Demon's Souls Remake is done. Alex and Mike are experiencing soulsborne withdrawal and are here to describe some recent entries in the genre to tide you over until Elden Ring. From the loot-based progression of Nioh 2, Gnostic worldbuilding of Mortal shell to the sci-fi horror of Hellpoint, join us for a jaunt through the best souslike games of 2020.
We use Neo-Thomistic philosophy to analyze video games as fine art. Against corporate & political interests, we argue they (should) exist solely to be beautiful: self-contained, self-justifying acts of worldbuilding.
