I highly doubt it. Dark Souls draws more heavily from your typical western fantasy and Berserk.

Dark Souls retards believe that Dark Souls contains the entire human culture and history. They're the jojofags of videogames.
To the subject, no, I don't see many similarities between souls and Night Land. The closest in vidya feel would be a classic roguelike like Dungeon Crawl. Similarly to the game, the majority of the book's plot is about a solitary warrior venturing further and further into the land of buttfuck horrors to retrive a precious item (a gf), and then returning back to safety. LARGE chunk of the novels is just the main character walking throuhg the landscapes and managing supplies and looking for a nice shelter to sleep in, like a session of Cataclysm DDA.

I don't know how people can sit and listen to a foreigner butcher the English language. It's video, not wideo, you fucking cretin.

I watched the vid. Mexican lad is just trolling the dark souls community while talking about the book, hoping for reaction just like yours i assume.
