Inspiration: Fromsoft, Darksouls 1-2-3

Fromsoft are a video game company that have created another one of my most favourite franchises, Dark Souls.

These games are infamous for their difficulty, but I think its true likeability comes in its art style, the dark, gritty, lonely feel the game portrays adds so much to the game play that some people find the game hard to finish.



The art style of the concept artists that Fromsoft employ inspires me and I have used them as a reference multiple times throughout my university course and for my own personal artwork.

I love the lost, cold and ruined feel of the whole game , every single bit of art, game objects, characters help enforce the fact that the game is very hard, and there are no short cuts in the world of dark souls.

I love it when games art styles help enforce story, and mood and Dark souls is one of the best examples for this.
