I saw a tiny bit and they seem legit, they gave content creators early access to the DLC and now there’s a lot of gameplay, bosses, and story being spoiled on social media. Be careful out there.
I agree, those are those play for the gameplay games, I don’t want to sit in a menu for 20 hours reading lore and still don’t know that I’m missing the necklace that explains why the jesters head was cut off or some stupid shit.
These games are made for some passionate fan to explain the lore in a way for others to grasp and that’s not always a bad thing. Still friggen stupid though.
Well, I personally love the Lore/Story. But I also love Games like Majoras Mask with lots of speculation and mysteries. If I play a Souls Game it feels like I’m an archeologist, most of the story is told by looking at the environments and reading old descriptions for Weapons/items.

Also, lots of people really care about Souls story for some reason.
I love me some souls games but i’m not sure i’ve ever gotten much of the story from the games. I always have to go read about them on wikis.
The story/lore is from reading all the item descriptions and talking to everyone, gotta find it yourself unlike most games.
It’s still not good lol

The story is much better told through Vaati’s words. And his voice is very soothing to listen to.
