Dark Souls Reviews

Dark Souls is a neat, die-hard and time-consuming game – aside from its predecessor the only one of its kind. This game is not for everyone – that's not a flaw, but a virtue.

Dark Souls is a game for many hours and one of the most intriguing journeys this year. But unlike most games, it's not a trip to a lovely holiday resort where all your whishes come true. On the contrary - From Software's game doesn't want for you to get to know it. But after some hard work and battling all the odds you get to the end. And then you know: it's an experience that will stay in your memory for a long time.

Desde que juegue este juego la pija me creció unos 20 centímetros a si que tengo unos 20,5 centímetros de verga, por el lado del juego es muy bueno y divertido, el mejor de la historia

el mejor juego de la historia ojalá poder volver a jugarlo de vuelta y sentirme igual q en ese momento <\3

On a deeper level, Dark Souls' audacity at shoving you into an adventure, giving you a colossal world to explore, and forcing you to earn every speck of progress is downright exhilarating.

I expect Dark Souls will sell more copies than its predecessor, but I'm sure many won't know what to make of this curious title. It harkens back to the days when our parents bought us a game and we played it all summer.

Dark Souls is a epic adventure-RPG for hardcore gamers. This game is hard, sometimes a little bit frustrating. But, when you do make it and kill a boss it gives you such satisfaction that no other game can give you. With some fantastic online options, atmospheric worlds, haunting game concepts and mechanics and an unconventional control scheme, Dark Souls is a little jewel.

Extreme difficulty, online interaction and totally absorbing atmosphere – you will hate and love Dark Souls to death but you will not be able to quit...for a very long time. [Nov 2011]

Hard is hard. Though greatly satisfying at times, Dark Souls consists of many hours of pure frustration.

Does anyone know how to wear a hippo? No, didn't think so. If you can't play this game you can't wear hippos and I love this game. (Help, I'm stuck under a hippo)

disgustingly overrated. the movement is clunky, the bosses are bad, the second half of the game (and some part of the first half) is bad, build variety is limited, weapons and spells are unbalanced.

Out of all three Dark Souls games, the original is the worst. It has the worst game design, worst mechanics, worst bosses and is by far the most tedious. Having said that, it is still a good game worth your time.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

Absolutely horrendous frame rate. Some areas are borderline unplayable. Such a disgrace coming from the spiritual successor of Demons Souls. Not sure how this game is rated so high
