Dark Souls Review (GameXplain)

GameXplain.com writes, "Prepare to die. This is the slogan that From Software chose to use in their latest game, Dark Souls. However, prepare to die is the nice way of putting it. In reality you should prepare to be murdered, assassinated, drowned, burned, eaten, poisoned, cursed, mauled…you get the idea. There seems to be no limit to the ways that From Software has imagined to kill players, and I love every single grueling moment of it."

I liked the first one...hopefully this is as good

This game is good...I did wish it would have stayed exclusive to one console since me and my friends are on opposite sides of the console war (I have all the consoles but I am a sony guy). I am level 50 right now and I can honestly say that I have died at least 100 times in that game....I lost 40K souls last night....pissed me the heck off but I love this game...a definite upgrade to demon Souls.

That's just selfish. Everyone should be allowed to play this great game.

Demon's Souls was my favorite game of this generation. Now Dark Souls is. Dark Souls is an improvement in just about every way. Epic.

This game is brilliant.

The scope of this game surpasses Demon's Souls, but some of the ambition got ahead of itself a little bit.

The open world "castlevania" design is brilliant and the combat is just as satisfying as the Demon's Souls.

Demon's Souls is just a bit smoother all the way around BUT more simple. Simple in online play and mechanics.

I will probably give the nod to Dark Souls over Demon's...wait...ugh...I mean...the other way around...I ugh..shoot. It really is a toss up. Together they are tied for my number 1 games of the generation.

Other than Gears 3, this is my favorite game this year. Totally worth the praise and our money.

Like it or not, its time to admit Dark Souls is a horror game

Before Elden Ring and Bloodborne, FromSoftware's talents for all things creepy and chilling gave Dark Souls an atmosphere unlike any other.

This feels like the epitome of a 'tepid take'. Dark Souls has always worn its gothic horror influences on its sleeve, it isn't exactly subtle.

"Like it or not its time to agree with me"

DarXyde208d ago

Dark fantasy, I'd say.

Horror is a bit much. Bloodborne is closer to horror.

gold_drake208d ago

mh ur right actually.

dark souls plays around with horror themes without being a straight "horror" game.

bloodborn definitely starts out as that haha.
