Combined with the absolutely stunning graphics and fantastic locations and level design, this is definitely my favorite FromSoft game to date. One of my favorite tweaks to the game is that you no longer stand still for large amounts of time while drinking estus, but are able to keep moving. This really helps the game with it's shift to being faster paced. Overall, there aren't many things to criticize in this game, and If you like the souls series or Bloodborne you are in for a treat.… Expand

    Miyazaki came back, and with him, Dark Souls' soul. It's a freaking love letter from From Soft. The essence of Dark Souls 1 with stunning graphics and a faster combat system. Just like the first Dark Souls, but more linear. Though it improves in literally everything else. A real masterpiece.

    Granted, I am reviewing the game from the perspective of a Souls fan, but even non-Soulers are encouraged to take a crack at DS3. The best thing about it, probably, is that it is not Dark Souls 2. It hearkens back to Dark Souls but maintains series classics like impossible-to-follow "quests," the killing of several primary bosses to advance, poison swamp levels and brutal gameplay.Granted, I am reviewing the game from the perspective of a Souls fan, but even non-Soulers are encouraged to take a crack at DS3.

    I bought the game rather tentatively, having never played a Souls game, the challenging nature tempted me but I perceived the game as a medieval fantasy which would not normally interest me. Having now completed the game, I am so glad I tried it, it was incredible all the way through! I would not define the game as a medieval fantasy but instead as a Gothic Underworld masterpiece.

    The Gothic atmosphere and setting is one of the greatest and lasting aspects of the game. I no longer look at a cathedral or church in the same way, I am expecting there to be skeleton dogs and undead creatures around every corner.

    The tension in the game is immense, when you get past a tough enemy and enter a new area low on estus with lots of souls you tread very carefully in search of that next glorious bonfire. I loved that tension!

    The boss fights are to be feared and embraced! Most of the bosses and incredibly cool and well designed, the battles really reward a patient and calm playstyle, to get past many of the bosses you must first understand the boss before you can pass. Whilst bosses can certainly be frustrating, the reward for defeating them is euphoria!

    It is worth saying that the story and the lore of DS3 is never clear. This is far from a negative strangely but one of its strongest aspects of the game! The description with each new item, weapon or boss soul contains an extra piece of the jigsaw into the plot, the history and the myth! The jigsaw feels huge and every piece unravels just a little more, it becomes more of a search to unlock the mysteries of this land!

    I found myself enjoying this game in unique ways, it is the only game I have ever supplemented with watching a Let's Play on YouTube. When you defeat a tough boss or area, there is nothing more satisfying to re-live it by watching somebody else struggle. I also have watched videos detailing the lore behind the game and still there is so much mystery you can lose yourself in it.

    What makes this game so great is the depth behind the lore, the bosses, the items and the setting. It has created one of the coolest and richest worlds full of myths, mysteries, awe and dread.

From the get-go this game tells you that it’s going to be fair to you, but also make you want to destroy everything you can in a ten metre radius. But just writing this game off as hard would be doing the genius work a massive disservice. For this game is difficult, punishing and unrelenting for all the right reasons. The bosses all have fast, but predictable move-sets, and the true art of the game is recognising this and using an enemy’s weakness to your advantage. Secrets are also littered all throughout the depressing world that Dark Souls III takes place in, some rewarding you with unique weapons, others with terrifying beasts that are true pains to defeat, and even entire levels ripe with enemies and unique bosses are held as secrets.. I love that they incorporated some of the speed from Bloodborne into the game, although not as much. It shows in the enemies, some of which are incredibly fast, requiring you to dodge, parry and fat-roll to even stand a chance. The sheer number of weapons also never fails to astound me, as even in very specific groups such as Great-Hammers, there are still plenty of weapons there. Every build, from a swift person who wears rags and jumps around with a dagger, to a fat tank that takes very little damage from anything, but dishes out a giant amount, is viable, although some might be better suited other situations. But, alas, in a game that puts such and emphasis on bosses, just one boss fight can drag the game down quickly. And I found this out with the penultimate boss, who was an absolute annoyance to fight. But one thing that this game does miles better than anything else on the market, is the music. The melancholy soundtrack is based around a choir and stringed instruments, while some scores experiment with brass and bells. Even from the main screen, you understand very clearly that the game is going to posses an amazing soundtrack, and Dark Souls III doesn’t disappoint in this front at all. In fact, I’d go as far to say this is the greatest soundtrack to emerge out of gaming. Yes, I said it, and it’s not meant to be exaggeration. I mean it. The graphics are up next, and I can’t help but say this game looks quite nice. The backdrops of some locations can just look drop-dead gorgeous, while some things are just not pleasant to the eyes whatsoever. The colour scheme is also sadly limited to, for eighty percent of the game’s length, grey, brown, black, red and yellow. And, yes, I acknowledge the fact that this is meant to symbolise the atmosphere of gloom and dread, and it does make other locations stand out, but the abstinence of another less other than its pallet can drag down the experience. The lore in this game, and really in any modern From Software RPG, is cryptic at best, and hard to understand, but the main premise that you, the Ashen One, must kill all Lords of Cinder to keep a fire alight, prolonging the Age of Fire, and keeping the world from becoming darker than it already is. As with bugs, I’ve encountered none, except one extremely frustrating crash, in one of the most loathed areas in the entire series, that deleted not only the character I was playing as, but also every single other character. Aside from these gripes, Dark Souls III will not be forgotten by me for years to come. Its fast paced combat, that includes hundreds of various weapons and shields, its unforgettable bosses that made me run around the house like a madman and its incredible approach to level design. This is the end of the Souls series, and what better way to end a series than making a masterpiece?… Expand

Great integrated pvp and pve system, Bosses that won’t let you give up until you slaughter them.

    Cons: Will be VERY difficult for beginners new to the Dark Souls franchise, endgame is PVP, a few bugs and glitches every here and there.

    Dark souls 3 is hands down FromSofts best creation in the souls series stretching all the way from 2009’s Demon Souls. So first things first this game is $60 and I think this is a fair price because of all the content that comes with the game and that will be coming for the DLC (Downloadable Content) . As soon as you step into the world of this game you’ll be able to make a character of your choosing such as attributes,what class,starting items, and what you look like. After that the tale begins of the Ashen One's journey to link the flame. You start off very simply until you journey to the next area where all the detail and hard work from the last 2 years has shone into this game. You can see the sun shining through the broken rocks and reflecting off the water. After over 1000 hours of playing this game I still can’t get enough of how beautiful each and every area of this game is. And if people find this game is too difficult they can always play with their friends which has been a traditional feature in all the soul games, or if their feeling evil they can go invade someone else’s world and show them what dark souls really means.

    If you're still not interested I have a lot left to convince you why this game is worth your time. The tutorial of this game in not easy and it’s not meant to be either, the game wants you to keep dying to the boss and the mobs to prepare you for what lies ahead in the world. Unfortunately this makes a lot of players quit the game and make them feel like they’ve been scammed only after they’ve been a few times. This game has so much value that people don’t discover because they just give up. When you do get past the first boss you start to tie into the main plot of the game and why you were chosen to link the first flame. Lotric which is the main city in the game has dungeons and enemies everywhere to make it a challenge. For the game, mechanics are very simple the game has messages lying around telling you what every button does. Now the cherry on the top of the game revolves around the bosses I’m not gonna spoil anything because I want people to experience it for themselves.

    The game also runs very well at a constant 60 frames per second everywhere you go.
    I don’t have much else to say about this game without spoiling it. If you do decide to get this game you should keep going until the very end and try not to summon other players unless it get’s very difficult. Overall if you do keep keep this game in get discouraged because you keep failing you’ll never get the true value of this game which is the shining star.    … Expand

Unlike with Bloodborne, there are memorable bosses and a deep variety of ways to play that keeps the game fresh for multiple play throughs. It's the total package with improvements in graphics and even grander level designs. Dark souls III is my favourite souls game. Period.

    Out of all of the games that I have played, Dark Souls III has proven to be the only one to offer bosses that I find near impossible to defeat yet also do so without creating a sense of frustration. These bosses are never unbeatable, never unfairly balanced. They simply require a greater level of skill, concentration and memorization than those in other games. The same can said about theOut of all of the games that I have played, Dark Souls III has proven to be the only one to offer bosses that I find near impossible to defeat yet also do so without creating a sense of frustration. These bosses are never unbeatable, never unfairly balanced. They simply require a greater level of skill, concentration and memorization than those in other games. The same can said about the enemies, as the easy enemies that can be killed in one shot that seem to be ever present in other games are hereby lacking. Instead, all of the enemies in Dark Souls offer a unique experience that the player needs to adapt to as quickly as possible in order to advance.

    Additionally, the game innovates on features from other games in a very unique way, albeit in a very similar way to the innovation found in the original Dark Souls. Instead of the random health regeneration found in other games, the player is placed with the responsibility of choosing the best time to use up the valuable estus flasks (this game's version of a health pack) that are in quite limited supply that increases as you advance in the game in order to stop it from becoming unfair. This, combined with the unbelievable variety of weapons, outfits and rings, allows for a combat experience that can't be found anywhere else. This is further enhanced by the great enemy AI but I will admit that the AI can sometimes prove to be rather idiotic, even if only in limited circumstances.

    The game's graphics are fantastic, simply a gem to look at, and the audio matches the game tone in a perfect way. The story is far from straight forward and will probably require you to read through pages of item descriptions and character dialogue in order to understand all of its complexities but the basic plot is quite easy to follow if you aren't too interested in the backstory. Some of the game's only problems are found in its sometimes complex level design. i have to say that it took me quite some time to figure out where to go in the swamp level. Also, some of the game's side-bosses can be quite hard to find without a walkthrough but I found that these problems rarely subtracted from the game's overall quality.

    In conclusion, after beating the game twice after 80 hours ( last year) I would strongly recommend this game to anyone looking for the game that is a bit more of a challenge with fluid combat. Thanks for reading. :)    … Expand

But there's a great community filled with guides if you're stuck. Plus you can use NPCs or team up with online players (I never actually needed this, but it’s a great option to have if you’re really over that one boss who keeps bludgeoning you)
    --Rewarding. It’s redolent to how you felt when you overcame fights and bosses as a kid - that feeling of accomplishment when you finally won.
    --Always new secrets to find - read up on this game. From the lore, to the illusory walls, to the hidden areas and character side quests. It’s got a lot of depth.
    --Pace is great. I never felt stuck in the same area for too long because I couldn’t progress
    --Great dialogue and voice acting
    --Open world with lots to explore
    --Easy instant travel from Bonfires
    --Above all, it’s innovative. It’s actually genre-defining. It’s something everyone should try at least once to see if FromSoft games are for you

    Dark Souls 3 complete and get to the end of the Souls saga story, and i have to say, how it is so similar do the first one, like do almost the exact same thing, but it's incredible how it doesn't feel repetitious at all.

This happens because of the hole amount of variety that it give to us, in every aspect. If you enjoyed the first one, you will also with this.
    I loved how they like to tell the stories/lore here, they don't just thorw in your face for you to watch and listen, you need to go for it and put the pieces together. They did put a bunch of explanations about bosses, group of people and npc's stories in the description of their itens, like in armors or spells that when you gather you have a piece of the lore. They also did this with talking with npc's wich are pretty much all optional, so you really need to go after it if you want to understand.
    They did added phases and powers for various weapons, very much like bloodborne, they have different abillities that could be with lightining, sorcery and others, you can use those pressing L2 and gonna consume your blue bar, wich was another addiction, that maked sense, then you can't use thoose powers all the time and get to overpower. Another adding was the bosses different phases, when you get their life to the half, most of them does transform or start using different type of powers, that's great, because it gives to the battle more diversity and makes you change your move set.
    The places are all formidable, the universe building is fantastic, you can see that they did have fondness to do it, are all pretty different, one place to another, the enemies change, the places still all connected and you will always be finding shortcuts, is beautiful how they did it once again. there is one specific place that if you played the others, i swear that you gonna feel a nostalgia in a great way, how they did reconstructed the place but now destroyed, damn, when you see that coming is just fantastic, it's perfect.
    Another thing that we have in here, is that are a bunch of optional places with bosses to go, places that for you to go, is needed to pay attention in what you have and what the place say to you, kind like the doll in the first one.
    To not say that i didn't say one bad thing about the movie, they did removed the cut the tail, before you always caught some weapon doing this, in this one, for some reason, the took it off, and personally, i tough that was pretty cool.
    It was improved the online even more, now we have the possibility to put keys in our games, and then when the friend put the sign on the ground it will automatically show to the other person, and then you will be able to play, this is great. They did put one place that even after you kill the boss of the area you are still able to be invaded and summon people, for pvp, this is another great idea that they did had, because now you don't have to start a new journey, if you don't want to, to play pvp.
    The gameplay is pretty much just like the first one, not fast as bloodborne, but it works, you can get used to easily.
    The customization for faces and stuff like that still simple, but inside the world is fantastic, there is a numerous quantity of armours, and here, different than the others, it doesn't make a lot of difference once that you are using something, wich is great, because then when you go online, each person is different, is using some different armour, different than the first one when everybody used that giant stuff, in dark souls 3 you will use the one that is more stylish for you.
    So basically the game is insanely great, you will have fun, difficulty and will be entretained for a bunch of hours. But if you played the first one and for some reason disliked it, i don't think that you will enjoy this one. But if you did so, no question, just play it.    … Expand

    A masterpiece
    The main criticism of Dark Souls III is that its world isn't as encapsulating and flexible as past Soulsborne games. Apart from a handful of branches that lead to dead-ends, the path is laid before you in a rather straightforward manner. While the environments aren't lifted straight from past Souls games, they go through the gamut of washed-out castles, temples, forests, and    A masterpiece

On a better front, if the sky for the final boss fight isn't an homage to the Berserk manga (I would link a picture, but I don't want to ruin anything), I don't know what is.

Desde el inicio hay que ir con cuidado para no morir aunque si morimos no hay problema este es un juego de probar nuevas maneras de afrontar el reto como en las anteriores entregas.

    La ambientación y diseño de niveles vuelve a ser importante y se corrigieron errores cometidos en la segunda entrega. Hay gran cantidad de enemigos y todos son diferentes y agresivos pero tendremos una gran variedad de escudos para protegernos y armas que podremos mejorar bastante y de diferentes maneras para que las adecuemos según creamos que sea lo mejor para derrotar a tal enemigo. Adicionalmente obtendremos hechizos y piromancias que básicamente lo resumo en magia estos se obtienen de diferentes maneras los mas fáciles son de pago con almas dentro del juego pero serán los mas básicos, al final de cuentas esto hará los combates muy divertidos y variados.

    Algo que hace especial a este juego es que desde que encontremos nuestro primer ítem nos revelara partes de la historia del juego como un gigantesco rompecabezas, ya que la misma se narra atreves de los NPC´s que nos encontremos en el camino las pocas cinematicas y los ítems así que aquí todo es importante.

    En resumen tenemos un juego solido con grandes combates finales, gran historia y ambientación, divertido a mas no poder, y con componentes online que mejoran al original ya que podremos encontrar a nuestros amigos de una manera mas fácil y como siempre podemos ayudar a jugadores que ni siquiera conocemos o podremos estropearle la aventura a otros jugadores invadiéndolos y estropeando su avance, esto se escucha sencillo pero hay unos "PACTOS" que haremos dentro del juego con NPC´s que nos darán recompensas según lo que decidamos hacer o ayudar o eliminar a la persona online.

    Many have tried to duplicate the formula and many have failed and many game companies will continue to fail. When some one says "It's like Dark Souls " My response always . .. Nah probably not. I have put close to 400 hours into this game.

    One of the best Games known to mankind.
    From Software is a safe heaven for the Gaming community.
    Especially in times where big Developers dissapiont us with theyr fraudulent intent.
    Praise the sun!

    In my opinion, Dark Souls III is the best Dark Souls in the series. The gameplay feels a lot smoother than the other games and the boss design is top tier. The level design is also amazing. The environments are beautiful to look at. There isn't much to say other than it's a masterpiece. Some gripes I have with the game are some of the visuals. Areas far in the distance look really blurryIn my opinion, Dark Souls III is the best Dark Souls in the series. The gameplay feels a lot smoother than the other games and the boss design is top tier.

    Dark Souls 3 is literally the most underrated game ever, rather than the embarrassment to gaming that was Dark Souls 2, this game is a redemption to the terrible sequel to the Dark Souls masterpiece. Must Play!

    After Bloodborne i had to get more. I bought Dark Souls 3 for 9.99 euro's at the ps store. The bargin of the Century. Bloodborne is better but i've played more Ds3 157 hours that's not including the dlc. Beatiful lore and facinating story From software had done it again!

    My most favorite FromSoftware game so far. A lot of cool-looking bosses with great difficulty (definitely harder than any bosses from any other FromSoftware games), various armor sets and weapons, great PvP system,...

    JUEGAZO en todos los aspectos, bosses y enemigos impresionantes lo único reprochable fue el final, tal vez le faltó justamente un poco de "alma" ya que es el final de la saga pero es algo que no te quita la experiencia de juego para nada. Sublime

    Dark Souls 3 is a masterpiece. The fascinating story, the challenging but accessible gameplay, and the setting are all of what makes this game amazing. Multiplayer is also very fun! Overall, one of my favorite games!

    Dark Souls III rarely innovates, but it experiments within the Souls parameters to grotesque and glorious effect. Another Game of The Year contender, then. [June 2016, p.81]

    Dark Souls III is all-consuming, it’ll drive you up the wall, and the sense of accomplishment you’ll get when everything clicks and you go on to finish that final boss... well, it’s simply beyond compare [June 2016, p70]

    The best Dark Souls game to pick up right now, and a fitting finale for the series. [May 2016, p.58]
