‘Bloodborne,’ ‘Dark Souls,’ & The Unbearable Smugness of Games Culture
I tried to like Dark Souls and Bloodborne. I really did. If you actively enjoy these games, that is awesome. It’s just not for me. By all accounts, I should’ve liked it. I enjoy fantasy games, especially those that have—dare I say it—a darker twist. I like being challenged, and I like solving puzzles within games. That’s the fun of it for me.
That was the problem, though—these games (Dark Souls and Bloodborne, specifically) were not fun for me. In order to enjoy these games, in my experience, there are certain privileges that are necessary: time, money, and the dedication to the self-image as a gamer. The entirety of gaming as hobby, lifestyle, or whatever, requires these privileges. But in all my experiences as a gamer, these have not manifested so strongly as in the aforementioned games.
First, I’ll talk about the privilege of time.
You are thrown into the middle of the action of the story without any concrete idea about what is going on in the larger picture. It is easy to pick up the controls and hack away at enemies, but it was unclear to me as the player why any of what I was doing mattered in the larger narrative. Part of this apathy stemmed from the rate at which my character died. I know that this is a huge part of the game, and I know that “You Will Die” is the very edgy tagline of the Dark Souls series. It was more how the character dies rather than the frequency. The absolute loss of all the progress I made over the course of one or two hours would be completely undone by one lucky scythe to the face of my character.
wah wah
good lord
the privilege to…..git gud
U already bought the game…darksouls is like 4 dollars rn on steam
This post reeks of “git gud”
I mean even if you aren’t good, I played Dark Souls a little bit at a time and I beat it
As a working student, I could not justify spending that much time on the same parts of the game for days. I’m lucky—I only had to work one part-time job while going to school.
Yeah. Screw you. I beat the game as a working student doing full time college work and carrying a job, You only need to play it for 1 or 2 hours a session.

Man. Bowser is my “For Fun” main and it annoys me that people in the “scene” are starting to imply his “hooha” is too powerful and that the patch makes him too strong. Man come on. Its Bowser. He’s supposed to be a heavy hitter. It’s nice to see a heavy fighter being able to compete with ZSS/Shiek players and honestly I’d like to see more changes to lower tier characters so the scene isn’t so dull.
