Dark Souls 3

Just getting around to playing this - I think i'm about 35 hours deep - Best souls game to date...all around a fantastic game, definitely one of the best RPGs I have ever played. I just killed the guy in the Church who has the 2 swords and summons a phantom-self. Anyone who has not played DS3 yet, i suggest you pirate it online and give it a whirl immediately.

My pyromancer is finally becoming an actual caster now since I got the FP reduction ring, some of the more powerful spells, and my mana bar/estus flask pools are becoming large enough to sustain using spells instead of mainly hack n slash. The progression is great, feels like a realistic way of how an actual wizard warrior would power up (IE you start more as a warrior and progress into a caster role as you gain power)

10/10 would/will play again

yeah no shit sherlock, that's what happens when you copy paste environments from previous souls game, you're just lucky as hell that the player base is to stupid to realize it.

TLDR: dark souls souls was the only good souls game.

I've held out on buying this after my PC failed to handle the new Hitman game (0 framerate)

Can you tell me if a Raedon 7400 can run this game decently?

Embarassing card I know.

I am sure it is - I am playing on PC though. I didn't think I would like it on PC since I played the others on console, but the PC version is quite delightful

Like it except the PVP meta is terrible.
Straight swords 1hand everywhere, parry fish for hornet ugs oneshot. Quit after a run-in with some caestus idiot who just walks around not attacking at all, just whiffing l2 parry attempts the entire time. Kept deadangling him to punish it. He runs away to chug, comes back to repeat this. After this went on like three centuries, guy manages to randomly land a parry despite being 90 degrees to my side, and then gets his oneshot hornet ring kill. Riveting. Might go back if they do some balancing.

bought it when it first came out. put it in, RROD'd my 360. Fixed it myself a few months later and tried to play it again. walking around the starting area everythings so dark and I didn't even realize I walked off a cliff and died. stopped playing right there.

After sinking 60+ hours into DS3, I give it a solid 9.5/10. It provides an amazing experience on the first playthrough, maybe my favorite one out of the entire souls franchise. However, it has really shitty replayability and PvP, especially compared to DS2.

THIS guy! Love your post man. I absolutely love DS3. As for PVP, I've had a lot of fun. As for DS2...meh, I liked the game over all but didn't care for it or the PVP portion.

I'm an old school lover of Dark Souls and Demon's Souls. If anyone is reading this and likes Dark souls 1, 2 or 3 and have not experienced Demon's Souls. I highly recommend it. It is the beginning...and, then end.
