dark souls is so cool but it reminds me a lot of skyrim despite totally inverse approaches to lore (bare bones vs too much), in that like when there is any fandom it's hyper specific usually to like the general vibe + one person's specific random attachment to an npc they make endless fanart of
horse wine
2023-10-01T19:58:39.000Z
like they're just not character driven enough to accumulate Fandom fandoms
horse wine
2023-10-01T19:59:28.000Z
but there are so many people who care So Much about them, they nailed that

2023-10-01T20:09:23.000Z
that said im curious to know what you label Fandom because....soulsborne games have an EXTREMELY passionate fanbase
ᴍᴇʀʟɪɴ.
2023-10-01T20:10:48.000Z
art, fanfic, spin offs, long and varied dives into the story and meta and characters, a fanbase that will endlessly churn out Discourse

2023-10-01T20:11:47.000Z

moonjelly: OH YES I do know theres a very robust fanbase! I guess fandom isn't quite the word I'm looking for
boodle boy
2023-10-01T20:35:58.000Z
more like it's not one of those things I can randomly mention and have everyone and their mom chime in about their fave character like your Dragon Age's. which maybe is just that it's more niche? I'm not sure that theres a perfect word for the vibe
ᴍᴇʀʟɪɴ.
2023-10-01T20:36:33.000Z
