>He says it's because Dark Souls brings together a bunch of various design aspects that attract many types of gamers while also not putting a specific emphasis on any of them, allowing different types of gamers to find a niche within the game that they connect with.
I played all the souls games to completion, including bloodborne and I'm just not seeing this. I'm not an expert but I hardly half assed them. I tried multiple builds, I explored every corner, I beat all the bosses and I had fun, but every time someone goes on about this franchise they act like it's almost this euphoric moment of clarity and brilliance or some shit. It's just a solid well pull together action rpg. I'm sick of seeing everyone act like everything it does even all its flaws being treated as some master class of game design genius. I swear there's not a thing this franchise does that someone's not writing a thesis on.
