>both got their big breaks on kickstarter >roughly around the same time >first big release was a 2D game with the word “knight” in the title >both dropped all kinds of free DLC as supplements to the original title >both took nearly a decade to release a follow up>both sequels have the word “hollow” in the title >both draw heavily from soulsborne titles despite not being one themselves per ses Am I crazy here? Is there actually any connection? Is it all just a coincidence? Is one company copying the other? Your thoughts:
>>740786423Oh, and I almost forgot- >both original titles featured a male protagonist, whereas both sequels feature a female protagonist >female protagonist wearing a prominent red cloak

I don't think.
>>740786551Huh, weird coincidences.Also isn't the knight genderless like every vessel?
>>740787203I have to admit- that was genuinely some of the cringiest shit I’ve seen in a long time
>>740787647No tits=male.
>>740786423>>740786551Meds
>>740786423Just coincidences. Bloodstained and Blasphemous also followed very similar trajectories.
>>740787558You're not.
>>740787647Actually yes. I remember playing through it again, and being mindful of how characters mentioned the knight, especially when you save that one girl from the starting town. And, invariably, she referred to the knight in as neutral a way as possible. Her passion being directed towards Zote later on only made it worse, since she refers to him, of course, as a male. So yes, the knight being genderless is a deliberate, if subtle, detail.
