There's a story in SoulsBorne games? I know I offended a lot of people just now but the "story" in those kinds games always went over my head and I never gave a shit.

It's always been the combat and gameplay that made me a fan of the Souls series.

Which is why the way the present the story works in this rare instance. It's meant for the gameplay but if you want to know the story or backstory/lore/characters all that information is easily at your fingertips if you take 5 minutes to look but it's okay if you don't want too and want to slaughter demons

There is a story and it's pretty in depth.

Played 2/5ths of the games. Come back when you've finished your homework.

"He's never played Demon’s Souls and he (has)* Dark Souls II and III queued up, ready to go."

I'd rather have a new original game that stands on its own like Demon's Souls and Bloodborne.

Despite being widely considered the worst souls game, Dark Souls 2 easily has the best DLC by far.

Dark Souls 2 “Lost Crowns” Trilogy DLC Review | Entertainment Buddha

Overall, the Lost Kings trilogy of DLC is a fantastic addition to the Souls‘ series and in many ways, both outshines the core game and makes returning to it more enjoyable and richer, both in terms of loot that can be used, and lore that fills in missing story.
