    Agree. I like it when game developers make their games chock full (?) of content without ever forcing players to experience it. They made the game and after that it’s the players’ responsibility to find their enjoyment in the game.

    In this day and age, it’s getting increasingly difficult to go play a game completely blind without looking up any guides, tutorials, what not. Probably because of FOMO too but also because players have a tendency to optimise the fun out of their games, at least somewhat.

    Recently started playing Warframe and while I’m taking the advice of a YouTuber to specially not to look up guides and tierlists and experience the game as blindly as possible, I’m just invested enough to want to look up videos on the game. Might be the same thing for soulslikes for other people. Heck, I remember listening to the Paleblood Hunt audiobook on Spotify whilst playing Bloodborne for the first time even though I hadn’t experienced the content talked about in the episodes yet.
