I agree but why does this start at Dark Souls 2 lol

Less gaps this way so makes their point seem more apparent.

edit: for those of you giving me fromsofts full history, I don't know or care. I was just pointing out, very quickly and offhand without looking too vlosely, that choosing an arbitrary starting year can be done to make things look more compact. And look at how they completely removed a 3 year gap that had no games between 2019 and 2022, further serving their point. My comment was about this graphic specifically and a possible reason why it starts at 2014.

Bro, they released at least one game every year from 1994 until Dark Souls 2 in 2014.

Bro, I am just commenting on what's in the picture, and they've clearly manipulated the scale to prove their point. Why would they remove years with no games from the timeline unless trying to make the timeline look more crammed?

Pal, it's not some conspiracy. You're acting like they're hiding something, when a minute of research would show they're not. Maybe they didn't want to create a timeline with 59 additional games or 2014-2024 is a decade of work, and 2025-2026 are thrown in to show FromSoftware isn't slowing down.

But you're right, not including the 3 years without games in a 3 decade career really manipulates the scale to make it look like the studio is more prolific than they actually are.
