Contando con que es el primer 'Souls' que he logrado pasarme tengo que decir que es un videojuego de una gran calidad. A su vez con todas esas mecánicas y características que hacen especial a la saga este Souls además cuenta con una gran dificultad que obliga al jugador a estar en constante concentración. Aparte también destaca por una interesante y fascinante historia que hace que te sumerjas en la narrativa y pongas mas desempeño en intentar estar a la altura de las diferentes situaciones que te plantea el videojuego. En resumen me parece una muy buena primera experiencia con esta saga lo cual me va a animar a probar tambien los demas lanzamientos de Miyazaki. Muy recomendado. Mi nota real sería 8.5. Expand

Ну а баги есть в каждой игре, просто в дарк соулсе они сильно подбешивают. В целом, это шедевр в мире РПГ, я не знаю игры более подходящей, чем Дарк Соулс в этом жанре. Ставлю 9/10 только из-за багов и мультеплеера, касательно остального - 10/10. Expand

    A revisiting of the OG action RPG gameplay that FromSoftware pioneered in the first game that does not fail to do the series justice and even surpasses it in some ways.

    Weapons once again have plenty lot of variety, and there are tons of unique regions to explore with plenty of bosses to fight. The UI has been optimized to give more convenient access to every function. PvP is once again the same old invasion system that made the original game great (although the ability to disable forced invasions is questionable as it takes some of the Dark Souls identity out of the game).

    There isn't much to say about this sequel as it is essentially more Dark Souls for fans who couldn't get enough of the first. Ranged is once again underwhelming, which is a personal peeve, and there is cheese potential with some bosses (of which are overall harder than they used to be). But the beautiful graphics and picturesque world make up for these shortfalls.

    The final boss fight was definitely the most challenging but also the most satisfying, as you genuinely needed to learn and memorize the boss's moves in order to defeat them. Their defeat simply makes you crave more to play. I will definitely be looking forward to further sequels, or Bloodborne, if I can get my hands on it. Excellent work, FromSoftware.

    The worst console port I've ever seen

    - Clunky controls and combat. Controls on a keyboard don't even work half the time
    - Terrible graphics
    - Bad UI which is also broken, It shows you controller icons when using a keyboard and mouse, why? Lazy programming.

    The game is most impressive technically - the controls are very smooth and responsive - certainly the best out of the 3 Dark Souls games, and the graphics are a visible upgrade from DS2. The world looks gorgeous, expansive, and detailed, while still maintaining that dark, desolate Souls feeling.

    The final entry in the DARK SOULS series is out of ideas. It's not the train wreck that the horrible second installment was, but it's not really good either.
    There are notable improvements over the sequel in the enemy design - no more fighting 4 similar bosses, this has been somewhat reduced. The ridiculous amount of bosses has also been drastically reduced, which is much better (DS 2 obviously ran out of ideas, so they just copy-pasted a few bosses in each corner). Bosses now have 3 "stages" and change their patterns in each stage - this was carried over from BLOODBORNE.. I can't say I'm a fan of this, but I can see why die hard DS fans might applaud this.
    You will be revisiting Lordran and some areas of DARK SOULS 1, you will also fight a few old enemies. Whether this is good or bad you will have to decide for yourself. The complex level design of DARK SOULS 1 and its originality aren't here, but it is a step up from part 2 nonetheless.
    Die hard fans of SOULS games will probably love this entry, I did love the original DARK SOULS and my favorite out of these "type" of games is BLOODBORNE, but I wouldn't consider myself a fan of the "SOULS-genre". If that applies to you as well, you might want to pass this one.
    Something worth noting: the mouse + keyboard controls are still terrible, so don't even try playing this without a controller!
    Visually this is of course the most impressive entry in the series with some just marvelous vistas to behold. The art style is just gorgeous. Then it takes a step back with rather outdated textures.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I'm not going to write this review like a lot of others and jump on the bandwagon of LOVE for this game like everyone else does. I intend to be honest about every game I review and always will. I don't like to mislead people.

    Now, as for the review. This game is pretty good, as far as difficult, medieval action/rpg's go. I won't go into the specifics of the story in this game, since that's worth experiencing all on your own, but I will explain more or less the ingame mechanics.

    There's Melee combat: Swords/Shields/Greatswords/Greatshields/Spears/Halberds, etc.

    Ranged Combat: Bows/Longbows/Greatbows/Throwing Knives, etc.

    Magic Combat: Sorceries/Miracles/Hexes/Pyromancies, etc.

    In essence, you also have many stats in the game that determine your Health, Stamina, Mana (FP) , and your damage with specific weapons/weapon classes. For example, Strength/Dexterity will increase melee/ranged damage, and Intelligence/Faith will increase magic damage/effectiveness of miracles.

    And some may not understand what these are. If you're totally new to these types of games, I'll explain it here:

    Sorceries are basic magics. The damage scales mostly through Intelligence.
    Miracles are lightning-based magics or healing spells. They mostly scale through Faith.
    Pyromancies are fire-based magics that scale through both Intelligence and Faith.
    Hexes are dark-based magics that also scale through Intelligence and Faith.

    Melee weapons/Bows/Shields are more self-explanatory. You'll typically have to sort out which combination of equipment/armor you wish to use.

    As for the gameplay itself. Imagine this game is a lot like a boss gauntlet. You are essentially going from area to area fighting enemies around every corner, and you'll come across various fog gates. These will either open up new sections of the area you're in, open up shortcuts, or lead to boss rooms. And there are many, many bosses in this game! 19 in total, 6 of which are optional. There's also DLC which adds a ton new areas/items, as well as adding an extra 6 bosses in total.

    As far as the actual combat is concerned, you have obviously your health and stamina. Health gets too low? You're dead. Stamina gets too low? You won't be able to run or dodge, and likely get hit by an enemy's attack. By upgrading your health, you can take more hits. With stamina, you'll be able to run longer, and dodge-roll more while still having stamina to spare for a few attacks. Dodge rolling is very important too, as that will give you invincibility frames to avoid enemy damage. You can also use a shield, but be wary, not every shield will block 100% of all damage, and there are many different elements that shields can resist.

    As for the weapons themselves. Every weapon has a stat requirement to use. They also have damage scaling, as I mentioned before. This is important, because depending on it's rating, you will gain extra damage from that weapon when you upgrade the specific stat.

    Scaling goes as follows. E > D > C > B > A > S. From worst to best. So if a weapon had S scaling in Strength and E scaling in Dexterity, it would do more damage with each point in strength instead. Every weapon has a variable stat in this regard, most go between A and C. Very few are as good as S, or bad as E. Weapons can also be upgraded to improve their scaling.

    And finally, once the game has been finished, you can go through again, and again, and again... Infinitely. This game has a NG+ feature, with each new playthrough, the enemies become stronger and gain more health. I believe this difficulty of NG+ caps out by the time you reach the 7th or 8th playthrough of the game.

    Overall, I have to recommend this game, simply because there are so many possibilities with weapon combination, spell usage and even a PVP mechanic, but everything I could say about this game would fill an entire library if I had the time. It's certainly not perfect, and it has it's fair share of annoying bosses, overpowered bosses, and even deceptively easy(?) bosses. The paths you take and the enemies you face are your decision alone, I'll leave the rest for you to discover. Happy hunting!

    Fair. - Less enemy spam more 1 vs 1 duels.
    Variety - Tons of weapons with customizable materials/elements and a lot boss weapons which feel very unique.

    [Bosses]
    A lot high Quality Bosses which are 1 vs 1.
    Study him.
    Learn him.
    Kill him,

    [World&Story]
    World and Story are one category because they are the same here.
    The world tells the story.
    The items tell the story.
    And if you dont want story thats also fine.
    No cutscene spam and you aint forced to read items.
    If you dont like the NPC talking to you all day ?
    Kill him and get his dagger.
    The world is beautyful and detailed.
    Levels are interconnected and you can see in the skybox the places you gonna visit later in the game.
    Its not as complicated as DS1 and DS2 which is for me a little negative point but I can imagine that some people like that.

    [Graphics&Tech]
    The World itself looks great but the Graphics are mediocre and the PC Options like 144Hz and Unlocked Framerates do not exist.
    Thats the biggest reason why this aint a 10/10.

    [Multiplayer]
    The Idea is as always nice and fun but in my opinion it would be more fun when you wouldnt know that you are getting invaded.
    Also the server speed could be faster for example you hit someone and the knockback animation of the enemy comes too late.
    But still you can always go online to Aldrichs Bonfire and do some pvp matches after you finished the game with a lot of player online which is most of the time fun and fair.

    [Conclusion]
    This is a Singleplayer experience you have to do atleast once.
    Its the best Dark Souls for players who never played a Souls games before.
    And when you love it there no way back.
    Suddenly a lot other games will feel boring/repetitive for you.

    Dark Souls 3 is the most polished in franchises. It has abundant of weapons, stages and enemies. The mana system and weapon's skill are well added that give players more variety.

Actually I have played this game in PS4 before, at that time I wasn't impressed much since I compared it with Bloodborne but now again on PC 60 FPS with all dlcs I think this game are all-around well made and deserves very high score.

    Anyway, the game does locked at 60 FPS, which is a shame for high end PC users. NG+ does not offer something different as I have expected. Graphic in my opinion is just ok. I felt like the game was designed for console not PC. However, if you have joystick, it won't be a problem. Gameplay is pretty much like other DS so it could feel repetitive and tired sometimes if you have played other games already.

    For me, as a casual gamer, DS3 was hard. I spent nearly 3 hours trying to defeat the very first boss, but when I finally did it, I felt great. The music, the whole world itself is amasing. The best game I've played so far.
    Sure, sometimes this game can be frustrating, and it WILL be frustrating, but in the end you think to yourself: "This was hecking cool. I am hecking cool."

    Básicamente el Dark Souls 1, pero en HD y con todo nuevo, que mas se puede pedir? tal vez la música no sea tan increíblemente memorable como la del primer juego, pero también es buena, el juego es genial, y las gráficas ayudan bastante. Sin duda una obra maestra de Miyazaki y el equipo de From Software.

    I'm giving this game a 3 on the PC because of how broken it currently is. I've had crashes to desktop, hitching where the game will stutter for a second and will not get any controller inputs, controller input lag, invisible walls that prevent you from moving and I've fallen though the world 3 times so far.

    If you want to buy it on the PC I'd suggest waiting till they fix these issues and Nvidia update there drivers.

After beating the game I feel like their is still so much for me to go back and do, from tiny side bosses to entire character story lines I haven't explored, the game has so much replay value it shows why From Software is praised for how much content they have put into so many of these projects. The world it's self seems to be always in a state of decay even though greenery is nearly always present, making the world's atmosphere feel more thought out and storied then simply everything being dead. The game play is weighty and fun, making bosses tense and even small encounters still require your attention, even at high levels I found that beginning areas could get me low on health if I wasn't careful. Then, the music, the best part of this game bar none, the cacophony of both beautiful melodies and tense weaving courses make this game a joy to listen to, which makes the quite moments where you can hear distant creatures and your own steps even more tense.

    The game does suffer from some bugs I encountered, from going through the floor of a lift, to having NPCs simply stand and watch me because they don't know how to walk up steps directly to the left of them. Dumb deaths (Like phasing through the floor) can be frustrating when you can lose all of your Souls (XP/Currency) that way. Other then those grievances I had no other problems.

    Overall the game is worth playing, I enjoyed the game immensely and is a solid 9/10

    Fun Challenge I did on my first play through Every time you die, do 10 Jumping jacks, when you die with humanity restored do 15, when you die as a Summon do 20. I wouldn't recommend it, but I thought it was a fun little side thing, so I thought I might as well put it in, if you want to try it yourself.

    Was not expecting to get as engrossed in the game as I did. After spending 2 hours on abyss watchers on my first play-through, I was starting to regret picking this game up. I then made a new character and this time carefully traversed through each area, making sure to explore everything. This game ended up being one of the most satisfying and rewarding experiences I've played in a while.

    This game is so derivative and has the most linear progression, making it in my eyes the worst Souls game. Combat did feel the best though, even better than Bloodborne. If you are in it for the mechanics or how a game feels/plays this may just be your dream game.
    So, in a way this is the pinnacle of the Souls series as it will inevitably "evolve", Sekiro already feels very different. And

Als mit dem Untod verfluchter "Unentfachter" kämpft man sich durch eine erbarmungslose Fantasy-Welt in der an jeder Ecke der Tod lauert. Dabei droht stets der Verlust der gesammelten Seelen. Highlights sind die epischen Bosskämpfe, die anspruchsvoll aber fair sind, sodass sich jeder Sieg wie ein Triumph anfühlt. Das Gameplay wird nur selten durch die Erzählung unterbrochen - stattdessen kann man die Lore des Spiels den Beschreibungen von Gegenständen, kurzen Dialogen mit NPCs, oder der Gestaltung der Welt entnehmen. Diese Fragmente ergeben mit der Zeit eine immer deutlichere Ahnung von der Welt von Dark Souls und dem Sinn der eigenen Bemühungen, die allerdings immer etwas kryptisch und interpretativ bleiben. Durch viele optionale Inhalte und verschiedene Spezialisierungen vom Ritter bis zum Zauberer hat das Spiel einen hohen Wiederspielwert. Dark Souls 3 schafft es ein einzigartiges Spielgefühl zu erschaffen, und verpackt es diesmal so elegant und visuell ansprechend wie keiner seiner Vorgänger. Insgesamt ist es ein anspruchsvolles Action-RPG das Hartnäckigkeit mit Genugtuung belohnt, und anstatt ihn an die Hand zu nehmen, den Spieler auch mal geradewegs in den Abgrund rennen lässt. Expand

    - You will have to back up your save data every now and then because:
    1. No cloud saves.
    2. Hackers/cheaters can get your account banned if you don't know how to avoid them. (I don't think you have to worry much about hackers as long as you back up your save data and don't pick any of the items they drop for you. Also alt+f4 and replace your save data with your back up file if you ever encounter one. I have only encountered one hacker throughout my 100h+ playtime so you really don't need to worry much about it.)
    - I miss how the areas were connected with each other in Dark Souls 1.
    - Poor anti-aliasing. (Not a big issue at 1440p and higher but very noticeable in some places at 1080p)
    - Some few bugs. (Nothing really game breaking tho)

While in Dark Souls II you have a good Power Stance, in Dark Souls III every sword looks like an acrobatic pole. Seriously, just press one button and your character do three backflips, one twist and finish doing burpees. The optimization is also bad in consoles, I noticed that when I reached some areas and I thought I was playing Dark Souls I and trying to rush in Blighttown. And the farming is very broken too. I spent almost 20h farming covenant items (and i didn't complete the farm!), and I was using all discovery boosts avaiable in the game. The DLC's are very good though, with very hard boss fights (I hate you Sister Friede) with a beautiful level design.

Each of the endings are fairly short but give you the feeling of accomplishment. First ending you link the fire, very simple ending and requires no special actions to get. Second ending is the age of dark, one of the more hard endings to get. It requires you do do certain thing with characters in order to get the ending. In the end you become lord of darkness a hollow. And the third and final is simple enough. Requires killing a boss and getting fire keepers eyes(backstory to that if you want to look it up). After you kill lord of cinder you summon the fire keeper and bassicly usher in another age of dark.

On comprend que beaucoup de temps a passé entre le premier épisode et celui-ci et que la puissance du Premier Feu, source de toute vie, se met à faiblir une fois de plus. Mais contrairement à Gwyn qui a tout donné, jusqu'à son âme, pour préserver le Feu, les Seigneurs des Cendres actuels refusent de se sacrifier pour la flamme. Comme dans une ultime malédiction ou tentative désespérée de sauver le monde, une armée de soldats morts au combat, incapables en leur temps de devenir des seigneurs, sort de leurs cercueils et marche à nouveau sur la terre. Ces soldats ressuscités, qu'on appelle les Morteflammes, ne sont animés que d'une seule ambition : voler les âmes des Seigneurs des Cendres afin de raviver le Premier Feu. On incarne alors une de ces MorteFlammes à qui l'on offre une nouvelle chance de sauver le monde.

    Bien entendu, l'histoire et l'univers de Dark Souls 3 sont bien plus riches que ne le laissent à penser ces quelques lignes, mais c'est plus quelque chose que l'on ressent en parcourant les ruines de l'empire déchu de Lothric que quelque chose que l'on peut réellement expliquer ou coucher sur du papier. De la même manière que l'on ressent la puissance symbolique et historique d'une cathédrale tri-centenaire à Lisbonne, tous les lieux que l'on traverse au long de l'aventure transpirent un héritage culturel qui nous échappe, mais qui contribue énormément à l'ambiance globale.

    Ces sentiments naissent grâce à l'excellent travail de From Software sur l'architecture de chacun des bâtiments. Les inspirations baroques et gothiques font effet et, même si Dark Souls 3 est loin de tirer le meilleur de la nouvelle génération de console, on note une très nette amélioration dans la modélisation et la finesse des textures. On regrettera cependant que la diversité ne soit pas réellement au rendez-vous puisque l'on passe d'une muraille à un château à une cathédrale, à un palais, le tout entre-coupé de ces (visiblement) indispensables cavernes et autres tombeaux. Même la vallée boréale, qui flatte la rétine de manière inattendue, n'est finalement pas si originale par rapport au tout premier épisode de Dark Souls qui nous proposait de visiter le monde peint d'Ariamis.

    Plus regrettable encore, le monde de Dark Souls 3 est terriblement linéaire. Ce qui faisait la grande force du premier épisode du premier Dark Souls, c'est son level design où toutes les zones se retrouvaient connectés les unes aux autres. Cela faisait naître un sentiment de perdition étonnant chez le joueur tout en ajoutant une cohérence incroyable à ce monde. Petit à petit, le joueur apprenait et comprenait son monde, il se l'appropriait. Dark Souls 2 avait quant à lui une structure en étoile assez décriée où le hub central du jeu permettait de partir sur quatre sentiers distincts et non-reliés, comme si l'on pouvait choisir son niveau.

    Dans Dark Souls 3, c'est la ligne droite. Il est quasiment impossible de bifurquer ou de se perdre et quand bien même on reviendrait en arrière, des portes qui ne s'ouvrent que d'un côté sont là pour vous remettre dans le droit chemin. La difficulté du titre s'en ressent alors directement et tout plaisir d'exploration ou de découverte est alors grandement atténué. On avait également pour habitude de devoir dénicher les passages dérobés et activer des mécanismes en tout genre pour rejoindre l'un des rares Feux de Camp (checkpoint du jeu), mais ça n'est plus du tout le cas désormais. Le nombre de Feux a d'ailleurs été très largement revu à la hausse, si bien que cela entraîne certaines situations curieuses où deux feux se trouvent littéralement à 20 pas les uns des autres. Un aveu de faiblesse dans le level design, à moins que ça ne soit qu'un nouveau présage de la difficulté en baisse dans cet épisode.

    Dark Souls 3 is a great game. I love Souls games and this game did not disappoint me in the least. It isn't my favourite one but It is still amazing none the less and the DLC makes it even better! FromSoftware is freaking awesome at making DLC worth your time and money. I have already clocked over 250 hours in this game and I am still having great fun. The performance is nearly perfect on

    Game is beautiful. DONT BE AFRAID that game is HARD. It is not that hard. If you are fan of RPGs, souls like games always provide very interesting gameplay. if you are fan of fighting with classic warrior or mages. Leveling is interesting. A lot of different kind of weapons and skills. It is easier than Bloodborne in my opinion. Lets separate it to two games Main story and DLC + SecretGame is beautiful.

Leveling is interesting. A lot of different kind of weapons and skills. It is easier than Bloodborne in my opinion. Lets separate it to two games Main story and DLC + Secret Location. In Main story it is really easy. Every boss was killed from 3-4 try (maybe few more, but rarely). And I play as warrior with shield and sword. For mages it would be easier. Main story is interesting and somehow every area is feeling fresh, even secret location. I used phantoms only twice, on twin princes, cos I wanted to try them and on last boss, because one of endings required them, but I am sure that you can do it without them for few trys. DLC on other hand, was a bit repetetive for me. Bosses in DLC was much harder. All of them was with multiple phases and far too much hp (compared to main story). I dont know is it + or -, but most of the enemies may be killed if you exploit environments. There is some charm in looking how to kill this fat enemy, without touching him and runing around him :). Here challenge for sure is not in grind of useless resources (souls are coming by playing the game, never sitting and farming them, line in new games). Gameplay as well is not related with doing repetitive towers and other not interesting activities. Here gameplay is related with fighting challenges, sometimes hard challenges. One advice for some of you. Souls games always missed one important thing for me: map. Some people like finding secret things around map, but I have played with online maps whole game. I have played bloodborne sole exploring... and feeling wasn't more interesting, but in the end of the game I understand that I missed 1 big location and 1 secret location and many more small locations. This is not fun for me, to miss content and to try to understand where to hit to find secret wall (running and hitting walls is boring imo). You are not losing really a lot if you just check what exist in this game and you dont miss secrets. I am happy that I succeed to pass through all secret locations and see them. Otherwise it is very possible that you will just quickly run through game and wondering, why it was that short. And don't be afraid to ask for help :). With phantoms everything is easier. Good luck ashen one. Expand

    A proper Dark Souls sequel unlike Dark Souls 2. Combat is very responsive, feels better than DS2 and heavy weapons feel fantastic. Sorcery and Pyromancy have been nerfed. There's a new FP bar, tied to a new estus flask type, that drains with each use of weapon arts, Sorcery, Pyromancy, and Miracles. Not a fan of the FP bar as it's not a substitute for stamina usage.

Instead, all your spells use both FP and Stamina, which is an incredibly annoying limiter placed upon you. DS3 has an actual story you can piece together. Invasions are fun too. Definitely, a fun Dark Souls experience unlike Dark Souls 2. Expand

    Game for arcadophiles and losers who try to substitute real life achievements with games. This "game" has no plot and has stupid repetitive gameplay

    My first entrance into the Dark Souls series was Dark Souls 3 The Fire Fades Edition. I have about a thousand hours played. Least you know my score is justified. Great title!

    Many will say that this part of the best game in the series about dark souls, but as for me it is not. Well, after 2 parts, it seemed simple, even pumping generous to the player. And already there's a hint of deja vu. In General the game is good, but not better than the previous 2 parts, and especially 1 part.

    A high-quality game without any doubts.

    I've tried to play Dark Souls II once but the game just didn't clicked for me for some reason and I've forget about Dark Souls series for some time. But recently I gave Dark Souls III a chance.

The game won my attention from the very beginning. I enjoyed literally everything about this game. The graphics are amazing and are a huge leap relatively to DS II. I liked the NPC's and bosses not to mention amazing soundtrack which I still listen from time to time.

    I'm giving this game a 10 because it has something that modern games lack nowadays. It makes you think. I'm not talking about the boss fight tactics, no. I'm talking about the message which you can see playing the game. Someone will see the beauty of self-imposed challenges and who knows, maybe they will take more bold challenges in their life knowing that everything is possible if you don't give up and keep trying. Others will see different perspectives on important philosophical questions and probably will take something to their lives.

    Despite an inconsistent frame rate once again hindering the console versions, Dark Souls III is still an undeniable success. Before playing, we felt ready to say goodbye to the series, looking forward to whatever From Software gave us next. Yet after finishing, it's hard not wanting more. Few companies can craft a world so completely enthralling. Whether you've played every entry, started with Bloodborne, or are brand new, this is a game you should absolutely make time for.

    Everything about Dark Souls III is great, but it fails to push the series forward. Bloodborne and both previous Souls squash it in terms of ambition. DkS3 is like a compilation album by your favorite band – you enjoy listening to it because you love these songs despite having heard them so many times before, but there’s no room for even a tiniest surprise.

    It seems that From Software has finally realized that bad game design decisions were a poor addition to an already uncompromising game, and fixed them, while keeping the same level of ruthlessness.
