Dark Souls is an action role-playing game developed by FromSoftware and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. Released in September 2011 as a spiritual sequel to Demon's Souls, it is set in a dark, medieval fantasy world. It is renowned for its challenging gameplay, intricate level design, and deep lore. Players control a customizable character known as the Chosen Undead, embarking on a perilous journey to uncover the secrets of the cursed land of Lordran. Dark Souls is known for its punishing difficulty, requiring players to carefully manage combat, stamina, and resources while navigating hostile environments filled with dangerous enemies and formidable bosses. The game features a unique multiplayer component, allowing players to leave messages for others, summon allies for cooperative play, or invade other players' worlds for PvP combat. The original release of Dark Souls received critical acclaim for its atmospheric world, innovative mechanics, and rewarding gameplay, solidifying its place as a seminal title in the action RPG genre.

A challenge I don't think I would have got through without guidance from others but when I knew what to do what an incredible game. The challenge is enough to question your sanity at times but rewarding enough to make the numerous attempts worth it in the end. For 2011 this game was still fun as hell in 2024, I recommend to any avid gamer, but maybe get the wiki up or have someone who knows what they're doing 😅

buen juego, desafiante, misterioso e interesante. tiene una estética salida de berserk que va evolucionando conforme avanza el juego, lo que también aporta narrativamente.

Una experiencia totalmente unica, el mapeado es de esos que ya no me ha tocado ver mucho y la historia y soundtrack fue magnifica. Sin embargo es un juego que tienes que jugar primero si quieres encariñarte de el.

Gran clasico al que le tengo mucho cariño pero el que dice que este juego no tiene fallas esta mintiendo o no es capaz de ver de manera objetiva el tema. Me sorprendió ver que tan lento sentía el movimiento comparado con juegos nuevos. Después, los boss runs no aportan nada, NADA. Pero a este serie le encanta hacerte correr tres minutos para que maten en 3 segundos. Si hay algo que no se puede negar es que en Dark Souls vos te esforzás para que te rompan el orto, no lo entregas gratis. Menos mal en Elden ring aprendieron, gracias Stake of Marika. Igual ojo, mas allá de las fallas encontré al revisitar este juego el diseño de nivel con su conectividad fue increíble. Sin necesidad de un mapa. Descubrir los secretos de este mundo sigue siendo un gran placer y particularmente la forma de contar la historia tiene me encanta. Aprender el patron de un enemigo sigue siendo algo satisfactorio. Por algo fue iconico, eso no se puede negar. Lastima en stream no me pude detener con tiempo a buscar y leer todo lo que quería y redescubrir este mundo. Fue mas un run a las apuradas salteandome cosas para no hacerla larga. Hay cosas las hago distintas fuera de camara.

Топовая игра, отец всех соулс-лайков (а дед это демон соулс). По геймплею кривая, без геймпада играть анреал. Привыкая все же неплохо, правда жопа будет болеть в первый раз и каждое новое прохождение будет как в первый👍

Игра порой не хочет чтобы в неё играли. Я понимаю, что разработчики хотели в недосказанность не вести игрока за ручку, но реализация такой идеи в первой части очень сомнительная. Откуда игроку знать что в игре есть телепорт между кострами, но для него нужно завалить толстого и тонкого? А что нужно упасть в чёрную дыру, при этом ещё не забыв экировать особенное кольцо падающее с такого-то босса? а в ДЛС как попасть это вообще тихий ужас. Таких моментов в игре куча, и узнать о них можно только от друга или прочитав в вики, что в данном случае является плохим гейм дизайном. Так же вторая половина игры сырая, музыка не запоминающаяся (кроме нескольких треков), проблемы с меню которых не было в demon's souls и нет нормальной настройки D-input геймпадов. Понятно, почему игра в своё время была популярной, но вообще не понятно почему многие считают её лучшей в серии. Для первого знакомства с жанром не рекомендую и жалею что начал с неё. Игра только для опытных соулслайкеров.
