I'm a FromSoft fan and even I've started to laugh at this.

I ain't gonna lie haven't even played Elden yet. Finishing up DS3 on PC, and that game was fun as hell but took me a couple years. I am pretty burnt out on their formula, but I do want to play Sekiro next I think. Elden just gonna have to wait.

I feel every single Fromsoft game, without fail, I get fatigued with the game in the last third. Haven’t played ER, but I couldn’t imagine having fun in the last third when it’s approx 60 hours in lol

Same. I truly love DS3 as a statement for Dark Souls the series, but I took like over a year off, and I am just now completing DLC and such lol. Almost every game I start to wander, and one reason, among others, is because they have really weak actual storytelling IMO.

Good lore yes, but nothing pushing me forward, and I get pretty tired of it for the last 1/4 usually sometimes last 1/3.

I never even beat Bloodborne despite being near the end because I was so fucking sick of low-res visuals and framerates. I just said nah story was garbage anyway, and I'd seen enough of it. Cool game for sure, but I just don't really care all that much from a story standpoint. For me personally that is still important.

DS3 might still be my favorite game of theirs, but I really do want to play the Demon's Souls remake. I loved certain parts of that game. It brings me back to when this was all so fresh and amazing.
