I have to wonder if Dark Souls and the rest of Fromsofts recent offerings work on the same level to someone who doesn’t play a lot of video games the same way it does for me. One of my favorite things in those games is the subversion of expectations which only someone who plays a lot of video games would be expecting.
Or they end up seeing the best part of it, and it’s all downhill from there.
That’s what happened with me and anime. First thing I ever saw was Akira, sometime around 1992. Very, very few anime movies have even come close to measuring up to that first experience. So I actually don’t have a lot of interest in seeing much new stuff in that genre anymore.
That’s why my recommendations are chronological. You start with at least the best of the beginning so you dive head first into the best of the present (if any).
Fair advice but S1 of Adventure Time is pretty bad and most of the worldbuilding was forgotten anyway
Yes, but without the context of the first seasons, the following seasons would not have hit as hard as they did.
Yeah! Let me show you ant colony simulators. What we have here is something called Dwarf Fortress.
Man I sure do love the circus!
I think that’s very subjective to each person doing the recommending and also the person wanting said recommendations preferences.
