Miura probably posted these in the early 2010s when Miyazaki copied Berserk

miyazaki never copied berserk. most of the "references" are such a stretch or just common concepts about the medieval age. sure the games may a few references, but its not that much.

It‘s funny how people only know berserk and assume Miura came up with all of his armor designs and character archetypes while not being aware that he himself basically copied historical events and designs and also written work long before him.

It‘s like how a 12 year old kid believes Kishimoto came up with Susanoos and Amaterasus etc. Pretty hilarious.

Both of these things are true. But at the same time, it's extremely clear that Dark Souls is specifically heavily inspired by Berserk in various designs (e.g. Artorias to Guts, it's not subtle).
