“Don’t go hollow, now.”
There is so much focus on the lore of Miyazaki’s games, but not enough about how it also has hella meta commentary on games and players, too. One of the main ones is how death doesn’t matter, and no matter how hard things get you, the player, can overcome all these obstacles and beat the game if you persist.

Miyazaki? As in Hayato Miyazaki, the Studio Ghibli director? What video games has he done?

No, there’s a Hidetaka Miyazaki now, the head of FromSoftware who is unrelated to Hayao Miyazaki as far as I know. It took me a while to figure that out.

Ohhh!
Thank you, this makes much more sense in the context of a FromSoft game!

“The only only thing better than a poison swamp is two poison swamps.”
-Hidetaka Miyazaki, probably
