The True Story Of (The Rise Of) Dark Souls
553Gamers have always loved a challenge, and more-or-less since the dawn of the medium, players have been finding ways to make things more difficult for themselves. Then, in 2009, something happened that kickstarted a change in the games industry. FromSoftware released Demon’s Souls, the PS3 exclusive that introduced the world to the concept of “gitting gud”. It also paved the way for a game that would not only take the world by storm, but would spawn sequels, imitators, and even a genre of its own: Dark Souls. But how did this happen? How on Earth did FromSoftware so dramatically change the gaming landscape? Why did Dark Souls resonate so well with audiences? Is Souls-fever here to stay, or just another passing fancy? Here is The True Story of (the Rise of) Dark Souls.
