Thank you for pushing me on this. I've been wrestling with it all night, and I think in the last analysis I'm just afraid of change. Dark Souls has been one of the most important works of art in my life. The grim, determined, brutal optimism of the series kept me alive in the throes of utmost depression, gave me an experience of struggling with adversity that translated to the worst parts of my struggle to survive severe mental illness. I'm afraid that there's something delicate about it, and if it changes too much it'll break. But you're right - That's inside me, and my inflexibility. I should find more compassion for others, as well as more faith in the Fromsoft team to be better than they are and strive to overcome their own limits and setbacks. f
