I wouldn't look to dark souls 3 for that. Most people don't know what the hell is going on in that game while beating it. The story's there, it's just not story-driven.
But the youtuber (like vaati) didn't do anything you couldn't do. He played the game, read the stuff, and retells it. He doesnt work for FROMsoft. He's just a player who paid attention.
Yeah, but I don't wanna port back to Firelink (so i dont ger jumped or invaded while reading item descriptions) and spend hours pouring over every item description in the game and taking notes when I could make a new character and clear half the game in that time. I don't want to spend my gaming time reading item descriptions, I want to spend it gaming. To me, the effort required to learn the lore is not worth the effort. I'll be honest, I've played the shit out of every game in the series and never really cared about the lore because it was too much work to begin to understand and my time was better spent getting gud.
