Gaming concepts

Exactly, there's nothing wrong merging certain genres together. But when you do, you get crapped on (Like Castlevania). I loved Darksiders because it was so similar to Zelda yet had it's own take on it. It was about being one of the four horsemen in a world that's falling apart. The gameplay mechanics borrow a lot from Zelda which is good. Having a button assigned to a certain item, with similar puzzle elements and quite basic(in a good way) combat. It makes no sense.

Also GoW and DMC are too very different style of games. DMC(and Bayonetta) takes a few months to master the controls. GoW is a pretty basic mash Square button.
