My first Souls game. I like hard games, I expected "the hardest game ever made" that isn't for everyone like people say, what I got was another game, a great one, that is challenging and very fair (for the most part), just as most games should be like. Spent 2 months playing DS and it felt like 2 weeks.
There isn't a lot to say that hasn't already been said by other players, except for a few takes so... The second half is overhated, Tomb of Giants is actually decent and better than Catacombs, Blighttown is good, Bed of Chaos isn't the worst boss (but still sucks). That's it, everyone already said what I had to say, just play the damn game
