>>716245098 (OP)It's true. I love Dark Souls, it's one of my favorite games of all time, played countless runs, hundreds of hours, got all the steam achievements, yadda yadda yadda. But there's no fucking plot. And by that I don't mean that there's literally no plot, just that it's so minimalist that it might as well no be there. There's no engaging themes, no memorable characters (I'm talking about actual personalities, not boss designs), and the events that unfold throughout the game story-wise hold no emotional weight. And I don't give a fuck about the lore. I stopped caring about that shit when I got to my n-th fantasy book series back when I was a kid and realized that I couldn't be arsed to engage with yet another bunch of dry world-building fact encyclopedias. If it's not relevant to the plot, I don't care. I've never watched a single lore video about Dark Souls and I have zero interest to.
