Yes, I realize that King's Field was a precursor to Demon's and Dark Souls as FROM worked on this series previously themselves. There were a host of RPG's that likely bridged the gap from the early 80's until now as well, starting with a game like Guantlet culminating with more recent titles like Shadow of the Colossus. But what did Miyazaki play as a kid? For whatever reason I forgot that the most beloved games I played in the 80's were of Japanese origin...just like Souls games. So this is the first in a series of oldie game walkthrough's that attempt to uncover early ideas that eventually ended up in Souls. I only played a couple myself, Rygar, Black TIger, and Ghosts and Goblins come to mind, but I was not solely a gamer and admit not expanding my horizons on the gaming front as a kid...can anyone think of any others? Has anyone ever asked FROM staff what they liked to play as kids?
