Dark Souls was released by FromSoftware in 2011 and became known for its punishing combat, minimal storytelling and stark user interface. Its menu sounds were kept deliberately sparse, so short confirmation cues like this cursor OK click became recognisable to players who spent hours managing inventories and character stats. As gameplay clips, challenge runs and parody edits spread on video platforms and soundboards, the isolated click was reused outside the game as a shorthand for confirming a selection, long after players had memorised it from repeated menu navigation.
