Beware of the "Fromsoft" Pipeline

What it means

A six-panel progression shows a person gradually changing from casual clothing into increasingly edgy and revealing dark-fantasy-inspired outfits, paired with covers of FromSoftware games: Dark Souls, Dark Souls III, Elden Ring, Sekiro, Dark Souls II, and Bloodborne. The joke is that playing FromSoftware games supposedly leads someone down a predictable style pipeline, transforming their aesthetic into a gothic or anime-influenced look.
