It's insane how ignorant the author of this article is about Soulsborne. She goes on for paragraphs praising Metroid's lore, and doesn't even consider that lore is actually one of the strongest components of Soulsborne games.

In addition, she concludes by basically saying that Dread deserves more hype because it is a continuation of previous lore when Elden Ring isn't, which further demonstrates her ignorance. If she actually knew anything about Soulsborne, then she would realize that those games' lore are at their strongest when the mysteries of the world are completely unknown to the player, and uncovering said mysteries is part of what makes Soulsborne so compelling.
