I bought since psyched up by all the good reviews but after playing a total amount of 3 hours I gave up Believe this game is REALLY DIFFICULT to play and not only that I will take you some time to master and (if you're willing to spend that amount of time) finish it
Good game, great graphics and gameplay but it just not for me

My son loves this series. It is a fun game, but definitely not for my younger kids. I had fun playing it too, but don't have the time to really get into it.

This game can be hard sometimes but it's fun and very addicting and you could play with three of your friends, so it makes it more fun and a little bit easier.

Maybe I'm finally just getting used to these games, but Dark Souls III seems to be much more user-friendly so far. I'm still dying a lot, but am able to progress a little further every time. In previous DS games, I would get stuck at one enemy (or boss) and struggle for hours.
Anyway, it's great. And if you've always been on the fence about the series, you should start out with this one (and read about the lore for the previous games!).

Be prepared to die a lot. Fun and rewarding to those who have the patients to grind through the maps.

The Dark Souls games have never let me down, and this final installment in the series is no exception. Plus this edition came with a full download of the original and a physical copy of the soundtrack- how could you be disappointed? Oh, unless you don't like difficult games. But hopefully this won't be your first play through a Dark souls game.

Dark Souls 3 seeks to flesh out the story lines of the previous games and give some closure on what really has been going on. Expect to see old characters make a curtain call and discover new favorites in the process. Although I don't like the pvp combat as much as DS2, it is still a great game and worth picking up. See you in the arena

This is my first Dark Souls game so I didn't really know what to expect except that it was hard. It took me about 40 hours to beat the game and then it has an option for a new game plus. I died a lot of times but you can grind levels to get stronger and learn the boss patterns to get better. I would buy if looking for a challenge.

No map, no glowing arrow, no HUD marker, but when you finally find the path, defeat the enemies, foil the ambushes, and figure out the key to defeating the boss, the satisfaction is amazing. Not for the easily frustrated or faint of heart, but for anyone looking for a beautifully designed challenge, this is the game for you.
