One of my biggest pet peeves is how little art or interpretations there are of the "outside world" of these games (or just mentioned locations in games in general), and most of the time the people who do make art about them just completely mangle the thematic tone the games have and end up shoving a bunch of skulls and blood and spikes everywhere because "hurr thats Dark Souls right??" There was a contest a few years ago where almost every entry looked like that, pmo so bad

This is one of the few good ones, its Windwail Knoll from Nightreign

could you tell me the name of the contest? Would love to look it up!
Never thought of seeing art of the other places, that's so cool

It was Vaatividyas "Unseen Lands of Dark Souls" contest that came out before Elden Ring. Some of them are alright like this one but a lot of them are Artstation-core if you get what I mean
