People talk shit about Oblivion but watch the Wha' Happen on Demon's Souls and you realise Oblivion directly lead to Dark Souls and all related games. So few games can claim to have such an influence.

There's many games that could claim to spawn subgenres lol. So many indies live under the shadow of Cave Story and Yume Nikki. Ultima Underworld is basically why FPS (and Souls-likes for that matter) even exist. Every RPG can ultimately be traced back to at least one of these games: Wizardry, Ultima, and Rogue.
