7 Most Complicated Video Game Stories Absolutely Nobody Understands

Dark Souls is one of the most difficult games of recent times. But what you don’t know is that the only thing harder than the game is understanding the cryptic item descriptions.

The story of Dark Souls is mainly told through out of context dialogue and environments that somehow hint at what’s happening. But of course, none of it makes sense unless you have the Dark Souls wiki on hand at all times. Not to mention that paying attention to your surroundings while being bombarded with knights and snipers becomes a jarring experience after a while.

The narrative is interesting with elements of insanity and grief (something the game itself will make you feel often). But even so, you’ll have to watch a lot of YouTube videos in order to even get an idea as to what the full lore of Dark Souls is like in its entirety.
