One of the most overrated game I've played.
It was "ok" for me. The gameplay straight up sucks, and feels bad. It mostly relies on easy parries and backstabs.
The exploration and level design is fun though (besides the swamp, man, this + the sh#t gameplay? Nah).
I also enjoyed the boss fights and their soundtrack, so I was expecting too much for the final boss that was complete garbage. All of that "excused" with lore to explain why the final bossfight is garbage and FromSo devotees telling you how much a masterpiece and genius ending that is, while it's just bullsh#t

Only reason I can give DS1 a five is cause the Ornstein and Smough fight is a Saint Seiya Homage.

Game blows otherwise

That's a really cool fact

The cutscene in BB DLC where the protag holds the disc up to the window is another Seiya Homage.

Miyazaki likes cool manga at the least lol.
