>>377714580
I dunno, what kind of games do you like anon? except souls of course. I'd recommend trying Morrowind if you're that much of a lorefag, but as a game it has its problems.
>>
>>377714978
Morrowind is about three million times the game Dark Souls will ever be, stop being a memester

Play real roguelikes like Angband variants. Lore doesn't really matter in such games.

I don't care, OP is looking for lore heavy games and I recommended him one. I enjoy both Morrowind and Dark Souls. I heard somewhere Warcraft had good lore that got raped by WoW?
>>
>>377714978
Something that's challenging.
I've played some Elder Scrolls games again, but they haven't aged well so something newer preferably

>>377715475
Wacraft 3's lore was good but not deep. Vanilla wow added a lot of interesting things. On TBC they started to realize that they couldn't take the game where they wanted while keeping the lore intact, but they still tried to keep things cohesive. From that point onward it was retcons and lore rapes one after another

just because they hide it from you doesn't mean it's actual good storytelling
>>
>>377716401
Not that anon, but dark souls lore is like having 1/3 of a jigsaw puzzle and the pieces don't uniquely match just one set
>>
>>377717320
there are very few games with better lore
dark souls and bloodborne are on par with average books, which is unbelievably good for a game

The best thing about the souls games was always the gameplay.
The lore and the setting is interesting, but the story itself is very meh.
>>
Souls games have terrible lore, what the fuck is this bait?

>>377718651
Alright then let's discuss Dark Souls' 1 lore, THE BEST GAME EVE!!1!.
>Land is ruled by dragons and light was nonexistent.
>For some reason, Gwyn and his bros existed, along with the Bitch of Izalith, some pygmy and Spooks.
>Seath Noscalie tells them about the dragons' weakness, lightning, which Gwyn and his buddies wielded now. Okay.
>They fight and the dragons were wiped out. Except not really because that would be boring. Everyone fucked off and did their thing.
>Bitch decided that the fire was running out and so she made herself into the worst boss in existence, and from the fire, demons came out. Also, she had children just because.
>Everyone panicked and Gwyn decided to light himself on fire, now the kingdom has no ruler and everything became worse. If only there was an alternative, too bad there isn't.
>Now some stuff happens, some knight went to fight Anus, didn't come back, so they built a waterpark. Cool.
>The world is fucked over and everyone laughs and coughs when they talk.
Mhm.

You can't explain Souls lore in a single post. That's how deep it is. If you missed it and simply didn't like it then that's ok, anons.

That's okay.

Souls lorefags are the worst. Well maybe not the worst, you're a step above ponyfags and furries but not by much.

The game just has general world building, gives you an idea and sense of things, that's it. There's no concrete lore or story.

Second Dragon's Dogma. basically Souls, kinda

Salt and Sanctuary?
All I know is it's supposed to be a blatant 2D rip off of Bloodborne. So I'm guessing they have a bunch of have lore.
I have no idea whether or not the game is any good. Maybe some anon here played it and can fill you in.

Write fiction, because that is essentially what souls lorefags do.

If you want a fuckton of vidya lore, get into the Elder Scrolls.

I don't mean to shitpost I'm actually curious as to why you would say this.
>>
>>377726295
Not deep, but it does have a player based narrative and finding shit out via visuals and such like Souls and BB. Then again many games are like that. Even FFXV did it with finding the books about the backstory on the gods.
