Logically, the best Souls game ever BUT not my personal favourite. The world-building is masterful, ofc due to George RR Martin participating. Its ideological and moral themes are actually beautifully constructed, probably due to it's subtle rhetorical questions to us, the character.

Of course, it has the best boss fights in the series on an objective level, but it definitely had some problems with difficulty sometimes.

OVERALL FUCKING FANTASTIC GAME.
