Dark Souls Has Cured My Depression - Here’s How

I swear, there’s nothing more cathartic than having an ugly-sob session brought on by some of the vistas in DS3, or by seeing the slowly growing family of lost souls in Majula. And that first time you realise just how (needlessly) wrecked the world is in the first one… *chef’s kiss, exquisite suffering!

I still don’t understand how a game can empathise that well with despondency, but it absolutely does. All of them do, but the Dark Souls installments especially.
