Walter grew up playing video games of all kinds on both console and PC, but has always found himself particularly drawn to RPGs. He considers himself a fan of RPGs for many reasons, such as the excitement of exploring fantasy worlds, and the freedom of choosing your character's unique path. His favorites include the "Soulsborne" games, which refer to titles produced by Japanese developer FromSoft, such as Dark Souls 1-3, Bloodborne, and Elden Ring. The Soulsborne games are noted for their remarkable difficulty, dark fantasy settings, and innovative "buildcrafting" mechanics; which refers to customizing the skills and equipment of one's character to adapt to a multitude of different playstyles.
Walter is looking for a new PC game to scratch his RPG itch. This game would understandably need to include elements typical of RPGs, such as exploration, character customization, and dialogue that affects the game's story. Furthermore, if the game were to provide elements common in Soulsborne games, such as high levels of difficulty and dark fantasy aspects, this would be the cherry on top.
