The base game has a narrative but it's extremely weak, and most of the important things happened a long time in the past, as with other Souls games. Shadows of the Erdtree, the DLC, is noteworthy for actually having a plot where things happen.

Even then I'd say it's still a pretty weak plot, and the delivery is awkwardly struggling against their usual style. Which is still an improvement Elden Ring desperately needed, and understandable when I have no doubt the direct writing style has suffered some atrophy.

Huh, saying that has actually made me a bit more optimistic for this adaptation, since they do show a consistent desire to improve and experiment. Not for the adaptation itself, but it might be a good learning experience if there's a lot of back-and-forth with A24?

If the director has a great sense of humor and a horror background, just make Hornsent the protagonist. Also Jar People please.

Most slop isn't made for my taste, so I'm honestly looking forward to it.
