I know I haven’t the best memory to simply name them off, but I know I have played games like that already. Maybe not in the boss focused rpg style, but enough that they wouldn’t really appeal on their own. But something like kingdom come or the witcher, but with all the goodness of elden ring bosses? I’d be down for that.
How about modern liminal settings. A subway car at 3am. A Waffle house restroom. A closed stripmall.

Not a Souls game but Alan Wake 2 has some great liminal spaces.
