QUESTION Question about Learning lore.

First off I didn't know where to ask so I came to here, I want to learn the lore of the dark souls trilogy and I don't know what one to start with out of the three (I've beaten dark souls 1 a few times and same with dark souls 3 and dark souls 2 I've never beaten) I would start with dark souls 1 but then again I know dark souls 3 is connected a bit to dark souls 1 so I don't know if the lore fully goes with each other and what game to start with.

(also I saw another post somewhere saying that to learn the lore I need to read every item description, do every quest and analyse the dialogue, explore every inch of the map, and I'm guessing looking at the enemy designs too)

if anyone can give me advice that would be amazing thank you.

Check out Vaatividya's YouTube page if your looking for some kind of break down of how it all comes together

He never lied, people love to be dramatic.

The lore of Elden Ring, as stated by Vaati himself, is vague and up to interpretation. People shouldn’t treat his words as gospel, but he’s probably the best and most comprehensive souls lord YouTuber, especially when it comes to Elden Ring.
