    Frustrating, bare bone game without any real motivation for player to finish it. For me its the worst souls clone that I ever played and I am a long fan of this type of games. Avoid like plague. No world to explore, no level up, no mobs to fight...nothing. This its a lame shameful act to extort money form unaware players. Developer go and do something else you got no real qualities to makeFrustrating, bare bone game without any real motivation for player to finish it.

    Devs probably thought that chopping spongy bosses with toothpick over and over is fun. Skills are joke (at least at the beginning) and absolutely irrelevant as the damage output is ridiculously small. You cannot dash through bosses and get stuck easily. Avoid this rubish.

    Return to the world of Eldest Souls with the Depths of the Forgotten DLC, a worthy continuation of a good, sometimes great, boss rush Souls-like hybrid.

    The word that describes Eldest Souls best is: painful. The promising core gameplay is buried under a ton of flaws. Horrible controls, a boring story and a non-existent learning curve make it so that not even souls-veterans will like this game.

    You want an experience that is so difficult, but rewarding, that it keeps you coming back for more. Eldest Souls fits the bill, but because it focuses on just boss-rushing, it feels more like a lite version that is still just as fun to play. It’s great for those who know what they’re signing up for and are okay with a more minimalistic, if not frustrating approach to a brutal genre.
