On paper it is what Castlevania: Symphony of the Night is — deep RPG systems, dark, oppressive atmosphere and melee combat — though the resemblance is mostly at that level. Both also lean on horror setting and single-player focus. The distance is in game mode and setting — its own ground is fantasy world and multiplayer gameplay.
