King's Field (II in Japan)
Dark Souls II (NOT a typo!)
Dark Souls
King's Field IV
Demon's Souls
King's Field II (III in Japan)
Shadow Tower
Dark Souls III
Enchanted Arms
Eternal Ring
Evergrace
Sekiro

Before someone freaks out: Sekiro is a fantastic game IF you enjoy that kind of gameplay. I don't. Sekiro is the only From game I had to force my way through and I didn't enjoy it at all. So why did I even play it? For the challenge. But never again.

Everything. Honestly I didn't beat it either. Mind I did get to the last boss but it was annoying, I needed to grind & I was already ready with the game.
But yeah, not gonna lie, FromSoft 3D modeling work has always been top notch & a lot of the golems looked cool af. The Pizza one included.

Going to leave off all the other stuff because trying to rank it is hard. I will say all the King's Field and Shadow Tower games are definitely below Elden Ring, but I still like them.

Of the ones I've played...

Elden Ring
Sekiro
Armored Core 6
Dark Souls
Dark Souls 3
Bloodborne
Dark Souls 2

Just to be clear I think they're all great games (even DS2) so it's not that those towards the bottom are bad imo. Bloodborne is where it is solely because it has performance issues and the build variety is a bit lacking, and one of those can be fixed pretty easy with a re-release.

I actually enjoy DS3 more than DS1, but a notable part of that is the fanservice that wouldn't exist without the previous titles. In isolation, it coasts by with the best bosses in the Souls games while the levels and world design are probably at the bottom.

Sekiro and especially AC6 are difficult to compare to the Souls games due to the genre shift. AC6 just appeals to me and I hope we get more. Sekiro is easily the most polished game they've done in the last 15 years, everything just clicks together.

Ultimately, Elden Ring is like a melting pot of all the best parts of the rest of their games, but it still has its own identity rather than feeling like fanservice. The fact that it also has the best difficulty options and exploration also help quite a lot
