I agree with anon here. This dumb shit is why I don't even bother getting into the fantasy genre. I just want to play and be entertained, and not have to study an intricate world with layers upon layers of deep lore without completely fucking up my progress.

my impression is that the OP is making fun of souls games for masking shallow dialogue with cumbersome vocabulary

I got elden ring recently. Played it for maybe 4 hours so far. I am utterly convinced that the narrative style is tounge and cheek. Like, actually a joke. That isn't to say it's not deep, or interesting on face value, but it's just so immediate; such a firehose of wackyness... It reminds me of metalgear, so much in its way of being simultaneously non-serious and serious.

I wouldn't be surprised; I do enjoy self-aware humor. MGS on PS1 was a fun one.
