Dark Souls 3
Dark Souls is a game I both love & hate because as fun as this game is, it's really hard and you are constantly dying over and over but at the same time I love the art and outfits inside it .

Excellent game
This is an excellent game, with beautiful graphics. It is VERY hard. And that's part of playing through Dark Souls. So if you're up for a challenge, definitely pick this game up!

Yeah, so I was not prepared for this...
This is my first souls game... In fact I recently just got back into gaming altogether. I was trying to get some fun games to play as a returning gamer. This one looked intriguing. So I picked up a copy and have barely touched the other half dozen or so games I bought. The other games, all great titles, and honestly lots of fun, spend most of their time gathering dust while I attempt to grind through this beast. I want to play other games, I just can't put this down. It is freaking me out. The game is beautiful and captivating from the get-go. It is designed incredibly. The level of detail and thought put into the world and systems is impressive. The combat mechanics are amazing. The music is beautiful. But wow, it can definitely be difficult, at least for me as a new player. I was not prepared for the "prepare to die" tagline to be such an understatement. But it is totally worth playing, and it IS fair, even though sometimes it does not feel that way. At this point, I almost always know exactly why I died, what I did wrong (which can sometimes be one misstep), and what I need to try to get through the next time. I will say that the feeling of accomplishment you get when taking down a boss, or successfully getting through a tough area, is incredible. The developers and the game itself do no hand-holding. Online message boards and videos have been necessary for me at many parts, not just with difficult spots or bosses, but with the lore and character development. There is a whole "souls" world out there, and the community is really great for the most part. Dark Souls will haunt you. It requires so much from you... patience, strategy, critical thinking, creativity, your constant attention... but the payoffs are huge. If you want a challenge, and a game that is as much a blast as it is beautiful and deadly, pick a copy up. If your new like me, just be prepared to be humbled.
