Being my first-ever souls game, I guarantee that from all the other games I have played in the past, this game does not hold your hand; and that is okay. In turn, this opened up an experience like no other. Featuring mind-boggling game-level design which will leave you in awe, regular enemies that can easily kill you if you're too greedy or careless and boss battles that are not afraid to leave you in a pit of despair.

The gaming community loathes the sheer difficulty of Dark Souls and I can confirm it is indeed difficult. No other game has ever boiled blood in my veins more than Dark Souls. However, no other game has made me more patient and resilient than Dark Souls. The best feeling in the world is seeing that VICTORY ACHIEVED after seeing countless YOU DIED screens. This game rewards you for thinking smart rather than mindlessly pummeling through hoards of enemies. Continue in the correct mindset, Dark Souls becomes surprisingly easy.

I am honestly glad I played this game. In the past, I have been avoiding this game like the plague just because it is known to be a difficult game to play. Do not make the same mistake as I did and give this game a chance. For sure it will be a challenging journey but I guarantee there is nothing more satisfying than finally beating this game and seeing the credits roll before your eyes.
