I have played Dark Souls since release and I can safely say that it is one of the greatest games I have ever played. It provided me with such a rich and unique gaming experience that other games should strive to replicate. It is not overly difficult as people may say it is, but it can be challenging. However in my experience the challenge is one of the best aspects of the game as a whole. This game has provided with me with an amazing experience I'll not soon forget. It stands to be my favorite game of all time.
Also, the majority of the community of this game across all platforms is the most dedicated and best I have probobly ever seen in my many years of gaming, and thats a major plus when playing this game. So, I highly reccomend this game to all those who have not yet played it or are still on the fence about paying for it. Very worth it. Amazing experience, from an amazing game.
