Dark Souls is the awesome, the epic, and the quite frankly evilly challenging action role-playing game set in a nightmarish open world. Great drake's swoop and burn. The tallest towers are occupied by undead snipers and great giants, whilst the lowest depths are full of huge rodents and other monstrosities whose forms should never be shed light on. Undead adventurers just like ourselves fight and die all around us, often unseen but always present. What a world! Now, I have played quite a bit of this game before - maybe around to just before the half-way point - so I know a bit. What I've never really done is gone through trying to appreciate the game's plot, setting and story as much as the fantastic gameplay. The plot of Dark Souls is primarily told through descriptions of in-game items and dialogue with the various people (or things) that we meet throughout our journey. Players must piece together what vague information they obtain in order to understand the story, rather than having it laid out for them by the game - an approach I find uniquely intriguing. So THAT is what this LP is primarily for - we will be taking time to read item descriptions, muse on the environment and story, and wring as much information out of the characters as we can. This way we can hopefully gain insight into this deep and complex world and mythology. It's going to be fascinating. So come join me, friend, you're going to want to see what's beyond this cell door...
