Dark Souls III

First things first, yes, this game is pretty difficult. Difficult enough to make DS2 and Bloodborne look like Disneyland to me. I reached nearly the end of it and realized there's no other way but to call for help. For that get yourself a PlayStation plus subscription if on ps4 or the analogue subscription for other platforms. Playing online will make it easier and a lot more fun. My major rules for Dark Souls are - 1. Don't be afraid to fight 2. Keep the foes close 3. Play with no rage 4. Don't rush and take your time to explore.

Have fun! This is one the best games you'll ever play. Hidetaka Miyazaki has put an enormous amount of effort into every detail of this beautiful world you're likely to never forget. I wish there are more people like him in the entertainment industry loyal to what they are doing. What I would also like to specifically point out as outstanding is the soundtrack this game has. After hearing the beautiful piece of the early video preview released in 2015 I was certain we're to see and hear something epic, but the composers even exceeded my expectations. I can clearly say there's a fight where the score playing is so good I couldn't concentrate on beating the boss. So special thanks to Yuka Kitamura, Motoi Sakuraba and Nobuyoshi Suzuki. I thank the entire crew and everybody involved in the creation of Dark Souls 3. You're brilliant, guys! The very sad news is master Miyazaki announced this will be the last in the series. The good news is we'll get 2 DLC's. Either way I'll be revisiting this game frequently, to me Dark Souls never ends. I'm proud to be a fan of this game and before starting playing the next game waiting, I will be improving some of my skills for the upcoming DLC's. P.S. I really hope the ps4 remaster of the first Dark Souls is on its' way.

I knew From Software before it was cool but admittedly never liked their low-budget games until Demon's Souls turned them around. This 5th entry in the larger series feels like the advertised conclusion, and more variations will (and should) come but this is a good place to end the DS narrative. The story is easier to figure out that in DS II and most of it is a semi-sequel to the 1st entry. Reference to my beloved Berserk manga (one of the inspirations for the franchise) are also at an all-time high and the overall experience is best described as a "greatest hits" of what came before. The upgraded presentation comes from Bloodborne, the world is best compared the DS 1 and the combat is a refined version of DS II. The infamous difficulty is hard to judge, as I became too accustomed by now, but it should fit in the middle, with Demon's Souls as the hardest and Bloodborne as the easiest entry. The always fun multiplayer works as it should and the ability to summon up to 3 helpers (1 additional enemy will then also get a chance to invade) will ease the sometimes merciless bosses. Half of these were the only "real" challenge to me and I settled on the Havel armor and the Fume Ultra Greatsword. Tank for life! I further recommend to show the highly atmospheric game to someone else, as my mother uncharacteristically watched the 2nd half of my run with great fun Newcomer should lastly start with DS1 or the faster Bloodborne and graduate to DS3. This "final" dish needs to be savored after all and I could use a polished Armored Core reboot.

After the masterpiece that is Dark Souls and the mess that is Dark Souls 2, Dark Souls 3 concludes the trilogy by mixing aspects from it's predecessors together under modern physics and a lot of brand new ideas as well, and it makes for an absolutely fantastic game.

The combat is the most refined in the trilogy, and same goes for most of the bosses. Almost all of the bosses are great and the stand outs are absolutely fantastic, the best in the series. Also the atmosphere and storytelling is on par with the previous titles, the story being probably the best in the trilogy due to the buildup from being the end of the trilogy.

The only thing that bugs me and still takes Dark Souls 1 over this game for me is the level design. It is great in this game, the areas are vast and mazelike, and the world itself is huge, but the way everything connects into one cohesive and living world in Dark Souls 1 is not there.

Loved my time with this game, I still think the first game is the best though.

This was my second Soulsborne game. After playing the Demon's Souls Remake on Playstation 5, I decided to give this a try. I've got to say, I enjoyed Dark Souls 3 even more.

I said the same about Demon's Souls but, as a newcomer to the genre, these games are unforgiving, frustrating and sometimes infuriating. But so, so rewarding.

The bosses are interesting and really well done. After beating one I felt an incredible sense of achievement. But even minor progression such as finding a bonfire, opening a gate or making a lift operational to create a shortcut feels so satisfying.

Character progression is great, with many customisation and build options.

The level design is genius. The way the levels interlink is remarkable. As you progress, you'll walk out of buildings to open vistas of where you've previously been or where you are about to go. And these rare, comforting moments are a nice touch.

Hidetaka Miyazaki has created something infatuating with these Souls games. I literally didn't play anything else during my 50 hours with the game. And I cannot wait to play the others.

Maybe Bloodborne next.

This is weird. I think it has some of the greatest bosses of the franchise and it has some amazing game combat, but its story and level design let me down and I Wish it was more original.

I wish the game had been more like the last part the world grinding together to dust. It's just most of the game feels like I'm seeing characters. I've seen before and I'm like them, but nostalgia is not why I come for Dark Souls games.

I would say is to like this Dark Souls 2 is about names and kingdoms who no longer exist and you cannot find anything about it because all is gone. This game really sits value on the names of the characters from the first game. It wants you to really find the sadness and look at them again, but it's just not working for me. I wanted original not more of the same.

Word finally goes for me is the DLC because it feels like something news happening. It feels so interesting and good and the bosses are some of the greatest I've seen in the franchise is just like all of the production all of them mechanics go together in an amazing chorus, but sadly the story left me cold.

The one finger game legs is weirdness. I wish it was more weird. I would set more bad points. It's just like the first two games was so absurd Adventures but this one feels most Like A Boss rush at most points.

I have played it for way too many hours because it is an amazing game. It is the best game of the year when it came out it lived in bit cold at some park, but don't take it long way, it's amazing even if I get the feeling of being no inspired at some point.
