Yeah, so as the title asks: Are there any apocalyptic fantasy games? When Dark Souls 3 was still in development, the developers said they were making it more apocalyptic in feel compared to the previous instalments. Sounds like my cup of tea I thought, but when the game came out I was a little dissapointed. Not in terms of gameplay, but the lack of the promised apocalyptic atmosphere. Pre-release screens showed things a sun that was bleeding a black ooze, but outside of the last few hours the game didn't feel any more apocalyptic than it's predecessors. The world felt abandoned but not dying. The sun still shines almost through the whole game nad vegetation seems to be blooming, which is a far cry from the "world burned to ash" that was marketed.
So are there any fantasy games with a distinctly apocalyptic scenario. I guess it kinda requires a specific aestethic to feel truly apocalyptic, since in a lot of fantasy games the world is in danger of being destroyed but it doesn't look the part you know?
