Art by me

I put this game off for a long time, all 3 Dark Souls. I tried Sekiro and Elden Ring, loved them. I told myself i was a souls fan without even having played this game. I wanted to do a marathon. I was afraid to give this a try because you can only have one first playthrough. Like saving the best food for last. Then i caved, what an experience. I went in blind and had every npc at firelink die on me over time, and at the end i was alone and it was such a crazy realization. I think my favorite part of this game was its use of liminal spaces and the feeling of being watched. Even though i was alone, i could never feel truly alone and there is such an eerie vibe to this game that nothing else can replicate. Everything in this game wants you dead, and wants you to keep going at the same time. Reminded me of daily life and my personal battles with mental health. I think the hardest boss for me was Manus for sure. On to DS 2!

nothing to say

I wonder which area it connected to

With new platinums/mythics would be awesome, also ports to the switch...straight dreaming with this post
