Knock on my door once again, and scream to my ears that Dark Souls III is the exemplar of its series, and I'm going to hit you with Zweihänder's R2.

Dark Souls III is the "what-if Dark Souls was combat only"?
Immersion? Nah.
Psychological reaction? What do you mean by that, utterlynowhere?
Emotions? Only anger and dopamine.

Dark Souls III is a narrow product, highlighting the series as merely games where you have to "master its technical aspects". A true-consequence of competitive capital-G gamer culture's dominance in video games.
