    Вторая по легкости игра с максимально посредственными боссами (парочку годных в основной игре и длс), с прохладным кол-во контента и продолжительностью, не особо цепляющий лвл дизайн - даже больше, куча копипасты из первой части и Demon Souls. Из плюсов игра стала более подвижная.

    While Dark Souls 3's plot, locations, and atmosphere are all essentially a nostalgia trip for Dark Souls 1 fans, interestingly not much of the original game's DNA is here otherwise. Whereas DS1 was about exploration and nonlinearity, DS3 is very linear in level design and progression. DS1's gameplay loop was in managing resources as you made your way through a dangerous world, whereasWhile Dark Souls 3's plot, locations, and atmosphere are all essentially a nostalgia trip for Dark Souls 1 fans, interestingly not much of the original game's DNA is here otherwise. Whereas DS1 was about exploration and nonlinearity, DS3 is very linear in level design and progression. DS1's gameplay loop was in managing resources as you made your way through a dangerous world, whereas DS3's levels are merely speedbumps on the way to the reward - an incredibly designed boss. DS1 had clunky but slow paced, deliberate combat. DS3 is a roll spam simulator.

    Overall, this game has turned the franchise into a fast paced action-RPG, instead of a slow-paced exploration RPG with action elements. It is still very good. The boss fights are the best in the game. The lore and NPCs are still great. The ending is satisfying and the music is incredible. But it does really miss a lot of what made the first game brilliant, and trades it for flashiness and accessibility.    … Expand

    So es wird Zeit, dass dieser Review das gleiche widerfährt, dessen Schicksal auch alle anderen guten alten Spiele, oder Resident Evil 3, teilen. Ein REMAKE muss her.

Ich liebe diese Reihe und Dark Souls III gehört zu meinen absoluten Top Spielen, weshalb    So es wird Zeit, dass dieser Review das gleiche widerfährt, dessen Schicksal auch alle anderen guten alten Spiele, oder Resident Evil 3, teilen.

    Jeder kennt es, fast jeder hat es schon einmal gespielt, und viele lieben es. Das "schwerste Spiel aller Zeiten" (aka. Dark Souls). Ich liebe diese Reihe und Dark Souls III gehört zu meinen absoluten Top Spielen, weshalb sich diese Review vielleicht so anhört, wie ein K-Pop Fangirl, dass dir versucht zu erklären warum BTS, die beste Band aller Zeiten ist.

    Im Vergleich mit seinen Vorgängern, hat Dark Souls III, eine etwas schnelleres Kampfsystem und eine wesentlich lineareren Aufbau was für den einen schlecht, für den anderen gut sein kann.

    Die Bosse und ihrer Inszenierungen sind bombastisch und gehören zu der Spitze der Reihe. Die Gebiete sind abwechslungsreich und schön düster gestaltet, was den Reiz am Spiel ebenfalls ausmacht. Der Soundtrack ist wundervoll und es gibt nichts was mehr mitreißender ist, als den Schlägen eines fast besiegten Bosses auszuweichen, während im Hintergrund eine aufbrausende Musik ertönt.

    Das Kampfsystem ist grandios, denn nicht umsonst ist es der Maßstab für gute RPG Kämpfe.

    Die DLCs sind auch empfehlenswert, wobei mich vor allem das zweite, sehr gepackt hat und mir endlos viele Stunden meines Lebens beim bekämpfen eines bestimmten Drachen genommen hat.

    Beim erneuten Durchspielen entdeckst du immer wieder neue Gebiete und durch seine verschiedenen Klassen und Spielweisen, wird es auch nach dem 8ten Run, nicht langweilig

    Also zum Abschluss, grandioses Spiel, grandiose Reihe.

    DARK SOULS 3 is a pretty good game
    i have played elden ring sekiro and bloodborne prior to this and i still think they ae better than dark souls 3. The game itself is fluid with amazing boss battles and interesting characters, i was able to feel immersed in the story although it is confusing. I think this game can be recommended to poeple wanting something similar to elden ring and like the combat style. Some flaws in the game in my opinion is that it often feels very frustrating to get past bosses and the late game is really unfair, with even common enemies able to deal a ton of damage. it doesnt feel as strong as elden ring or bloodborne because some of its level design is really boring. The level design makes me feel very burned out and often i find myself feeling very done with the game. I would consider this game to be an 8/10. EDIT SOON
    alright after doing 2 endings and both dlcs, my opinion has changed abit. This game's DLCs are really good and makes up for some of the boring areas in the main game like 2 of the starting areas, but near the end it is really good and the dlcs are memorable and add to the experience. 9/10, what a game!    … Expand

The bosses are cool, the lore is cool, the level design is gritty and dark, and the combat speed was upped, helping it stand above Dark Souls 1 & 2 in terms of replayability years later.

    The best gameplay and boss fights in all the series. The level design sucks, it's just a straight line. Too many references to previous games and the lores is passable. Amazing for Boss Rush and online PvP, surely better than Dark Souls 2 though

    Doesn't reach the same highs or overall quality as the first, but also doesn't fall to the same lows. Some of the best bosses in the series and, as always with FromSoftware games, if the base game is a 10, the DLC is an 11.

    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.
