And it’s also a flawed masterpiece while Bloodborne is essentially perfect! I adore both but I have to admit, DS3 and DS1 with their imperfect charms fit with the themes of decay that Miyazaki always approaches.

They make you FEEL all through the game what you feel when you fight Gehrman with that music. The emotion in Dark Souls resonates in a different way than Bloodborne and it’s hard to explain.
