Souls Week: Below disturbs the Soulslike formula

Prepare to die and die and die. Welcome back toSouls Week. This piece contains spoilers for the ending of Below.

You will take out countless camps of near-identical human opponents. In truth, I can’t calm down about the way Forbidden West looks. Someone made this, and you’ve got the option to walk around in it!

It’s fireballs and flailing tongues and weird spikes. And just walls and walls andwallsof tech trees, tooltips, and multipliers on top....

Welcome to Souls Week. With Elden Rings almost upon us, we’re making this weekSouls Weekon Eurogamer. Cyril Connolly It’s hard to conceive of an artistic medium more ephemeral than video games. Not exactly what an aspiring game designer might call “actionable intel.” The Soulsborne games teem with the psychological obtuseness common to mythology, the symbolism of dream worlds.
