Heyo thanks everyone for the recommendations I'll definitely try to give em' all a shot at least.
maybe Age of Mythology? They use mythos as units. Game is pretty fun with a great OST.
yeah that game does take a good use of mythologies even though they say it's not as diverse and more focused on Greek, Egyptian, and Norse but still that's impressive thanks I'll try it out!
OH YES, You're right I've only once saw the Last Bible Spin-offs on a YouTube Video briefly but it really does look interesting specially that it has a lighter atmosphere compared to most of the SMT franchise, I think I'll love em' thanks a lot !
Digimon perhaps? I feel cyber sleuth fits the bell perfectly (narrative and gameplay wise I mean, but you do also summon Digimon named after the seven deadly sins and there’s really heavy mythology inspired Digimon)
I had no idea about this one. it's art style is also very tempting, got to read more about it ! thanks.
Maybe devs or publishers are worried about the risk of offending various cultural groups with whatever depiction they'd end up with?
Yes, I thought there would be more games in these themes too, but unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be the case. As for the fear of people getting offended, I totally agree it's possible. Still, it's worth noting that only some religions are strongly concerned with depictions. Indo-European religions as an example (mostly polytheistic and rich in mythology) are a very good source to be inspired by for devs.
So yeah, I also feel like this is a theme that sadly hasn't been and can still be explored and still had lots of potential.
I can really only think of a couple mythologically themed Soulslikes or Action games - Muramasa, Nioh 1/2 or the God of War series would broadly fit the bill, I suppose. Oh and Labyrinth of the Demon King!
I didn't know anything about Muramasa and Labyrinth of the Demon King, thanks a lot they look interesting and I'll go after them.
Chaos Rings III (PS Vita)
the game looks really fun and the aesthetic low key remind me of ps2 era final fantasies, thanks !
Yes, the deal of SMT is being a Pokemon-like game by using mythical creatures against mythical creatures therefore it's the only game series regarding topic.
yes that too might be the reason, thinking about it a game about fighting mythical creatures against each other isn't the most ordinary thing so it makes sense if there's less of it.
In that regard your options are very limited to these games: God of War series, Witcher series, Okami, Ghostwire: Tokyo, Folklore (PS3 game), League of Legends, Dota 2 and whatnot games.
FYI it would worth to mention just in case that Persona series are part of SMT series as a spin off series that has the core SMT stuff regarding mythical creature collection and fighting with these creatures using your creatures, but these games are more about having a high school setting.
Folklore seems like a cool game never heard of it before but it does look beautiful thanks ! oh my bad I should've mentioned sorry, I know about Persona and played the third one for a little. yes even thought it has a specific focus on High-School Simulation (if we can call it that) Persona and most of other SMT Spin-offs all look pretty impressive.
thanks I'll check it out.
