Dark Souls - Finding HOPE In A World of Dark

Описание: Dark Souls is not a game that I would correlate with any ideas of hope, yet that is exactly what I am here today to discuss. In this video, I explore both Dark Souls 1 and 3 (including the Ringed City DLC) and how their narratives and atmospheres are filled with these ideas of hope. I dissect these games, analyse how they are hopeful, and conclude how exactly Miyazaki managed to integrate hope into such a seemingly hopeless environment.

Well, welcome back to another video! I am so happy after my last video got such a good reception, and so am back with another video – not that long after the first hopefully. I tried to follow the footsteps of my last video while attempting to step up the production value – not sure if I succeeded so do let me know! Also, my Twitter/X page is down below, if you want to follow. I will post updates on my life and videos so, if you're interested, make sure to drop a follow. As always, make sure to like and subscribe if you enjoyed the video and if not – that's okay – thanks for watching regardless, and I'll see you in the next video :D
