'We needed a much more fluid, elastic, and broad category that was inclusive and “queer” was, in many cases, an attempt to create that space—an anti-identity, in a sense. Relatedly, “queer” was a word that could be played with.'

Zohran also forces you to use the gender change coffin in Dark Souls 2.

Zohran will not allow you to pick the Master Key on your first playthrough of Dark Souls

I'm not sure I agree, considering you can draw a line as: Wizardry -> Dragon Quest -> Sweet Home -> Resident Evil -> DMC.

Especially the first one. The Itsuno titles focusing more on the combat than exploration makes sense considering his time on the D&D arcade Beat-em-ups.

King's Field was designed in part because so much of From were playing Wizardry at the time :P

I also love how this game describes its environments. The minimalism in tilesets actually heighten the narrative imo, forcing you to read the *excellent* descriptions, and engaging your imagination to paint a scene that would have been impossible to render in 1990.

I'm so glad I've been diving deep into Wizardry, because I can see so much of what I've loved in other genres. Wizardry 6's opening castle feels so much like a Resident Evil mansion, including excursions into neighboring environments with parts of the castle still closed off for later.

The text-adventure style narration for each room is really cool imo. I really liked the story that was being told on the 2nd floor from just narration, imagination, and room layout alone.
