10 Movies To Watch if You Love Playing 'Dark Souls'

Dark Soulsis a fantasy RPG from Japanese game studio From Software that introduced the world to a whole new subgenre of games. Though it was not the first game to utilize this format, it was by far the most popular, spawning a franchise and coining the term "Soulslike," referring to any video game that utilized similar mechanics. The hallmarks of a Soulslike game are generally a sense of profound isolation and loneliness, several large, boss-type enemies to encounter, a dark fantasy theme, and an emphasis on environmental storytelling rather than spoken dialogue, though spoken dialogue is rarely omitted entirely.
