Sekiro Shadows Die Twice - Tumblr Posts
someone just asked me what inspired me to write and come up with the stuff that i do, and i literally just have one answer for that person.
im a fromsoftware fan.
my first ever exposure of fromsoftware wasnt dark souls like many other people, but it was sekiro.
sekiro was the easiest to get into because of its more obvious storyline and characters. but holy damn, did it change everything. as soon as i saw this story and these characters i just wondered why arent more games like this??
but sekiro was only the start of it. i got into the dark souls series after a while, and i immediately got sucked in because i live for dark fantasy aesthetics and also...because the character designs and general art direction of the game was so unapologetically scary at certain times despite not being labeled as "horror."
i cannot express the amount of love that i have for these games. the amount of passion and love that was put into the lore just tells you how much this was just...made because hidetaka miyazaki wanted to share an experience he had a child. down to the way lore is told and the way the world is built, all of that is said in the games he creates.
it says a lot that dark souls was the only game that could make me cry with ONLY music, visuals, and not a single line of dialog in a boss fight. it says a lot that bloodborne was the only game that horrified me by making me think of the simple implications of its story. it says a lot that elden ring was the only game that challenged what i thought was the normal formula for gaming.
i am glad that miyazaki is being appreciated for simply being creative and wanting to give people an experience. fromsoftware has inspired me like no other, and i wish more people get the same opportunities that miyazaki had to be able to share their own vision.

Soulsborne Cities
Tumblr did a funny thing.
Soulsborne games are the gayest thing on Earth
We all love to talk smack about AAA studios doing queer rep wrong, but FromSoft actually gets what's up. Dark Sun Gwyndolin? Genderfuck and proud.
Darkmoon Knightess? In lesbians with Gwyndolin.
Chaos Witch Quelaag? Yes.
Lucatiel of Mirrah? She will be missed...
Sirris of the Sunless Realms? Point me to one straight woman who dresses like that.
Lady Maria of the Astral Clocktower? You try and tell me whether there's any heterosexual explanation for her cutscene.
Emma the Gentle Blade? Yeah, she can gently step on me.
Melina? She sticks with you throughout pretty much the entire journey and gives you her ride as a welcoming gift.
Ranni the Witch? You can (and should) marry her.
Malenia, Blade of Miquella? You will witness true beauty.
TL;DR: women are fucking awesome and so are Soulsborne games. Be gay for women.
