Hidetaka Miyazaki and the games he has directed at FromSoftware inspire me on multiple levels. He championed a radical approach of making unforgivingly challenging games, going against the grain of what was popular at the time with his first “Souls-like” game.
As a result, the company has amassed a cult following, with dozens of YouTube channels dedicated to exploring its game lore. In recent years, their titles have won the most prestigious gaming award in the world twice.
To me, Miyazaki and FromSoftware epitomize integrity and bold thinking.
