New Tag: Souls_(series)

Just as the title says, a new tag that is implied for all tags related to dark_souls, demon's_souls and the upcoming DaSouls 2. It's a franchise by now so it imho deserves this just like Monogatari or Fate.

I think it should be souls_(from_software) instead. Just "souls" is potentially ambiguous for a series.

Is there any actual connection between Demon's and Dark, I was under the impression Demon's was basically a test run and Dark is where they're going to be worldbuilding from here.

It's like Danganronpa, SMT or - to use a maybe more fitting example - The Elder Scrolls. Sure, there are a lot of differences, but there are plenty of similarities and the way the lore is established, the design and the entire gameplay are very similar.

Speaking of Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, Oblivion and Morrowind should have a similar implied tag as well (elder_scrolls_(series)?).

"The Elder Scrolls" is fine; there really isn't a need for adding (series) onto the end, IMO. If one were tagging an Elder Scroll (the object), then the tag elder_scroll can be created.

So, what's the consensus now?

Sorry for doubleposting, but I suggest we do the following implications:

demon's_souls --> souls_(from_software)
dark_souls --> souls_(from_software)
dark_souls_2 --> souls_(from_software)

Is a new thread needed for this?

Same thread is fine.

Not sure why you said TES either, that has established lore/world/etc that carries from game to game whereas this has none of that.

I still don't see the connection but whatever, I'm not going to fight it further.

It would probably be wise to not include Demon's Souls since it's technically separated through Sony's ownership of the copyright.

Its sketchy I guess, but did:

create implication demon's_souls -> souls_(from_software)
create implication dark_souls -> souls_(from_software)
create implication dark_souls_2 -> souls_(from_software)

Ideally we wouldn't put a company in the qualifier at all but since there's no other good one we're stuck with it and I'd rather get them all together.

create implication dark_souls_3 -> souls_(from_software)
