Counter-point: there are always unassailable forces in Dark Souls. Giant immortal trees, Gods who disguise their siblings corpses and paint you as a murderer if you try to do anything about it, the fading light of the age of fire, actual countless giant "amygdala" creatures bigger than the one you get to fight in Bloodborne.

There is always this sense that no matter how much you fight, nothing really changes. It's just a slightly less populated ruin.
