It's a bit disappointing that, despite reasonable categorical and IP hurdles, it doesn't somehow include DeS or Bloodborne, the real bookends to this series, though.
I had the same thought, but honestly for that price it's already a steal.

you were driving, proselytizing, and literally buying people tickets to ride!

In all seriousness, there's a bigger problem with me and games in general. I dip my toe in a bunch of different games, but Dark Souls truly was the last game I fell head over heels in love with, and it's as old as my son at this point. So to bring it back around, this book is a way of me reliving how much I loved that shit, without having to play it again.
So this is coming out in a few weeks, and despite having pretty much fallen face-first off the Souls bandwagon in recent years, I'm actually a little excited about it. Already preordered and made room on my shelf
But after the Darkest Souls, DS2... now you won't even play DS3
Compounding that utter hubris, I got my hopes all up for Dark Souls 2 and then felt utterly abused by how half-ass it was. Before I knew it, my love for the series had gone hollow.
Should I be concerned if I'm one of the 3 people around here who actually liked Dark Souls 2?

I liked the hole.
Something about the atmosphere and lore really cemented my want to keep playing and researching little tidbits. The fact of the flame and lord souls being a cycle, that regardless of your decision it will come again, moved me along. Souls 1 had a clear path, a clear villain. 2 was vague as hell. I completely understand why many had issues with its presentation.
The queen being the culprit and using her expert level hypergamy was a nice touch.
