Fantastic titles made by people in their bedrooms.

I've never seen anyone else ever mention King's Field 🥹

You ever watch IronPineapple on YouTube?

He's a bit of a FromSoft fanboy, with his longest and most popular series being "Steam Dumpster Diving" where he searches the Internet for any games with a "Soulslike" tag and reviews them. He's spent more than a few videos talking about King's Field and FromSoft's other earlier games.

Also he made some absolutely nasty For Honor vids a few years back that I think are worth checking out even today.

From Soft pulled me in with the first Armored Core because I've always been into massive robots, so I checked more of their stuff out using the library dial up and found out about King's Field. I love slow dungeon crawlers and weird shit, so it was a match for me the whole way. Lunacid really plays it up too. You can tell the developer loves those old games.
