but that's not interesting to me. i want immersion. that's also why their multiplayer aspect seems like such a weird idea.

Then they might not be the games for you. Immersion is probably the last thing I'd really think of for Souls. They're very much a series of videogames that feel like videogames, especially when you realize how many of the assets and animations get re-used from game to game.

that's... the most concise way to explain it i've ever seen, and something that has never clicked for me until now. it's always looked to me like this lore-heavy dark RPG and i've never been able to square the gameplay with the feeling. hearing that it was never supposed to gel at all and it's all just background noise makes a lot of sense, and made all the remaining curiosity i had for the series disappear.

now if only other games could stop getting infected by the fromsoft bug...
