It didn't. The game game with only two areas, everything removed. EMMM purposefully tore the game apart so anyone that wants to truly play it will have to install the patch and restore to how it was intended.
He just bypassed all the regulations altogether since he is technically following all of them.

Boy, shit is crazy. There is little anyone can say without spoiling the game. A simple synopsis would be: this is a world of twisted fairy tales. Your character is an Undead who still holds light in his eyes and vitality rather than being some mindless rotting zombie (hence the soulslike immortality).
The thing is that everything is twisted up. The world is turning into monsters called Demonbeasts. Your imprisoned character is rescued at the start by Jeanne D'Arc and so starts your adventure.
Now the reason I was so vague is that Black Souls gives you a lot of freedom, and consequences, for your actions. The world is moving just as you are. As it's told early in the game: this world is fucked, it's your choice if you wanna be some juste knight. You can kill whoever you dislike and take by force any woman that refuses you. True to that: the game gives you an option to KILL nearly all NPCs and an additional one to RAPE nearly all women.
There is a huge overarching plot that gets deeper the more to progress but due to how everything branches anything I can say further will be a spoiler. The first run of the game HAS to be blind. Because that teaches you how big the consequences of what you do, or don't do, cause.
