Recently I got an itch to revisit one of my favorite games, Dark Souls. Something about that world left a strong impression on me when I first played it in 2015. The mystery, a lonely quest in some desolate dreamy world where once in a great while you might meet another similar traveler, resonated with me. Some kind of truth to it all.
I first wanted to draw my favorite locations from the game from memory but I could only remember the first three. I especially wanted to draw New Lando with its deep blue color scheme and the ghastly theme but I couldn’t remember too well the details. This inspired a new playthrough to refresh my memory. I wanted to capture how I felt about those areas and see what I can remember so that I could perhaps understand better what about them speaks so much to me.
