I hated this game so hard at the start, the levels were beyond horrendous, there was too much DS1 fanservice, too many unpredictable oneshots and the combat felt really spam focus sometimes.

I dont know why i put that in past tense they still are true fire the level design team for the love of god.

But the bosses... the bosses, threre´s no words for it.
The theming, the lore, the soundtrack, the actual gameplay, THE FEELING of these bosses is unmatched, and they keep getting better and better. I can feel my asscheeks crumble with how epic every fight feels, you really feel like you fucked up beyond repair and you are gonna get torn apart into a pixelated pile of flesh. A duel between a old god and the little Scrimbo Blimbo with a tiny lance, the bosses are so good is almost unbeliveable how they cooked so hard.

Hard to admit with how much i sharted this game in the beggining (really really hate the level design and unpredictable oneshots), but it gets really really better in the second half and now I honestly kinda love it, my character The Pope Quandale Dingle XVIII had a ton of fun purging every living thing in line of sight with no reason whatsoever.

Now that i have fully completed all the souls games, there´s a huge void in my chest, man, these games are truly truly something else, wish i could go back to play them again, but just revisiting the memories I have of the good and bullshit moments, honestly, is good enough, what a nice journey.
