    It would be foolish of us to pretend that Dark Souls is a game for everyone. It's perfect at what it does, but a big part of what it does is make you suffer for your mistakes. It is a harsh, uncompromising task master and you will have to work to win its approval, because it certainly won't work to win yours. [Dec 2011, p74]

    At the end of the day Dark Souls succeeds in producing a game that is both incredibly challenging and fair.

    All in all, Dark Souls is a more difficult, but less enjoyable (and less accessible) Demon's Souls.
