The Souls games wouldn't have happened without this either. I think both are good, but the fusion makes something special. You get all the best parts from both cultures. It's the same for food or whatever else. Combining the best parts that different groups bring in creates something that no individual group could have done alone.

Devil May Cry comes to mind, as well. If I'm not mistaken that game was entirely developed with Western audiences as the target demographic.
