Dark Souls is literally just Legend of Zelda for adults, which had a stamina system at about the same time Kings Field did. It's honestly hilarious to me that it became known as the father of the genre, but the immediate copycats were also aiming for a similar tone to FromSoftware so I guess it's fair.
