the elden ring dlc story trailer just dropped so just letting you guys know that i’m gonna find a way to integrate elden ring lore into dunmeshi somehow because i need both stories like i need air to breathe

#aspects of both could definitely work in the same universe #my only hesitation in lumping both together is that i don’t really think they’re inherently compatible just because Fantasy Genre #the core themes of elden ring are so at odds with dungeon meshi lol #the shrouded path of seeking power mired in bloody sacrifice all in the name of ascending to godhood for your own ambition #(but not really bcs there’s always an outside cosmic influence so what of free will)#versus the humble everyday work of sustaining the self in relation to community as a way of living with purpose #(free will is the ultimate challenge to being trapped by your own desire)#themes are at odds but the narrative mechanics have core similarities #defeat the dungeon lord/legacy dungeon boss and obtain their power #also the premise of the shattering being comparable to the upheaval of mana in dunmeshi universe #and how it challenges the existing power structures #i have so many thoughts #i’m definitely gonna get the platinum for the ER dlc #so it’ll be a grind and you guys are gonna witness me in my gamerfail era #if it’s anything like the bloodborne dlc i’m ready to get my ass whooped #but i’m gonna love every second of it #wasabi rambles
